When you start to feel like you've got a real grip on filing go check out the channel clickspring... That guys is playing a totally different sport with his files...
Thankyou very much for this video I bought my first chainsaw last week and when I was sharpening for my very first time, using what file the chain recommended It didn't seam right it felt slightly to small exactly like what you showed us in the beginning of your video. Now I can't wait to try the next size up. Thankyou very much for your video I really appreciate it!!!!!
Have this a try this morning, what a difference. After years of using smaller files for my smaller chain, a simple change to a larger file has made a huge difference to the way my saw cuts. No more packs of multiple size files from now on. Thanks for sharing this with us all
When I started w/the smaller (recommended) file, I struggled so much sharpening (ruining) the teeth. After seeing this, I switched to 3/16” and wow! The chain is sharp, and I’m confidently and effectively sharpening now! Thank you so much Sir. I appreciate your passion and dedication to teaching.
My first chain saw was an electric, about 30 years ago, just some odd job pruning, then about 20 years ago bought a gas power saw and more pruning and cutting, even poison Ivy vines about 8 to10 inch diameter, big itchy stuff, pulled down some big trees. Taught myself to climb as a refresher course from earlier days of living with apple/plum and pear trees. I always took my chains to a shop to have them sharpened or bought a new one, seemed cheap enough for professional results. I have never sharpened my own. This video is the one that will get me to set up a new work table and put up my vice to get the gullet. After moving last year i got stuff everywhere in boxes and storage, it is a cluster closet of crap(stuff) got a box of files, box o chains, a great indoor work project for the winter months. Love all the detailed comments, I am very slow to do detailed work that I've never done. Must absorb as much info from all sources. My local friends have told me they can't believe I've never sharpened a chain, they've all done it. It wasn't until now with such great camera angle close ups and the best darn tootin teacher on the yous toob that has inspired/motivated and taught me to appreciate my own abilities. Thanks Buckin and the many, many experienced wood-folks for all the valuable insights. Love the Buckin army, I'm a buck-private.
I'm a beginner at this, and can't wait to sharpen my chains on the next rain day I have at work. I really appreciate the positive affirmations you add to your video text. The world needs to practice them ! God bless you, peace and grace to you as well !
Thanks Buckin' you are simply the best. I follow you since we left PARIS FRANCE to find a new life. Now, one year after, I have my own woods in the country and in one month, I'll be back to school to learn everything about being a woodsman ! Thank you for giving me the inspiration for this new career and I simply hope the best for you and your loved ones ! Maxi greetings man.
Going to use an Oregon 3/16 File on my 201. Thank you Buckin for saving me alot of time,and teaching me something I might not have ever known without your Videos. Looks like you get the Gullet,and at the same time the 3/16 just fits,and sharpens better.Also for demonstrating that the Husky Files don't work as well for the topping Saws ,so I don't have to wonder which File works best. As always very grateful for your Channel Buckin .
