I went to an auction today and came home with an Alaskan 54" mill.   ;D  It's a complete package minus the power head.  It won't see much use other than the occasional large slab or two.    It cost me $72.   ;D

WHAT A DEAL! In the right market you could pay for it with one nice slab. Good buy!

did it have the bar and chain?

If so, does the bar fit a real chainsaw:  you know, the ones with white handles?

lots of dull bands and chains

There's a fine line between turning firewood into beautiful things and beautiful things into firewood.

Yes, it came with a bar and chain.   I'm not sure what saw will fit on it.   The bar has multiple holes ,machined in it so it looks like it may fit a number of saw types.

Dan - I have a can of orange Krylon that you can borrow to fix the white handle problem you have.  ;D

That's great buy!  The bar alone new, is worth over $200, it came with the aux oiler, stinger handle and the whole works?  That setup new is close to $600 new!
