Seal the ends with Anchorseal ASAP. I don't think its shake, just drying cracks and may not go far into the log. A few cracks won't ruin the log, it just might yield differently than you had planned.

A standard weight 42" bar has a lot of flop when the saw is laid over on its side. Its hard to start a straight cut on a lumpy tree. I think a lightweight bar would be worse, maybe barely usable.

Here in the U.S. the last 10 years or more (20 years?)the saws have been the EPA model. EPA is "Environmental Protection Agency" a U.S. government agency with control over such things. I don't know what Husqvarna sells in other markets but I suppose that they sell some U.S. certified models into...

The saw is sold pending receipt of payment.

I've milled probably 15-20 good sized trees. I cut most 6/4 and thicker. I am covered up in wood. If anyone is sincerely interested in buying this saw, I can provide close up detail pictures of various parts of the saw if that helps make the deal.

Don't know the hours as it does not have an hour meter.

This saw needs a good home.

I bought this 3120 Husqvarna new, broke it in, and then had it modded for milling. The tuner installed an unlimited coil, a screw adjuster on the carb., and did a light muffler mod. This is a super strong saw that will pull a 42" bar with authority whether milling or falling. It is much stronger...

I check in from time to time but have not cut anything for a good while.

I got my vise today, so I immediately set it up and tried it. IT IS TRULY EXCELLENT! Great machine work too. Buy one, you won't be sorry.

Nice, nice, nice! Thanks for posting this.

His book got me started chainsaw milling in the 80s and probably inspired many thousands others since then. He will be missed.

The way I pick up my mill and saw makes me glad to have a chain brake. Because I start the saw on the ground and let it cool off running on the ground after a long cut, I use it every time I lift the saw on or off the log.

Tell us about your age and health, your finances, your time for the project and your ownership of the timber you propose to cut. You can surely cut enough wood with a CSM to do what you want but it'll take a lot of hard work and a couple of months to accomplish if you can keep at it every day...

I use a 7 tooth on a 42" bar. I feel its a little easier to run and easier on the saw than an 8. I mostly cut hardwoods, up to 30" or so. For smaller stuff and softer woods the 8 is faster.

Its 12:37 long and worth every minute. http://www.abc.net.au/landline/content/2014/s4109955.htm "There are things in it that I didn't do right, because, let's face it, the fellow who's never made a mistake, he's never made anything.” (this is also posted in the Milling section because its...
