Worlds Greatest Chainsaw...Ever

[@OutDoorAdventures_1907]

I'm 57, Back in the day when I was 12-13 my Dad and I would cut fire wood in the summer. He ran an old Mcculloch. No idea of the model. He''d get the trees on the ground and I would limb them with an axe. Then I'd then pull them out with a 1954 Farmall 100 (still have it and it''s still a working tractor) to a clearing. After we had 10-15 trees on the ground Dad would come buck them and I would split with an axe, It was amazing how efficent the two of us were, I miss him and those times!

Don’t get better than father and son. It’s just something you can’t describe

[@iansmith7369]

Hi buckin. Just love seeing ya using the old saws, I can smell it through the screen and I’m in 🇬🇧. And maybe some time soon maybe another look into your shed I can never get bored of looking and hearing the old saws

[@carlzirk]

So glad you are able to help out Daryl.

[@mikahakkinen5651]

a love that sound on that old saw. like music to my ears

[@Grizzman99]

Mac is back! Something about these old yeller saws.. can hear it instantly that old Mac pop! Love it. Never owned a 125 but have many other Mac’s and I will agree. Best in the world.

[@garyholladay9476]

The ole 125 mac is hungry again! Great vid buckin!!

[@MrBooMY3]

I was told by an older gentleman that the 125s were a great motor for go karts back in the day. I'm not quite old enough for that.

[@austinszafranski8548]

My dad had a go kart with 2 of those engines on it

[@johntroze11]

​@austinszafranski8548 my dad drove an Astro van

[@julianlaustsen1991]

might have been back then, this engine is pure crap compared to a `125 dirtbike engine

[@PNW_Car_Mods]

Buckin, the intro just keeps getting better and better over the years!

[@Jetboat2000]

I worked on many big yellow saws and the Homelites used to get down and cut until they turned red from blue. 1980 small engine guy; still qm.

[@Tim_othy87]

watching this from a beautiful evening here in France...that sounds so crisp...great work !!

[@Sasquatch7.62]

Love the sound of that 125 and how it rips rite through the wood!

[@shaunboese3741]

I would love to run one of those big yellow saws! Looks like great fun... Thanks Mr. BUCKIN

[@Helga____]

I keep coming back to this saw. The way she sits there on the log, idling, waiting to be turned loose and more than ready to take on anything you throw at her... ✊🏻🌳🌲❤️ That saw has seen things. I'm glad she found a good home with you ☺️

[@axesandthings483]

Missed a golden opportunity to name this video "Return of the Mac". 🙂

[@michaelsarar1692]

Awesome when you bring out the big Mac’s n Pioneer’s. Thank you!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Welcome

[@STROKEnDISTANCE]

Took my dad’s old saw engine from the garage and tossed it on a little mini bike frame. That thing COOKS! Yer the man Billy Ray, always appreciate your knowledge and outlook on life. Keep on buck’n my friend 🌲

[@Kristof-1983]

The best vid off the week!!! Love the old yellow bumblebees!!

[@gunnerfanning5921]

Love the sound of Vintage...

[@kevinmccoy269]

That saw is awesome! That's the perfect size log to show the power that thing has.

[@mikebeatty6827]

Love seeing this MAC. Bought my second one today. Starred with a pro 1010 and now I think this is either 300, 250 super or one of the 1-50 series. It has the black top but all is worn away. Can't wait to run it. Thank you for these videos.

[@DevonReeley]

Much love Buckin!! Loving seeing the old Mac’s out!🪵❤️

[@jerrywilder9403]

Gotta love the old saws, the way they sound and feel, roll hard my friend

[@GertRupczyk]

Love watching your videos and the messages that you give . Love the sound of this saw

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Thanks 👍

[@hpelisr]

Good to see you running that Mac, yes it sounds awesome. That 125 is an animal, and you got it running hot. That's a big log, want to see more.

[@antoniomorgado5304]

hey there! back on the yellow machine!

[@michaelnewman-ds3fr]

Thanks for the video Buckin! I would love to run an old vintage saw like that one day!

[@JacobHesketh]

That Mac is an absolute beast of a chainsaw. Best sounding power saw I ever heard Buckin! 🔥

[@sparkswood9540]

It sounds freakn awesome, but not as awesome as the old P-51

[@EightWheelsRollin]

You running that saw, It's been a while. You tickled those reeds, she sounds good! Love that saw. Thanks Buckin'!

[@BrandonWeinmann]

SP125 has some interesting specs. 23 pounds, 7.5 cubic inches, 20:1 mix with only 70 octane requirement. Produced only three years 1969-1971. Makes them rare gem! Anyone else look them up? Makes them larger than Husqvarna 3120 by cu. Inches!

[@leonschufletowski8874]

What a great running and sounding saw. SHE CUTS A. Another great video buckin ❤

[@abynormal9227]

WoW that thing is a beast. Have heard of them and seen pictures just never one in action. Thanks for showing us one in action. 🙂

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Welcome

[@stevetheriault4164]

THE 125 CAME OUT TO PLAY ,,SHE SOUNDS GREAT BUDDY WHAT A SAW😁👍👍👍

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Yes it does!

[@michaelwhiteoldtimer7648]

Those old Macs sound like a hot rod back in the day when they are idling, no saw ever sounded like that. Thanks for running one again

[@chadleitschuh3012]

I would absolutely love to get my hands on one... I love the old mac saws but never ran the 125cc

[@4seasonpursuits724]

Some vintage tools and equipment definitely fill a special place for some folks… the sound of this ole saw and wood chips flying out are very cool! ✌️

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

You got that right!

