Hey there Mr. and Mrs. Buckin! My name is Rick, my wife and I watch you all the time. You and your wife actually shouted us out on your video about two years ago. We love the energy that you bring to this world. We love you bother!
Prayers for Buckin and his family during this upcoming trip. Safety to and from Daryl’s and all the cutting in some very dangerous blowdown trees. Love you brother🙏♥️
During my working years I was busy raising my daughter and holding things together, always on the move. When I retired, I really let go of things and drifted along for a while without a plan, and it cost me. You're absolutely right, sitting on the sidelines will take you nowhere. I had to make a decision who I wanted to be for the rest of my life, and how I could make a difference. I realized what I want the most is make the world a friendlier place, and help my daughter find her path to happiness and contentment. I think kindness is key. We all make little ripples in the fabric of the Universe, and when I listen to all you good people, I have hope for the world ☺️❤️
❤❤loved the content brother!!! My family and I will be lifting you up in prayer for safe travels, and safety as you will be working on a blow down patch, and prayers for Daryl and all who is involved 😊😊 this is awesome to be a part of such gratitude for others, and their needs...best UA-cam channel around by far❤❤ love wins, much love from my family to yours!!
Maybe were all nuts coming here to listen to your interventions and nuggets of wisdom!! But you are 100% right. There is plenty of opportunity for people with honesty, integrity, a smile and willing to work! As someone learning i am maybe even too honest for my own good. But that has bought me lots of referrals and repeat work too. I have even told a customer i had never done a job like theirs but wanted to try it. Told them that i wanted the chance to learn and that if i got in over my head, i would stop, clean up, and let them find someone else to finish. And if that happened all my work would be 100% FREE. That honesty won me the job, and a customer that was actually very accomodating to the job running a bit long as i learned. And i have been asked to come back for another tree later this year. Making sure the customers expectations align with what your going to give is also very important!!
100% on the opportunities out there right now! Maybe not in the "job sector" but if you have a trade skill there is money just waiting for someone to come grab it. My brother and I started a small side project pressure washing homes/vehicles/concrete driveways/fences, etc. It was SMALL at first, just something to make a few extra bucks. Last year we bought a commercial pressure washer essentially intending to make the money back to cover the cost on a few jobs & if we made anymore, great. Plus we'd have a good pressure washer for personal use. Within a month we had two painting crews that liked our work so much on pre-paint washing (and getting chipping paint off of eve's, etc) that we had 6-8 jobs a week, each one was $400-$800 bucks for 3-5hr work (vinyl is cheaper/easier, Dryvit/Stucco is more delicate/takes longer, so it just depends on the surface, whether you need to use chemicals, square footage, etc). We were turning down work as there was just no way we could get to it. Now we have a job that pays well literally whenever we want it, at least for spring/summer/fall. I've got a friend that does small tree-trimming (like branches around power lines, taking down widow makers, that sort of thing) and he's probably pulling in 50k a year from doing 3-4 small jobs on the weekends with a Stihl Farm Boss & a little 12" electric lol. There is constant need for small engine repair, general maintenance, mowing, landscaping, painting, cleaning rain gutters (I know a guy who has made a full time job of repairing old gutters/spraying them out) The economy might not be very good right now, but Billy's 100% right that people just don't want to do those "husband" chores that the man of the house used to do on weekends. They pay good money to not do them as well... Get out there and make it happen! If you aren't a "master" at whatever task, start small & volunteer your services for free until you know what you're doing and feel like you're worth paying for. It's great advertisement for whatever your service is, and you can bet you'll be the first person those people call when they need it done again (just don't let them walk all over you... charge what you're worth!)
