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 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!!
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!!!
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.
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 appreciate YOU, buckin'! I tune in here and there, but you ALWAYS provide something informational or just some good wholesome content and a positive take away. Stay safe out there!
Love these videos!! Always cool to see how your thinking process is in certain situations 😊 it truly helps me back here on my end❤...and Buckin, it's an honor ta see ya sporting those sussys💪🪓🪵🌳
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 !
Thank you so much for your time as well. I have learned so much watching your content. Probably saved my life on the last 65 foot tree I cut just down. We needed to clear sky space to set up our Starlink antenna. Followed everything you share on heavy leaning dead trees. God's Speed my friend.
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!
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!
What a beautiful piece of land 🌳🌲❤. I love those ferns, thanks for being nice to them 😁 I hope you can get that piece of wood out, I'd love to see what you can do with it 🪵✨
Love the ferns...luv em" I've transplanted a few from across the hollow (northern exposure) to my hillside (southern exposure) and they have struggled in the heat and dryness but now several years later they are bringing me green joy and adapting to their new home. 🪴🌿🌱🌲
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 😲😳 👍🏴
I've cut down lots of trees in my time, but I am by no meens an arborist or logger. Yet I've always had a high respect for the trade, and not knowing a lot about it means, don't think you know it all ! Thk you, Billy, and to all professionals .. 🙏to all who paid the ultimate price.
I've never seen you wearing eye protection my friend. Is it because of your expertise? Blink really fast? Invincible? God bless you brother. Thank you for sharing and caring
Hey buckin! Nice to See you back kickin arround in the woods. U Looking good brother! Hope you doing well also. I am back in training too. I was sick and weak the last 2 years and lost 10 kilo..but now i getting stronger Every day. I wish you a great day! Love ya brother
Check out Doug McGuff MD He is one of the originators of the slow movement weight training. Also look into making bulletproof coffee... I've taken it to the next level by adding tons of extras to my coffee blender machine mixer... learned how to live on a liquid diet when i had a feeding tube directly into stomach while going through cancer treatment... 7 years ago. ✅💪🎶
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.
Loving these vids Buckin. Great to see you're going to save that wonderful burly butt log. Would be fantastic to see the resulting timber and the products that result. Very good series of videos. Cheers from HB NZ
I enjoy the heck out of your cutting videos! Way more than the hippie stuff. Those 2 trees that looked like they were leaning way left, you cut them and they went 90 degrease right!! Holy moley, how did that happen? You put them right where you wanted them to go!
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. 👍🏆🍀
Finally got to a last piece of standing dead Elm tree too. A small giant piece of timber for where it had grown out of the foundations of some old barn. I don't come across timber like it here. The weight of that timber, per volumetric area. You make a slice, and it leaves edges like pieces of marble carved up. I notice though the Elm is a wet timber green, that adds to the weight, and when exposed to air it does rapidly lose moisture which leads to cracking. But the timber still retains a high proportion of the original density and strength.
I've not cut doug fir ever, but heard it mentioned here for years. Elm is actually viewed as a kind of weed or pest here (and dangerous as a tree in general due to bettle attacks or whatever it's disease is). Cutting Elm is like spending time with a terminal patient, you know the news is never good. It's a timber though that has earned my respect, just by being around it. Poplar timber, sort of the same. I've still got some Scotch pine to go, and some Norway spruce or something. Don't know them, as yet. I have a little bit of oak, and some sicamore. The dead ash is it's own tragic story. All of these species surprise me in their own unique ways, the only way to really know a timber is to spend some time with it. They're not all the same.
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...
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 .
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!
Thanks Buckin' for all the content! I've learned so much from you. As I sit here in my "Get The Gullet" tshirt, I have a question for you. It might be a stupid question but how much does your face cut and back cut being horizontal to the ground affect where the tree falls (specifically if you have a tight window to drop the tree in). I've watched you talk about directional falling a lot as it relates to the crown and the lean but does it matter if you're stump is cut horizontal or no? Thanks for the videos! Take care and be safe out there!
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith Basically, how important is it that your face cut and back cut is perfectly horizontal (level) to the ground? I'm just a homeowner trying to clear my property. I have about 6-8 more trees to cut (already cut about 30)...these are big oaks (100' tall and 25-30 in wide on the stump). Just curious if it matters that your cuts are perfectly level to the ground. Either way, THANK YOU for all the insight. You have no idea how much I've learned from you! Side note...the final 8 are all kind of lined up....I wish I had the guts to cut them up and push them over with the final tree in the group! I'm just not that good! :) You're an inspiration! Thanks Buckin'
I think the idea of the horizontal cut has to do with the balance of the tree and the gravitational pull of the earth. Cutting on hillside or pruning limbs can be different but falling a full size tree just has to be as close as possible to be perfectly horizontal according to the law's of physics. That's my layman's explanation. 🪵

Thank you for all the knowledge, I have learned a lot from you, shout out from Collins tree service
Nice English shots on those alders I was cracking up😂
😂 every time I touch a saw wether it's cutting firewood or lumber.....that saying half measures availed us nothing always comes to mind😂
Absolutely beautiful burl maple!! ❤

Enjoying this series. That saw is nuts!

Lovely Quarter sawn Oak!!!$$$
That's the first thing I was thinking why is he not putting a wedge in the back of their LOL great job as always buckin God bless

Great content and attitude brother, excellent stuff
Love the cuttin videos😊
But dont over do it Mr. Buckin
Take care of that shoulder 💪
Deal
Greetings the cutting videos are great. Stay strong mind body and saw!
The burl hunters actually leave the burls connected to the roots and dig it out. Lots more money in the ground.
I love to watch these cutting videos!😊
Hey friends just finished haying the back 40 good day to all
Got make hay while the sun shines good day to you as well
Right on💪💪
Hi
Always best to do hay on the hottest day of the year 😂
Yeah it makes sense, the deeper the notch the further back the pivot point is and therefore more leverage for the fall
and short stump for sure that funny looking wood ^^
Hi Buckin. From Kentucky. Luv ya Brother
Nice work Buckin 💪🏿 great to see yah slaying with the harvey heavy hitter again 😁
Yer s is comin up
Billy your a gem mate. Love from Australia
I'mgoing threw now takeing out the maple before we select cut. Maple is so full of figure, just love it.

I hope you can get that piece of wood out, I'd love to see what you can do with it 🪵✨
Love the ferns...luv em"

2:03 haha making your own camera "tripod" with a chainsaw, that was awesome !

That's a sweet chunk of burl. I'd love to get a piece of that.
Hang loose Billy and Friends much love and Aloha from the Great Lakes 🤙🤙🤙
Sometime helping people doesn't help us.....
Chose the right ones
Just got my kilties from your site- I added them to the ones I already wear so I have two on each boot!
Good stuff thx for your support
Everyone seems to love them
Two on each boot, sounds like you are a serious worker...💪 Foot power
You need to have a drum set out of that wood
The one tree you wedged is the perfect example of Dont stand there and watch it fall.
That's all I burn up north is guitar wood. It's expensive, but it sounds nice.
Hi Ray very nice boots 🥾 ❤
My friend god bless 🇨🇦🥲🪵
She’s ripping that wood!! Dang old friend!!
