SELLING Milwaukee Digital Torque wrench, Trade for Saw

[Thumper88]

Like New in Box Milwaukee Digital Torque wrench. Includes an older battery, no charger, only have one charger and I’m keeping it for other tools. This has never been used. Was bought for a business plan that fell through. Paid around $700 before taxes for the bare tool. Looking for $600 shipped with the battery. Would really like to trade for a 70cc or bigger saw. Sold all my big stuff a couple years ago to help a family member and trying to get a couple big saws put back in the garage for firewood and farm work. Will pay shipping on saw as well and can add some cash to make an equal trade. An 064 or 066 would be ideal, or a 372 or 390. Anything in that class that runs good, even if it’s cosmetically rough.

Didn't you buy that ms880 a few years back?

 

[Thumper88]

Yes I did. A few years ago I had the MMWS 880, a West coast saws setup 500i, a Tree Monkey 064, an XS 7900 race saw, a 390 and a couple others. And then my sister got sick and her husband left and by the time it was all said and done helping take care of her 4 kids plus my own wife and kids I had sold every saw I had except a little MS250, along with my tree work truck, knuckle boom and climbing gear. I’m not trying to get back into tree work, to much risk especially with a family to take care of. But I do find myself in need of a big boy saw quite often and it gets frustrating. So I figured I’d see what I could come up with here.

I never did cut trees full time. I was doing it as a small business for a few years, supplementing my income. But I work as a Production Manager at a boat plant. I was just an assembly line guy back then so the extra money really helped, but I have pretty good insurance these days and my family has finally stabilized with all of us helping out with my sister and her 4 kids.
