Thanks. I'm not getting a warm fuzzy feeling from the seller of the 880. He refuses to answer any of my questions and I only get short replies. Something feels off. I just hated loosing out on the possibility of a good saw. Plus, I keep telling myself there has to be something wrong with the saw if he only wants $450 for it. It's an 880 not an 088 so it can't be that old. So you're probably right. Fix the 046 and see where it takes me.

They announced here as long as post marked Nov 3rd if received on or before Nov 10th they will be counted.
They could possibly make 2 trips to Kansas and still be counted.
880 is over 2 grand here in Canuck bucks. So 450 would be a deal even if broken. Can't imagine it costing more than 500 for a professional rebuild with OEM parts so half the cost of new. Don't underestimate the 460, it will handle the size of milling you are wanting, but it ain't an 880 that's for sure. I get it, it would be cool to own a saw that could cut anything growing on the continent!

Widow neighbor called tonight wondering if I wanted the wood from a couple of trees she is having a tree service take down near the house. Of course I do! Told her to get them to give her the cheapest price to put them on the ground and I would take care of the wood from there. She insisted that the wood will be stacked next to her barn and i could drive up to it with the truck to load at my leisure.
With that motivation I decided it was cool enough to move a little wood this evening.

Gonna call you the one wheeled wonder lol
Is that part of the wood, I'm available to come drop a couple trees for her and you know I plan on going that way so...
Managed to split a bucket today, glad its cooler, but its still warmer.than I enjoy and tomorrow it's supposed to be warmer yet
.So I've got about a cord and a half off this pile so far, bummer is I am getting a lot going on the bonfire pile as some has rotted, the good thing is I'm getting a lot on the bonfire pile
.Quite a bit to go, one bucket at a time, shouldn't be more than 50 buckets left
, cutting is more fun!
So did you back off from looking at it?
.
And I have the FIL's tractor with bucket in the barn... but there's no exercise in that to work off the Covid-10 I have (think freshman-15). That wood is from earlier scrounge from - you guessed it - my new best friends.Gonna call you the one wheeled wonder lol

I may have told you before, but I would probably find a way to do it at my own house, but no way I'm cutting trees that can reach someone else's house. She's got a guy coming in and she already told him that I would want the wood.
Stacking isn't *so* bad. At least it looks good when its done.
I hate to say this, but if you ain't down to the covid-9 yet you probably ain't gonna loose it this yr
.I here you, that's why I said I'd be happy to do it, will cut trees for
.But if you need a hand I'd be happy to help.
I'll bring the rope and the big shot for the cherry when I come thru

Fear is not always a bad thing

Meh, its probably only really Covid-5 and it happens every year after I stop playing basketball (and start drinking beer in the summer.) Unfortunately that happened early this year and the fall season is already cancelled. So we could get to Covid-10...I hate to say this, but if you ain't down to the covid-9 yet you probably ain't gonna loose it this yr
If he is being evasive about questions he either has something to hide or has someone that appears to be more interested than you. Probably best to let this one go then.
Well I ended up getting a $25 gift card from eBay for being a long term member of over 20 years. I needed a few rim sprockets as well as some more mix oil so I put together a nice list of parts and did some shopping.
I never got an email about this, it was in my eBay inbox within the site itself. So if you’ve been a long term member, might not hurt to check your messages box within there.
