Nice demo. Thanks for emphasizing not using a cheater bar.
Used a 2,000 lb come-along and 1/2" wire rope to to hold my jacked-up late 1800's 2-car garage while I was re-building a foundation wall. It also moved the garage wall one foot to align it over the newly constructed foundation.
Glad you enjoyed the video. It’s amazing what the come along can do!

Around the farm I have four come a longs. A one ton, two two tons and a four ton. It's rare for me to use a rope but if you're carrying the puller in a car for field use then a rope would be lighter. I use chains. One short one for connecting the puller to structure like the base of a large tree and twenty I've foot chains for distance. Normally although I use the puller for many things for me it's the best cheap tool to pull up trees. You need a puller (my four ton) a small chain to strap the puller to the base of a secure tree. Chain to reach a tree I want to pull up and most trees can be pulled up when they are two foot or less in diameter. You'll also need a wide pick axe and a shovel. Use the axe to chop all the major feeder roots around the tree and you may need to dig down a little to find the main feeder roots. Then wrap a chain as high up as you can reach on the tree trunk hooking the puller to the chain with as little slack as possible. Start working the puller and the tree should start to lean toward the puller. If you cut enough roots the weight of the tree will help you pull it over. If it won't budge chop out more roots and keep pulling until the tree begins to fall over. Make sure you have a clear path to run to the side to avoid the tree although in my experience they tend to pull out and fall over slowly. After it's down you can continue pulling it until the root ball comes out of the ground. Now no stump to deal with. Pines are even easier. Just work the same way chopping the feeder roots. Now pull until the tree is bowed as much as you can get it without damaging your puller. Dig a hole next to the back side of the tree until you can just get below the root ball. Take your pick axe and strike the tap root just below the root ball. It should snap off cleanly with the tree falling over along with the root ball leaving the remainder of the tap root a foot or so below the ground surface. I've cleared may trees this way in my younger years but now in my 70's I keep a large case backhoe around the farm and simply dig up trees and push them over with the hoe. It's really the same technique. You break the feeder roots by digging around the tree and then push it over with the hoe.
Well you might just have everything 🤣 Looks like a handy tool. Keep the vids on tools I need coming👍🏻👍🏻-TOA
Well I don’t know about everything but definitely a bunch.

