Hey everyone-
Longtime lurker but minimal poster. I am looking for help or advice on a particular saw. Background: I have been working saws for years, heated house exclusively for the last 7 years or so with self cut wood. My regular use saw is a Stihl MS290 Farm Boss. It is unbelievably reliable and I cannot say enough good things about the saw. However, a few years back my wife bought me a Granberg Alaskan mill to mess around with some beautiful cherry logs I had. I changed the chain to the recommended type, but quickly realized that I was going to kill my saw because it just was not made for that. So, I put the mill away and vowed to get at it again in a few years. Well, I have just gotten access to about 190 acres of hardwoods and would like to attempt to make some slabs/lumber to work with. I found this on CL after looking for a while and the price point seems good, but wanted some folks opinions who know more than I. Please let me know your thoughts:

Thanks in advance!