i agree with you 100 % the only people not making it are the ones who are not motivated. I've worked all my life and have done side jobs right along with my regular jobs. Never looking to take advantage of anyone just putting a couple extra bucks in my pocket. And always by doing jobs that gave me satisfaction. And I've done many freebies by just helping out anyone who needed it. The problem now is there's no more kid down the block or friends kid that's even remotely interested in helping out or earning a few bucks. I'll be 75 soon but I'm still always looking to help out(if i can). you and your brother are on the right path👍 thanks
@@carlotodaro5052 Well thank you, I appreciate that! Before we started this little project I thought the claims of it being hard to find high schooler's/early 20's "kids" to hire was over-blown, but I was totally wrong! I now have painting crews, general contractors, etc I work with regularly and they're always under-staffed. 20 year veteran journeyman plasterers having to mix mud because they can't find a laborer, that kind of thing. We've had 5 or 6 different laborers since we started a year ago, the longest stuck around for maybe 2mo. I don't get it, as we generally do 4-5 jobs a week (mostly on the weekends) and we just need someone to grab an extension hose off the trailer, hose down any bushes plants close to the house/fence/etc so they don't get harmed by the detergents, wipe windows down when we're wrapping up the job. It's not hard work, but people just don't want to work it seems. I don't get it... Done quite a bit of free work since we started doing this. Get a lot of neighbors of clients that ask what the rate is, or if I do this/that, and in most cases if I've already got everything unloaded I''ll just do it while I'm there. I enjoy the work otherwise I wouldn't be doing it, and especially when it's someone that is financially struggling (which is a lot people anymore...) I'd feel bad if I DIDN'T help them out. Met some great people that I'd have never met otherwise, and as this world keeps getting crazier and crazier, that's far more valuable than money anyway... I've rambled far too long, apologies! haha. Hope you have a nice evening. Godspeed.
WOW!!!! Such a beautiful piece of mother nature all I can say! I have a places like this in Ohio. It’s called the Hocking Hills/Old Man’s Cave area, with just beautiful rock formations, like what you have out on the left coast. Such a beautiful and peaceful place! I LOVE IT!!! Also not very far from where the Paul Bunyan show use to be! Specially when they had it done in the Hocking College south of Athens, OH.
Very nice work Buckin! Years ago I cut almost half way thru a large horse or mule shoe. The shoe was placed in a crotch of a very large maple a long time ago. I was using my Stihl 056 pro with full chisel full house Oregon Powercut chain 72LPX, 3/8 IN, .050 Gauge 28" bar. Wife still has the shoe in the barn. If she can find it , I will post a picture.
Mr. Billy Ray,fantastic job as always,tutorials on cuttin,& of course work ethics,life skills to make our little part of the world a better place! THANK YOU SIR!!! Safe travels,safety in your work over in Nova Scotia.
Hey Buckin just finnished cutting 2 cords with my 562 ported and piped. Thing is wicked still needs some pipe work but loves the dogs dug in. ❤ WHBOBK.
Never pull from the bucket of a tractor...if he would have pulled off the rear of the tractor it would have pulled it... He gave the tree a leverage against the tractor the way it was hooked
You’re right.or he could have pushed it over instead of pulling.the added lift while pushing would have got it done.when you pull either bucket you load the front end and lose all the torque and traction from the rear drive wheels
Awesome! Loved watching till the end, lots of hard work, but good for the soul! I’ve got a big pine tree down by the creek, will get a measurement, and a picture to you one of these days! Love ya friends!
All trees could be something. But firewood is something! With a log that big and being a “yard tree”. Plus how does a guy move that much wood at once without big equipment. A guy must as “Is the juice worth the squeeze?” The cost to make lumber from that one log probably isn’t worth the cost of loading and hauling a single log. But as firewood it’s worth every dollar and minute spent producing it! Nice work
Another beautiful job Buckin I follow the same principle It's all about the preparation then everything goes smooth!!! I have adopted your saying "smooth is fast "
The quality will be remembered long after the price is forgotten. I would get phone calls, back in the day. I retired, I moved to a new state, they are finding me out, I am getting calls again, can you come look at this job for me? Quality, honesty, like Buckin says.
Buckin dang man I wish I had you here in Ohio I just took on a job 40 trees around a church man I wish people didn't have so much faith in me I'm not a faller I'm a firewood guy have been my hole life but man I'm scared about this job
"I just listen to my spirit." Passion synonymous with your name, yes sir! Billy you're all about inspiring. UA-cam channel? -I could see ya on the History Channel, someday and it wouldn't surprise me! Your channel and what ya bring is just awesome. LOL the rocky theme!
Built ford tough rolling that big log . Big project complete any metal in trees and power saws don’t mix I’m glad you don’t have to spit those blocks !
It’s funny how you can feel the steel when you’re cutting and then the oh nooo. I just broke 2 teeth off my 28 in chain, oh well I will watch some of your sharpening videos 😅🎉
Thanks for your explaination of why you did not go with a bigger power head and Bar. I have a 076 stihl that I only use on Three & 1/2 footers & bigger, which isn't very often. I guess when you have a good runnin 500i , your huskys & McCoulochc you dont need any thing else. Anyway you made another good video.
