    I've been watching for one that size to have for bucking up tops and stuff.....it'll even be a decent mid-range carving saw.......

    Wasn't really expecting it to come up just happened to open up facebook and POW....there it was. I threw him an offer and he accepted, so went right after supper and picked it up!! It was only on FB for 12 minutes, it wouldn't have lasted a half hour there at that price ....

    $150!!! That's a great deal on a great saw. That series saw is severely underrated.

    A simple muffler mod and it's a great runner!

    Congrats bud!!

    Lol...I actually knew the guy from my weightlifting days.....he's a good guy who's a little down on his luck eight now and needed to liquidate some belongings that he wasn't using anymore. He sold his house (where he had a woodstove) so the saw wasn't need at the moment but money was. Right place at the right time I guess.....
