Hitch-Mount Log Holder Best Buy

Hitch-Mount Log Holder Best Buy Jim Ruen, La Crescent, Minn.: “When I write about new products for FARM SHOW, I often wonder whether they’re as good as the company claims. After writing about the Jaw Boss (www.tieboss.com; ph 937-570-4529) in Vol. 50, No. 2, I decided to try it myself and ordered one. “When it arrived, I was impressed by how well thought out the design was and by the quality of the steel. All the parts are sized to fit inside the 2 by 2-in. receiver hitch tube. “Assembly was a snap. Simply install four bolts and slip it into a receiver hitch. I put it on my trusty 2004 Honda ATV and went to work cutting up firewood. “The four steel bars with their sawtooth-like edges dig right in. I loaded them down with a 5-ft. length of 9-in. oak without a problem. The Jaw Boss held the branch firmly while I took my chainsaw to it, without worrying about dulling the chain on dirt and debris. “It holds dimension lumber equally well. At $140, it was definitely a best buy. It likely will pay for itself through reduced chain sharpening and replacement alone. “I have only one concern about the company, and that’s customer service. I left messages on the company’s voicemail and sent emails, but I didn’t receive a response. Given the design and apparent quality, I don’t expect any problems. However, I do appreciate companies that call back or otherwise respond.”
