Abstract: A wood buck fabricated of tubular steel components which can be easily assembled and disassembled comprises a base pedestal and a log holder removably and adjustably mounted thereon whereby a log to be cut is held in cantilever relationship within an opening defined by an upper log holder member and an axially offset lower log support member, with the base pedestal serving as a counterbalance to prevent tipping.

Abstract: A machine for cutting logs into lengths and then splitting the logs, the entire machine being portable. A common power source is provided for the circular saw and the log splitter, and the sawing and splitting operations can be performed independently of one another and either selectively or simultaneously. The machine includes a frame having the circular saw located adjacent one side of its top side and a slideable table feeds the logs into the saw. The log splitter is located on a large, rigid backbone of the machine frame and which also forms a tongue portion of the machine. The circular saw and the splitter are both hydraulically powered and controlled.
