Axe🪓- turning garbage into a treasure

[@henryo3607]

Good job keep being yourself , your the real deal , I’m married with two boys that love cutting and splitting wood , we all enjoy very much what your doing , you are our tv , we don’t watch the news either , keep up the good work

[@kennithmedlin3589]

You’re a good guy Billy don’t ever change. When I watch your videos it puts me in a good frame of mind. A kinda comeness comes over me thanks buddy.

[@OldVermontGuy]

Greetings from No VT (USA) - I hope everyone in the Buckin Army, their families and friends are well. Thanks for all the hard work generating the daily video, always an uplifting experience for us all. Since beginning to watch your channel last fall, I have rescued and re-hung about a couple dozen scrap pile axes, sledges, hatchets, hammers plus a weird tool called a mutt cutter. I have given away about half of my output so far. Most of the old steel is so solid it is freaky compared to the new stuff you see. For most I have hand carved handles from some old white oak scraps and they are awesome working tools. Even though I have dabbled in wood working for 40+ years and have a full workshop I had not done this type of rescue before. Thanks Buckin for giving me a new "hobby".

[@michaelwhiteoldtimer7648]

NICE TO HEAR BET THEY ARE PRETTY

[@OldVermontGuy]

@@michaelwhiteoldtimer7648 Thanks. Everyone's kids are "beautiful" so I am not an objective judge, but other people have said they were beautiful. I just finished a restoration on a "Genuine True Temper" hatchet my late father got in the early 50's which has been laying around neglected for years. I wish I could share a picture here. I used Buckin's techniques so it is very solid, functional and gorgeous. It will now be my personal "shop" hatchet.

[@trucker8666]

I just found his channel, this guy is funny, cool and knows what he is doing, and explains it for you, going to start seeing his channel, the camera likes him

[@farmlessfarmer5729]

Buckin you are absolutely the best kind of Weirdo out there! I dare say that a fair number of us subscribers are perfect weirdos in our own right as well, and as of today we number over 160,000! Thank you for putting a smile on our faces once again. It’s a very good time for everyone in the world right now to follow your words of love and kindness. Good luck to Hogan on the climbing job! It has been a true pleasure watching him mature over the years on this channel. Thank you for sharing so much of your life with us. Aaron.

[@ishure8849]

What happened to your farm ?

[@farmlessfarmer5729]

Never had my own farm, just spent a good deal of time on my uncle’s. But the handle comes from a friend of mine a long time ago that saw the things I own and how I was fixing something and told me “you are a farmer but you’ve got no farm.” Haha. Just as an example I do own an old farm tractor (picture) and I live in a pretty regular neighborhood where no normal people own tractors.

[@ishure8849]

Well Aaron there's nothing wrong with having a tractor and no farm is it a Ford 3000 ? You never know mate you may get one one day it's a very important job and in these times people are being reminded of that 👍.

[@farmlessfarmer5729]

Thanks for your kind words and I’ve always thought about a small farm if one ever came our way somehow. My tractor is a 1956 Ferguson F40. Built right at the beginning of the Massey-Ferguson merger so the same tractor was also available as a Massey Harris 50. I use it for everything I can think of around my yard and I run a grader blade on the back for a local church every now and again to fix their parking lot. I occasionally take it to the grocery store to remind people around here that this used to be a farm town. All the kids get a kick out of it.

[@ishure8849]

Righteo the blue colour threw me , I've got a 1961 Massey Ferguson 35 it's a handy little unit no computers 👍

[@Finom1]

Our family loved your hour long inspirational and educational video!!! God Bless and Protect you and your family!!!

[@davidwhiren817]

Buckin" you are a serial axe rescuer !!! Breathing new life into what many would consider to much labor & a lost cause . So often in the tool market , older is better & this can mean much better ! GOD bless you brother !

[@karlsoffthegrid1378]

Watching the craftsman breathe life into an old axe never gets old.We all have value!

[@The1948Pan]

Just found you last night. Today I hit up my local trailer shop, he sells hammer and axe handles cheep. Today I hung my first axe head! Was gifted it from a good friend! I'm very happy with the stance and feel. I'll burn and sand the handle then add linseed oil to it. Thanks Buckin' Billy! Subbed!!!

[@nancybrown8026]

Billy Ray, As always I love your restorations or is that resurrections of old axes. But even more, I love the patient mentoring you do with Hogan and how much pride and passion he shares with you in your life work. Like always show up with your equipment ready to work. Bring a backup, and remember safety first. Congratulations on raising such an outstanding young Buckin'.

[@breadstav4193]

No Fear in love Buckin. Love Wins this war we are in, were standing strong in Holland Michigan USA. We're working in a grocery store for the world's largest retail grocer, were totally exposed yet have faith the good Lord will see us thru this mess as we are keeping people stocked up on groceries and calming them down by being kind as they come thru our checkout line. Good to hear the draw knife. Just wanted to say blessings and aloha to ya Buckin and the soldiers of kindness.

A swivel air coupler will make using that die grinder a lot easier. It would allow the hose to bend at the tool and not be in your way. Especially for those tight angles. Love the content. Thanks for making it.

If you’re using watco make sure that the rags don’t self combust. I have had them piled in a bunch and they started their own fire at least 4 times. I thought it was an excuse for a person setting their house on fire once but it happens. I even bundled a bunch together in a sandpit at work and came back to ashes twice. The back of the work truck was smoking on the way home once..
