The Rambro scream made me lol!

The first owner of that machine would never have imagined that a dude from the future would be working on it in 2024. 🙂

"Don't you sh%t on my tools!" Now there's a T-shirt Marty...

The scream right after spinning the Mad Max saw for the first time is maybe your best editing ever😂

Rambro screaming at the sawblade... Awesome. Was a weird moment years and years back when I realised "Angry Ram guy" and "Washing Machine power" guy were one and the same.

My dad was a huge Allis-Chalmers guy. Used to run a modified 190 on the local tractor pull circuit back in the 1980s. When I was in highschool, he ripped a D12 out of a field and completely restored it to "parade" quality. I mowed my church yard with that tractor for many years, such a workhorse of a tractor. He passed away 6 years ago and I miss him working on tractors, so these videos you've done on tractors, specifically this Allis, have brought back some great memories for me!

That saw blade scares the shit out of me! I was wearing gloves and safety glasses just watching the video!☠️

A MAN WHO CUTS HIS OWN WOOD WARMS HIMSELF TWICE

As an old bushy said to me once, you’ll spend half your life cutting wood and the other half burning it. Love your work Marty T.

The whirling wheel of death accentuated with Rambro's scream. Perfect!! lol

Marty is an example of a man with common sense and skills who doesn't need flashy tools to fix, repair and build.

It's lovely to see machinery my age (80) doing a good day's work.

Mate, your vintage museum is the best. Not glistening showpieces under artificial light, but diesel soaked workhorses doing the jobs they were designed for, decades later. A credit to both the original engineers, and to your careful restorations. Top tier content.

Great job as always! For what it's worth... I'm a physical therapist and once had an older patient who years earlier lost his right hand---clean amputation mid forearm---from, you guessed it, an accident with a rocking bed saw. He told me the lesson he learned was to always keep both hands on the rocker side, and set up a container for the cut ends to fall into.

My mother pitched a fit when she found out my grandad had me cutting firewood with one of those saws. That’s where I learned it’s easier to seek forgiveness than to receive permission. That was 46 years ago and I’ve cut many cords with it since then with no mishaps.

Obviously the kids won't be allowed anywhere near that blade when you're cutting up firewood. On the safety subject; one of my mates, [back in the 80s] did exactly what you avoided, when the fumes in a petrol tank popped, and blew rust flakes into both his eyes. No permanent damage, but he had both eyes fully bandaged, for a few days, after the hospital gave them a clean out. Lucky boy!

I have much more faith in that tractor working 80 years from now than anything brand new. Nice sympathetic repair and service.

I was surprised that you restored the little old fella all the way back to cut off saw in working order. Brilliant! Thanks for sharing your adventures Marty! I so enjoy everyone :)

I swear I got a whiff of petrol when you pulled that tank out! 😆

It's amazing how much difference it makes to a machine to just keep it under cover.

As an American, OSHA always comes to mind per safety. Just as I thought about how OSHA would respond to that, angry ram showed up. Quite a good laugh at that. Perfect comedic timing.

Always a good watch when marty drops a video

That goat was perfect timing. I was thinking the exact same thing!!!

New tool to try on my bucket list. Looks efficient.

Just a couple of points, our "buzz saw" had a great whacking flywheel on the off end and we always ran it with two people so that no body parts straddled the blade.

I love it when the vehicles get the oil diesel spray they always come up great after. Maybe even better than a new pain job i reckon

When that blade first started rotating I looked at my wife and said “HOLY! That’s scary!” And then right after that the screaming goat came on! We both had tears coming out of our eyes we were laughing so hard! 😂

Sir you could resurrect anything. That was freaking awesome. Thank you

I love those machines for cutting firewood, they're so quiet and relaxing to use. Also a spinning wheel of death, but that just keeps you awake while doing a repetitive task.

Absolutely laughed out loud with the sheep/goat screaming 😂😂 Phenomenal 😂😂

Oh mate, the Screaming Ram was PERFECT!!! You should drive that beast into town next Halloween...with the blade on!

