Why not just buy a chain breaker & make your own? heck if your good you can use a hammer & punch to get by.

Vic, all the kart shops like Comet Kart Sales and American Power Sports have good chain breakers. They also carry good #35 space chain like RLV Xtreme. If you have a center-mounted engine you don't want to have to remove the axle to change or install chains! TJ

Most any place that has anything to do with chain has a good break. Northern Tool or a good independent hardware that sells good chainsaws. Or order one like Ted said.

Don't buy a piece of crap. Buy a DEDICATED #35 breaker like the one pictured at the top of this catalog page. Well worth the $20 + shipping:

Mine is like this one except it has a handle attached. Just used mine this afternoon. Zero hassle. TJ
