I was wondering if anyone out there knows who the manufacturer of this buzz saw was or is?

Brent: I see that you have some good safety features on your saw. My older brothers had one about 55 years ago. They ran it off of a Model-A or Model-T. Just a saw hooked to the rear axle if I remember correctly. Absolutely no safety guards. I didn't think much about accidents at that time but scares me to death today. I see that you have a nice plow on your Cub also. Dan

There were hundreds of makes of these saws before chain saws became common. Sears, Wards, Bullard, and even local blacksmiths made them.
I have a rear mounted rig for my cub that I can't quite read a faded decal on, so I don't know who made it.
Look for cast iron pieces. They may have the makers name on them. Many of the smaller makers bought off the shelf parts, so they may be of no help.
If it was easy anyone could do it!

Mike

Ron,
The bearing castings on your saw are the same as a Bullard saw I have. That may mean it was made by Bullard, or they bought bearing castings from the same foundry.
Make sure to oil the bearings good before you run it. The babbit bearing will melt out in no time if you don't I use 90W140 oil I drain from gearcases if it's clean.