Allis-Chalmers saw mill. Great episode Marty. And for what it's worth, I've gained confidence over time watching you and I'm now changing the fluids and blades on my own rider and push lawnmowers in preparation of the spring. I used to send them out.

I grew up in rural western Canada we called those “ Rocking cradle Buzz saws” they were used to do just what you used it for cleaning up slash piles , us youngsters dragged the stuff to the men who were running the saw we were not allowed too close as it would kick out small branches from time to time. Thanks for the video!

Beautiful work and an awesome old machine. Love the screaming ram lol ❤😅

Not only is he a very good mechanic who skillfully shows how to get machines running again and how to maintain them, he also shows how to protect your hearing and eyes. Not everyone who watches KZfaq has experience in such things and learns that a broken eye or hearing cannot be repaired. That's what I really like about his episodes, alongside his skill.

Growing up in Canada, I saw a lot of saws like this on tractors. My neighbor referred to it as the spinning wheel of death. "Anything that touches that spinning blade gets cut, if you wanted it to, or not."

Gotta say I'm addicted to Marty T's videos. Don't watch any others like them with guys resurrecting old equipment just Marty T. Why is that? Fist because he explains everything he's doing with any profanity of colorful asides. Really good hands working on equipment, great feel for what he's working on. He's extremely knowledgeable regarding a broad range of trades disciplines. Very creative combining different pieces of equipment to make something useful. Very practical doing what will have the greatest benefit while not getting bogged down making things perfect. Tough guy but doesn't act like it no pretense whatsoever at least on camera.

Takes me back to the early 1960s when my grandfather and his brother heated with wood on the farm. They had a slightly larger version on the front of a Farmall M. They put it between a wagon loaded with branches and a wagon for the cut wood so there was never any bending over.

hi mate what a terrifying machine! can I make a suggestion - dont use the one hand either side technique and don't wear a glove on your right hand. if you slip the glove won't protect you and will only serve to get caught and drag you into the blade. thanks for the vid

That tractor reminds me "the man that cuts wood for firewood " from my childhood . The tractor was a little bigger and the blade was about 1 meter in diameter it was cutting branches up to 30cm in diameter . It's stills scare me 50 years later . Thank you for sharing and bringing back good old remembrances . Cheers from Belgium .

Holy snapping duck shit! I flinched away from the screen when the disc of doom first got up to speed!

Regarding using a 12 volt on a 6 volt system. I converted my 55 Ford F100 to 12 volt - everything except the starter. If it didn't start in two cranks I had another problem, fuel or spark. Drove it for ten years until some xxxxxxx stole it. It was especially useful to have a 12 on a 6 V system during sub zero temps (F). It didn't care how thick the oil was. I had one problem where it wouldn't start - fuel line plugged up from that darn ethanol. I bought ten in-line filters....until they stopped clogging. I know - lazy - or I didn't want to crawl remove the tank in the middle of winter. Old yank enjoying your videos.

Love the channel from across the ditch in Sydney. I cannot believe how a saw like this made on the most simple of all principles is still better for what it was built to do than its modern counterparts. Probably the original blade too!

The first tractor I learned to drive was an AC D-17. It's really cool to see that saw attachment being brought back to life.

Nice! You made that old beast earn its keep.

It just shows that they don't make things like they use to. I can't help but admire your work skills!

My dad had a saw mounted on the front of a john deere model b and I remember as a child that blade making that whistling sound when it spun up. 👍

Lots of old machines like that didn't have drains for final drives ,gear cases, etc. It's always good to take a suction gun and pull out as much old oil as possible and check for metal or water contamination . I remember there was always a suction gun hanging in my grandfathers garage next to the glass jars in the wire basket.🍻

Those saw blades scared me as a child , dads was 5' and the belt was properly 10metres long and ran from a old crawler tractor, the noise was deafening

There's a lot to admire about your lifestyle Marty. Your work ethic is admirable too, I'm a lazy bastard. I'm always envious of folk who have a lot of get up and go, all my get up and go, got up and went a long time ago, lol.

