Just got a 372 with a light weight bar. It's my first big saw. Thank you Buckin for all the videos so I knew what saw to get.

[@BrandonWeinmann]

Just love this model!

[@carlzirk]

@@BrandonWeinmann I got a great deal on the saw used. It was already upgraded. Exactly what I needed.

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Yoo betcha sir

[@aarondodge1913]

The suspender and stuff is all awesome stuff, but I want my shuclank T-shirt!

[@Helga____]

That would be a good one 😄

[@moritz842]

I‘d love to have a shirt like this

[@byronroubanes1617]

Buckin, was out at the scout camp (Ohio) doing some clearing and bucking today and the guys had long bars. You had some positive influence with this! Thank you!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

This is excellent to hear it will make them better cutters and filers

[@304firewood]

The great 365 can't believe their gonna stop making that saw I love mine and that's the only saw I have great stuff your doing buckin keep it up

[@ibbylancaster8981]

Man, I just love these big saws. I hope that you get down around North Carolina in the lower 48 so I can shake your hand and thank you in person for everything you do for us all. Much love to you Buckin. Myrtle Beach isn’t far from where I live 🤔🫡

[@mpccenturion]

8 inches of snow today. Hung the saw ùp for the day. Cheers. Have a great weekend!

[@nikky3piece452]

1-2 feet of snow coming! I'm in Minnesota 😮

[@mpccenturion]

Canada here. The snow has been over the car and van most of the winter. It melted to grass and we are in it again. Be safe sir! Cheers

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

Buckin, great job. You have taught me so much thank you. Your a blessing to all of us wood Addicts. Stay blessed Keep it between the ditches. P.S. i havent seen your cousin cletus around in awhile is he ok?

[@GertRupczyk]

❤Great video as always. Love when you show different perspectives

[@paulborden2544]

Good info makes me want a longer bar.

[@Brian2bears]

Mr. Smith, very timely with the bar adapter content...well done sir...

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Oh? . Glad to help

[@edwardwilliams9923]

I had a 562 given to me!! Needed to be put together and it is now my cord wood saw!!

[@Ken-yn8ps]

Seems like I should have know this. More great info from Buckin'. I will soon have 28 and 36 in bars for my 288xp!

[@burgerslave101]

just got a 32" husky lite bar for my 390, and i love it. just needs the full wrap. Soon.

[@WildAcresFarms]

The Husky bar is made by Sugihara. Fantastic quality, steel is unmatched in durability. But it’s the heaviest lightweight bar out there. Very close to the weight of a standard bar, compared to a Stihl ESLight or the slightly heavier Tsumura.

[@danbarth9421]

Awesome!!! I literally pulled my 28inch lightweight stihl bar off a saw to put on my 372 rhis morning, but the adapter i bought is not the right size for the studs...my fault totally!!!! Thats crazy you put this video up today!! I wonder if on a 28inch, i should go to the knockout like ya did on that 32?? Ill give er a shot, but have to wait on my new adapter😅😅 and i wish everyone the best of luck on this channel on winning one of the powersaws....that would be a complete honor to own one that has been ran from BBR....thats like finding a diamond on the rough brother....love wins, love this community like no other❤❤

[@thepredator666qc4]

So soo clear when you explain buckin oh my i love it 😊

[@tome.joyner887]

Work hard...Be honest and be kind! Those words touch my heart every time I hear you say them Buckin. I have been with you for around six or seven years and about a year or so back I said something unkind about you and the Lord will not let me forget it. I want to ask your forgiveness my friend. I want to publicly apologize and say that I am sorry and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me. You have helped me so much over the years and you have lifted my spirit more times than I can count. I love you Buckin!

[@DavidSmith-qg4dd]

NICE VIDEO I love your work and I love the stuff that you Show on your videos.

[@atvcampingadventures1728]

I just love the 372 but they stopped selling them here in Australia a very long time ago, good stuff buckin 👍

[@martyrutter3630]

That’s a good looking truck. Just noticed you have installed a top. 👍

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Yes sir ready to travel

[@jirusjirus9322]

I am wishing you safe travels always. When you get to Rip Saw please make time for a few minutes of drumming in Pittsburgh... I will have my kit ready for you. 🪘 Bring Nick Pixel along maybe Rex will be ready to try the mandolin...✅🎶🪕

[@brackenprofaizer2601]

If you decide to auction of a 592xp I just might be obligated to buy them fancy suspenders!

I appreciate that!

