I recently lucked up and was able to buy a Dolmar 166. I am about to have it ready to use and have been looking to buy a panther mill II to do some chainsaw milling. I have searched, but can't seem to find how to choose a mill length based off of bar length. It has 36" of usable bar past the bucking spikes and I could probably get a couple more if I took the spikes off. I hope it's not a dumb question to ask what size mill should I get for it. I have tried to get a longer bar, but can never be the right place at the right time. A new cannon is $400 dollars and that is just not gonna happen. So, does a 36" mill go on a 36" bar or how does this work? Sorry if I am making this more difficult than it is. As far as the size wood I will be milling, who knows. If I would have had a mill, I would have milled this baby. That is a 24" bar for reference. I might brake down one day and buy the 60" bar but no time soon. TIA!
