I have been wanting to try some chainsaw carving using a Stihl 024 AV that I have. Local Stihl dealer says I can't put a carving bar on it because the bars won't fit. I was thinking a 12 inch bar, dime tip, 1/4 inch chain. I would need the bar, the chain, and a different drive sprocket. Can this be done?? If so, where do I get the parts?
I have not yet done any chainsaw carving but I have used chainsaws a lot. I could try the regular bar on the 024 to get started but have been thinking that a carving bar may be safer in terms of kickback from the nose. Is that true or not?
Thanks