[@JohnBrunner-ym6qj]

Thanks buckin for the shout out the camera definitely added 10 pounds lol my fiancé did make me look huge lol thank you so much for your content I had a 365 years ago I loved it wish I still had it but if I can win one of your giveaways I will definitely run the Stihl lightweight bar 28 or 32 Ps I am 100% ok with you sharing the photo love you brother

[@robert4027]

Mr Buckin Sir. you look like you've been loosing weight 💪💪💪. live healthy eating healthy. . awesome video thank you....PS. I open them tiny oil holes on the bar with a drill bit 💪

[@Timberjack.loggers]

Love the saw looks very powerful but a bit heavy . I personally only run the stihl bar a chains regardless of brand of saw I find they last a lot longer . Great combo great video 👍

[@mattlynch2823]

Funny, thats exactly what I use that style of raker gauge for too! They work great for cleaning bar rails, not so much for checking rakers!

[@KAMP8505]

Just picked up the 562 MK II

[@KAMP8505]

Buckin! I believe the tsumura premium light bars are lighter than the stihl bars. At least the 24” version is.

[@mikevictor3698]

Wicked combination right there 😃

[@michaelbrooks5111]

HI Buckin' billy, I have the 365 chainsaw that is a beast I love that saw.:) I like your new truck very nice.

[@rickstafford5316]

They sound so good!

Any love for the 272? I have both 272/372 and love them both

[@wesleyfarina]

Nice glasses buckin 😎👌

[@farmeronthree]

Nice I learned today I can use my Stihl bar on a Husqvarna saw. Sold the Stihl but I kept the bars

[@michaelcook292]

I have a 36 light on my 395 but my 592 and 562 the bar adjustment is bigger so you have to make those bigger also

[@JgJg-p2f]

KZbin sucks ! Don't Thank KZbin ! Thank the viewers and subscribers young buck . 👌👌👌

[@JgJg-p2f]

KZbin = 💩

[@MrBogieboy01]

I have the exact opposite dilemma😂 i was given macculough and husky bars and all i own is stihl saws.... however, about 5 min with a carbide in a die grinder, and voila! A stihl sized D009 bar 😂😂😂

[@jonmccormick6805]

Somebody's gonna be happy!

[@jamiebarkingspider5419]

That was Ace Buckin ❤ Im loving the 365 i just got , I got a surprise

[@bushleague3472]

After about 12 years of running mine stock I finally ground that restriction fin off the transfer caps, cut a couple gill slits in the muffler, removed the restrictor caps off the jet screws and retuned. Its a whole new saw now, essentially a 372 with a muffler mod.

[@jamesstethers8173]

I have a husqvarna 372xp clone saw and I’ve bought 3 different bar adapters now and none of them have fit the bar studs, I don’t know if the are slightly different on the clones, it fits over the studs but not where the bar rides, the husky bars fit perfectly on the studs. Last time I tried slightly drilling out the holes in the adapter but it immediately snapped the hole off. Not sure the best approach. Bought a nice sugihara light weight bar in the stihl mount, planned to use on the husky clone.

[@MATT.MAN-PEACE-LOVE]

A bar adapter can be made with a old piece of metal drill couple holes and use a file to get the perfect fit ✌️❤️🌲🪵🪓🐝

[@Alexhulk]

Funny to see you in front of your new truck! Modern buckin Hihihihi

[@antoniomorgado5304]

i prefer my old 372xp to a New 372xp x-torq. It´s my opinion. But god to see you doing giveways!

[@austindenotter19]

Not opinion but fact. x-torq had a lot of problems. Best to convert back to non x torq.

[@derddkdkidkdk1]

Funny when husky guy's uses Stihl bars & almost every guide bar manufacturers try to help them make a better bar lol kinda like a Ford guy who says they beat chevys on the track but have a LS under the hood.😂😂😂

[@EricChmelarsky]

Hey Hey now. Gonna do 365 next. Just a tuned down version of the 372. Watch the walkers saw shop video, he shows you how to convert it to the 372😮. I think Bellhopper does a video also.😊. You can also convert to a non X-tourq version too.

[@in4merATP]

6.5mm husky tensioner pin, for anyone wondering what size if you want to employ a drill for the tensioner holes.

[@graficafoto7917]

HI BILLY RAY, EXCELENT AND FUNNY VIDEOS!, I HAVE A HUSKY 365, WOULD YOU USE IT FOR RIP SLABS WITH A 36 INCH BAR?, COULD YOU GIVE ME SOME ADVICE?, THANKS A LOT MAN!