Thanks for this video. I have been cutting firewood for over 50 years and thought I knew how to sharpen a chain until I watched this video. I now heat my house of 2000 sq ft with a homemade water stove and under floor radiant heat in north central NC. I started cutting wood with a McColluch with a manual chain oiler and am now using 42cc Poulans with 18 inch bars and 3/8 pitch chain. I sharpened one of them yesterday following your directions with 3/16 file and cut what wood I had uncut. I had a 10ft oak log 18in and a 12ft oak log 12in . I cut them 20in long in less than 20 mins and was disappointed that I didnt have more to cut. That really woke up that saw and I could not find my depth gauge for the rakers. Thank you again
Good day to you buckin’ ive been a cabinetmaker and shop teacher for decades, always had a mental block about getting my chains sharp, sharp! Always ended up buying a new one, chain that is not a new saw,well just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, you’ve changed everything for me, first revelation teeth don’t have to be the same lenght, second revelation boat filing get the gullet, third revelation don’t need to count strokes, and finially forth revelation keep going until you see a burr and no light on the edge, it’s not rocket science,thanks again
Man I discovered Buckin last week and I’ve already watched maybe 60 videos? I wonder if I’ll ever watch up, great problem to have. Stay blessed everyone
Great info, always worried about having exact file size, your close ups really showed how much better the 3/16" file fit the teeth. Been on saws since I was 12, in tree business and lot clearing for about ten years total off and on in earlier years. I'm 59 August 2022, I really learned a VALUABLE lesson to share with family and friends thanks to you. I've been watching your videos for a couple of years, just subscribed in support for good lesson learned today
I found a 3/16" file to work better on my S 290 for what I wanted instead of the little 5/32, .....before I even knew what I wanted. I just knew I didn't want what the 5/32 was producing. Thanks for confirming BBR
New subscriber who GREATLY appreciates your videos and the time you take to make them. Haven't operated a chainsaw in 20 years and just bought a Poulan Pro 4218 that came with an Oregon Chain that calls for the 5/32 file. The 5/32 felt weird when I test fit it to the cutter. Now I'm going to use the 3/16 when it comes time for the first sharpening. At first I thought it was a Full Chisel Chain based on the square factory grind and was ready to purchase a Swiss made bevel file , boy am I glad I watched this video before I did that !! Thanks Buckin for helping out the newbie community. And as always , Thank You for your messages of kindness. Be Safe , Be Kind and Be Happy.
It’s all in the filing!! I sure have learned a thing or two from your videos! My fire wood cutting is a heck of a lot easier now! I just enjoy cutting and splitting!! Thank you BBR 👍🏻✊
Hi, Billy. I use a 5.5 mm file for large saws (like Husqvarna 572xp) , 4,8 mm file for medium-sized saws (like Husqvarna 550xp) and 4,0 mm file for small saws (like Echo 2511) . Akujelppi from Finland 😉
Thank you!!!!my saw wouldn’t cut butter lol.cutting to the left ,smoking you get the picture. I watched your video and followed what you said and it cuts awesome.Even my employee that cuts firewood to heat his house for the last 30 years was impressed!!
Great video. Thanks for taking the time to share your expertise. I prefer to work on my own tools and this gives me the confidence as a new chainsaw owner.
Great filing and really great description of how to file. Like surfing, playing pool, golf and so many other things in life something one hones and hopefully improves on until the bell curve starts pointing back down
this is crazy. i just bought a husky t435 top handle saw for cleaning fence rows. and i never had a saw that called for a 5/32 file. smallest for me was a 3/16 file and i was just looking out in the garage excactly what buckin just showed. Love you Buckin and the family.
Only reason I use a 5/32 is when I get old chains that guys discard with lots of toothed left but it don't cut. I open up the gullet with them to re establish that hook. All about the gullet my man. Chains have life gain and it doesn't cost me a thing except a cup of coffee and a couple of songs on the radio. Love from ontario
Thanks for the helpful information Buckin’...always appreciated! It sounds like it’s raining really hard there, at first I thought you were frying bacon on the wood stove 😆
Hey Buckin thanks that was real clear. Sorry to hear of the mighty Chester passing on, hugs from all of us to you Wendy and the kids. He was a character all right and he lived an admirable existence.
NICE little saw buckin they work great I carry one on the 4 wheeler sometimes going into my buddy's hunting camp in case there's dead fall across the trail great tutorial video be kind be safe 😁😁👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Great video as ever Buckin, really learnt something here 👍. I've previously always used the 5/32 on smaller chains but look forward to trying out grinding those gullets with a 3/16 next time. 18:25 great shot of the Safety Crocs 😲. All the best from chilly wet Devon, UK.
Good afternoon from the Netherlands! Thanks for sharing. Did some firewood cutting last Saturday and afterwards filed up the chain again using your tips and tricks. They really work for me. First a few downward strokes to get the gullet and therefor the hook and then dress up the topplate. Once again thanks! Hope your arm is feeling better.
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith would you be able/willing to do some more take guage debur bar maintenance and also your PREFERENCES to mix oils and octane for the older saws.
