Came across a 288xp Lite sorta local to me for sale. Don't really need it at the moment, but you know how if you build it, they will come. I really just harvest firewood for my family and help relatives and friends out with firewood and cutting up downed trees. I'm also interested in milling down the road (in the next year or so) but never done it.
I have an 044 w/ brand new 28" ES bar and skip chain. I've used it once in a 40" oak a couple weeks back...it worked, but wasn't really impressive. About what I expected out of the 044. It's a little tired and needs some refreshing maintenance done on it (maybe port work:msp_biggrin to really get it where I want it. Don't really want to sell it, but I would if the right replacement came along for a reasonable price...
288 xp lite
new 30" b/c
new carb kit, coils, wiring, piston ring, fuel lines
Seller used to be head mechanic at a small engine repair shop and collects, restores, and sells saws.
What would you give for it?
Does it even make sense for me to get a saw this size at this point?
Like I said, I don't really need it right now and it might be a little overkill for what I come across most of the time, but I feel like it could be useful and advantageous to have a nice 50cc(also have 346xp), 70cc, and 90cc (give or take a few cc's in there.)
