Long time reader, first time poster.
First of all I have to say that this forum is exceptional! The information contained within is very informative and helpful, thankyou for hours of reading enjoyment.
I have finally decided to buy a 36 inch alaskan from baileys but before I make my purchase I would like some advice on what type of bar to get, what type of ripping chain is best to use, what pitch etc. I currently have s stihl 660 with a 3/8 -8z rim sprocket with a 24 inch bar and a 3/8 pitch standard chain. Do I need to upgrade the sprocket or is this fine? This will only be a hobby, although I can see myself getting hooked on this very quickly.
