Is it worth buying a pto saw bench?

[Hotrod81]

bloody hell, hope most of the 17hrs was spent yarning rather than driving

 

Aberdeenshire to Herefordshire and back = 17hrs

I've just purchased a Binderberger WS 700 cradle saw from Marshalls in East Sussex

It's brilliant, you don't need a conveyor for that ammount of wood, just cut it and throw in a trailer or stillage, I've been using a Kidd sliding table saw bench for 15 years but I value my fingers so invested in a much safer machine

:I have just took delivery of a new oxdale and have been using it all day it does go well cuts really quick and much safer than our old mcconnel allwork bench.But it does need a few improvements one of them being an extension welded on the table so its longer so when you cut a log you can push it straight into a bucket easier its a bit slow grabbing it every time.It is super quick when you can keep pushing it over the end.But overall im happy with it for the money £1090 delivered.

Yes it is worth buying a saw bench for speed and safety. Some are better than others but I use a Collino SCM70 and cant fault it. Far stronger than other I looked at and was roughly the same price. Very happy with the machine and the service.

Had the hakki pilke eagle for about a month now and I love it. So much quicker than using a chainsaw. Have to watch your hands when using the splitter though as can grab and spin the log resulting in bruised knuckles.(I was warned about this but had to see for myself ha ha).Have now started splitting the straight grained stuff at 3 foot long and then sawing it. Very happy with the machine and would buy another if the need ever arose again.

Try doing kindling with it. video it though glad your happy with it.

 

Tractor & processor became separated today (operator error:blushing:) smashed the pto to bits before I could shut the mighty beast down. Expensive FU

Oops!!! The pto shaft you gave me disintegrated at the weekend. Bearings were getting worn but thought if I greased it to hell it would last till Christmas when I would have time to replace them. There was metal flying everywhere. Have a few spare shafts so no big deal.

Think I'll give the kindling a miss:laugh1:

[Mortimer Firewood]

Pto shafts are not my strong point now I've seen one smash it self to bits I've got a whole new respect for them.

[Hotrod81]

Got to keep your shaft greased!!
