I have one of those I would be glad to sell if someone wants one. I would probably even deliver it.

Nice looking saw but in my opinion he has it priced too high. He's asking for a starting bid of $7,000.00, or buy-it-now for $9,500.00. It's a 30" saw and Kingsley North has them in their catalog brand new for $6,750.00. And a new 30" MK/BD 303 blade is $850.00 totaling $7,600.00 which is only $600.00 more than his starting bid and is $1,900.00 less than his buy-it-now price. The seller is in Rhinelander, WI which is only an hour and forty-five minutes from Kingsley North's retail store, so I wouldn't be surprised if Kingsley North is who he bought it from. www.kingsleynorth.com/skshop/product.php?id=99659&catID=842www.kingsleynorth.com/skshop/product.php?id=93988&catID=113

A bigger one a lil further west....http://billings.craigslist.org/tls/4089071711.html That is a Movhave Industries saw built from a kit. If you were able to read the shiny sticker on the front vise plate it will read "Movhave Industries". Whoever bought it built the tank. The design is 'ok' and i've seen better speed contol/ drive mechs on the front. Last one I seen was a DC gear motor with adjustable feed and a weighted shutoff so as to if the blade wasn't turning the force has to go somewhere else which is spinning the drive motor that will hit a secondary switch shutting it off and was regulated by a weight. Or.........you could just use my recent powerfeed control which is so simple it's stupid and works like a charm and is 10x easier than any on the market but won't get any 'it's genius' comments because when you see it the first thought is whatever. In reality it is genius i've been building this crap for 20 years and its an idea I just had in my head for years but never tried till 2 nights ago. Like I said.........you won't be impressed when you see it but I can build it in minutes and it works.

Don't keep us in suspenders Rob. What is it?
I'm not that far from Rhinelander, but I've only had a couple of rocks that were too big for comfort for my 18" saw. I just block them down and they're fine.

LOL I guess it's not the control part but the drive dog part. I'll post pics later on. Those things are a pain to build had to be an easier way.
Looks like that seller added 'mohave' to the description unless I was so drunk last night I didn't see it which is entirely possible.
Only thing I don't like about that saw is the flanges are only 3" in diameter, way to small for a 36" blade last guy I know that had one had a warped blade I told him that's what it probably was but I don't think he believed me. Now he uses an industrial block blade thats damn near 1/4" thick lol.
