I bought my 359 off a local guy who rebuilds older saws. Went through it and made it like new but put a different muffler on it that didn't choke it out like the stock ones did and it is great, good on fuel and wants to work. The Husky 3 series is great in general. I love it. Light and lots of useable power.
“Find the saw that works for you” Amen to that!!!! Thank you for reinforcing principles and your experience Buckin. If people listen they would save tons of dough and time. You’ve saved me lots
You had me laughing so hard for most of this video. I thought for a moment Cleetus was going to jump out of the woodpile. I love you my brother and every morning I say a prayer for you!
Just recently came across Dyno Joe’s channel and good Lord! The man is a mad scientist and I love every second of it. Buckin’ hope you’re well brother. I pray for you and your family everyday! Much love!
Let 1 get away yrs ago and regret it…Zappy little buggers…that Dyno joe is a man of service…straight goods straight in the eyes….love ya buckin n family….matt in ky
Completely Agree with you buckin, the 500i is an odd saw for me, Ive been following your channel for a few years and I've learned so much. Your knowledge and honesty is awesome ! Ported saws in the UK are really rare. I was at the UK loggers champions last year and had the chance to try a hotsaws101 psykoized 500i that was the only one that ever wowed me ! Instantly cleared out in the smallest of timber / limbs. Enjoyed it so much when I had the chance to buy an MMWS 6100 dolmar I did. Now that is a sweet saw !
I had a 24” bar on my Jonsered 2171 and I’ve put a 28” bar on it now, what a difference in reach! Haven’t noticed any issue with power cutting maple. Full chisel round filed chain.
Billy I just saw you video on your axe dent. It brought back the times I was just like you. Boy did I cry thinking of the times I was in a spot that I ( by my self ) had to get out and get hrlp after getting out and able to call or just wate for someone to come and get me to hospital. I was out of it for over 9 months. And that was just the last time. People tell me I should write a book. Don't Think So Take Care All
Right on Buckin, that's a fine power saw!! I like the old carburetor saws myself. Somebody that Programs LS and Coyote Engines needs to program those 500i's.
It's amazing how much work and maintenance one has to do to make and keep a Husky work as good as a Stihl. Huskies are ok if all you cut is softwood, but it falls well short of the Stihl once you cut hardwood. Been there, done that.
Glad to see you’re doing better buddy. I love seeing these smaller saws pulling big ol bars. I’ve been working on 5 or 6 of my granddaddy’s saws that haven’t been run in a while. I think he’d be proud of me
Wood pile looks like your in good shape. I know what you are going through with your shoulder. Been trying to get my back in shape for months. Hang in there and don’t push it. 🤙♥️
Buckin I love your videos and been watching for a year now. I’ve learned so much from your videos. Not only about power saws but about life and truly love the message you send in your videos. On another note I’m not a logger or a tree guy but I do know engines to a degree. But every time I listen to a 500i at the top end of the rpm it sounds like it has a rev limiter on it in my honest opinion but I don’t truly know for sure but it sounds like it. Hope get better soon and can’t wait to see that little husky rip some wood soon.
Glad too see you're getting better ☺️ Please say hello to Cleetus. I'm still in the archives, just popping in here now and then. I'm glad to see he's still around 😄 Keep being patient, Buckin', you got this
9:40 Hilarious Disclaimer!! 🤣 Oh Buckin, either you missed your calling to be a comedian, or you really are suffering from horrible withdrawal symptoms!! Hope you’re soon well enough to clear-cut, limb, buck & split a few hundred acres & get your fix! Thanks so much for keeping the great content coming! Keep your spirits up 😊
That husky is awesome love to get Dino jo to pro shop my TS 700 it has 96 cc had the the old girl cutting a bunch of granite today glad to see you cutting again Buckin thanks for the tips once again!!!
Love how you beat up that 500i , makes me laugh . I have a old 670 Johnsered , it needs a rebuild, but I just loved it , a screamer . Now I go for smaller saws , my arm just isn’t up to it , kills my elbow . 👍🇨🇦
254 muffler mod 359 muffler mod 288 stock They cut like a charm❤ Depending what im doing They serve me well and I take care of them . Heat them first and cut 😊
I'm glad I watch videos from start to finish. Glad to see you on the throttle! Fully agree about finding the right saw for you, personally I'm narrowing in on my happy place (saw) definitely husky more I run them.
359 is an interesting saw. Had two of them. First I ported and it’s pull a 24” easily. Then I got crazy with that build. Second was stock with a muffler and it pulled a 28” no problem. 70cc on that platform would be fun to run.
G'day Buckin, I haven't used the 500i so I can't comment on it personally, but listening to your opinion Stihl needs to be informed about this issue of low revs under no load conditions so that the MS501i won't suffer from this and will have instant acceleration at no load and market leading power to weight ratios under maximum load.
Buckin my arse is my dyno I put a FE427 side oiler in my old 1968 f100 4wd manual transmission truck it weighs 3600 lbs dana 44 front 9inch rear end with 33x12.5s it's a screamer just like my Sthil saw
8 minutes into the video Your entire life of your is now then said if they haven't understood they need to understand it NOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!! YOU'RE A GOOD FELLA AND THERE'S PEOPLE OUT HERE THAT LOVE YOU. Don't worry though they will catch up with the education one day if they don't then it's on them I guess
Good to see that you took care of your mental and spiritual condition, your smile says it all when you started that saw. Joe has done a great job., he knows his saws.
Absolutely love the knowledge I've been getting from you here in north Georgia mountains! Quick question, doing my first sharpening on my stihl 32 inch chain. Stihl says using 13/64 5.2mm but I've read where 7/32 5.5mm holds better edge and throws bigger chips???? Which one do you prefer on 3/8 chain? Running stihl ms660. Thanks sir and keep them coming!
Howdy Buckin'!🤠 Ya know what sounds good this cold raining evening? Some of those PB Show cinnamon rolls!😋😋 Will be interesting to see if the little oiler can keep up with that big ole bar...Another downfall of these new fandango saws is the EPA oilers can barely oil the small bar they are sold with.🙄 Well....they maybe able to keep up if all they do is bbbaaarrrnnnt...bbbaaarrrnnnt!!!🤣
Hello, Buckin I Love your Daughters new truck? has some rust near the cab bed but repairable for sure ,Hey have you tried magnets strong magnets taped to the spots that need work this is for your shoulder I know your a hard head ,just try it and let me know if it doesn't help it Tj
Lol - saw dust in your slippers again bud 😂…good thing you didn’t have yer nicks boots on….you might’ve cut more! Lol…praying for the wing to get better!
Not a chainsaw guy but to me it sounds like that ripsaw 500i was bogging down a bit (dropping rpm’s)when it hit the smaller wood and the joe modded husky stayed at high rev through the small wood and rippums didn’t drop nearly as much. Is that what you are saying Buckin?
Hay I think it’s the computer on it have Donny put it on the computer diagnostic machine . One Moore thing your old corks that you had nicks put lugs on now the one thing I noticed on your boots that you showed on your boots was how the stitch was hidden covered over by the part of the leather sole you call it I do believe but my term maybe wrong but the boots did turn out nice although

