    Saw runs good. No protection on that drive line and you were standing right next to it when you engaged the pto. Not good! Get on the tractor to engage it and give it a wide berth. If anything goes wrong, that drive line will injure you in a heartbeat.

      Optical illusion. I’m 2.5 feet away from the shaft. A cover was added later. You can see it boxed in later videos. You’ll see a lot of dangers on these old mills and if an operator doesn’t keep them in the forefront of thinking, he won’t be around long.

    Small word of caution! be careful starting tractors from the ground, I know of two instances where the tractor started in gear, one resulted in a ran over foot, the other resulted in death. if it has sat for a while, you never know if someone may have messed with the shifter. you may have checked for neutral. just saying.

If using tractor over 60 hp, use belts or clutch that dont apply over 60hp or 600 ft pounds of torque on the saw, I have bought a couple wrecked mills from higher hp tractors hooked to them. The original foley bell saw literature explained this and said never hook pto to saw mandrel. After they sold out the dumb ass who bought the company started the pto hooked to mandrel crap, with a shear bolt joint that connected to the mandrel the pto hook up is what got them sued out of businesses. You must match hp to mandrel size. Last mill i bought guy was killed by it.

    My grandfather bought a Farmall Super C new in 1952. He believed at that time farming had to be done with horses. He had a sawmill that looked very similar to yours. When the Buick engine he was using didn't work out he bought the Super C. It was backed up to the end of the mill and ran the mill from the belt pully. I have the tractor now and mostly use it on tractor rides however it has a side mount mower that is handy for mowing pasture.

    • @tennesseesawmillguy1590
      @tennesseesawmillguy1590 9 місяців тому

      I’d say the most favorite would be Poplar. It cuts like butter and usually has very little taper. Has interesting colors sometimes. Least favorite would be Hickory. I guess because for my setup, it can be heavy and a load to saw for 45 horsepower. I’d say red cedar is right on top with my favorites too. If they’re good and solid.

      @tennesseesawmillguy1590 10 місяців тому

      Yep.. I’m near Dandridge. Longest logs I’ve sawed was 15’-5” for rafters in the sawmill building. That’s pushing it because the carriage is 9’, so there’s a lot of log hanging off both ends of the carriage. Then long logs get super heavy if they’re large. It’s a light duty mill but it’ll saw quicker than most high mid level bandmills. You’ll lose a lot in kerf width over a bandsaw though.
