Thank You So Much Billy Ray For Putting These Videos Up. It Means Alot To Me. I Once Cut Some Large Trees While Living In Washington State. But, Now I'm 83 Years Old And Can't Do Any Of That Anymore. I Now Live In Geoegia, And The Largest Tree I Dropped Around Here( On My Place) Was 33" Across The Butt And Seventy Two Feet High. I Did Cut Alot Of Smaller Ones, But That Was Several Years Ago. I'll Never Froget Those Days, So A Big THANK YOU For Putting Up Your Films. It Means So Much To Watch Them. Thank You Again. You Take Care. AL BYERS.
I love watching you cut. Learn alot Everytime. I just started cutting. I do plans I learned from bucking billy to slow down take my time and planed out.
You have that 394 hummin, great video. I started cutting in the early 80s. all i knew was to park my truck farther away than the tree would fall. Didn't learn much for 17 years, then came youtube and i now tell the tree where to fall. You helped so much, thanks!
That looked like a long day but a successful one. A man who pinches nothing, in the cut and in presentation. You are an original down to earth soul. Thank you.
I do tree work during the day and then watch you do tree work when I get off not many people do that with their profession tree work has saved my life. when no one else wanted to teach me anything I watched your videos and a lot of things I figured out myself like you be kind love wins
Not too sure it will make structural timber, as it has lots of knots. Maybe good enough for fence rails, or some small projects. Wood is generally graded for particular uses.
It is a joy to see your love of what you do . My husband also loves working with trees. He is having to face some physical limitations but we are creative and determined to keep him doing what he loves.
Not sure what took me so long, but just now finding you. I love it already. Such a great attitude and example. Thanks for sharing your thoughts along the way. Keep up the GOOD work.
Thank you Ray .I'm no arborist but watching your channel gives me knowledge and raise my safety awareness of tree felling. Makes it easier for me to pick the right person to do the job instead of hiring just anybody with a chainsaw. Cheers! From Borneo.
The fact that you buck logs without your bar getting pinched shows skill! I’m still pounding plastic wedges in the kerf to keep moving. I got some big trees to take down and buck up soon, I’m gonna try what I saw you do here and see if I can get past the old habit. Great video, brother!
I was licking when I starte out this il timer showed me how run saw an a lot technical cuts I never used the wedge on my log cuts an got yelled at if I ripped them but ol bucking is a beast with power saw
Please watch the 17 part series here on YT called BC Faller Training Standard. I suggest taking notes. This shows you the cuts for bucking and falling. Good luck.
@@adelarsen9776 it definitely gives you a very realistic look and view into the life of a tree worker. and it does not matter if its logging falling bucking limbing all of those fundamentals are important to know and to learn and perfect because they will make u or anyone out there a better and safer cutter.
@@iffykidmn8170 You’re right, I saw that, but he is still miles ahead of me technique-wise. Big stick like that can be very precarious and I’m still at the level where I use them probably every other cut on a log that size. The skinny stuff, or stuff way off the ground is different 🤷♂
Love the comment your name is all you have. Have been running my own trim carpentry business since 2014. I have a great reputation due to my work, but more importantly, how I treat my customers. As for your comment about the younger generation leaning into the trades and hard work, from your lips to Gods ear. We need to pass on the hard earned knowledge of a career spent working for a living! Thanks for what you do and stand for.
Love watching and learning from you. Been cutting wood on and off for almost 30 yrs. Had an old elm that was leaning bad that yeas ago id dropped and hoped for the best in missing buildings. Now i have learned how and wear to place the undercut to lay it where I want it to go. Hard wood or giant trees like you have principles apply. Love your positive attitude and contagious smile
I always enjoy the videos, I really enjoy you're kids falling also. Physical labor has pay for everything that we have as a family. I really like when young people pick a trade.
I bought a 394xp in 1997. It currently has a 42" bar, 404 pitch, .063 gauge. I felled a 60" Sugar Maple with it, back in 2007. Still have the saw, and it still runs great.
MN, music to my ears. Awesome cutting... That's going to make some beautiful timber.. thanks for the videos, going to to several ash trees down in the morning. Be safe and have fun. Be kind to your self and others..
I learned something real specific from this video about bucking a big trunk that's suspended on both ends and I'm really grateful because it saves my saw and keeps me safer. Thank you!
I'm glad to hear that the younger generation are taking up these trades. Maybe allot of them have realized that putting yourself 100K in debt for college isn't really the best path. There will always be a need for plumbers, carpenters, electricians, mechanics, and of course tree folk (don't want to offend anyone lol). Very few want to do this kind of work anymore, and there is a good living to be made doing it.
In Canada, it is called "university," not "college." And it does not cost $100k. Provincial government in BC keeps university very affordable relative to what it costs in the USA.
@@WalkenDead Well, I do not know if I disagree with you or not. I worked in forestry in Canada during my summers. I paid my year's tuition in cash and had enough money to rent my own apartment for the whole year. Graduated debt-free. If I disagree with anything you said it is the assumption that university's sole purpose is to get employment. The point of post-secondary education is also personal enrichment. You can study anything that interests you. You can travel and meet people and just have a great time. I agree though that the trades are great and that there's a good living to be made in the trades. But I know a lot of tradespeople who get sick of it or get injured also. . . It's great to have a degree to fall back on if that happens. Isn't what you are really saying that university should not be as expensive as it is?
Nothing like the US. I went to U of C.and graduated in 2008. My Tuition was $6k.for the whole year. My wife graduated the same year from University of North Texas and her in-state tuition was $25k.
Buckin watched you from early days. Sent some money not alot but. Hoped it helped out. What i love is you help out people that dont have alot. I will send you more to help out. My son Thats 17 loves your vdo. Iam showing him how to use power saw. In usa we are still men and our sons will be better men than us. Ty love what you do for all u do for all the world.
I have seen you on tv before and I just found you on UA-cam about a week ago and I’m glad because now I can watch your videos every day and hope to cut some timber with you one day hopefully love the video friend 👍👍
Love your video. Keep them coming. Love your message to be kind to everyone. I have always been at home in the woods. Have only done a little falling in my younger days. But my dad and grandfather had a logging outfit in Southern Arkansas until my grandpa had a accident while working on a loader and back his back. He ended up selling the business before I could get involved. I have always feel that is ware I belong.
I've seen some of your comments, the "don't be mr good enough". I go by that standard. You don't cut a tree with a chainsaw, you cut a tree with all your Senses! You see, feel and think wile you are pushing the trottle! Keep up the good work.
Yea that's Logging Buckin . It's really good ta see ya buckin them logs , way to go Buckin . Ya look happy 😊 doin what ya love ❤ outstanding. Love wins
Measure twice cut once. Or when felling mature tree measure - measure - measure - measure and then come back again and repeat the entire thing a couple times. I really enjoy seeing large trees that I would be reluctant to cut under any circumstances perfectly dropped within a foot of the designated landing zone because of patience, planning and accurate measurement and adjustments when cutting. Billy Ray is one of the best! You may even have some nice clear grain sections in some of the red cedar to get some guitar tops or other acoustic instrument tops if you''re lucky.
My dear friend, you never cease to amaze me! Not only do you literally hold the door for the person behind you, but figuratively as well. It is evident in everything you say and do that you want everyone watching you to be successful in their endeavors, particularly with power saw work. Sharing every little detail of your vast experience is the greatest give back for all of us. In addition, you show so much joy in that giving. You'll never know how many people you have helped! Love you all...❤️❤️❤️ Lieutenant Bradley
Thanks for all your pro tips Buckin! I have a couple nasty leaning trees I have been putting off taking. You have given me the knowledge to attempt now. Never banged wedges before but will on both of these knarely old ash trees!
You just changed my outlook from going all out to just trying to improve things with the statement about Bearclaw just improving the flow. . Funny things about planting seeds. You never really know what will grow. Thanks Buckin and all you doing what you do to be kind.
Hi buckin hope yer all well. I just got my first chainsaw cert yesterday and I'm hopeing to start my own little business in the next couple of years. Ur such an inspiration thanks buckin.
That drone footage really lets ppl get a grasp on the size and skill level of whats happening in this video that might not have been around it and able to really put things into perspective
Great advice sir! The Mr. Good enough attitude is way too popular and people excell when taking that one more step. It does take will power no joke! Thank you for being AWESOME!
Hey buddy thank you so much for the videos I have run chainsaws and cut trees for over 30 years I learned something new every time I watch your videos my nickname is termite thank you so very much my friend with love from Alabama
Sir, The only reason I subscribe to your channel is to listen to your saw cut wood, it helps me go to sleep. Well, not the only reason, but I would have to speak to you face to face to describe why I love your channel.
From a fellow Canuck cutting small red pines here in Ontario, great work, your tree work is always something I can appreciate and your skills and respect for the trees are admirable
Hey Buckin I'm watching this video in the middle of the night so I've got the volume low and subtitles on, when you started buckin that tree the subtitles said music, laughter and then applause to the sound of the chainsaw, how appropriate is that? Great work!
Will donate more for more drone footage when those trees go down! You should do an aerial pull back shot when one goes down! Cool to see you just sit back and let that saw do it's thing once it's in the log makes long work days easier.

