I run my carb dry after each use. If there isn't already a fuel shutoff, I'd install one if there is room for it.Cutting is the easy part. Finding a place to sticker the wood out of the rain can be a hassle. Green boards weigh much more if handling by hand. The romance of owning a portable band mill quickly wore off for me. I recently had a guy offer me good money for my Baker mill and I seriously thought about selling. My biggest headache is if the Honda sits for any length of time I can spend half a day removing the carb and cleaning plus trying to remember where all the springs and linkages go.
As far as talking OP out of buying a sawmill, it's just time consuming to cut and saw wood into dimension lumber.
