1930fordpickup Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 (edited) Man do I like this. We had a buzz saw that we used for years. We put the tractor on the other side of the saw so the long pieces did not get near the belt. The sad part is dad loaned it out and cannot remember to whom with the stroke and all.

espo Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Excellent looking build. This was a common power source in many parts of the country years ago. People just used what they had and this engine would run all day long no problem. Your build details this subject perfectly. That is really cool looking.

Anglia105E Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Very nicely done Mark, and as others may have mentioned this is an unusual subject for a diorama, and it really works too! David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ismaelg Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 (edited) Followed the progress of this one. Very nice! It was very cool in itself as a stand alone unit but the diorama brings it to life! I like all aspects: the engine itself, cart, belt, saw etc. Never saw this type of equipment in real life but my only comment is that the saw itself looks very shiny. Maybe dull it a little bit? Again, never seen one so not sure how valid my comment is. Love it! Thanks, Edited January 28, 2018 by ismaelg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, sorry about your dad. After I posted the pictures I realized I set the saw up wrong. I didn't think anyone would notice, but.... So here it is the right way & thank you all for the great comments!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