Nice to hear they're milling this. Should make some nice lumber.
Not too sure it will make structural timber, as it has lots of knots. Maybe good enough for fence rails, or some small projects. Wood is generally graded for particular uses.
@@hiscifi2986 I've heard that but I'm not knowledgeable enough to see it, lol.
@@hiscifi2986 you should see the stuff we send to the mill. It doesn't make beautiful clear lumber but it does make home depot 2x4s just fine.
It is a joy to see your love of what you do . My husband also loves working with trees. He is having to face some physical limitations but we are creative and determined to keep him doing what he loves.
Wow! Another Amazing Video Buckin! The precision in which you drop those trees is awesome! Again I've learned from your videos! Thank You! 👍🏻👍🏻

Hey Buckin I'm watching this video in the middle of the night so I've got the volume low and subtitles on, when you started buckin that tree the subtitles said music, laughter and then applause to the sound of the chainsaw, how appropriate is that?
Great work!
Love the video
Dang, our cedars in Virginia are usually fence corner post size. If you find a big one by our standards, it’s a good size for a pole barn post.
thanks 4 video. be kind.

Great job bucking as always God bless
Been milling Hemlock all weekend. Video coming. Very nice trees youre cutting there. Cheers

the song : "garden party" came to mind with one of your short videos
Danke!
Thx friend
Will donate more for more drone footage when those trees go down! You should do an aerial pull back shot when one goes down! Cool to see you just sit back and let that saw do it's thing once it's in the log makes long work days easier.
