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.
Making a living with a saw since age 16.
