Need a Tool Make a Tool: Log Tongs

I have a few trees that fell into the slough last year, and I need to get them out. I have a tractor to do the pulling, but I need a good way to connect the tractor to the log. Log tongs are the best tool for the job. These tongs are designed so that the harder you pull on them, the tighter the tongs grip.
I will be putting the logs I pull out of the water to good use in my sawmill. If you want to see more on that, I will be posting a video of the first cut over on my facebook page northernforgeblacksmith.
