This is fabulous content Buckin. So interesting to adapt with small machines and old techniques.

[@user-bm2wv6gv7w]

Thank you to everyone that helped Buckin out with this trip to Nova Scotia . Love watching you Buckin . ❤

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Thx friend

[@EricChmelarsky-vh7eq]

Once again, thank you to all that helped Daryl. Burdened with this predicament, Daryl winning the saw was a true blessing. It brought people together to help him out in a time need. Funny how things work out sometimes.

[@Helga____]

This is life as it should be, and it's heartwarming 😊❤ Thank you to everyone that took part in this undertaking and helped Daryl, his family, and his neighbors to get out of this mess 🙏🏻❤️. This is humanity at it's best. I'm glad to be part of this channel. Thanks, Buckin' ☺️

Adding the word "Gypo" to my vocabulary. Very cool, great history. Thanks!👍

About a million times throughout my firewooding and felling career I wished I'd had someone to show me how to do it right. Now I got you Buckin,thanks. Cheers from HB NZ

[@bryanherbert5454]

Thanks for being you Buckin❤ my favorite place to be. You've changed many lives for the better. Thank you

[@DavidWilliams-sl4zx]

Buckin you are truly a man who humbly shows his expertise

[@KevinTownsend-hw5ih]

Those hardwood stems most likely had their cambium layer cooked and will need to be removed. They will sprout from the stump and then you need to prune those sprouts so you don't end up with a hardwood bush.

[@Yakkcatz]

Just a tickle. I call it ticklen' !!! Love you all !

[@musicdauphinee6626]

Daryl it was nice to meet you and everyone at the meet and greet in Nova Scotia. Big thanks to your wife for taking pics. So glad that you won the saw. Great work Brandon. So glad to see people like you guys coming together and gettin' it done! Thank you Buckin for all that you do❤

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Our pleasure!

[@JoeRainis156]

Buckin you are”Salt of the Earth” to travel to the east coast to help out Daryl. Also kudos to Scott from DGP oils, Scott Wilson and Brandon for bringing the mechanical muscle. I also can’t wait for the release of your leather kilties for my boots. The ones I have are a joke. The ones I have are so small they don’t serve a purpose and are there just for looks.

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Yer gonna love theses . We bought that dye for them . That’s how confident I am .. love ya Italian stallion

[@martyrutter3630]

Brandon super job helping Daryl cleanup this damaged property. Thank you Scott Porter/DGP for providing safe bar oil for this major burn damaged property. Super dry wood needs a first class oil!

In a time when the need to identify as something is rampant, it's nice to see folks still identifying as neighbors.... even if from several provinces away. Ya love to see it. With all the changes the channel has undergone, the heart of it still thumps to the same beat. Thanks all. Way cool.

Thanks to Dgp for the oil and Brandon bringing your equipment is amazing. Loved the video great advice about falling multiple trees at once . It’s small timber there in Bedford but don’t be fooled there is some real impressive timber in Nova Scotia I’m from the Weymouth area an there is some big wood left around here in places nothing like what you have Buckin in Bc but there’s timber . Keep rolling out those videos. Loved the live feed yesterday great talk Be safe !

First thing to grow is weeds. Several years back we cut a woods where a tornado went thru, was ruff all the tops and weeds to stumble thru

[@afleetcommand]

Hardwood can sometimes handle a season of being "defoliated" , see that with the tent worms. Fire & burns ? Maybe. Looks like u are having fun :)

[@mychalhunter5212]

Hoping and, with any luck, looking forward to Ripsaw gettin their hands on the new 562 mark ii!!

[@ryobrown-mcclain805]

This question of why all the tree roots are exposed in that forest is interesting, i've seen root more exposed in wet areas and in rocky shallow soil areas. Great content Buckin, keep asking those questions, hope we get to see a shot when everything grows back in!

[@Otherrandomguy42]

This area is all rock there's places like this that are close to the coastline in Nova Scotia where there's trees growing from cracks in the bed rock.

[@bushleague3472]

I'm in Northern Alberta, its not rocky but I still see that around here. Alot of where I see it is small patches of timber in that same sort of small acreage type setting, and I've always assumed its from the soil washing away after the surrounding forrest gets cut.

[@tedbell4416]

Thanks for saying that at the beginning I needed to hear that.

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

You are so welcome

[@michaelcole4893]

Love your channel love your message! God speed my friend!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Thank you! You too!

[@TheBeatenPaths]

Welcome to East coast, I'm in New Brunswick!

[@BkxLounge]

As someone who both works in Forestry on the East (Newfpundland) and experienced an extreme forest fire two years ago ( Bay d'Espoir Complex). The reason the roots are exposed is because our duff layer is extremely thick and the soils here are pretty lose so as the duff burns the left over soil more or less becomes a fine sand and removes itself from the area. As for the hardwood coming back, extremely unlikely. All over the burn here, not a single white birch survived, even is only the first 3 feet of the bowl burned. Luckily the fire complex we had here on the island was remote and no one or no properties were lost. Thanks for the video Buckin

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Thx for this . Duff ? You mean organic s needles top soil?

