8) 8) 8) I recently retired and decided it was time to upgrade the TK B 20. Was looking at CMS used machines and came across th LT 40 Super they have listed on the forum homepage under whats new for sale down at the bottom. 51 HP Cat Diesel, Command control station Debarker and Lubemiser 400 hours and a great deal everything I wanted. Going up to Maine tomorrow to close the deal.

Cool! I run the wireless remote version of same mill. I really like it. Did you upgrade your off-bearing capacity too? :D

I guess it does pay to advertise on the forum. ;) (Shameless plug).

Congratulations.

Very nice. I didn't realize that CMS was nation-wide. And they've already listed your machine as sold, so the rest of us won't be tempted.

>:( >:( :( :( >:( >:( Just my luck the mill specs. that were listed, weren't what the mill actually was. Seemed like an honest mistake on the ladys part who was selling it ( her husband had passed away and she was left with the sale). I will now wait until I sell my TK B-20 then start looking again. Would have been a good buy if the description was correct. Thanks to Marty Parsons of Pa. WM for checking the serial number for me. Didn't find out until late last nite about the true mill specs. That was a close one would have been a long trip for naught!!!
