McCulloch super 55, first cut in years

[@ricfly52]

Billy , my Dad had a super 55 years ago when he fell for a logger or two, and he worked for some outfit that was clearing timber and brush for a power line from Utah to Idaho. When pops died, bless his soul, I loved him so much. Anyhow, my brother got a hold of the saw. I have seen it in his shop. It looks like warmed over dog poop. Has not been started for gees who knows how many years. My brother has said I can have it. OH BOY am I excited after seeing this video. I will work on it to the best of my skills, but I am sure I will need assistance. Awesome video Billy!

[@oldbowsaw9001]

Get the old girl going and cut wood just like dad did back in the day!!!!!!!!!!!

[@donsmith3314]

Looks good man! Hope everyone is doing well! Spent the day gathering some poplar firewood. Got the saw all ready to go the night before, drove out to the woodpile where it was all stacked up. Cleared away some overgrown grass. fired up the saw, let it warm up nicely, flipped on the hearing protection, and started in on my first cut, only to find a nice piece of barbed wire 2 inches into the cut, where the tree had grown around it! Thank goodness for all the time I had spent watching your filing videos, and practicing, otherwise I'd still be there! Practice makes proficiency! Have a great day everyone!

How could anyone ever dislike a video of a happy dude playing with saws. Mind boggling.

[@sandmanbub]

Had one sitting in the back of my workshop for close to 30 years. Missing it's left side cover, bar and chain, but everything else's here. It has a nice fat blue spark and great compression. Stopped here while searching for a carb rebuild kit and side cover. Just subbed.

Found your channel a few days ago (splitting by hand). For some reason I got a strong feeling of wanting to visit your place someday, even though I'm half a world away! Keep up the positive vibes and great videos. Thanks for giving me the motivation to cut my firewood by hand again this year!

[@4gclipseGT]

Buckin, thank you for showing us the "behind the scenes" so to speak. A lot of youtubers and other social media platforms only show the end result and not the journey getting there. I love seeing this, there is no good times without hard times. When the pull cord got stuck after hours of maintenance I could feel the disappointment through the screen. Cheers from the north east.

Hi Buckin, I loved the sound of that old McCullough 55 chain saw. It is like listening to clasic music to me. Brother. I love my PM 610. It runs how ever now I need to get the oiler pump fixed. I bought the new Husqvarna 395 xp with a 36" bar and chain. The McCullough PM 610 with the 28" bar and chain was always my go to saw . She's sweet and getting old. I was so Happy today. I received two of my BuckingBillyRay Tee shirts So awesome and so cool. I wore mine when I went into the Husqvarna dealership. Hamersville Ohio Hamersville power equipment. They are a 4 3/4 star rated shop that's 1/4 below a 5 star shop. Be like going to Bear Claw. Thank you for all you do. I'm a subscriber and a believer

[@terryspain3390]

100% with you on the patience with the old saws Buckin. And oh my, I was right with you when the recoil spring pulled out of housing, 😑 that sucks especially out and about not at the shop. Thanks for sharing, those old mccullochs are neat!

[@coopershistorygarage2804]

I love Billy at 4:00 that excitement/surprise/enthusiasm when the 840 just runs superb. I love those sounds and smells! Also, like Billy, at the end, when I first “discovered” what gear drive saws are, I knew I had to have at least one. What a cool idea, gear reduction to increase torque with a saw.

[@buddyhoffman164]

Hey buckin I loved the fact that you ran the old mac even tho it needed some carb adjustments. All that matters is you tried your best and thats what I love about you "never give up" keep up the great work. Oh and that husky 371 sign i have that exact saw. Thank you so much buckin

Nice saw, I just got my hands on an echo 452vl, a home lite ez automatic, and got 5 extra bars, two were still in the plastic! The echo and home lite have the original bars and chains on them. $80 for all. I know they ain’t big saws but starting to get into the old ones. Got them both running. Still need some tuning, but they run. Now I need an old McCullouch!

[@wednesdar452]

Costa got smoked... you had a feeling he would by how much Yoel had touched him up. Sorry Yoel didn't win that one. That Mac is a rad saw! Love the centered bar... tripping me out thinking about it. Can't wait to see you get it dialed. Thank you, god bless and stay safe.

Buckin' Billy Ray Smith My Son has been addicted for years! He took mauy thai kickboxing and was supposed to have his first fight just before his hwy accident he was in the best shape of his life lost 125lbs! Sad to say poor guy has never been the same lots of residuals since the accident. 😢 But never misses a fight. I think the girls are just ruthless! Lol

[@jirusjirus9322]

My dad watched all the boxing matches when i was growing up. He taught me to appreciate the art of fighting (boxing). But every once in a while the guy who was losing the fight would get the decision, that would make him angry and of course i grew to see how that was possible. Getting upset after watching 10 rounds or 15 rounds of boxing is not a joyous moment. UFC was awesome when i had cable TV access. Watched all the fights, one against one. The gals now are brutal. Very athletic, very exciting. Tennis and ping pong, one against one. College wrestling, one against one. Not a team sport fan unless I'm playing.

Very nice saws. Sadly I haven’t gotten any of my macs going. But I got a just a pro 10-10 and it’s a very very nice saw

[@ethanrossmann579]

Michael Fresh the only max I think I have is a pro Mac 55. It runs but it needs some stuff. Right now I’m working on a super pro 81 that needs a fuel line and it’s been acting up. It was sitting for 20 years and it’s running okay but the oil was just pouring out of the bar and chain part. But it’s gotten better and it seems low compression when idling but it’s not because I measured around 180psi for compression

[@rosavola]
