Loved this video it's so fun pulling logs out of the bush with a truck. Mostly Toyota land cruisers or Nissan patrols here in Australia but my grandpar had a f100 ford V8. And that was cool rig .

[@ClellWise]

Hey Buckin' am I seeing a bunch of maple leaves on that forest floor? You are 100% correct. It's beautiful in there, especially this time of year. So much color. Yeah keep yer eyes out for 'ol blackie. Thanks that was fun to watch.

Thanks for sharing Buckin’. I myself can identify with the love for a truck that battle has been won in. My GMC is sleepy but I love her and she’s still hauling wood and chips. I’m grateful the universe lets me make a living from running a chain saw and swinging a axe. It’s the glue that holds me together physically, spiritually, and mentally. Thanks Buckin’

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Good man

Welcome friend

[@nathanadrian7797]

I love seeing you work those old saws, it takes me back to my childhood when I would see all the local loggers pull through the store after work, Ford and Dodge crew cabs full of loggers and chainsaws! I have a few of those old saws, and I just got given 3 more old Stihls(I get the old stuff for working on his Huskys), but when I hit the bush, I only take my modern saws, no time to play when there is fire wood to make. Just down the road is a mid 70's Ford crew cab 2wd, if you can't find parts closer to home, I could check it out for you, it should be very cheap. May God bless you for all you do for others.

16:23 Same reason nylon strap or rope is better for pulling stuck vehicles out than is chain. The elasticity of the strap/rope and the subsequent sling shot effect.

Very clever use of the truck , rope , and block and tackle allowing the sawyer an easier go of it. True “Backyard Logging” 😉

[@terrytesterman1689]

One thing I've noticed those trees aren't roped with poison oak and ivy like we have here in NC ,especially some of the species of hardwood we have. Just the forest floor is gets covered. The rash from that mess can spread to places you didn't know you had. Lol

[@jirusjirus9322]

When I moved onto some acres back in 99 there was more poison ivy than you could shake a stick at. My goal was to erraticate, remove and destroy as much as I could. Got poison ivy rashes 16 times that summer. Took homeopathic remedies and large amounts of vitamin C. Became an expert in recognizing the itchy weed anywhere I'd go. And now 23 years later i dig it up with a digging fork and let the roots dry up in the sun or toss it in black trash bags for the trash. People are overjoyed when it doesn't come back the next spring. ✅

[@mathewfranco3211]

So I’m a little late to the party but I’m getting your vibes. I gave up drinking less than a year ago and my mind is finally starting to clear. I just turned 70 in August.

[@shartne]

I got an old 710 McCuloch I have to figure out how to work on it. My best friend left it to me just before he died. So I must fix it. Its a interesting saw that I apreciate. I might have to take it to a saw shop.

[@MATT.MAN-PEACE-LOVE]

A good tip I learned from buckin with any older saw before ya run it is to bring the exhaust off and check for carbon build up in the exhaust ports the 2 stroke oil has improved over the years have seen exhaust ports nearly completely blocked with carbon build up it’s a hard black substance if a bit gets inside the cylinder it can do serious damage to the engine I would say it’s probably the best place to start when restoring a older saw it can be difficult finding parts for the older machines if ya got one ya love it’s handy to have a old carcass laying around for the parts always have my eyes open for mac carcasses lol good luck with her any questions just fire away Peace&love ✌️❤️🌲🪵🪓🐝

[@shartne]

@@MATT.MAN-PEACE-LOVE Thanks for the tip I got to figure out haw to get it apart no videos have I found yet on this subject. I can probably get the exhaust off no probem. I will do that.

[@MATT.MAN-PEACE-LOVE]

@@shartne the macs usually have these metal brackets on the exhaust that bend over the heads of the bolts to stop them coming undone lightly tap with a flat head screwdriver to straighten the tabs it will allow you to get a wrench on the heads of the bolts. ✌️❤️🌲🪵🪓🐝

Great video. I surely like watching how you get the logs moved and out. The chainsaw work is great too, but, I surely like the rigging that you do to move things. It’s just amazing. I had a cousin in Ottawa that would love to be there doing that. Sadly he’s been passed away for 15 years. But obviously, I still think of him. He and I did a lot of things together, many years ago. It was fun. I live in PEI, Canada. 🇨🇦 Have a great day. 🪵🪓🔥👋👍🏻🇨🇦☕️🚜

I know what you mean with the feel of some older saws. Often the torque is thicker at a lower RPM and the power is lower at high RPM in comparison to new pro saws. It's the feel of the torque band that I believe you're referring too. Definitely a feel thing

hey Buckin, I'm real happy for all your success in life and on youtube. It's Brendon from Coquitlam across the pond. I've watched and learned so much from almost all your videos. I'm not a seasoned faller like yourself but I love using my modded 365 xtorq with a 36" bar. Base gasket delete and chewed out the side baffles etc. It's so much safer and easier buckin with a long bar plus everyone I show my saw to almost shits themselves. Please keep up your hard work making great tutorial videos that are so inspiring and motivational. And super entertaining. Please keep it up with your mom and the drums too.

[@arborymastersllc.9368]

Buckin....please read....though this insnt related to this video, i imagine you are most tuned in to comments on your latest....im considering wedge-pulling (tag line on truck through a block+ wedges) a tree tomorrow that is a codominant oak, with one stem way over a house in the wrong direction to the target space. Ill post a video after if i do this for your eval. But im thinking back cut first because i usually pretension the rope through the block and i dont like to overload the rope. However, i just bought a new bull rope, rated for 16, my sling and block are rated at 10, the oak is probably around the max but my truck wont meet those quotas even in 4wd. So, what im most concerned about is managing the holding wood. The tree is only about 40" wide (dbh), however the spread is about 70ft, 55'' of it is over ther house at an angle. I believe i can offset the stem weight over the house, and pull it over by alternating-cut, wegde, truck tension but, im concerned about the diagonal weight over the house and will have to create a strong taper, (fat away from house). Do you have any thoughts about managing this process? Of course every fiber or plate counts when you have something so consequential and that has to be managed meticulously. Sharp chain super key. Just anything else that comes to mind os much appreciated. Working alone (not great but its my normal, think your vid from years ago 'crazy logger pulls off the impossible'. Haha) Long time viewer, student, fan, friend and disciple.

32:38 I quit worrying about buying new saws and refurbished my old ones (one is a 40 yo John Deere/Echo) since you were running so many of those old McCullough saws, which my dad had (we kids called it the "put-put zoom!" saw 😂). They are fine for ranch work. I'm surely glad you mentioned using those older ones because that is why I work on mine. Just rebuild the carb on a 20yo Husqy and used it today. Cut some dead, semi-dry mesquite, 2400-2600 Janka.