Always love the filing videos.....Teaching me always BR....I will never forget leaning against the log you were sitting on at Buckin Stock giving the same lesson...THANK YOU !!!!
Buckin' i had trouble sharpening my chains for my little saw recommended file was 5/32 after watching you with your man sized saw chains i went up to 3/16 much better an much easier to sharpen my chains, thanks Buckin' for helping me think outside the box.........
@@shapeshifter7753 i had that same trouble plus as Buckin' said you have to hold the file up which i think is the issue with keeping them consistent but after watching Buckin's sharpening videos i tried 3/16 and the difference was amazing i honestly haven't looked back since....
Thank you for taking the time to teach every one how do all this!!! Did a 026 sharpen and do the rakers!! WOW HOT STEEL IN BUTTER !! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHOWING HOW TO DO IT !! WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!
I'm sitting here drinking coffee hanging out with ol' buckin' billy ray. My saws are sharp, but you got me wanting to file... So I guess in gonna wander out back, and find something to saw on... Love, and respect to all you folks!
Buckin I'm stoked you got back to me about purchasing an axe absolutely stoked now these videos you post are Awesome and have made me so much more up close and personal with all my power saws I Will NEVER pay to have my chains sharpened by anyone else ever again bought myself an Organ sharpening kit and some extra swiss made files and I'm off to the races with sharpening all these chains THANK YOU A TON
Go back about a year on the videos... He made one with all the angles, and really broke it down good! This one is good also, but he really goes into detail on the other one.
I’ve probably watched this three or four times now. Still pick a little something up every time. Sincerely though, thanks so much for recommending the 7/32” file. With the 3/16” I found on a new tooth, I developed too much gullet and it would cut like crazy for a few cuts and then roll that cutter right back just enough so that I’d have to dog in to get it to really pull through. With the bigger file, it’s not so extreme a hook
Idk how clean you like your work bench but I like to have some 6" neodymium magnets wrapped in some ziploc bags on each side of the bar. Makes clean up a breeze, just put the bag on backwards and pull them off and do whatever you want with the shavings. Hello from SoFlo :D
328 / 5000 Vertaalresultaten Old School! Did it once in this way, but since Oregon developed an automatic sharpener with the accompanying chain, sharpening is done in 3 seconds! My stihl petrol saw is now gathering dust because I bought a Makita battery-powered chainsaw, no longer dragging with petrol.
That makes so much sense! I think the 5/32 was made to use with a guide that files that hook. I don't like using the guide. I think using a 3/16 makes alot of sense. Thank you Billy Ray!!
This is true, absolutely true. I’ve been doing this for years, never knew it was a thing. What ever size saw/chain combination I’m running after the chain has some miles on it I try a bigger file. If I’m having to start my stroke and pull up on the file it’s a dead giveaway. The file stroke with it’s proper X and Y axis (angle & tilt) should correct any dulling.
It’s crazy how similar you and I file even down to the rocking strokes to get the gullet out I don’t know anyone else that did that till I seen your channel 👍
Just found you on you tube this past week and we are watching you every night. You are one incrediblean and a very happy, positive person. You have life by the butt. We are from the mountains in North central Pennsylvania. Love your program
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith we watched both videos of your rehab And tour accident. You say you are not religious but let me tell you. You have been put on this earth as a messenger and God is on your shoulder for sure. You have a Aura around you of kindness and being happy. You are so uplifting. Also, my husband timbers our property and we burn firewood, about 15 cord a yr. Never bought oil in 30 yrs. And he has learned a lot from you in a week. You both are the same age. Thank you my fb friend
Thank u buckin... Been following for a while now here from South Africa... Have a 45cc 18inch saw with a low profile chain... Got a 3/16 file set and was worried about my file being too big but the gullet looked a lot better... Saw cuts like a big one... Thank u for sharing the trade and the love... Big ups "boet" afrikaans for brother👍👍
Great information thank be to you and yours. Love love what your doing on this channel so much help hard to take it all in. You are amazing. God bless you my friend
These videos are GREAT! Lets be honest, the average home owner owns these little saws for cutting around the house, and like you said, they call for the smaller files. those that are running production, or working as an arborist are going to have topping saws, and can use the same information!! Thank you sir! The question I have is what files you use, because the ones I get look nothing like the spiral pattern you have on yours! Thank you good sir! Have a great day everyone!
