can you haul this saw into the woods
Depends on what you mean by "haul" and "into the woods.", right?
Doesn't need to be "level" - the saw unit rides on the
rails. If you're daring enough, you could mount it nearly vertical.
yeah sure
What, now you're risk adverse? What ever happened to your sense
of adventure?

This is an up scaled rough lumber saw. Bigger & more
elaborate than an "Alaskan Mill" using a chain saw. "Perfect" if you
chainsaw probably be the better choice out in the wood since bandsaws
are not as portable
This doesn't look like the sort of rig one could pack into a
"remote" location. (I once was looking at property where directions
concluded with "at end of gravel road, park and prepare for a five
hour hike".)
