I retired my Stihl 090AV from milling with 36" b/c

Now use my Husqvarna 395XP with 36" .404 square filed Oregon 50AL. 8)

I may use the 3120 for milling. It's too heavy to do much else with it.

Big block saws like the 3120, 880-090 on a Alaskan mill is where they really perform.
When I was milling with my 090 on oversize spruce up to around 30-36" diameter and logs 32 foot long with my stabbing rails connected end to end. I just used the 066-395 for ripping cants.
But since using loops off a 30 ft roll of Oregon 50AL    (.050 .404 square ground) the 395 now easily handles the bigger stabbing cuts.
But you can't replace displacement as I may bring out the 090 again. I have a customer who wants some 32 foot tamarack beams milled for a new dock at his cottage.

Milling or racing is it. I seem to be working every weekend there's a race within driving distance. Milking I can do whenever.
