Wood and Small Livestock Sling

Persons with mobility and arm or hand disabilities will find this firewood cart very helpful to move firewood.

Description

Moving wood from the woodpile to the wood stove can be tedious and difficult if you have back, arm, shoulder, and hand disabilities.  A person with these disabilities will find it difficult to carry more than one chunk of wood at a time.  Many wood carriers are made to be carried by hand, with the carrier bouncing off of the carrier’s legs.  A Wood Sling will carry several chunks but will sling over the shoulder.  The wood can also be loaded while in a standing position without the need to bend over. Other workers might find this also useful for carrying small livestock such as lambs or kids.

Workers with common conditions such as these would benefit from a Wood and Small Livestock Sling:  Aging, Arm Amputation, Arthritis, Balance / Core Stability, Cancer, Cerebral Palsy (CP), Diabetes/Diabetic Neuropathy, Fused Vertebrae, Heart Disease, Leg Amputation, Lumbar/Low Back Pain, Mobility Impairment, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Paraplegia, Prosthetic Limb, Replaced Joints (Arthroplasty), Rotator Cuff Injury, Scoliosis-Kyphosis-Lordosis, Shoulder Replacement, Slipped Disc, Spinal Cord Injury, Stroke, Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Vertigo, Osteoarthritis.

About this item

  • 18oz Natural Cotton Canvas
  • ✓ SUPERIOR ERGONOMIC DESIGN – For better balance, posture, and weight distribution while carrying firewood indoors than by hand, carrying bag, or tote. This unique cross-body strap design evenly distributes and balances the weight across your upper body like a messenger bag, causing far less strain on your back, arm, and shoulder, while also facilitating easier loading, unloading, and movement.
  • ✓ SIMPLE TO LOAD AND UNLOAD – Typical firewood carrying bags require a lot of bending over to fill and unload from the ground. The WoodOX Sling allows you to take firewood directly off of your pile, place it into the sling under your arm, and unload it while standing upright.
  • ✓ REDUCES TRIPPING HAZARD – Firewood fits securely under your arm, rather than having a bag full of wood hitting against your legs and household objects as you walk. The WoodOX Sling helps balance your center of gravity, and its low-profile under arm design makes maneuvering indoors much safer and easier.
  • ✓LED FLASHLIGHT BUILT IN – Developed in Vermont with UX in mind, by the same engineer who invented the best-selling LogOX 3-in-1 Forestry MultiTool. This is the only firewood carrier on the market with a built-in replaceable flashlight, to help light your path and woodpile, while keeping your hands free to load firewood and open doors on a cold winter’s night.
  • ★ PATENTED (US, EU, CAN, AUS) – PROUDLY MADE IN USA & GUARANTEED FOR LIFE – Made of heavy duty 18oz natural cotton canvas in rich forest green with a comfortable leather shoulder pad. Listed on the Purdue University based non-profit organization, National AgrAbility Project’s ‘Assistive Technology Database,’ as useful product for anyone with ‘strength, endurance, or back’ related limitations. Length: 38″  Width: 17″ Height: 19″
