pto / petrol saw bench

[old hand]

Very dangerous cutting multiple small stems with clamping in my humble opinion.

 

Can I please correct the above. I meant to say 'Very dangerous cutting multiple small stems WITHOUT clamping in my humble opinion.'

This one caught my eye ..

 

But I bought this one.

Chonda engine but pretty good and fairly cheap.

 

Where did you get the second one from, and what sort of money are we talking, if I may ask? Thanks.

It's called a Rottenbach I think. I got it second hand locally , hardly used for £500.

They seem to be from 5 to £700 on Amazon.

Tin work is thin , but the engine is strong and it cuts well.

Mine is electric start and has not faltered.

I've just ordered a petrol balfor 750. i could have got the pto version but i wanted to cut logs straight into the bucket on the loader tractor and tip in the shed. I'm hoping the engine is man enough!

 

Be interested to know how you get on. The sap in the wood especially soft wood sticks to the teeth, if anyone knows a remedy to this I'd be very grateful as I think this is what slows if down on the larger diameter stuff.

Apologies, my pictures didn't attach!

looking at the cost of a petrol saw bench, i could most probably get a tractor and a pto bench.

 

are grey fergies capable of running a modern saw bench, such as a balfor or an oxdale style bench, i know they have a ferguson bench but id prefer a newer one i think.

 

thinking ahead here i could at some point use said tractor to move my ibc cages around.
