I don't get a lot of down time in my tree business, when I do I enjoy catching up on your channel buddy. Thank you for the positive energy the world so needs today. God Bless ALL!
Billy your sole is golden. We're lucky you share it with us. So many of us young and old would do well to learn to file and learn to live as better people. Or at least learn where to look in our selves to become better people. It would be awesome to hang out on a tail gate with buckin Billy. Until then keep filein fellin, livein n learnin.
I'm about 1 hr in to this video at the moment. I put a new Stihl chain on I purchased a couple years ago, 2weeks ago. The first thing I did was hand filed that machine grind so it would actually cut and last. I haven't had to sharpen it in 2 weeks of off and on cutting. Green Ash, Oak and maple. Some stuff was 36" around. Probably 4 -5 chords of wood. Buckin' you truly are a master at filing and showing us how to keep it cutting. No gadgets just the feel of the steel. Love it!
I started watching you years back because I was fascinated with the vintage saws, I share the same enthusiasm for the old iron, years later the advice and inspiration I've received from all of your content is invaluable, thank you so much for all you do Buckin keep um Rollin my friend
Buckin even us old men and women as I am 65 yrs young in an old man body but I do refuse to allow life to whip me and I do enjoy teaching what I know so by watching all ur videos I do learn more plus in the beginning of watching u I thought of course u r crazy but hey I think that is the secret to life by being somewhat crazy but safe sir buckin all I got to say is thank you for just being a simple minded country boy as I am also
You've helped me more than I could ever describe. When I first started doing firewood I couldn't sharpen my chains for the life of me . Thanks to you Buckin I am able to sharpen correctly. Thank you for all of you knowledge and help my friend 🙏
Buckin, you are really on to something I think with that Baby C. For it to be basically cutting at the same speed as square ground is super impressive. And given the fact the double bevel files are so expensive nowadays it could be a game changer!
I am a working stiff, too. Marine Sergeants are that way. You might say that I grew up at Parris Island, SC in the summer of 1966. Responsibility goes with that job. I will be 79 in a month, so I cannot do the things that I used to.
lol... ive spent my life slavin stacking bricks feeding chippers, digging your ditches, I was a devoted husband for years. I lost it all and all I want is my hot rod that none of that ever gave me...😂😂 got nuthing else to strive for Im old and broken just wanna have what fun there is left in life...lol...guess it really is a two way street...no one knows the answers to life, we each have our own.
Buckin you have to get a semi mud flap and screw it down on your tailgate, you wont believe the difference. It makes workin on saws so much more pleasant.
Great video, entertaining and informative as always. No idea how many vintage saws you own but imagine many and therefore intermittent use of any particular unit? One might get skipped for? Years? Wonder what you do to preserve between uses, would you be winterizing after each use? Annual winterizing of all? Some other system? Or just let fate decide and fix as you go?
That Husqvarna Bar is a "painted" Sugihara.. They are a good solid bar. :) Wonder if there is a price difference for the Grey Paint. :) Good show BTW. :)
Just wondering how often you tune up the bar? Thank you for all your saw tips. I run 3 Huskys including one old 268 that I put a big bore top end on. love it!
Hey Billy I would love to see a session on what causes chain stretching and how to avoid. I cut a lot of firewood and since I moved to a more powerful chainsaw I have noticed I am constantly tightening and replacing chains due to chains stretching.
These videos are a trip I love it,and the quality is impressive. I ran across this stuff yesterday by accident I can't quit watching. Where in the world are you at?
Hi buckin,I've been following you you for a last three years . I have 2 mccullchainsaws i need your help on getting the, to run . But my firstroblem is replacement gasket for the top of the McCullough 10 10 pro.
