I'm going to be in Irvine in 2 weeks on business. If I can get that into my carry on bag, you've got a deal. I'd love to have it.

Getting  it in the bag is easy, picking the bag up after that would be hell, the saw weighs nearly 500lbs.

I just got the 20" version this past Christmas.  It truly is a beast and is my favorite large power tool.  Whoever gets this will not be disappointed.

Moving it is not bad, if you have a trailer. Lay it down on it's spine and secure it.

Indeed. I moved my MM16 last year. I built a cheap trolley (a couple of 2x4s bolted together, riding on a couple of casters), and strapped it to the spine with mattress straps. A friend and I levered it into a UHaul, rolled it in, and levered it back upright. Piece of cake.

It would obviously be even easier with a trailer.

This is a great saw. 

Question for the seller: What year? How much resaw height, and what blade size? Prospective buyers might want to know.

I have a trailer available if anyone is interested in the saw. It won't be difficult to move.

I moved my Laguna LT18 using two old tires layed flat in the bed of my truck and then I centered the spine on them. Added ratchet straps and it was rock solid. This is a great saw and price—especially given the price increases with tariffs.

I use the same saw in my shop and am happy with it. If I could get a bigger saw in I would be happier, but this one does everything I need.

That is the trouble with the Bandsaw. It is always one size too small....
