Wonder if I can get this Stumpbroke?

Is that crazy contraption driven by a little friction wheel on the cutting blade?

Without a positive engagement with the drive shaft, I cannot imagine any scenario where that would work well enough to cut wood. I can see why it never got very popular.

What was it's intended purpose??? Any idea???

It was used just like a chain saw. McCulloch came out with their chainsaw and killed Barker's sales so Barker stopped producing these and started building chainsaws. Here's a 30" one in action at the Steam-O-Rama outside of Republic, MO. The one that I have is a 20". They said that it was a challenge to fell a tree since the blade was prone to pinching.

I wonder how may appendages these claimed? :msp_scared:

I saw that video, but I can't help thinking there would be other uses intended for it...
