Let’s see your Portable Winch projects

Picked up this winch and 300 feet of rope at a garage sale last summer for $75. Then found this parts saw with a broken handle and missing a coil. Picked up a coil on Amazon for $15, and will probably pickup a handle off ebay for $50 but it worked fine with the broken handle pulling this bull out during muzzy season.

Nice find

Used a cheap Amazon drill winch to pull a deer up a tree to skin. Worked great.

2 long Days winching 5x7 out of canyon 3 miles.  Omg sloooow.  Needcsled and bigger pulley.

that’s cool to pull something that far. At any point you didn’t figure it would just be easiier to quarter and get it out faster?

Well I think it depends on age and terrain. At 73 I would rather drag the winch on a sled than huff 30 or 40 extra pounds up hill several times. My old knees don’t like that steep stuff.
