Steve,
Even though I appreciate you wanting permission to copy the bullhook, I don't own rights to the design...so go ahead!
Besides there would be some old time loggers that would be turning over in their graves or haunting me in the woods if I tried to take any "credit" for my design!
Some guys use heavy pipe instead of solid rod. I prefer rod, because I have had tools made out of pipe where the pipe wall has torn out on me and the tool needed to be fixed or replace.
Also, the hooks are ones that attach to the ends of log-chains. I just pulled the pins on them, ground down each end or the rod so that it would slide up into the bottom "fork" of the hook, which give more surfaces to weld together.
For fun I'll have to post a pic of a "real" bullhook...you know, for hooking the ring on a bull, from outside the boxstall or over the fence?...anybody what to fetch a bull without one? haha
