thanks, I had looked at that saw, but would prefer OEM and not ported at this time...@westcoaster90 has a 385xp for a very reasonable price.

Sorry, I must have misread/misunderstood.It is OEM. Don’t be raising questions that aren’t even valid. Some people read that **** and don’t even take a second look at my ad. The saw is 100% OEM. It’s just a OEM 390 that had an OEM 385 top end installed cause the 390 has met it’s day. I wouldn’t use a 385/390 for everyday milling either but I mill occasionally with them and they are enough to do whatever milling I need done.
Just as with many things, if you don't pay much you don't expect much, and in the end you don't typically get as much.Would like to stay under $600 if possible...bottom line is looking for the right deal.
Why not save the cash and haul the logs to a sawmill, or find a portable to come to you. A $1000 will get a bunch of logs turned into lumber! Enough for every aspect of a 2000sqft home. After you try sawing a hickory you'll know what I mean cedar will be easy though.I'm new to this world and looking for a good milling saw to process some hickory and cedar currently, but looking for a utility saw that will last. I am open to offers and suggestions...
I have both ajonsered 2094 with 32inch bar and a 2095 with 36inch bar

thanks!ya im with westcoaster90 I wouldn’t use a 385/390 for everyday milling. that said its one of my fav saw lines and is ok for light milling from time to time but if its for just milling or for milling 36in+ then id go with a 394/395xp or ms066 if you can find one
I've researched the sawmill option and with the volume I have, the logistics, and the pricing in my area, a portable mill is a better option for me at this time. I've also researched the lower end bandsaw mills and compared quality, cost, etc... with chainsaw milling and the CSM is the route that works best for me currently (unless some crazy deal on a BSM came along). My long term plans also include much more milling, so a good investment up front will pay dividends over time.Why not save the cash and haul the logs to a sawmill, or find a portable to come to you.

Then spend money now and save in the long run, it's just like most things, front loaded or rear loaded with interest.My long term plans also include much more milling, so a good investment up front will pay dividends over time.