Good job Marty, a worthwhile restoration. You will make a fine prime minister one day, NZ needs your vision and pragmatism. Keep up the great work.

That was a good one, Marty. Thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you, Mate.😊

When I was a youngster my father had a similar saw setup on our Ford 2N tractor. One time he used the hydraulic lift to get it off the ground while the blade was still turning and sawed a notch into the right side fender! We had a wood furnace and used that saw for years, must have sawed cords and cords of wood for that hungry furnace. The house was always nice and warm, though!

If old tractors could speak, seeing Marty T coming to own them "at last some oil change and grease" !!

I think my first reaction when the blade started up was the same as the ram's. 😱 I had a shop teacher in school with two fingers missing. His advice with saws was always "Make sure you tighten the bolt on the blade." I'd say that advice definitely applies here. But seriously, keep up the good work. Must be a lot of satisfaction getting work out of a good old machine like that.

Way to go Marty, you've brought another relic to life but wow it has so many safety features on the saw. BE CAREFUL.

Is there anything you can't fix?!?! Amazing to see what this is capable of after so many years of neglect.

I haven't seen those belt joins since being a kid on the farm, we had an old Fendt driving a hammer mill and a big circular saw, good memories.

When was quite young we'd travel to the family farm to help with harvest. My grandfather's silo feller and threshing machine were both run off the flat belt. Because of the nature of the beast you couldn't start the tractor with the very large heavy belt on the drive pulley. Grandpa would pick up that belt and get it on the spinning pulley. Crazy stuff. After WW2 my father bought a new Allis "C". He kept that tractor until into his 80s. Thanks!😊

The clip of Rambo the goat was excellently timed. As I sat there watching the saw blade gaining rpms, I had the thought of a farmer tripping head first into the blade. Well done, you got me good.

Awesome work Marty! That tractor and its wood cutting implement are a great addition!

What a great little Tractor! ✌👍

That blade looks like it was brand new, obviously the labels had gone but the teeth looked really good. What a find so simple really and who needs a chainsaw, especially when you've got a tractor unit as the power source. And obviously the tractor God, giving an old boy the love and care that he deserves. 👍

Nice to get a peek at the details of your working life -- another good one buddy

Thanks Marty, your videos are very entertaining. Keep them coming!

The older I get, the more I want an old tractor.

LEts go just finished an assignment and open youtube! perfect timing marty!!

What a charming old machine and another beltin’ revival video.

This is why basic piston combustion engines are one of the greatest inventions of all time. They could be made to last 100s of years!

Love all of it! those belt clips are mini versions of what we use in mining conveyors. Spinning blade of (wood) death, what a beast and so functional.. perfect!

Marty T, Cutting Edge Engineering and Clickspring are my favourite KZfaq channels, always good.

Nice little tractor! Looks like it's ready for a full day's work. That saw is working better than I thought. It seems to have a bit less capacity for thickness than I thought it would but it's still a handy little saw!! Great job on getting everything cleaned up and running!!!

I wish it another 80 years, it looks like it's in good hands.

MARTY T, IF YOU ever need parts for the magneto It looks to be a Fairbanks -Morse ,John-deere & Harley-davidson both used those Mags on their motors ,thought you might like to know ...MISSOURI PAUL We really enjoy watching you bring these old machine back to life ! 👍🤗🌞🇺🇸👍

Excellent to watch , preventative maintenance , quick service , making up a tipping rack for log cutting , one blade guard , adjust the belt , sharpen the blade , bobs your uncle , ready to go . . top man Marty . . great to see the old machines being saved and put back to working condition . . PS , hope Mrs t isn't looking for her missing kitchen knife 😉 👏 👏 . .

