Who's had experience with the 3pt hitch PTO driven circular saws. Anything good/bad about them, safety precautions when using . . . etc. Thanks

I have heard lots of horror stories about the old "buzz saws", but am not at all familier with their newer brethern. This should be interesting!

Thanks for the correct name - couldn't think of it for the life of me.

Back when I was dumb as a post at 14 and thought I knew everything... I knew that thing was dangerous. Even then I hated working with the old man on the buzz saw. It had no guards of anykind on it, just a big 4 or 5 foot blade tuning some odd rpm and I had to stand there catching the pieces as they were cut. Even with a guard I wouldn't want to operate one today but that is probably just holdover from the old experience.