I've used a Maasdam puller for several years. I use a 150' rope without a hook end, I either tie a loop or use a dogbone knot tool. To get better leverage use a fishing pole to cast over a limb, tie your rope to the fishing line and retrieve it around the tree, loop it, pull it tight and you have a high pulling point.
Ralph, I’ve had several viewers tell me they removed the hook and used another option for securing the device. Had to look up what a dog bone knot was but that is definitely a good one,
I believe some people call it a soft shackle.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
I see the advantage of a 100 foot pull and the ability to take slack out by pulling the line through the ratchet. However my come along with the line doubled can pull 4000#
Peter every tool has it maximum pulling power. Choose your tool for the task at hand.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCt
I never knew how many tools I'd never heard of and now, can't live without before i started watching your channel. Next I'll need a bigger garage. Thank you for all of the new ideas
Dick there are definitely a lot of tools out there many people haven’t seen.
I’ve been extreamily blessed to have worked in an industry I’m addicted to and passionate about.
I’ll show you the new “garage stretching” tool to get you more room😂😂😂
Thanks for watching and commenting, I’ll be talking with you soon. 👍TCT
Never choke with a strap when you can just as easily basket the same rig. You just halved the strength of the strap and likely will stress the choker as it will slide the strap on the other eye, eventually doing harm to the choker!
Thanks for the tip, I always learn from viewers.
Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
Morning Tony! Definitely a must-have tool for sure. Thanks for the great demo. It's on my list. Cheers and all the best!
GP for a one man operation like yourself this tool is awesome. It has saved me multiple times.
Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
Does the rope wrap around the pulley and take up space. Or does it split the rope back out on the ground?
The rope goes around the drum/pulley and just spools on the ground.
I hope that answers your question.
Thanks for your question and for watching. 👍TCT
Also a comment about the way you use synthetic strap. By chocking it… You typically loose 25% or it a .75 multiplier. By using a basket method, you double the WLL… Why not show, basket, strongest method?
Jean you’re right, there are couple other options like the basket method or the Portable Winch accessor called the a Ropewizer.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Good morning everyone. That looks like something I'm going to add to my woodyard. Something that will stay in the truck. Nothing like replacing my rusty chains. That looks like it will save a lot of time. Keep up the great videos.
You will definitely love this tool. If you could find a bag like the LogOx comes with you could store the puller, rope, carabiners and any other accessories.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Hello, you can use your car, UTV or SUV doesn’t have to be a truck using the rope. Your car can pull faster and easier than comalong tool. You may need to add small snatch block(s) to your tool kit.
Tom you are so right about a snatch block and UTV or truck to pull out a log.
The main purpose I use the Maasdam is tensioning the tree for better control when directional felling. Check out my video today #80 May 28 on the Portable Winch, just another option.
Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍TCT
Cool tool
Yup it truly is a cool and useful tool.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
I liked them until I switched to 12 v winches.just to much physical work for us old folks.my $85 winch pulls 2000 lb,remote control.no pile of rope to store, work smarter not harder.
Oliver I’m glad there are several options when it comes to winches. Each has its Pro’s and Con’s but I’m glad we can make a choice as to which one works best for each individual.
Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
"Any half-inch rope"
Nope. It's designed to be used with a specific type of rope.
You are correct it uses a 3 strand rope.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
I like your videos in general. Well explained and detailed. What I truly think you need to improve is safety. I see you handle a lot of tools. In real situations. But you’re NOT following manufacturers instructions, you’re not following safety regulations, or best practices. I wish you would lead by example. Thank you otherwise.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Someone might of said this already but a big towel to slow a hook flying at you on the rope 😎 ty for a great video. Gonna get one!
Really good point yo bring out when doing any winching to have a towel or blanket to absorb the recoil if rope or chain should snap.
Thanks for watching and commenting,TCT
Like the comment about a cheater bar. I’m not a weak individual and have pushed this tool to its max several times by hand pulling over trees. The rope can and will slip when it starts to reach max capacity in my experience
Mitch I’ve found if the rope gets too dirty it could tend to slip as well if you are maxing out the winch.
Sounds like you know the benefits of the Maasdam Power-R-Pull.
I appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
You need to get an electric winch for your trailer. Even a small one would be enough for your 4 wheeler.
Ha ha I ha several winches, both battery powered and gas by The Portable Winch company. You should check those videos out.
Thanks for your suggestion.👍TCT
Love this tool Tony!!! I have a short rope on mine. After watching your video I think a longer rope is coming for Christmas😁👍Thanks for the video!!!
Mitch a longer rope is beneficial and gives you many options.
The Maasdam is extremely useful tool to have on hand.
Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
I like the Maasdam, but in that case wouldn't it have been a lot easier just to hook a to your trucks trailer ball and drag it out of there in about 10 seconds?
You are 100% right, I was just giving a demonstration of what it could do.
When I have to break out this tool that means I can’t use my ATV, truck or tractor and I’m in an unacceptably part of the woods.
Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
Nice job just what I was looking for ! Thanks
Glad you enjoyed the video. It’s an awesome inexpensive piece of equipment.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Hey Tony! Could you test multi pulley block and tackle? Old timers and Amish still use them. I've used small outfits to stretch fence myself! It would maybe save some of that hyper speed motion on the rope puller! Chris will be able to tell you how much better that hyper speed works if you play some banjo or other 'country' stringed instrument at the same time. It's tough being a modern type super hero, believe me, I know!! Not like the old days when you could be a super hero without much fuss! 'Course it was even easier if you were a mild mannered newspaperman!! But a mild mannered firewood chucker with great firewood wealth keeps him under the radar pretty good. Jury's still out on mild mannered tool guys!! So many little details! But you still da' Man!!!
You’re right block and tackle is still very popular out there with the older crowd, Amish and Mennonites.
However many people have switched to gas powered, 12v or battery powered winches for convenience and ease of use.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA....
Nice tool! I did not know this even exist! Pulling the side-by-side onto the trailer is a great example of the benefit of this tool! Whereas the conventional come-along would only pull a few inches until you have to take the excess strap or cable out of the spool. Been there before! Thanks!
Watching your channel I know you would find many benefits with the Maasdam Power Pull. Best part no gas or electric.
I thank you for your and commenting.
By the way I love your ingenious round firewood bundler jig. 👍TCT
Is 100 ft sufficient for pulling down trees or do you sometimes need it to be longer
That all depends, if you have a tree close to use as an anchor point. In 90% of the trees I’ve used the Maasdam puller the 100’ of rope was plenty.
If not I just add additional rope.
Thanks for watching and commenting.👍TCT
Thanks Tony. A new version of an old Tool. (Grip hoist)
Does the Eye of the Strap not fit in the Hook ? The least amount of rigging in the line of pull the better.
You could have reversed the ends of the Puller and just used it as a 2:1 ratcheting pulley
Mike M.
Mike, as you pointed out there are many options with the Maasdam rope puller. Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
Hi Tony, I've had two of them for years. When I was in my teens (aka my gear head years) we used to pull engines with a chain block and tripod. What you are using, we called a come-along. Shalom/gw. PS. Look for a future idea from me that I think will amaze you.
You are right, it’s a rope come along.
And Shalom to you as well.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
