1 1/4-inch cable...that has to weigh over 2.5 pounds per foot, iirc. I'm sure 3/4 inch is about 1 pound per foot, and 1/2 inch is about half a pound.
Move much cable around by hand, and you'll know it's heavy stuff :).
I have thought so but couldn't say for an absolute. In the scenario as I've used it, the rope or cable is wrapped multiple times around the log to induce roll when the rope/cable is pulled.
It is a similar arrangement, if I have it correct. The rope or cable is wrapped or laid doubled, so that when pulled the cylinder, be it a log, barrel, or whatever, rolls.
I have a bunch of them in various lengths and thickness. All salvaged off of completed logging sites when I was working. Left behind/lost/abandoned as too much work to haul out on your back. Useful items.