Here in the states we have a product called Caswell Tank Seal. Simply an ‘in tank’ epoxy sealer. Takes a day to dry after pouring it in and rolling around in the tank. Hardens like glass. I’m sure you folks have something similar. Consider it if you plan to keep that tractor and it begins to leak again. Cheers from upstate New York.

Back in the day when "worksafe" was a brand of beer......

Hi Marty, she is a little beauty, wish it were mine. Many thanks from Nr Liverpool UK.

Mart, you have an absolute diamond in the rough and a HUGE help in creating firewood, admire the ingenuity for installing a guard. Also, I understood having hands on both sides of the blade to avoid bending over, and I see you figured out bad injury just wasnt worth crossing the blade. That would be perfect for straight cross cuts for a farmer building a barn, drive it to the barn sight and start pre-cutting your wood no worries! Absolutely love it, never seen an example for that purpose before.

BRILLIANT! The belt drive saw is working very well indeed… portable and efficient. Another interesting episode. Thanks from expat Yank living in Mekong delta, Vietnam.

Thank you for making my old heart smile. You have assured me that with some TLC, there can be life in the old dog yet. A most informative video once again. Your videos are thoroughly enjoyable. Thank you

Grew up with an Allis WD and a front mounted buzz saw and no guards anywhere. I like the shielding from the wood cradle and over the blade!

Top job mate. That big blade was scary! Good to see the guard in place 👍👍👍

There's hundreds of YT channels fixing up old rusty tractors,,,But that's the first time I've seen anyone using a paint gun to spray oil and diesel solution to protect one,,,,,,,,,,,genius,,,

Thanks for another ride in your time machine Marty.

I was worried about how dodgy that saw blade looked, but with the guard now it looks completely safe...

Good machine, Marty. Before you know it your kiddies will be operating all those tractors while you go farm-hopping to find "more tractors".

cool old tech, still works as good as todays

Haha I love it. I run belt joiners in by putting the end in my cordless drill.

Hi Marty, I work in Health and Safety in the Workplace and I just want to tell you that if ................................................ Sod it, keep fixing things. All the best from Ireland!

That spinning wheel of death is terrifying ... but also looks really easy to use.

Thanks Marty ,brings back my childhood memories from the 60s .My father would cut up old Totara battens and posts with a saw like that ,the belt was probably 3x as long and he used Golden Syrup to stop it from slipping off the pulleys. That Totara wood would throw out the sparks something crazy out of our open fire even with a spark guard ,we used to watch our b/w tv with the smell of burning carpet . God i miss those days!!

Marty you must have read my mind! I was just thinking "That saw blade looks bloody lethal!" when you said you were going to fabricate a guard for it. I breathed a huge sigh of relief then, I can tell you!

Marty, this configuration was designed by a genius. I so enjoy the process of the project and repair steps. Thanks for an excellent video.

That is one scarey machine. Love how you made some gards for it and also explained to flush the tank before you work on it. Tractor runs like a well oiled clock.

In the halcyon years of my youth, ( 1960's ) using a very similar type of "buzz" saw, mounted on the front of a Farmall Super M, my Grandparents heated a 14 room house and cooked year around for a half-dozen men, with just the same kind of "slashings" and "laps" that you just cut up. With that "tractor saw", a couple of men could cut 3 silage wagon loads of stove-wood before lunch.

Been watching your videos for a while, always enjoy them. If you ever travel to Texas come see us. You would feel right at home here.

it would be great if you could do a resto on the body of the tractor. Watching your skills on display is always a pleasure!

Love how the chickens are hanging around, curious as to what you are into now. Probably hoping that whatever it is there might be treat involved. The screaming ram was genius lol. Always great stuff man.👍

Looks a whole lot more comfortable and efficient than a chainsaw on the ground. The electric saws working similarly to this should be really convenient for anyone making a lot of firewood in one place only, with electric power available. I've been using a sawbuck and an electric, corded Stihl chainsaw. It works pretty nicely and the neighbours don't hear a thing, but if I had to make a whole lot of firewood from thin wood, I'd probably consider an electric saw in this format.
