So far I've done all my own port work. I'd love to have a saw ported by one of the pros but man with the shipping costs and the exchange rate these days I cant do it. I'm not saying that the cost of having a saw ported is bad at all, I'd gladly pay $300+. What I'm saying is that the exchange rate for me would put that $300 US upto $450ish CAD and the round trip shipping would cost me another $150-$200 CAD. So for me $300 U.S. soon becomes $600+CAD. I wish there were people around my part of the country that did professional port work.
Maybe I should buy a lathe and keep studying and practicing then with a little luck someday I could be "that guy"............or not, I guess time will tell

Shipping and everything to Canada sucks but to the US is cheaper

I recently shipped a box full of saw parts to PA and it cost me $76.

I sent a 60 cc saw and it was close to 100 it was a 562 so like 15 lbs

I guess this is just the price we have to pay if we want to play...lol. Even with shipping costs of $200 it's still cheaper then if I had to deliver and pick up a saw
