I have a cordwood saw that came with my A. Belt-driven. You often see them for sale for about $150. Newer ones are pto driven and have safety guards which mine lacks. My grandfather cut a lot of firewood on one of these. They are much more efficient for bucking up firewood than a chainsaw. I've never used mine--don't burn wood.

We ran a saw as you describe with a cub. From the belt pulley. Sawed firewood, mostly poles, not too larage. Much easier than pulling a crosscut saw, and fast too.

Buzz saws that run off the belt were very common at one time. The Cub would run a small one okay. They were used mostly for cutting up firewood and frequently had a rocking table that you used to feed the wood to the saw.

If you're contemplating using it, remember, this was before OSHA made it legal to be stupid. They are poorly guarded if at all, and about the most dangerous way there is to cut firewood. I know I've seen pictures somewhere, if I can remember where and find it again, I'll post it.

OSHA? Tort law would put any manufacterer of such saws out of business within one lawsuit these days. Read once where 30% of the price of a ladder is labeling and liability insurance.

I have one for my "H". Runs off an endless 30 ft belt. Five men could easily saw 10-12 cord in a day. I sawed 30 cord with mine last year. Run "H" about 3/4 throttle. The writers who are concerned with safety are correct. Their use is unregulated here in Canada.

To run this saw, it takes two men to carry wood, one to operate the saw, one to feed the saw, and one to pitch blocks. Two strong men can run it , but your cordage output goes down. Come to Prince Edward Island Canada for a free demonstration.

We ran a cut-off-saw that had a big blade to cut wood. It was belt driven from the tractor power take off.

Scott, Never seen a Farmall Cub but when I was a kid, mydad had logs cut into lumber at a small sawmill. I remember that the owner used a Minnonappolis? Moline to run the mill. I believe it run off a large belt off a pully on the engine.
It was a large engine, but don't think a cub would
have enough horsepower to run it.J Risher