Thank you BBR for teaching us, this was a nice lesson. An off topic question for you: what do you think about the husky 272 xp? Have you ever tried it? I mean the old ones
You're confusing me a bit now billy mate, you just just said no gullet and you're not cutting, but on another video where you where you were showing us how to use a double bevel file, you were reiterating the importance of no gullet on full chisel chains.anyway love your videos mate! You're 1 top guy!! Much appreciated.
Buckin: two questions: 1. Do you spray your chain and bar with Lucas chain spray? I do and I find the saw runs better and pinches less and 2. Do you use a bench grinder on your rakers? Saves a lot of time and if you keep the proper shape no trouble.
I kind of have a question regarding the rakers also on a “ground” chain…. How often do u file rakers if at all while running the chain square filed or ground????
All chain that is sharpened (to a point in its life) needs to have its depth gauges addressed. Just remember that the shorter the cutter gets that the fewer times that you’ll have to address the “rakers” (depth gauges). DON’T use a static gauge similar to the kind that you “MIGHT” put on top of the chain/bar but use a dynamic style similar to the ones that BBR uses. Husky makes one and I “think” that even Stihl has one but I’m not sure on Stihl. Remember that the chain actually rocks back and forth so the shorter the cutters get the bigger the bite of wood they take if you use the static style, and that’s why you need to use that dynamic type that I’m talking about. Carlton is the one that Buckin prefers but they are made from “UNOBTAINIOM” whithout a bank loan 😮 BUT they are very good and a file doesn’t seem to touch them whereas the others it seems to.
Buckin, because of my MS I have a little trouble getting my left hand to follow the actions of my right, so I just file both cutters from my right hand side. And other than being hard on files (and needing more frequent replacement) do YOU see any issues with that? The saw cuts straight and even my friend that has been in the tree service for years (he was a climber for many years until his knees just wouldn’t allow for it) said that it’s a great cutter. I’m just curious and would like some opinion(s).
Hey buckin billy ray I need a question answered I just hung an old double but axe and sharpened it but I’m still not happy with it is it possible I can mail it to you and fix what I did wrong and make a video on a proper restoration
I do not hand file rocked chains. I put rockedhand filed it since. on boththem on havemy chain grinder. I got a Stihl 024 that I rebuilt. Its chain was rocked on both sides. I reground it to 30 degrees and it cut like a houseafire. I have hand filed it since.
Hey buckin I've got a question for ya. I have a 76cc poulan super 33. I want to throw a longer bar on so I'm not breaking my back. I'm thinking a 32 or 24. The problem I'm running into is the rpms. They only get about 6500. Would the bar length cause a problem? It comes with an 18in bar and I'm not liking it lol
What kind of saw is it? Lots of questions here but not a lot off information about it. Please give more information. Never mind, I just saw it. How’s the tune for it? Does it burble (four stroke) a tiny amount when the bar/chain is mounted? If not then it needs better tuning.
@@ToddAdams1234 I have it tuned to factory which is 6500rpms. Sounds good and cuts fine. Definitely not winning any speed contest. Had plenty of torque just cuts slow cause of the rpms
@@ChevyGuy70 I’d recommend having it ported but that’s most likely cost prohibitive, so you might want to look into getting a different saw😮 Sorry for being the rain on your parade but I’ve tried.
@@ToddAdams1234 Saw is definitely a keeper 😂 I like collecting old saws and running em. I'd love to get it ported but I definitely don't have the money as a UGA college student. Maybe one day. Thank you brother for responding and letting me know your thoughts 👍
Madsens calls it a triangular chisel bit file. They have an online catalog but if you order you must call and TALK to them. I was in service and I preferred that style of business because it ultimately helped out the customer.

