    Bringing a Crabb Sawmill back to life and back to work!

    Im setting up the machine how i want it to be set up, if the 2-53 doesnt have enough beef, like im saying it may not, the beautiful thing is that i can take the clutch and PTO off and bolt it up to any other detroit engine, of which i have several contacts of 4's, 6's and even a pair of 12V-71's...

    Bringing a Crabb Sawmill back to life and back to work!

    Does anyone here have any input on a dust collector-blower setup for such a sawmill? We are currently working on getting the engine frame welded up and mated to the sawmill. The big 4 groove v-belt pulley FINALLY showed up yesterday, as well as an impeller for a dust collector that I got off...

    Bringing a Crabb Sawmill back to life and back to work!

    Hammering a blade is where they put a little bit of an umbrealla in the blade so that when its at speed, it straightens out yet retains just a slight clearance so the side of the blade towards the center of the teeth doesnt drag on the log as it passes. (I'm very newly educated about this so if...

    Bringing a Crabb Sawmill back to life and back to work!

    As far as the blades, theres actually two there, leaned up against each other. We were told, anyways, that one blade had just been reconditioned, and the other had been but had hours on it. From what i can tell they both look pretty darn sharp. Plus he had a bucket of inserts and the tools to...

    Bringing a Crabb Sawmill back to life and back to work!

    Oh it most certainly did just that. When it first lit it was only hitting on one so it REALLY sounded like the guts were about to come out of it. Another guy there with us looked worried, "should we kill it?!?" To which I replied, Nahh and cracked the throttle open and it cleaned up and...

    Bringing a Crabb Sawmill back to life and back to work!

    Unfortunately no, his cabin doesnt have any grid power to it as of yet, he has a large generator for charging the camper batteries, but the price tag to have power brought across the one field edge from the road was upwards of 30k. We are going to pour a number of footings to mount the saw...

    Bringing a Crabb Sawmill back to life and back to work!

    Hello again all! Well, to make a long story just a little shorter, my soon to be father in law owns 40 acres of woods and camping and hunting ground just 2 miles away from my house out in the country. He is going to be building a cabin there and was interested in getting a sawmill to saw up...

    MM wheel weights? Trade?

    Yeah, I don't mind transporting them some miles. Like I said, I just want to make sure I'm not going to be using some rare weights that someone really really wants for their MM tractor when I could trade or whatever for weights that are (probably) much more common for my MF202. Plus then it...

    MM wheel weights? Trade?

    I tried to find some info on your weights with no luck, are they a 4 bolt pattern? My 202 has the 24" inch wheels, I will measure what the bolt pattern is on my wheels. Can you give me rough dimensions? Diameter, bolt circle, etc. Also, how much do they weigh? just for reference. Thanks!

    MM wheel weights? Trade?

    I'm moving this from the general tractor talk board, My coworker gave me a pair of wheel weights that my best guess is that they are for a Minneapolis Moline. I was going to use them on my Massey 202 with a home made adapter, but my friend suggested trying to track down what they are actually...

    MM wheel weights? Trade?

    After cleaning the tags a little more, i can see that the tag reads, MM FT652C U.S.A. 1431X Searching that part number brought me to another thread, http://www.yesterdaystractors.com/cgi-bin/viewit.cgi?bd=mm&th=47363 But I still have a tough time finding any google image search that looks...
