ME AND MY McCULLOCHS PAYIN' THE BILLS

i HAVE ALWAYS ENJOYED A CHALLENGE,, IN ANY ASPECT OF LIFE , IN THIS VIDEO BARBER CHAIR IS DISCUSSED

[@benschlacher6131]

To all the new subscriber out there, firstly welcome. This is why we all subscribe to this channel folks - you can troll the Tube far and wide, but its rare that you will get this kind of advice delivered with patience and passion. I dig it and am grateful for your time and effort Buckin.

[@STMwoodturning]

I had an alder do the same thing years ago. I'd heard of barber chairing but never saw in person until it happened to me. The Lord was with me that day though cuz when the tree split, I was still sawing the back cut when the tree split. I just remember the "whoosh" sound the tree made as the tree end went past my face and nicked the rim of my hard hat. Gotta be thinking all the time when falling trees!

[@allenhuling598]

Great example, and then explanation of the 'barber chair!' When the job allows, would you do a vid on dealing with 'hang-ups, 'especially those tall skinny ones that aren't heavy enough to push through the limbs and foliage? Thanks!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

you bet when occaision arouses

[@AuctionIndiana]

Allen there was a video a while ago that had that, Buckin cut it at the base a few times an it finished falling(it was pretty quick) if i can find it again I'll let you know what video it was Take care an Be Well!

[@allenhuling598]

AuctionIndiana Thanks much, to both you and Buckin'!

[@LoggerWade]

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

[@daveinla7666]

Cool...! Thanks tree sensei Buckin, heard of barber chair but never seen one... actually scary when it cut out, lot could go wrong in a hurry there. Nice gifts Bobinski but I'da guessed his fragrance would be pine sap and and 2-stroke?

[@johnjefferson8259]

Great cutting! Thanks for all the tips

[@thomasmach7655]

ohhh what a video again at that beautiful spot - very very nice / now I'm starting to look forward see our snow smelting and releasing the woods again hrrrrr hrrrrr - ouuuuuver and ouuuuut - stay save brother

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

[@thenorthener6855]

Ahhh...finally weekend..been doing almost the same job as you Buckin´.. thinning out some 20 + spruces and pines not so far from where I live. Traded the old 068 or whatever it was for a 1 year old Husky 562...far better saw for me to work with. Hope everyone of you guys, girls, women and children will have a freakin´ fantastic weekend where ever you might be :) Stay safe, warm and be kind :)

This is a great video friend!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

I JUST WATCH IT AND YA NO WHAT ,, YER RIGHT IT IS LOL THX FOR JOININ IN WORRIOR OF KINDNESS, THE FORCE IS STRONG IN YOU ,,,,LOVE .....

[@mtmskogserviceas7704]

Thumbs up for Bobinsky givin' the man a fresh start :D hehe. Lovely to see this gift-openings. In the way of showing the effect of a barberchair is very important. This effect kills people. I will say with your experince Buckin it will only give us the insight. thx buddy. The sappyness is gone in winter too. I love the long videos you are putting out. More tree related stuff. Can't live without it :D Have a nice day my friend. And the rest of you keep up the spirit. Have a glorious day

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

YOUR SPIRIT IS KIND MY FRIEND THANK YOU

[@sslawnservicegray]

No matter what people may say about the barber chair that is a life saving demonstration that you offered to a lot of wants be tree cutters and as you said could save a lot of people's lives like amature pros

[@Gkuljian]

I can't believe I just saw an intentional barber chair. That back cut stops at the center of the log. That's where the shear stress is greatest. I've got a timber ranch in Calif. and I'm having to look at a few trees that aren't straightforward. Even with the moderate experience I've gotten over the years, this video made me realize I need to know the whole truth. Your explanation is great. I thought that might be the way to do it. But without you sharing it, I would be fearful. Like i was the other day with that tree made out of clay. It blew up when it hit the ground. Man I sure could use a little of your attitude. Thanks.

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

welcome friend

[@pallekjrlaursen8388]

Having watched plenty of trees getting cut here on KZbin, I have to say that yours is next level stuff. Not only are you a master at what you do, you also share so much great information and give great explanations. Well done!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

I have returned to this video to watch it and reply to comments and want to thank you muchly for your possitive words thx so much ,, and if i can answer anything pls ask, thx sincerly

[@larrymeyers1639]

always enjoy the cutting jobs you do. glad to see myrtle back on the job too,she's my favorite out of all your trucks

[@riseandshinetruthnow]

Nice tip on cleaning the air filter with gas :)

[@benschlacher6131]

Really cool real life examples there Buckin - can really do with that advice. Been there a few time myself and wondered "Now what the heck do I do now?" Good to know how the pros do it.

