Can you fit any length of bar to this saw?
The one I have is 17 inch but I want to use a shorter one as well.
Will any stihl bar do?

Why do you want shorter than 17"? You aren't carving with this thing are you?

Just curious. :)

First saw. I thought I would be better with a short bar when up a tree. Obviously not.
