Buckin I'm grateful your on youtube. It's like a different World.A good World to shut out the bad .I don't look at Social Media,but I can't wait to get on my youtube subscription, and see what you have in store for us today. Your Channel is good for the Soul. A healthy place to be.
Great video, buckin. It's always comforting and an honor to have your content playing in our homes. You're an exceptional man. Keep up the great work .✌️
I just came across your channel yesterday & man do I love your positivity, kindness & love for your fellow humans 🥰! It just oozes through the screen❤️. Matched with the great educational & entertaining content leaves one feeling refreshed & motivated 😃! I loved seeing your Corkers in the beginning as my Dad wore those when he was logging, back when I was just a kid. I’m 53 now 🙂. I have a lot of great memories from back then cuz my Dad worked HARD & yet he still made time to wrestle with me & my big bro when he got home. In fact I’m gonna shoot him a quick thank you for being such a great Dad 🥰 & I’ll end by saying thank you for your amazing content!
BTW thank you for the education . I had to buck a huge popular this week and would of got pinched for sure if I hadn't watched your videos . The video is fresh up on our channel and I would be truly honored to see your comment on our little channel .
I've got to say, I really enjoy your falling videos, I've got some health issues now and can't really get out with a saw to cut firewood. But I can get a taste of that good feeling watching your content, so, thank you!
Greetings from Hungary!🇭🇺 You have very cool videos and I can learn a lot from them! Not to mention you work in very beautiful forests! If you would sometimes just show the forests the trees, it would be awesome!
I just so happen to be on the island of Elba in Italy!! Here on a 25th anniversary/honeymoon trip with my lovely wife! We had twins instead of a honeymoon it was a blast😊. Anyway I’m staring at the ocean and this national parkland behind me being grateful as anyone could be. Looking good buckin!!
Hey Buckin, haven't commented for a long while but seeing all that brush makes me wonder how you deal with ticks out deep in the bush? Love the cutting vids brother
As far as i know Vancouver Island is a tick free zone but the climate will prevail and that can change year to year. I live in tick central, western Pennsylvania and have been riddled with ticks for the last 10 years... have used numerous things including the heavy duty Permethrin. But i have a new method that seems to be working for me. Peppermint oil, continuously applied during my time in "the woods" cutting, climbing ,clearing and hiking. Even on super hot days with short pants and short sleeves and sometimes barefoot. Reapply every 30 minutes to an hour. Also ingest one drop in my super coffee daily. ✅🌿💚🍀
BBR, with “swirls” like that,! It’s almost impossible to keep that guitar in tune! Same thing 😢archery equipment or anything else. I’m an archery guy and it’s beautiful, but that’s the same reason that rifle stocks aren’t made from that pretty wood. It’s really great for other things though, I just can’t place what those things are at the moment. 🤨
I love the feel of my pants tucked in my boots but have learned that the pants over the boots is a preventative measure to keep my socks from getting ruined with tons of debris. 👍
I ran processors for years. 10 years ago on a small clearing job in western Washington we had a dump truck load of Maple chunks that fetched $18,000. I was taught about using deep face cuts on Okanogan forest fires back in the 80's. Burning, crumbly trees that need to come down ASAP! Messing around under them, setting wedges could get a guy killed. It's always a pleasure to see your saw skills.
You’re so incredibly inspiring to watch buckin billy, love watching you use that 371 with 86cc’s, it’s just amazing how much that saw rips.. so keep em coming baby!!!
Billy that first tree was worth money but that sevond one if you were to mill that to 2 inch rounds dead standing already seasoned your talking for slab that size over here be 600-800 a slab for that burl wow 😲😳 👍🏴
Hey their buckin , new subscriber here, man I absolutely love your channel, I LOVE EVERYTHING LEATHER especially boots, I’ve got several pairs of Nicks and got another pair on order can’t get enough, I wish I could get a pair of Vibergs but I better let my wallet cool down for a bit
Welcome and salutations to you. Real leather goods are great products especially boots. I wish they would teach children in grade school how to take care of shoes and boots and tools, too many things getting thrown away. Just got a pair of false tongues from Buckin and i wish i had them years ago. 👍🏆🍀
Makes total sense. If I have my beer hanging 1/3 off the table it won't fall off. If it's 1/2 it starts teetering. But push it more than 1/2 maybe 5/8 and surely my beer will fall and I'll need to get another 🤦
Only makes sense when both the beer and tree have balanced wieght...If the beer was in a leaning glass or a tin with a semi crushed bottom, the dynamics change...Assesing tree balance is the skill of the fellor...