@TonysCoolTools Thanks for the Shalom. Folks assume I am Jewish, but I'm not. However, my Lord was once a Jewish carpenter. I have closed with Shalom for decades. It literally asks God to bestow all imaginable peace, blessings, and prosperity upon the recipient. So again, Shalom! ;-))
@@googleboy7 I thought you were an old buddy of mine that always signed off with Shalom and his meaning was similar to yours. TCT
I can definitely see the benefits of having that instead of a come along!! Do they have different weight capacity's? I'll be looking more into them! Stay safe my friend
Tim, based on the rope diameter 1500lbs is the biggest they make that I’m aware of.
Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
I had 2 trees go down in a strong storm. I wanted to save both trees. As they are both mature shade trees. Removal would have been very expensive and replacement would take many years of growth time. On the biggest tree is used several cable winches to get the tree back up. I drove multiple t-posts into the ground for a base anchor. I attached heavy tow straps to the upper tree trunk. By cranking each of the winches gradually I was able to progressively raise the tree back in place. I used a total of 6 winches and 6 straps. The tree is currently supported with 2 straps to keep it as straight as possible to allow the roots to gain strength to hold the tree. Before winching up the trees I aggressively pruned and thinned the branches to lighten the upper weight. Both trees are doing well. Thank you!
Alex that amazing, it's the first time I've heard of a operation like that. It will be interesting to see if the roots grow deep enough to hold the tree up. Let myself and my viewers know how this turns out in the future. Thanks for sharing, watching and commenting, TCT
Really hope to hear that it's worked well, as time goes on! Yes, please keep us updated!
Those are very cool tools! Thank you so much for demonstrating them! I think I’ll be investing in a couple of them. 😊
Patricia, the Massdam Power Puller is an economical piece of equipment to have in your arsenal of tools for your property.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
12:52, FWIW, I think it'd be better to put BOTH blue ends through that carabiner. If you check out hoisting and rigging info, what you have there (and earlier in the video) are called "choker hitches", which are not as strong as a "basket hitch" like if you had the carabiner through both end loops. Also better than the basket hitch is the double wrap basket hitch (assuming you had a strap long enough) where you'd make a second loop around the bars and then use both loop ends to hook into the one carabiner. Anyway, those straps are probably stronger than some of the other hardware and more than sufficient in almost any configuration, but hey. :-) Thanks for the video. I'm probably going to get one of the rope pullers after watching this.
I totally agree with you that the basket hitch is a better way to secure your anchor point.
Glad you enjoyed the video, you will the the Maasdam Power pull.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Great review Tony. It’s a very useful tool that has earned its keep in my tree felling kit. Your Masdaam power puller makes you quite a powerful Influencer
I’m glad you enjoyed the video.
I agree the Maasdam Pow-r-pull has a place in a Woodyard or workshop.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
It's great! It's a lifesaver. I used it on I think 3 narrow but tall trees that got hung up and by the the third one the handle slipped about halfway off. It's just like a plastic sleeve, so I just slipped it back down. I haven't had to use it again since.
Nice tool, I have looked at them for years. It would be handy. Thanks for the video
Larry the Maasdam Puller would definitely be a benefit in your Woodyard.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
This is a great tool! I use it in applications were I cannot get my skidder and winch close enough. Pulled a number of trees leaning out over main roads back to fall the opposite way. Once the tree goes the way you want it to fall it is a good idea to release the holding paw and of course have enough rope and get out of the way, by releasing the paw it allows the rope to freely pully through. I have had instances were I didn't release it and the rope got hung up on another tree and pulled tight causing the tree to swing another direction or it puts alot of stress on the tool breaking it or burning the rope as the force pulls it across the locked drum. Also be mindful if attaching it to a tree that you do not want to damage, use a tree savor or heavy rope instead of a chain in those instances. Definitely a great tool to own for alot of uses. 👍
From your comments it’s not your first rodeo.
All your comments and suggestions are appreciated and I’m sure other viewers also will benefit.
For me practice makes perfect, the more I use it the more applications I find the Maasdam can help me out with.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
@@TonysCoolTools That's for sure, some of the applications I have used it for have required me to get reacquainted with some math I learned a long time ago. Thanks for the kind words and featuring this very useful and Cool Tool.
I’ve used come alongs for all different kinds of applications. May have to look into this one as the steel cables can get funky after a while. Another very informative video. Good work Tony.
Heath you’ll love the Maasdam especially in the woodyard application. I know what you mean about the braided cable getting funky and normally get jabbed. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Super strength puller wencher tool ( rope )
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Why don't you drive it up the ramp😂
ha ha I never said I was the sharpest tool in the shed!😂
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Like most everything else in your garage, that thing is pretty handy. Another good review! Keep them coming!
Mike you won’t believe all the things the Maasdam Power Pull has help me do by myself. It really is worth its weight in gold.
Thanks for watching and commenting!👍TCT
Hi Tony. Another great video. You know I love my Maasdam puller. You saw me use it to pull over that big hickory leaner!
Dick, the Maasdam Puller is a great piece of equipment for the woodyard.
Many viewers were not aware of all the applications this tool has.
That hickory was a great example of directional pulling of a tree.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Cool tool. Glad you showed a couple of real life uses. I'm pulling for your channel Tony!
Tony thanks for all your support with my channel, it really means a lot.
Thanks for watching 👍TCT
Hi Tony. It was nice meeting you at the Paul Bunyan festival. What a great tool. Your channel has been exceptionally wonderful with Christmas just around the corner. I just wait for my husband to show me some neat new tool in one of your videos and order him one. Thanks!
Hi Michelle I’m glad we were able to meet and chit-chat at the show.
Chris from In The Woodyard and I were blown away by how many viewers were at the show and stopped us to say hello. I’m sure whatever tool you get your woodhound husband he’ll be extremely happy with.
Thanks so much for watching and commenting 👍TCT
I am very new to this. When you put the rope around the tree, did you place the rope in the hook or did you actually tie it off? Also, you stated the ATV weighs 2000 pounds and that the unit has a 1500 pound capacity. How is it that you were able to use this to pull the ATV on the trailer? I’m trying to learn the safety rules. Thank you so so much for your time Sir.
Craig regarding the tree I just put the rope around tree and clipped on the hook. Regarding the UTV, though it weighs 2000 I’m not lifting the machine totally all I’m doing is pulling ATV or UTV up a ramp. The weight is considerably less.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
That will make short and safer work
Peter yes it has saved me multiple times out in the field.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Tony, this is a great tool! I had a similar instance a few weeks back when my starter went out on my dump truck. I used a come along and a ratchet strap to get it up there. If they make this with more tons, this would be even more handy for something like that. Great demonstration that has a lot of uses!
I agree Craig, I wish they offered a larger tonnage option on the puller.
Thanks for watching 👍TCT
With the unlimited length of Rope, Just add Pully's to get the Pull strength You need. 2, 3, 4, Etc.
Glad you showed that. I gave up on my cable come-along like yours years ago. Too short of a pull once you get tension on the cable.
Cheers 🇨🇦
Though the braided cable come-along is a very good tool it has limitations. It’s still in my tool arsenal but I don’t use it much since I switched to the Maasdam rope puller. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
hi there another great video and tool . never have enough toys i mean tools . john
Ha ha John, though I have a lot of toys/tool I don’t hold a candle to your workshop. I think that’s what keeps us young and happy!

