Does anyone make a 24" bar for the Husky 435? I think it's the small mount and .325.
Long bar for a 435

Used to be able to get one from Oregon, but truthfully you asking a lot from that saw even with a 20" on it.

LOL . It's not for cutting. Once a year I help a friend with firewood for his cabin in the rockies. He's in his mid 70's and can't run a saw like he used to but feels compelled to help. I want to put one of those 16" measuring sticks on the end of a 24" bar so he can mark the logs for me to cut. The long bar would keep him from having to bend down and he would feel like he's actually being helpful. I guess I could've led with that.

Dont forget to sharpen a chain often....otherwise you can melt bearing seat (plastic half).....435/440 often do that!
When you find a bar, post pics, please.
Ok that makes sense then, grab a full skip for it. Had one a long time ago and it was pretty sad with an 18" on it, just trying to imagine it with a 24 lol.
Google The name " Piltz hot saws" and be amazed!

He'll just be making a notch in the logs with the tip for me to then come by and buck. Still think a full skip is necessary?
I believe you can get a replaceable nose bar 24" 91 drive links from Oregon, I have a GB one. You can get a 28" bar of similar make 93 dl of 3/8 and change the nose not sure what the link count would be. That is for the small mount husky. It won't balance well with a model 435 enen though I am not familiar with what that actually is.
Yeah, I would. If for nothing else it's half the cutter to sharpen.
I think full comp semi-chisel would be better. Smoother, less bouncy.
I predict: long intervals between sharpenings, in this application, with semi-chisel.
