Yeah be good to see bob, my tractor is having the back end off this week as I have found out the pto is knackered, always just been run on hydraulic for the splitter, new pto shaft in and she will be a good un.

Got a wee video done in this dry weather....

 

 

 

I wouldnt be overly gone on the way of working there.

I have a pto saw and I never put my hand on the right hand side of the blade or never see the need to. Horses for courses though. :thumbup1:

I might be wrong but so far every one has commented on the cradle type saws ( rytec , major , balfour etc ) where a log is put in a cradle and pivoted towards the saw blade , what about the flat top / bed saw ( Mcconnel , Kidd , Browns etc ) where the log is pushed along the flat top towards the blade , which is considered to be the safer . The flat / bed saws are £ 800 plus more money than the cradle type

I wouldn't want an employee in this day and age using one of the old style saw benches, the new benches are a far safer bet!
