Wood Sawing

rusty6 · Mar 31, 2018

Another wood sawing video but this time old Roosty6 is on the other side of the camera. I showed up there about the 3:08 mark to make myself useful. Although if you look close you will see I have my chest harness Gopro on. My nephew put this video together.

That was a Sawstop wasn't it.

I've got a "buck saw" that mounted on the back of my 9N. Dangerous as he!! if you not observant every second while using it! Daddy put it on there one time years ago for lopping up firewood. Didn't stay on long. It's in the barn.

It appears that you are missing part of your buzz saw. All of the ones that I have are equipped with a table that holds the wood while the operator pushes the wood through the saw. Much safer than having hands so close to the saw blade. Sharpen the saw before you use it next time and it will saw a lot easier and faster.

It looks like you have a nice bunch of helpers and you are really making a good pile of wood. It looks like we may need it with the cool spring that we experiencing. Happy Easter everyone!

No, nothing missing from these saws. I've seen pictures of the tilting tables but in 50+ years of wood sawing and helping I have never worked with one or seen anyone injured. Of course there is risk as in any power tool or farm equipment.
The story on the saw blade being dull was that it hit a piece of metal within the first few minutes of cutting. Apparently there was a bullet lodged in one of the logs and by pure chance it was right where the saw cut. Target practice I guess. What are the chances?

We had a saw mounted on the front of a Farmall M. It had a table that the wood rode in to the blade, worked good, don't miss it, ears still ringing.

We had one mounted on the front of a B John Deere and run with a flat belt. We would hook a dump wagon on the back and drive it around in the woodlot cutting up branches and tossing the wood in the wagon. You had to be coordinated with the other guy when cutting the big stuff or it would bind and the belt would slide off due to the extra load put on it. I have one that someone made to fit on the snap coupler of a CA Allis Chalmers. It has a swinging cradle so one person can operate it and it won't bind.

Found a pic of the CA and saw, the belt is not on in the pic.

What is inside the building running that.

Once again, the buzzsaw gets kicked as a man killing super dangerous piece of equipment. It's no more dangerous, probably less so in fact, than a chainsaw.

It’s only as the person running it.
