Nice think about that saw is you will have to buy a forklift to move it and the forklift will come in handy moving logs to the saw. Thanks Al. If I pull this off, I’ll have to rent an extending boom forklift to get the saw on a landing craft, obviously rent the landing craft, and then winch the saw up the beach on its side into my shop. Just to give an update…I’ve decided to lend the saw long term to a retired contractor who wants to restore the saw to full glory and put it to use on his colossal timberframe home.