Awesome video Billy me and my dad used to run a Timber King band saw mill and sawing snags was one of my favorite things, never knew what you were going to find but most of the time it was beautiful !
I dropped a dead maple for my neighbor. I cut some for my dad to use for wood working. The rest was chunked for firewood. He made some pieces that were curly maple and I asked where he got the curly maple from. He said I gave it to him. So I have an Alaskan mill so I don’t get that sick feeling of cutting curly maple into firewood.
Hey buckin. I’ve noticed you put a deeper under cut in big trees (proportionately). You might cut 1/2 of the diameter of the tree. Whereas in small wood you only cut 1/8 to 1/4 of the diameter. Just wondering if you could explain that one or if it’s just about efficiency. Or does a tree behave different once it’s past a certain size.
Interesting observation, not sure if Buckin has a formula but think each tree is different and the size and species and lean and rot and targets all play a part in his wood-mind 🪵
I was wondering why you / when you know how deep to go with the under cut and then you took the time to explain it. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge with us!
Now you just need to collaborate with a saw mill channel and then a guitar makin' channel. Best known for figured guitar tops is PRS. I am sure they would love to combine viewers. Or maybe Godin is out closer to you.
I see you rockin some new shiny hide for the chopper! That’s a fine looking burly log my man! My uncle in North Carolina harvests all kinds of the oldest, most beautiful burls turned fine furniture. So yes, Buckin, I can totally image that maple as a beautiful addition to anyone’s home. I’m so glad you shared this experience, friend!
I can't determine exactly where you are but, I think you're a UPer. I love the UP, northern Wisco, and NE Minnesota; all around Superior. Is that where you are?
Good day BBR. I don't get to watch RU-vid much so I may have missed some info about the muffler mod you you are testing for the 562xp. Are they for sale yet, if not hopefully soon. I really want one for my 562xp. Would like to get a little more power out of her without porting.
Just thinking on how well these chainsaws work sideways on , you would imagine like a car engine that they would not probably work at such an extreme angle and piston going side to side instead of up and down ..? Good video. Ps I have never used a chainsaw but spent half of my long building trade life cutting concrete with a stihl cut off saw but never at them angles.
Whats the reason for felling those smaller trees? Can you sell them or do you fell them because they aint worth much/never gonna be worth much? Or just firewood cuz I never see you cut to lenght on the trees
This man is a real faller if there ever was one! I would bet there isn’t much he hasn’t seen or can’t do when it comes to a chainsaw. I believe he was born with a McCullan 125cc in his hand.
Hey Buckin would it have been better to fall the tree above the burl up hi ? I have gone out with an old school guy like you getting some burls before We did some like that he always fell it above the burl no mater how hi just wondering The 2 of us got a 1200 pound Mable out of a swamp 400 feet & up the 10 foot bank & into the back of the truck with jacks & cables pulleys & truck took 3 days but the money
I just watched it fall yep you should of cut her hi to but that off as low as you can dig out of the ground too Billy ray cheers Oh If you smack the bark off to check on the Mable to look for the good stuff It will be all bumpy the it’s more rare then burls it’s like 1 & 50 for the Guitar Wood or birds eye or fiddleback whatever he calls it
I sure would love a free buckin hat life becomes to much at times sometimes you need a lil freebie to perk a person up, I'm skin and bone working and they need me to paint half dozen more duplexes inside and out do the fences do bark cut the bushes pressure wash sidewalks apparently it's impossible to find a person that can do as good a job never late never call out never anything but make them happy, I'm about to lose it
Good workers are hard to find. They will push you to your limits. Slow down a bit and find the perfect music for you to ease up the pressure. If you don't have at least one good helper then slowing down is the next best thing. 🧾✂️⏳👌
I really injoyed your videos. Cant wait for your next one. Be good to see you go back and retrieve that amazing pice of wood and make something out of it. It would be great.