I have that saw. Been running it for years. I love it too! I’m running a 20 inch bar currently but want to get a 24 inch. Gotta keep the chain sharp though.
The 500 sure is something else man, I love the fact that you use one because ever since I’ve been watching (long before I learned to make stumps) it’s been nothing but husqvarna and old Mac’s
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith thanks for sharing all your knowledge about chainsaws, felling etc…I burn wood for heat and have cut a fair amount of wood over my lifetime…I have used some of your more simple techniques to my benefit…I try to recognize my limitations and not go overboard …wish you would do more shorts…
Buckin, I heard a preacher say you will only be remembered for the problems you solve or the problems you create. That statement stuck .you are wise to solve problems like you do.😊
Exited for the next part of the journey and adventure of buckin billy ray smith and friends Peace love and good health to you and the family follow your spirit Love ya man ✌️❤️🌲🪵🪓🐝
I cranked rite into a Pony Shoe in a crotch of a big 60+ inch silver maple with my old Husky 395xp and instantly broke the chain before I could back out. Lucky that the entire bar was in the wood or the chain would have ripped me up pretty good. That was the last time that I've used a .3/8 .050 chain on my big saw. I've been running Stihl 404 skip chain with a square grind on a 32" bar ever since. I run skip tooth with 404 because I can keep the RPMs up and not over work the saw. I've have hit stuff 404 hard enough to rip the strap clean off off but I haven't broke a chain Yet. Blacksmith forged square nails and old barb wire are very very hard on chains lol. I've cut into quite a few while cutting firewood off of the edge of old cattle pastures.
Hope you enjoy Nova Scotia Actually, I know that you will. Good people and a stunning province. I've been here since the beginning and it keeps getting better. Cheers.
Other then a small portable mill theres no market for something with that big of limbs. We cut up to 8x12 with are little mill and just the logistics for moving the beam after cut is a pain, let alone moving the log before the beams are cut.
Even hitting steel won’t convince you to wear safety glasses I don’t get it. I cut without glasses in my younger years until I cut into the night and saw the sparks flying.
G'day Buckin, that's the thing about tradesmen like Donny after forty years he doesn't need to test this and check that he's past thinking now he feels 👍.
Do people get what happened here? When some people get shot, the doctor says: "A 16th of an inch to the right and it would have hit an artery, and you would be dead". You hit the artery. You cut a nail in half, the long way mind you, in some random tree that if you count the rings was nailed into it roughly over 70 years ago.
Is it just me or was someone running through the bush behind you Buckin? I saw something in the woods running off camera at 7.32 on the video. Just wondering lol
Hey there Mr. and Mrs. Buckin! My name is Rick, my wife and I watch you all the time. You and your wife actually shouted us out on your video about two years ago. We love the energy that you bring to this world. We love you bother!

My ole man always preached to me to make it look like it never happened once the job is done and you leave. That advice has carried me a long ways
Love how he gave the camera a thumbs up after the log rolled. Great job fellas. That’s a big piece of timber

Where there is a will there is a way. Buckin will always find a way! Well done BBR!
Cool video as always. Thanks for taking the time to share your adventures and knowledge.
Welcome friend
gotta love our merica brothers pickups .... nice n heavy ... half tractor...
It’s funny how you can feel the steel when you’re cutting and then the oh nooo. I just broke 2 teeth off my 28 in chain, oh well I will watch some of your sharpening videos 😅🎉
Love to see all that firewood stacked 😂

Some Buckin labeled Hickory shirts would be really nice!
see what we can do thx
Been running my 545Mk2, it's not a big bad saw, but dang that lil saw just rips, running a 18in bar.
I have that saw. Been running it for years. I love it too! I’m running a 20 inch bar currently but want to get a 24 inch. Gotta keep the chain sharp though.
Join the group Buckin. We do things the right way every time. Or stay inside and fade away.
Every time i see you cutting firewood i think “ look at all those 2x4s”. I know sawmills don’t want yard trees.
Thanks, Donny!!
Glad you saw it thru to the end....wanted to see that piece of steel. Looks like it was pounded into that tree 50+ years ago and you nearly missed it.
Exactly, brother
The 500 sure is something else man, I love the fact that you use one because ever since I’ve been watching (long before I learned to make stumps) it’s been nothing but husqvarna and old Mac’s
Love the channel. Useful informative content. ANyone dealing with firewood should watch it.
cheers
Blipping the throttle.