So the is it a laser or a axe video got me here. Gotta say man your positivity is contagious. I have found humble hard work to be a good mind cleanse in my life as well. Keep making these videos! I appreciate the wealth of knowledge and the positive attitude! Thanks man!
Buckin, this video was very instructional and informational good for all of those chainsaw users. But I'm not into chainsaws, I'm too old to teach this old dog new tricks. Be Kind Folks!
Hey there Buckin and friends. I have always struggled sharpening little saws. Pees me off. I swapped to the next size up and it just snigs right in there better. Those little wee files are just to aggravating.Love to all from NZ.
Thank you sir. I've been looking for some one to show me the best way to sharpen my chainsaw. I've watched your channel for a while. Great content. Awesome work. Thank you 😊
Another good video. Guess I’ll try the 3/16” file although the file guide does eliminate part of the problem with the 5/32” by keeping it high and against the tooth. Have learned so much from your videos. Thank you.
I have 1 saw that takes 5/32 the rest take 3/16, it's a rainy day today and well I might just have to go out to the shed and play a little bit with the hand file!
Good morning. Super video. I bought some 3/32 chainsaw files. They are so fine they hardly take enough metal off . I will deffinately get some 3/16 files
Right on Billy. I started using a 3/16 on my 3/8 lo pro chains right after you put the first video up on it. I have to file mine a few times with the 5/32 on a new chain because I don't hardly have enough clearance to run the file between the tooth and the raker when they are brand new.
Was just wondering have you ever heard of a Canadian i purchased one in 1965 I was 15 years old then I still have it. In joy your video’s and I even have the wife watching now. She is into your axes. So from Montana to you keep em coming.
Good video..! As a humble Saw (Stihl ms170) user...I've never seen anyone mentioning the fact that all chains have two teeth that face same direction (so the user knows when they have done a full rotation) and it's time to spin the saw or your body round and start the sharpening process until you reach the same two teeth that face same direction..! Unless I'm a total fool, it eliminates a lot of time and headache working out where you need to start to fill...and all that time marking the starting point with magic markers tippex efc...Maybe I'm totally wrong
I took your advice on a 14" corded electric saw, 3/16 file & "get the gullet" and man o man does that saw cut thru oak. As good as the power saw but less than half the weight
Yeah that works, but as you get farther into the depth of the teeth, you'll be having to put a lot more work into it than necessary because of cutting into the link of the chain. Using the right size file allows you to get more use out of the chain before you have to start grinding into the link to keep it sharp.
Spray painted my 029 stihl all trippy hippy looking, looks sweet ran it through a big maple trunk like 16 rounds so bar doesn't look perfectly painted, cool color
The more times I watch your filing videos the more confident I get in my hand filing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Buckin'
Same here! I'm still learning
Completely agree. Something about his method really imparts how simple it can be.
When you start to feel like you've got a real grip on filing go check out the channel clickspring... That guys is playing a totally different sport with his files...

I needed this thanks Bucky. I’ve been paying to much to have my chains sharpened. I need to learn this. Thanks I like the way you break it all down
Go back about a year on the videos... He made one with all the angles, and really broke it down good! This one is good also, but he really goes into detail on the other one.
I’ve probably watched this three or four times now. Still pick a little something up every time. Sincerely though, thanks so much for recommending the 7/32” file. With the 3/16” I found on a new tooth, I developed too much gullet and it would cut like crazy for a few cuts and then roll that cutter right back just enough so that I’d have to dog in to get it to really pull through. With the bigger file, it’s not so extreme a hook
I have just watched this video immediately after the video uploaded on 6th Dec 2021 - Small Saw Chain sharpening.