pulleys, block n tackle.
Larry, thanks for watching and commenting. TCT
Great video.
Cool tool to have when you need it.
Question: Will it work with existing ropes I already own? Example: a 60 m 9 mm braided climbing rope
Jim I not sure. The Maasdam can use either a 3 or 12 strand braided polyester rope. If I were you I’d call Maasdam and ask. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Great tool, though I find the hooks are just too small and so have replaced them with suitably rated soft shackles. Remember that a suitable snatch block will almost double the pull to 1500kg or 3000lb
Chris, the soft shackles are a great idea, I’ll have to pick up a couple in the future and try them.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Hi Tony, great video! I’m up in Alaska and have one of these. I never leave it behind on remote snowmachine trips. It will extract a badly stuck snowmachine without breaking a sweat. I just use 1/2” nylon rope in mine.
Peter my title was initially going to be “A Life Saving Tool” but I didn’t want viewers to think it was click bait.
However people like you in remote location can attest to how important a tool like this is when you’re all alone and need to get out of trouble.
I appreciate you watching and offering your comment. 👍TCT
They are awesome. I have used it from pulling back side leaner trees, to lifting up my 16ft x 14ft high shed walls
Yup you are so right the Maasdam puller is an economical tool that has many applications.
If you watch my next weeks video I’ll be demonstrating the Portable Winch that takes winching to the next level.
Thanks for watching and commenting. TCT
This looks like it will be better than my old cable come-a-long. The steel cable is too short and binds up, especially when I’m trying to initially deploy it.
Ironically I started with the steel cable come along and experienced the same problem of short cable and would not wind on the spool correctly causing ti to jamb up all the time.
Thanks for watching and commenting.TCT
What about rope stretch?
Unlike climbing rope that has stretch the winch rope has very little stretch at all.
Thanks for watching and commenting TCT
Great video Tony very helpful. going to have to get one of these for working in my small wood in Wales UK
You will absolutely love it! Before I upgraded to the gas winch the Maasdam Rope puller got me out of a lot of jambs when I had to pull a tree over or load my UTV on my trailer.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Another good review.. been looking for something better than the come a long so thank you..