That tracor ! Its alawn mower!
BE KIND
Very good content
Mine super Buckin friend ❤
You make the journey to "Dust in the Wind" worth traveling.
I am curious to know if the loader on the tractor was bent or broken on this job.
Roll that log with that tiny lawn tractor!!!?…even I knew that was a waste of time!…lolol good Morning BBR…you are a master!
Wasn’t about to rain on his parade

Good words
"When I'm right, no one remembers, when I'm wrong, no one forgets.". Buckin's the exception that proves the rule
Fly safe, brother. Stay well.
it is fo sure some wood in a log like dis, i mean just the branches give wood ^^
Saw sounds crisp buddy
Buckin where do you find that DGP bar Oil at
I'm excited. and inspired 👍👍👍👍
That's a big tree!
Your coming East?that is AWESOME
You and tinman are really hard on saw's dropping them on the ground and beating them on the tailgate of your truck.
Thank you
Hi buckin!! I just got my 500i in from ripsaw. I cannot wait to run it! Take care and be safe.
Enjoy it
Let’s roll friends
How hot is the bar supposed to get when everything is oiling and working the way it should ? Thanks buckin love the videos!!! Keep being you
Exited for the next part of the journey and adventure of buckin billy ray smith and friends
Peace love and good health to you and the family follow your spirit
Love ya man

Thx MM
Hi there back at cha.
Well said Buckin’
I Want that 572!!
So happy with it
You are going to need a half day or more in the shop, just cleaning up all the saws used on this log!👍
Ha ha they get it right when I get home brother
That's a nice way to end the job this week! Good show for us and great job done! Work hard Buddy!!
And smart, fore the strong/old body 😉
Much love Buckin❤️🪵
I've been bitten buy the timber bug this stuff is a load of fun
I cranked rite into a Pony Shoe in a crotch of a big 60+ inch silver maple with my old Husky 395xp and instantly broke the chain before I could back out. Lucky that the entire bar was in the wood or the chain would have ripped me up pretty good. That was the last time that I've used a .3/8 .050 chain on my big saw. I've been running Stihl 404 skip chain with a square grind on a 32" bar ever since. I run skip tooth with 404 because I can keep the RPMs up and not over work the saw. I've have hit stuff 404 hard enough to rip the strap clean off off but I haven't broke a chain Yet. Blacksmith forged square nails and old barb wire are very very hard on chains lol. I've cut into quite a few while cutting firewood off of the edge of old cattle pastures.
💪💪💪
Hope you enjoy Nova Scotia Actually, I know that you will. Good people and a stunning province. I've been here since the beginning and it keeps getting better. Cheers.
Thx pal
There was no way that tractor was gonna move that log LOL!!
Dude that photo shoot was cracking me up 😂
Right ha ha
Buckin billy ray how was their steel in that tree ❤
Nail
Other then a small portable mill theres no market for something with that big of limbs.
We cut up to 8x12 with are little mill and just the logistics for moving the beam after cut is a pain, let alone moving the log before the beams are cut.
This was a set up prime for an Alaska mill
Super coool
light n routy
500i is absolute music to my ears.
S2!
Even hitting steel won’t convince you to wear safety glasses I don’t get it. I cut without glasses in my younger years until I cut into the night and saw the sparks flying.
Maybe if you ask nicely
Thanks to Donnie Walker.
That 500i is a beast!!
Heavy log!
I agree. If a person going to do a job do it.
Job well done
Thx
I enjoy seeing your life thru youtube - interesting and v informative - hashtag oldschool
Welcome friend
Ahwoooo get one 👍
Do you use normal gas oder special gas like aspen?
G'day Buckin, that's the thing about tradesmen like Donny after forty years he doesn't need to test this and check that he's past thinking now he feels 👍.
Yes sir
ITALIA SEI UN GRANDE TI STIMO
We love that you come here .. thx
✝️
It definitely sucks when you get in some metal especially in hardwood. You’re all done when you’re in hardwood.
Buckin
If the tree of that size was only 100 years old, why did it need to come down?
it had been topped years prior and was dropping massive limbs on his shop , dont top trees
Do people get what happened here? When some people get shot, the doctor says: "A 16th of an inch to the right and it would have hit an artery, and you would be dead". You hit the artery. You cut a nail in half, the long way mind you, in some random tree that if you count the rings was nailed into it roughly over 70 years ago.