Good videos, Thank you.
Idk how clean you like your work bench but I like to have some 6" neodymium magnets wrapped in some ziploc bags on each side of the bar. Makes clean up a breeze, just put the bag on backwards and pull them off and do whatever you want with the shavings. Hello from SoFlo :D
I have a toppin chainsaw. It’s a Poulen Pro. I am going to sharpen my old saw just like you have with the 3/16. Thanks!
How many times have we watched you file chain over the years? I never get tired of it! Keep doing the good things man. You’re an inspiration
Recently went from 3/16ths to 11/32nds....i love it.

Old School! Did it once in this way, but since Oregon developed an automatic sharpener with the accompanying chain, sharpening is done in 3 seconds! My stihl petrol saw is now gathering dust because I bought a Makita battery-powered chainsaw, no longer dragging with petrol.
That makes so much sense! I think the 5/32 was made to use with a guide that files that hook. I don't like using the guide. I think using a 3/16 makes alot of sense. Thank you Billy Ray!!
the 5/32 works ok on round chain
This is true, absolutely true. I’ve been doing this for years, never knew it was a thing. What ever size saw/chain combination I’m running after the chain has some miles on it I try a bigger file. If I’m having to start my stroke and pull up on the file it’s a dead giveaway. The file stroke with it’s proper X and Y axis (angle & tilt) should correct any dulling.
It’s crazy how similar you and I file even down to the rocking strokes to get the gullet out I don’t know anyone else that did that till I seen your channel 👍
ive been thinking about that for a while , that file size thing , it makes sense a lot of sense
Thanks Buckin'!! Not only are your videos entertaining, but I always learn something as well. Thank you, friend!
most welcome
Just found you on you tube this past week and we are watching you every night. You are one incrediblean and a very happy, positive person. You have life by the butt. We are from the mountains in North central Pennsylvania. Love your program
Karen thank you this means alot / and am glad that you may crack a smile now and again while watchin' love to you and yours
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith we watched both videos of your rehab And tour accident. You say you are not religious but let me tell you. You have been put on this earth as a messenger and God is on your shoulder for sure. You have a Aura around you of kindness and being happy. You are so uplifting. Also, my husband timbers our property and we burn firewood, about 15 cord a yr. Never bought oil in 30 yrs. And he has learned a lot from you in a week. You both are the same age. Thank you my fb friend
Great video Buckin as always. Thanks for the helpful advise. Stay safe and take care out there.
Thank u buckin... Been following for a while now here from South Africa... Have a 45cc 18inch saw with a low profile chain... Got a 3/16 file set and was worried about my file being too big but the gullet looked a lot better... Saw cuts like a big one... Thank u for sharing the trade and the love... Big ups "boet" afrikaans for brother👍👍
Great information thank be to you and yours. Love love what your doing on this channel so much help hard to take it all in. You are amazing. God bless you my friend
These videos are GREAT! Lets be honest, the average home owner owns these little saws for cutting around the house, and like you said, they call for the smaller files. those that are running production, or working as an arborist are going to have topping saws, and can use the same information!! Thank you sir! The question I have is what files you use, because the ones I get look nothing like the spiral pattern you have on yours! Thank you good sir! Have a great day everyone!
oregon
As always, great instructional video sir! Thank you for making these
I was going to ask about going into the side strap...... Don't worry about it! Bahahaha! You're the best!
Best tutorial on sharpening period
glad it makes sense
“C is for cookies that’s good enough for me, oh cookies cookies cookies starts with C”. Great video, and great tip!!!
Your sharpening song? That's catchy!
So the is it a laser or a axe video got me here. Gotta say man your positivity is contagious. I have found humble hard work to be a good mind cleanse in my life as well. Keep making these videos! I appreciate the wealth of knowledge and the positive attitude! Thanks man!
Buckin, this video was very instructional and informational good for all of those chainsaw users. But I'm not into chainsaws, I'm too old to teach this old dog new tricks.
