    I got this saw last year at a fundraiser (auction) that was done here for one of our former member that past way. I'll link those threads to here tomorrow. However I'd like to see it kept in the FHC family.

    *Edit for Link* : http://firewoodhoardersclub.com/forums/threads/ms-290-auction-for-phil-fortschs-wife.7159/

    This saw is in great shape cosmetically. It's not your run of the mill average MS290. It was gone through and modified. I've ran probably only 5 tanks through it. It'll be a great firewood cutting saw for someone.

    But I've got other saws that I just pick up more often. So I'm going to put this one up for sale and shrink my inventory a bit.

    $400 PHO (I can throw in the bar & chain if you want too) + shipping... Prefer PayPal Friends & Family.

    Maybe I can dig up the video for this saw tonight. It runs circles around a stock 290.

    This 290 is nasty. I wanted it when it was at auction.

    Good luck with sale. It's a great saw!!
