    You bought it from Cole? That one sat on a shelf here in a tool store for a long time.

    Never sold. So one day I made the guy an offer with the intention of selling it again.

    Never saw wood before Cole bought it. Awesome saw.

    I too am in the O category. I've just come to the realization that I really don't need more. Plus, there just haven't been any deals good enough to jump on.

    Thanks. Got it done.
    Add said he only used it on two projects, home owner projects.
    I believe him.
    There’s not even scrench scratch on the clutch cover.
    Nice guy, down sizing and heading for a condo. Discovered we worked with a bunch people we both know. Could have chatted a lot longer than we did.
    I usually am picking up projects on the cheap. This one is boarderline shelf queen. It is a You Suck saw.

    10 running saws might be a stretch, but an easy 20+ saws overall for 2018. I usually get the trade-ins from my dealer. Don’t buy many on Craigslist anymore. Just don’t have time. I have started to fix and repair a bunch. So you'll see saws up for sale here soon. Plus some project saws.

    I can think of a 390xp, 066, 395xp, 372xp x2, 359, 2152, 7900, plus many more.

    Here’s the nicest saw I bought this year, 372xp xtorq. Put in a carb kit and fuel filter.
