    Finally found a job for the 395xp ! Gonna use this to upgrade our maple syrup shack. We need beams and posts and such for our addition. So picked up an 24" Alaskan mill. Hoping to try it soon ! Also hope I got a big enough size. Didn't realize that you lose an extra 2" if you have a roller sprocket bar tip. So added to the 4" you lose anyway..takes it down to an 18" wide max width. Lucky for me...I have a whole big woods of different choices .

    Congrats on your mill. There are a hundred things you can do with the wood that you mill. Pretty neat stuff.

    Also, your 395 will handle a much bigger mill if you decide that is what you want to do.