[@beefieschannel8955]

Just catching up on a few videos I missed. I picked up a few tricks from this thanks Buckin!!!

[@markq23]

the master at work!😝👍😉😊 awesome! really appreciate the videos buckin! iv learned so much from you and i am so much more confident now when cutting! THANK YOU!

[@joedefriese1111]

thanks for the info buckin nice to learn more about tree felling

[@Brando1914]

It always amazes me when I see a video or cut firewood at home how such a small sliver of wood can hold a big old tree till it gets finished off with a wedge. That's A LOT of weight on it, love it!

[@medic588]

Awesome job Billy perfection every time.

[@justinjulian7952]

Hey bud you had it all there, sun, crisp air, nice interesting trees, your little yellow beast, a water view and you brought us along. Thanks great vid.

[@loadeddog8015]

Justin Julian .....so well put JJ. 🖒

[@austindenotter19]

the point and demonstration about the barber chair is the most awesome video you have ever done. when I was learning to cut trees as a youngster my tendency was to cut and run my uncle taught to me hang in there, trust yourself and your equipment and never ever ever under any circumstance try to cut timber with a dull saw.

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

all true

[@spencermcginty9812]

I always enjoy the tips and tricks you share!! They have really helped me👍 they're a no place like the woods😊 great work on the light project!! It made a huge difference. Stay safe and live to the family😊😊

[@riseandshinetruthnow]

Watch out for those barber chairs !!!

[@stihl0903]

Another job well done buckin

[@TheElwapo666]

In the uk the main little buggers are Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) , and sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) you have to keep cutting !! :) nice work Mr Ray !!

[@stevencroon]

Aah your gonna have to give that to the wife eh. Keep her happy too. Love it Love it

[@sawsurgeon]

Newbie here. Love the use of the slow-mo. I appreciate you explaining things as you go. I've been in the woods most of my life, but as in all other aspects of life, there's still plenty to learn. I too am a big fan of the old Mac's. My first saw was a 380 that I still have some 30 years later! Thanks for a quality channel. I'm hooked!

[@krambraithw8]

Really enjoyed this one Buckin'. Love the tips and tricks and explanation of some of the variables. Thank you for sharing. You are inspiring pal. Thumbs up

[@thomasseemann2547]

Thanks so much for that I have a really close call last week on a alder because I chose to leave the stump. Needless to say lesson learned!

[@luket9128]

Thanks for the barber chair demo! I have a lot of Adler trees here, that I cut for firewood. always glad for a good Yup! Good video Buckin.

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

cheers luke

[@johnsommerfeld6889]

[@cynthiaherr9029]

Very Cool friend..and no I didn't like the Barberchair, It was scary.. But we knew you had it..lol Take Care BillyRay..Be Safe

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

did nt mean ta scare ya

[@cynthiaherr9029]

lol..Just uncomfortable..No worries

[@redcanoe14]

Very informative, I learned a lot and enjoyed the scenery. Best demonstration of a Barber Chair I have seen. I had a scary experience with a 65 foot Aspen last year, trees were tight together and I dropped the Aspen and as it fell it hit a branch on a bigger tree breaking the one I was falling in half, the top half turned straight back on me and missed me by about 10 feet! Thank you God for sparing my life and teaching me a lesson :)

[@anthonyoverbee2049]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Buckin. I have learned a lot from watching your content. It helps me out. You wouldn't believe how many times. I am now better at sharpening a chain and falling trees no more being scared at the stump. You take care and stay Buckin. God bless!!

[@23sureshot]

Got to love the sound of trees falling

[@afleetcommand]

Nice video....I've always bore cut Ash, Hickory, etc for decades for that exact reason. I've had folks give me chit about the "extra" step for years, feel a bit vindicated. Thank you. Love the old "Mac's" as well! Currently getting an old 660 going to put in the work saw rotation..:)

[@Woodman_Custom_Sawing]

Great video! Gotta love a good days work. Your maples seem more fragile than what we have in the north east US. Thanks for the learnings.

I've never heard(nor seen) of a "Barber Chair" before. Great work Billy!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

interesting .. thx for commenting friend

[@brianwalker1933]

Hi Billy. Subscribed to you're channel today. Have been watching you at work for nearly 6 hours now and l have learnt quite a bit from you. I have been felling & cutting up timber for 25 years now and l'm always keen to learn more. Your chain sharpening video's in particular were very interesting indeed and made a lot of sense to me. Like you, l am "very fussy" when it comes to this aspect of chainsaw sharpening. I have "experimented" with different techniques and angles over many years to find the optimum for both soft and hard timber that we have here in Australia. Keep up the good work "matey" (friend) as we say here in, "Down Under" (Australia) Brian Walker.