Hey Tony , that is a very handy tool . I like the idea of the rope instead of cable !! Thanks for sharing .
Del trust me, you’re gonna love it and knowing you you’ll find more uses then I showed. I appreciate you watching and commenting, 👍TCT
I love that you can use an infinite amount rope. I have a small come along but it has such a short cable that you have to keep re-attaching. Thanks for the video.
Chris, I agree that is a huge advantage with the Maasdam Rope Puller to be able to use unlimited rope.
Appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
I had an oak snap off and get stuck just like your tree, from that same storm. I used my side by side and yanked it down. I ended up cutting 2 face cords from that snag!
Wow that a big limb. I too would have used my UTV or tractor to pull it off.

Hi Tony, I’ve been using them on the farm, but always came up short on length. Love the idea that it can be use with a rope. Very useful. Wish I had that one on the farm. Great information on different applications.
Adrian the come along is great but the Maasdam rope puller has the benefit of the longer rope. As usual thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Thanks, Tony. Considered crappy ones at hardware stores in the past. Just ordered the Masdaan based on your recommendation and link.

A come a long was one of the first tools that I got when I started selling firewood full time. Has came in very useful over the years
Joe you’re right I’ve had a come along for 40 years or more and it definitely a useful tool but has some limitations.
The Massdam Pow-r-pull is a Hugh benefit in the woodyard and directional felling.
Joe I hope you’re feeling better,
Appreciate you watching and commenting, 👍TCT
I have a chain come a long but it has a limit of length you can work with .
Bruce the chain come along is good but heavy and length limitations. As I said the Maasdam is similar and different and also has some limitations so the answer is own both.😂

I was just looking at these this week. A couple of trees need to come down with some assistance. A one man operation here as well and I'm sure this will come in handy for many other jobs. Thanks for the video!

Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
@@TonysCoolTools it's impossible not to watch just to see all the "cool tools"! I have certainly added a few cool tools since you've stated the channel. Thanks for your time and efforts to produce these informative videos!! 👍
You could add a set of compound pulleys to increase the pulling strength and reduce the cranking effort with hard to pull items or heavier items. Only restriction would be the ropes weight rating. Great video.
Jeffrey you are right about adding a double shiv pulley to increase pulling power. I’ll be showing compounded pulling options on a future video. Really appreciate you watching and commenting 👍TCT
The Rope break strength is only between each Pully. The weak link is the 2 Attachment points
I have a 16’ orchard ladder , so much more stable being 3 legs than 4 on uneven ground indeed . Maybe ladder use show idea
Eddie you know the one thing I’m missing and would love to have is an orchard ladder. I agree an orchard ladder is much more stable.
I do however love my little giant ladder system. The legs are wider so it’s more stable but an orchard ladder would help me during apple harvest time.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍TCT
Like your content , watching from Raleigh Durham, North Carolina USA
So all you need is a normal power pull and a 100 ft piece of rope
Michael, the Massdam rope puller is different than a come along. The rope is a triple poly stranded rope that fits into the groves of the pully.

Glad you enjoyed the video. I try to show real world applications not just talk about the tool.
Tools in Action are more impactful.

I work in tree removal. I bought on of these to assist in pulling trees in the direction of fall. The problem with this tool it will loose grip on the rope if slack is interduced in the pull. This is why it sits in the back of my truck and the cable comealongs are used. OK for non critical pulls. Not for felling trees in residential areas.
Alex, thanks for sharing. I’ve not experienced the issue you are talking about yet. Typically all I’m expecting the Massdam puller is to apply tension in the direction I want it to go while I make face and back cuts. It may not woke in every application but it’s gotten me out of trouble a few times.

You're doing it wrong.
I've used it on many trees and never had a problem. Not even close. A couple decades of hanging out on arborist forums, and never heard anyone complain about this.
You're doing it wrong.
@@Migglesworth, How do you think he should do it correctly? You’re just trying to prove someone wrong (especially by saying it twice) and could possibly be helping someone.
👌 Another handy item
Hi Tony, it truly is a handy tool.