[@BkxLounge]

@BuckinBillyRaySmith sorry, yes. Duff is the term we use for the organic top layer. I know here we had, in some areas, 1-2m of this organic top which you can imagine exposes a lot when it is burned away. The pictures of the area after the fire are crazy because the amount of rock that was never seen before was startling. Not to mention the ease for trees to blow over now in the affected area because of those exposed roots.

[@jirusjirus9322]

Got the big warning here in western Pennsylvania that there are more than 200 wildfires burning in Canada right now and we may be affected more than last year with smoke filled air. I know fire is good for some areas but it seems if we can bomb far off lands we should be able to help get the fires under control... losing timber to fire just makes me sad. 😕🔧🐾🔥

[@Alexhulk]

So happy that I found you guys

[@drkwlsk]

Nature has an amazing way of replenishing itself. I've seen burnt forest like that come back the following spring fully green and saplings everywhere! Great job again BBR

Welcome to nova scotia were i am from. Im from the Digby county area about 30 minutes passed Digby. I hope you liked nova scotia. I am a big fan of your channel. I didn't know you were down here i could have gone with my 500I and helped and meet ya. Anyways great work as always my friend. Sounds like you had a good time down here. Stay safe my friend 😉

[@geoffhuber8026]

Buckin'!! Typing from Eugene, Or. We get a great shout-out from 'ol Mr. Cash in his tune "Lumberjack"...I'm sure you know that tune very well. Anywho...I just ordered two of your 31.5" hafts to rehang a couple vintage Collins heads. I have learned sooooo much from you it really is incredible. I am an avid sawyer and I love spending my free time volunteering out in the woods to keep our local trails clear and safe for all the hikers and mountain bikers. You also inspired me to start a club called the Acoustic Chainsaw Club....a.k.a an axe. I've got a group of buddies that join me once in a while to clear trees with just an axe. Nothing beats the sound of a well-tuned saw...but I think that the "thwack" a sharp axe makes when it hits solid wood is right there too. Thanks again for all that you do big guy!!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Good ya see you

Nothin better for growing hardwood like oak and birch and softwood like white pine than a forest fire. Preps the soil for the acorns and pine cones to open up and germinate. Nice work buckin. Been here since 2017. Love watching the channel grow.

[@johnvelas70]

I don't have to tell you wood has a temper like steel. If a hardwood is burned ONCE it is still useable for furniture, but not structural purposes. If it is burned 2x (including lightning) it is only good for firewood. I built my sister a beautiful end table out of PA cherry, hit by lightning 3x from her back yard. Within 4 months, it went all sorts of haywire.

You know I love your channel and I bought a few songs off of ripsaw but I can't wait 6 to 8 months no more that is absolutely crazy this last time it took 10 months when I could call a couple other guys I have songs from them also and it does the same exact thing and I could wait not even 3 weeks 4 weeks at the most ripsaw is amazing but they have to figure out a different system people can't wait almost a year for a chainsaw if they're that busy then they should stop right now business get caught up on everything and then start back over fresh that's just my opinion it's not my business I just hate to see them lose customers because they're wonderful people just my opinion God bless everybody

[@Alexhulk]

Huge help❤

[@KevinsDisobedience]

Have you ever done a close call video? I’m sure you’ve talked about some on lives, but I think it would be very informative to have a seasoned vet relay their close call stories. I know you were hit by a tree and injured really badly, but I bet you had many close calls.

Come down and cut in Texas, where things don't grow straight up, and you have poison ivy and greenbrier. Almost every fall is a hangup.

[@jirusjirus9322]

Digging out poison ivy has become one of my specialties, just small stuff around gardens and houses but i learned about it 24 years ago when i lived on an abandoned farm and took it on as a quest. Cutting vines with hand saw and chainsaw, bigger than my thigh and realizing that some of the big trees were pulled down by grape vines and poison ivy vines...🌲♻️🍀💚

Hey Buckin! What would be the maximum bar length and chain for a Homelite XL12. It’s all stock. New carb about 10 yrs ago. Thanks!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

24 is nice but it’ll pull 28 with right chain

[@BryanChaney-wr7wv]

Thanks a lot. I was thinking 24. Had a 20 on it with a full chisel 3/8 chain and it done great. Was looking for a little longer bar so I don’t have to been as much. Really enjoy your videos. I’m learning a lot about felling. I’ve ran saws my whole life, but main cutting brush or blown down trees. Haven’t felled too many trees and some I wouldn’t try because I wasn’t sure how to w/out gettin hurt or damaging something. Any how thanks again! Have a great day and keep it up!

A goof burning garbage in his backyard is the story. No charges were laid even though over 200 houses and buildings burned. I was in the area the day it started, the wind was nuts it spread like crazy.

[@jirusjirus9322]

Never burn on Windy days...we have advanced weather forecasting, it's easy to find out the wind for the day. Never burn too big to contain, keep fires small. There's over 200 wildfires burning in Canada right now...we should use all our resources to help control fires, but we're too busy sending money to keep wars going. Firefighting is a war against flames... maybe we could have better results if we were concentrating on environmental disasters instead of causing more.... oops, I'm starting to show my Peacenick colors. 🎶😎👣🕊️