Lots of love from Sweden bud and thank you for the kind words❤

What an experiment

Hey buddy I enjoy ur videos thanks for sharing❤✊
That's very interesting. I'd like to see you put a good grind on one side and a standard round file on the other. See what happens then
already done that it pulled to the grind side its on the channel
hi billy i bought a sweater and i like what you are doing
Just wondering how often you tune up the bar? Thank you for all your saw tips. I run 3 Huskys including one old 268 that I put a big bore top end on. love it!

I'M LOVE IN THE bbr experience !
Yep nice detailed video and explanation
Buckin I get the C, eh! I was lost but now I.... C 😁😳
Go buckin!💕
These videos are a trip I love it,and the quality is impressive.
I ran across this stuff yesterday by accident I can't quit watching.
Where in the world are you at?
I have a rotary zip with the 7/32 grinding wheel can I also use that to do fix messed up teeth
Hi buckin,I've been following you you for a last three years . I have 2 mccullchainsaws i need your help on getting the, to run . But my firstroblem is replacement gasket for the top of the McCullough 10 10 pro.
👋 Howdy from northwest Arkansas.@44:32 Thought filing hard was needed but no. Just "Two hairs and some air" Bob Ross would put it lol.
Thank you BBR for teaching us, this was a nice lesson.
An off topic question for you: what do you think about the husky 272 xp? Have you ever tried it? I mean the old ones
You're confusing me a bit now billy mate, you just just said no gullet and you're not cutting, but on another video where you where you were showing us how to use a double bevel file, you were reiterating the importance of no gullet on full chisel chains.anyway love your videos mate!

HECK YEAH VIEW IS GREAT BUD!!
Hi Buckin, Mark here from UK 🇬🇧 and lutys chainsaw mods TH-cam.
When can you tell when your rakers need to be adjusted

NO. the ony grinder i use is the simington
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith ok so when ur say hand filing square file do u have to touch up the rakers at all?

Is angle about 1degrees when you finish up filling? Ron. Pa.
Buckin what brand files are u using? Always seem sharp and cutting clean.
I believe that those are Oregon brand, but I could be wrong.
Teach the young men to be gentlemen by being someone to morally look up too. Agreed.
Hey Bucking Billy how do you get a saw to throw curly Qs an what I mean is the long chips
Hey buckin billy ray I need a question answered I just hung an old double but axe and sharpened it but I’m still not happy with it is it possible I can mail it to you and fix what I did wrong and make a video on a proper restoration
Looks good
I just have to comment and say hello from Sardis Arkansas
yes i love it
Your good
RIP Andy 'The Harmless Farmer'
thanks 4 video. be kind
Come get a Rocky Mountain Way. Need some tunes.
Are you going to grind full sides
Heck Yea!!!
You are Awasome I watch you every night
Your wood pile is looking a little low my friend ,I think me and Sarah need to come out and help you Buck some wood LOL Tj
Hey Buckin what is the reason for a baby C
Good. Binhere. Ron PA.
thankyou
I have yet to throw away my chains, and I am proud of it, look after your chains and they will look after you
Good
There is no way that I would hand file that chain. It is chain grinder city!😊
I do not hand file rocked chains. I put rockedhand filed it since. on boththem on havemy chain grinder. I got a Stihl 024 that I rebuilt. Its chain was rocked on both sides. I reground it to 30 degrees and it cut like a houseafire. I have hand filed it since.
Diameter of file you are using?
Are you going to grind both sides
👍👍👍
From baby C to baby shark. Maybe the more gullet the straighter the cut ?
AMEN, IF YOU CANT GET DIRTY YOU MIGHT AS WELL GO PUT YOUR PERFUME ON
Stay here the whole time no issues
Hey buckin I've got a question for ya. I have a 76cc poulan super 33. I want to throw a longer bar on so I'm not breaking my back. I'm thinking a 32 or 24. The problem I'm running into is the rpms.

The world needs more BBRs in it.
Hey Buckin what is that file called with the triangular edges where do you get them
I believe they call them a double bevel. Any good saw shop will have them or online
Madsens calls it a triangular chisel bit file. They have an online catalog but if you order you must call and TALK to them. I was in service and I preferred that style of business because it ultimately helped out the customer.
USING? Heavy on on e side.
Heck ya
She cuts like a jewish deli LMAO
perfect sense
Awesome live
