Looking for used milling saw

[Rough Hewn]

The 076 runs at 10krpm

The 660 at 13.5k

If you want to mill 3' no more. The 660 will outmill all the others.

But over 3' the others will breeze but the 660 doesn't have a bar over 42".

350 for a good machine is a fair price too.

I use an 880 now. But depends on budget.

I started with a 440 then an 051 and an 056 onto an 075.

All good saws [emoji3]

Really? I used a 660 until I got a 076 and 084 never thought of using it since. You really found 660 faster on smaller bits?

Stihl 056 any good to you ?

[Rough Hewn]

Yes, the 660 out milled my 075, 056s,051 and a 440 on 12-18" sweet chestnut.

It's even faster on under 3foot oak than a new 880!

Having said that over 3foot it doesn't stand a chance.

In milling, there's no replacement for displacement. Go for the biggest cc saw. 660 makes dust and dulls chain fast. 084 cuts small chips as you can let it eat a bit more with lower depth gauges, chain stays sharp for noticeably longer. I've used 075, then 660, then 084 & the 084 was best. On Alaskan mill. 3'. Only problem with 075/076 is on a long log 20ft +, when you run out of fuel before you reach end, it's a pig to drag saw all way out of cut so it can be filled, that's with Alaskan. 084/880 you can fill it where it sits in the log.
