Bear Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Hi all, Picked this up this weekend. Its hinged on one end with what looks like it was meant to screw into wood? Its solid iron or steel and kinda reminds me of a tinners swege. Heavy( about ten pounds or so). Any Ideas?:confused: Was told by the dealer it was a log dog but it doesnt look like any log dog ive seen or could find on the web.

ThomasPowers Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I've seen log dogs with hinged ends---never one with a screw though. First thing I thought was log dog Thomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easilyconfused Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Could it have just been a metal-on-hand type of repair on a log dog? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryM Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Hello Bear, I think it is a log dog that is use on a saw mill carriage to keep log from rolling. The screw end, was put in hole in deck carriage. then hit with hammer to set in side of the log being sawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