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Brian, sincerly , thank you for speakin up , and thx for subbin in here the family of people we have grown is top shelf , I,, like you , love to gain knowledge and to learn ways of makin a hard 'job so to speak', easier. and will learn from anyone,, so good for you, and again thank you ,, i hope to get dopwn yer way at some point,, BE KIND m8.. love ya Buckin'

[@brianwalker1933]

Buckin' Billy Ray Smith Thanks so much for your reply Billy. I will be passing on my new found knowledge that l have learned from your videos to my mates that do chainsawing. All the best to you and your family. Take care mate and be safe. Brian.🙂

Man another reminder on how dangerous trees can be. I would never think that the tree would have split like that. Thanks for your help.

[@Kallepeng]

20:24 ....he said fubar...thumbs up for that!! Did´nt expect that fubar is really used in spoken englisch....LOL So he´s using german axeheads and german language.....both seems to work quite good!!! Greets to the comunity from Berlin Germany.

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Brother Germany.. how are you.. I love that we can connect thre youtube , the german axe head are some of my favorite fore sure ,, awesome buddy , glad you are here

[@Kallepeng]

....everything´s good here....thnx for the question....hope you are good too. ....rolling like a battletank.....right? ....keep on keeping on the good work! All the best from Berlin Germany.

[@Chevron.Muskoka]

hardwood in the cold like that(what I do most of my cutting in anyway) ill take the outside edges out of my backcut first right up to the edges of my notch, it severs the strongest fibers on the outside of the tree so as I come in from the back itll hinge over on the soft fibers of the heart and keep it from barber chairing and pulling fibers. it helps when I dont have a real nice path to escape due to terrain too so I dont have to chase her down and hang out at the stump

[@StumpjumperVideosPA]

Nice timber there sunshine fun stuff !

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

hey big fella thx

[@riseandshinetruthnow]

Barber Chairs Scare Me !!!

[@boyse69]

Hello Mr Smith and good day to you Sir ! at 3:50 into the Video you talk about the Logo on the lovely Axe. If you have the time look into German history as I would love you to know more about that seal. If you look at the Coat of Arm's for Berlin it may give you a clue, and your very Welcome Now you've been to Sweden you know how far back the History goes, you have had your eye's opened wide! Like an Eagle How's your Mother ?

[@carlitrosgarde3254]

me encantan tus videos , eres el mejor leñador que conozco, un saludo

[@thecolonialcraftsman4014]

I took Game of Logging training and under that program bore cutting is the preferred approach regardless of lean... I didn't understand why at first but over time I came to appreciate the process. Your barber chair reinforces my training!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

thats why it is taught you bet

[@josedefreitas4194]

weldone man..things like that is good to see because its dangers for the idiots who thinks they can cut a tree.good job

[@murchlk]

Billy every felling class I've been too lately they say too bore cut everything you can. They are saying the little extra time and hassle isn't worth paying with your life, good thing you are experienced and new to get the hell out. Most logger deaths happen within 15 feet of the stump always have your retreat planned and clear and get outta there when she starts to go.

[@murchlk]

Also anyone who logs and claims they have never had a chair is a flat out liar. Great demo billy like you said people gotta see

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

do you how many people use the words Barber ch. and have no idea whwt it is ... lol haaaaa

[@joshrine7222]

Great video Buckin' I learn something new every time you post. keep up the awesome work friend! I need to get myself a 10-10 Mac asap haha

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

every ones buying em it seems

[@joshrine7222]

My grandfather has one but until I watched you using them I never realized how great of a power saw they were

[@ogresasqwatch6394]

Buckin', I am a new subscriber and enjoy your videos. It is amazing how far even a little kindness will go. I think the title of this video should be the title of your next song. I really enjoy "Wood Man" and look forward to hearing some more. I do not get to use a powersaw very often, but enjoy it when I do get to do so. I just do little stuff as I am inexperienced.I enjoy watching and learning from your videos. This video would be especially informative if I lived somewhere where winter did not mean getting down to 32 degrees Fahrenheit, on a cold day. Have a good one, keep being kind.

[@AuctionIndiana]

Welcome! Glad you are enjoying the Buckin Billy Ray experience! Be Kind Friend!!! 💚🌲💚🌲💚🌲
