SOLD RATTLER 394XP

[Wolverine]

Seems when I come here looking for a saw for friends or family Nick has the saw I need for sale LOL.

So is this still available and what do you guys think of my buddy looking to pickup a big saw for an Alaska mill?

While I have you guys -- do you use a different chain for milling since standard chains that cut well cross cut or noodling seem to make dust cutting in the milling direction (slabbing)... Been mucking with saws long time but don't know much about milling.

394/5's are awesome for millin. I just use standard chain, be it full comp for shorter wood or full skip on the 42". Just file the cutters to about 10-15 degrees top plate angle and let er rip. They oil like the Exxon Valdez!

When Mike ported this saw for me i told him that i would like it for an Alaskan sawmill as well as normal cutting. He reassured me this saw would do whatever i asked of it. Just happens that my BILs neighbor picked up a woodmizer and has a skidsteer already. That kind of made up my mind

What Two stroke oil?
What ratio?
What bar oil?
What’s your elevation?
How much does it weigh half full of gas and 3/4 tank of bar oil?
How’s the balance with a 28” bar and half life full skip square ground chain?

I didn’t want to ask too many questions at once.
Next I’ll get into specific pics, sideways balance, and the craigslist classic “run good”.

I offered @JohnnyBlade 50 rounds of .223, 6 lbs of random brass cases, PLUS $100 to sweeten the deal.
Uppity MF'r still said no. Must be one hell of a saw to turn down that kind of loot in this day and age.

 

[JohnnyBlade]

LOL! Im back, long week. Hey did this thing sell yet?