Be Kind Folks!
Sweet you show your passion.
Hey there Buckin and friends. I have always struggled sharpening little saws. Pees me off. I swapped to the next size up and it just snigs right in there better. Those little wee files are just to aggravating.Love to all from NZ.
This will definitely improve my sharpening. Thank you buckn
Thank you sir. I've been looking for some one to show me the best way to sharpen my chainsaw. I've watched your channel for a while. Great content. Awesome work. Thank you 😊
Just can’t watch too many videos about hand filing! Thanks Buckin and love from Idaho❤️
Really good sharpening master at work. I love these videos.
Another good video. Guess I’ll try the 3/16” file although the file guide does eliminate part of the problem with the 5/32” by keeping it high and against the tooth. Have learned so much from your videos. Thank you.
You freaking rock my friend. Thank you for being that positive energy!!!
Thanks Buckin!! I gotta try this right now. Headed out to cut up some more oak trees we dropped a couple weeks ago. Firewood !!!!!
Peace everyone!!!
I agree 100% on 3/16 the 5/32 always seems to Flimsy and couldn’t get a good edge with it cool to see you do the same!! Awsome videos!
I have 1 saw that takes 5/32 the rest take 3/16, it's a rainy day today and well I might just have to go out to the shed and play a little bit with the hand file!
Good morning! Perfect timing with this video for me. Was on my to-do list for today. Thanks!
Good morning. Super video. I bought some 3/32 chainsaw files. They are so fine they hardly take enough metal off . I will deffinately get some 3/16 files
Such a badass. I love this guy!
Right on Billy. I started using a 3/16 on my 3/8 lo pro chains right after you put the first video up on it. I have to file mine a few times with the 5/32 on a new chain because I don't hardly have enough clearance to run the file between the tooth and the raker when they are brand new.
if ya wanna ship that step try putting 3/16 in straight across for a couple strokes they a gradual turn
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith never would have thought of that! Thanks for the tip my friend!
Wow ❤thanks a bigger file ? was made me think 🤔 never thought about it that was a huge thing
Morning BBR and the Bucking Army another good informational video have a day love from TEXAS
Was just wondering have you ever heard of a Canadian i purchased one in 1965 I was 15 years old then I still have it. In joy your video’s and I even have the wife watching now. She is into your axes. So from Montana to you keep em coming.
Good video..! As a humble Saw (Stihl ms170) user...I've never seen anyone mentioning the fact that all chains have two teeth that face same direction (so the user knows when they have done a full rotation) and it's time to spin the saw or your body round and start the sharpening process until you reach the same two teeth that face same direction..! Unless I'm a total fool, it eliminates a lot of time and headache working out where you need to start to fill...and all that time marking the starting point with magic markers tippex efc...Maybe I'm totally wrong
I just put a red mark on my starting tooth and work around until it shows up again. No muss, no fuss.
I took your advice on a 14" corded electric saw, 3/16 file & "get the gullet" and man o man does that saw cut thru oak. As good as the power saw but less than half the weight
I like seeing the saw shop, i remember a couple years ago when you cleaned it out in a video & made a saw tree 🌳 stand. Great video
yeah buddy
JUST A FEW POWERSAWS 🤣🤣🤣👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽MAN CAVE NICE COLLECTION BUDDY ,WELCOME TO THE CHANNEL ALL NEW COMERS
Yeah that works, but as you get farther into the depth of the teeth, you'll be having to put a lot more work into it than necessary because of cutting into the link of the chain. Using the right size file allows you to get more use out of the chain before you have to start grinding into the link to keep it sharp.
switchin back near the end solves this, if yer concerned about it ,, thx
Spray painted my 029 stihl all trippy hippy looking, looks sweet ran it through a big maple trunk like 16 rounds so bar doesn't look perfectly painted, cool color
Great stuff , thank you !!
I must order that green ‘Get the Gullet’ patch to cover a small rip on my green work trousers 😊✊🏼