Great job joe strong build sir!
Happy you are feeling better, Buckin. I'm undergoing some healing as well 👍
You had me laughing so hard for most of this video. I thought for a moment Cleetus was going to jump out of the woodpile. I love you my brother and every morning I say a prayer for you!
Glad you enjoyed it
Ur an inspiration brother Tom. Have a great weekend sir
@justinweaver8107 love you brother Justin!
Dyno Joe is awesome! Most straightforward and objective “saw guy” on TH-cam. The dyno don’t lie!!

I'm not a saw expert but totally agree the sound of the 500i barble to this husky sounds so much cleaner than that.
The smile at 17:38 says it all. 😂 I think most of us understand it perfectly too.
Thanks Billy Ray!
You bet
Buckin. Great to see you up and about. That little saw cuts. A Soon enough you will be out making a stump or two. ❤
I'm running a Stihl 211, but I still love watching these videos. Funny how that works!
I also have a MS211. There a good small saw.
I had a 24” bar on my Jonsered 2171 and I’ve put a 28” bar on it now, what a difference in reach! Haven’t noticed any issue with power cutting maple. Full chisel round filed chain.
" you don't learn nothing unless you're nuts" ♥️ it!

Happy Valentine's Day to you all with love from the Alvarado's👊🙏💝😎
I started writing my first post before we got to the end of the video and by golly my buddy Cleetus did make an appearance...love it!
He's been missed.
It's good to be a little nuts 😉 glad your feeling better, making me smile ✌️
Glad to see you’re doing better buddy. I love seeing these smaller saws pulling big ol bars. I’ve been working on 5 or 6 of my granddaddy’s saws that haven’t been run in a while. I think he’d be proud of me

Little late but I just watch you a don't watch those other guys you the 👑 of the saw show your awesome anything you do Have good evening Jason
I know how ya feel we had a bunch of branches fall due to last snow storm we had I was excited to get the saw out
Joe did a great job on that saw!!
P.s. this video is lacking in interjections🤣🤣🤣
yer funny
Been learning from you for a few years now love the channel my neighbor just gave me all the trees on his lot 32 trees gonna be a chopping fool 😂
good man
G'day Buckin, I haven't used the 500i so I can't comment on it personally, but listening to your opinion Stihl needs to be informed about this issue of low revs under no load conditions so that the MS501i won't suffer from this and will have instant acceleration at no load and market leading power to weight ratios under maximum load.
That hybrid would be a sweet east coast saw, where we run short bars, I have no use for a bar over 20 inch cutting local firewood.
Man, this is entertaining info! Hope the arm heals quickly.
thx Joe Joe
@4:35 That's one hell of yoyo! 😀
Hope the iornhorse is doing better.

Good to see that you took care of your mental and spiritual condition, your smile says it all when you started that saw. Joe has done a great job., he knows his saws.
Joe is the man!

Yes!! TikTok mentality! Nailed it!

You keep a sharp chain but the old jack knife don't look too sharp there Buckin!
Lol your hilarious 😅 That looks like a sweet build!! Id really like to see it up against Tinman’s homelite!!
Appslo please watch and don't frast forward because buckin explains everything he does and I love that.

Joe knows!
Awesome video buckin!!
good thx
awesome saw billy ,godbless dyno joe .peace an love from scotland
Stuey
Your point on 21:54 is exactly why the 500I has a problem called the 462.
straight goods
Small mount? 24 inches? Well that's too small. That's what she said! 🤣
Always wanted a 357xp modded. Little laser. Enjoy yourself.
BOX OPENING!!! WEEEEEEE! BE KIND!
Lol - saw dust in your slippers again bud 😂…good thing you didn’t have yer nicks boots on….you might’ve cut more! Lol…praying for the wing to get better!

Wicked little saw. Headed to dyno Joe's now.
Like saw on left sweet Jason
Somebody's feeling better!
I see that 359 has a 455 rancher clutch over on it 😎
Lets ya switch over to a side adjuster instead of a front adjuster. Super common too so it's a great modification.
Was tightening a weedeater blade with stihl tool 1 time and weld broke and my hand met the handfiled tooth…just a story