[@michaelnewman-ds3fr]

Can’t wait to see it cut! Good day to all hope everyone has a great weekend!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Me too

[@peelnation]

Quick question bbr, how does one avoid getting pinched when boaring into hard leaners? I got pinched just as i was ready to pull the saw out after creating my hinge. Luckily i had another saw behind me and cut the rest of the back cut which released it. I dont think ive seen such a lean.

[@waynetharp]

Leave yourself a bigger hinge, especially on dead trees. If your saw got pinched, then the weight of the tree actually collapsed the hinge wood. It happens sometimes...be safe!👍

[@BrandonWeinmann]

As you start the back cut, slip a wedge in once you have room from the bar. Slipping a wedge in once there is room will keep tree from sitting back on bar. Good safety practice from having tree come back on you.

[@chevy7134]

STIHL makes there bar mount different for a reason, but I sure do like using them light weight bars on my 592.😂

[@DavidHolder-o3m]

Hi why do you pull the cord when you turn off saw please let me know interested David uk

[@shanereynolds5971]

To relieve pressure on the flywheel. You will see the cord jerk back when he shuts them down.

[@braydensawaska7929]

Can I run a 32”bar on a stock husky 385xp?

[@PlanCthruZ]

I did see the glasses. Heh.

[@dantaylor5780]

Do you think the 562 to much saw for the average home owner who collects firewood?

[@BrandonWeinmann]

562xp is a great all around saw. Big enough to cut large trees but light enough for fuels reduction projects such as thinning and cutting firewood. They also can be set up with the full wrap and bucking/falling dogs which makes it like a small falling saw. Have owned one and loved it!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

No I actually think it’s perfect for that

[@Gasguzzler76]

Buckin' what do I have to do to put my name in for a chance to win a husky power saw? Love ya brother.

[@MATT.MAN-PEACE-LOVE]

If you spend $25 at Buckinbillyray.com it will enter you to the saw draw tune in live tomorrow when buckin will announce the winner also there will be another saw up for grabs next month! Thank you and good luck! ✌️❤️🌲🪵🪓🐝

[@waynetharp]

If I could only have 1 saw...Hands down my choice would be any version of the 371/372!!🤟

[@juliomcdermott4696]

Im watching a bloke in crocs with his hoodie tucked in his tracksuit pants. He's amazing. He's the real deal. And he's giving the best info on the internet.

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Lololol😊. Evolving indeed

[@rooster3019]

Don't forget to turn the oiler up to max. The other method I saw on Bjarney,s KZbins that I had not seen before was where his 572 and 592 fitted with Stihl long and light bars, when his chain would derail while clearing brush, he would flex the bar (bend it) to get room to refit the chain without need to retighten.

[@Brandon.Fischer]

Do you have preferences on bar profiles? I don’t like how tall Stihl bars are compared to Husky.. Im getting used to it because I have quite a few ES lights right now, but Im used to something a little different.

[@dibiase9502]

Any chance you have ever owed or run any of the old Stihl 1111 series saws? 051,075,076? Just got my grandfathers old 051 and going to rebuild it into a 076super I hope. Maybe do some milling. Just wondering. Thanks for your message. I just found you a month or so ago through your axe videos and your positivity hooked me. I’m about six months sober and your channel has been a nice surprise for me. Keep it up

[@daviddavies9996]

The 372 is deffo the best saw of all time in my opinion

[@travisdoesfirewood]

Can you remind us, Buckin', why you tip your bar when tightening it? (Hope my question makes sense) keep cuttin' brother!

[@farqend]

Long bar! yeah.

[@ericfuller6326]

Granberg makes adapter plates to mount stihl on either husqvarna or echo/ mcculloch too.

[@nikky3piece452]

Oh yeah i also like the Buddy Holly glasses!!

[@rileyjohnston8393]

Buckin try out the cannon duralite. Not cheap but they are very nice. They come in Stihl mount but the slot is already longer so you don’t have to grind them like a Stihl bar to fit a husky. Cool video

[@RiversidewoodFarm-vq3bl]

Gotta question buckin, and you may have covered it. I aer my chain and tighten. Not tight but just holding in the bar. And you guessed it! It tightens automatically, way too tight! What’s the deal?

[@chrismuncey3861]

I also run Stihl pattern bars so I can use my bars on all my Stihl and Husqvarna saw's.

[@aBigMeanie]

is there an adapter to go from stihl to husky k095 small mount?

You sold me on this . I’m buying the husky head and the stihl bar . I love it
