So, after you do this, you'll have a 7900 and a 6401? What's the point of that?
I see no reason to have both a 7900 and a 6401, for I can't think of a single thing the 6401 can do that the 7900 can't do better.
You can always cancel all bids, end the auction early and buy a 7900 top end for the Makita.
How long would it take to get permission to spend $190-200 making a 7900 out of the Makita? Heck, maybe you can put the Makita P&C on eBay for $50-75.
If you were planning on putting the 111 and 143 proceeds plus $200 or more into the 7900, then you've already got $200 cash in the budget.
How much for the 143?
How much for the 143?
yah if that is all it brings at the end of the auction that is what it will be sold for but I will not end the auction early for 300
My brother and I usually go cutting together and he likes to use the 6401 for everything so I rarely get to use it. I want the 7900 just for felling, I used to keep a 32" bar on my 6800 but when I got the 143 I put a 24" bar on the 6800 and fell back in love with that saw. I would put a 36" bar on the 7900. I know I will never have a saw with the power of the 143 again but I can not remenber a time when that saw ever even began to slow down in the cut.
Yes, 36" is a bit much for a 7900 in hardwood. Sure it'll pull it but it won't be it's sweet spot.