[@wednesdar452]

That thing is RIDONKULOUS!! Love it! I have my buddy's grandpa's McCulloch 200. It is super fun to run. I use it about once/month, only on clean fir to make sauna food.

[@danbarth9421]

What an awesome saw!! I have never had the opportunity to run one of those, but hope to get my hands on one and experiance for myself!!! Awesome footage brother, that saw makes ya happy I can tell from the smiles😊😊

[@StephenBrown-ti6mm]

That is one beautiful machine 👍

[@forgodssakehuskers6261]

Never seen a saw spit chips like that! Amazing. So powerful, but so heavy.

[@RobertSchubert-ip8nh]

Thank you Buckin!

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

No problem

[@jeffkiser6551]

Great to see ya using an old saw again! Wish I could get my hands on one of those old Macs. They are hard to find here in VA. All I ever see for sale are the small ones.

[@nalamb4495]

Glorious+life enhancing= pop eating grins The 125 is an absolutely a joy to run in big wood. It almost makes one sad when there is nothing left to really dig it into. I get to go play with big stuff here and there 25+”. The only way I have found to really enjoy cutting for 1/2 tank or more it to split logs into boards free hand. Snap a chalk line score it and then settle up for continuous buck work the throttle just the same. I don’t know what it is about the old Mac’s especially the bigger frame saws. But no saw new or old runs a cool as macs do. Even running them hard they don’t seem to get the cylinder over 212-220 degrees.

[@stephenreiner1523]

The 125 is a beast. Love ya, thank you.

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Right on!

[@dmitchellcourt]

Wise words at the end Silver Buck !!✊️

[@traviscore8681]

My dad and I still have several p38s hanging around very close. I believe he's still got his on his key ring. He's had it there as long as I can remember and I'm 42

[@rcarmody1]

Look at that saw. haven't seen it out for a run in ages!

[@veterantechus]

You have amazing scenes. Chain saws are very useful.

[@marko1025]

You are a kind genuine man . ✊🏻

[@ShanePhillips-mv7bi]

I lived outside a stihl town in 60s dad was a faller and used to sneak his 125 to work and say mustabeen a lyrebird ime in tassie 12:45

[@robertdouglas3456]

I love that 125 saw! Buck on Billy!🤩🤩

[@Alexhulk]

Tanks Good video

[@prestontimbs74]

Buckin has to be the most humble man on the planet on KZbin since Moses....

[@johnjelinek-g7b]

That 125 sounded like it really came alive after 3-4 minutes of running . MAN that sucker is a TORQUE monster . :)

[@TristanCorvinus-wc9yv]

Where can I get me one of those!? ❤ Much Love Billie!! You’re my digital mentor brother. I’m studying & training to be an Arborist. ::Cheers:: Good day to you friend 🤘😋🤘

[@Magoot2456]

I think this is the first time I've ever heard you say "chainsaw" 😂 made me chuckle

[@BigMeepsadventures]

I got a 10-10 last week and got one of these in the mail yesterday. Gonna rebuild the carb and replace gaskets and possibly crank bearings so theres less chance of bad things happening. What all needs done to large mount husky bars to fit. Im thinking about going from the 48" that came with it to around 32 maybe 36"

[@cathydavis3263]

Buckin billy ray I like that 125sp ❤😊

[@robertlarsen6516]

Sounds like my childhood, Buckin. Dad ripping crap up, and me having to build slag piles, brush piles, and hump wood to the truck! Ha!

[@brianprange8049]

Man I love the sound of that saw.

[@DuaneDavend-bt3nx]

I don't speak that good mac an ese, but I think the saw said ( Is this 5 foot stick all ya got) . Buckin what a lesson in how to respect a saw .the way you give it time to get some air ,good stuff!

[@marcinszafranski4452]

Can't wait to see you in Nova Scotia😃💪🤘Take care👊

[@mikevictor3698]

That saw is bad ass ! I need to find one

[@bilbobaggins4366]

I just had a vision of one of these running a push bike ,really well bar included 😅

[@Keithskane]

Ive got its little brother the sp105. Just finished fitting a stihl duro bar to it and you weren't wrong about having to modify the bar alot

[@HairlipButcher]

A 2 stroke with reeds make some freakin steam! 100% Buckin. 💪👌

[@patrickwinde9802]

That saw does not care at all I love it be safe buckin

[@kena658]

Chipspitter no 1, what a torque and power. She cuts ay!!!

[@clinkerclint]

Just a man and his machine enjoying eachother's company :)

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Precisely

[@kevinmccullah9265]

Ahh there's my dream machine. Thanks for draggin it out, Buckin! Maybe you're in good enough shape to ride in an airplane. Lol💪

[@MrThenry1988]

Bumped into one in the 80s. Good times for sure. Most I know now wood not go to the woods with that man.

[@Syncop8rNZ]

One day the Precious will be mine.... 😍

[@mrfarmall-vk4gw]

Yes! Bring on the yellow!

[@haroldhodge7770]

Nice saw it’s a beast you are having to much fun

[@MrPittman95]

Speaking of that ironhorse p38 I’d love to see that in action again

[@Treestouch]

It’s an actual Being! At 6:58 when the being is at full penetration it’s completely at peace, at home, in its happy place. I could literally feel its spirit🤩! This is music.

[@ishure8849]

G'day Buckin, most saws these days sound the same, not that old torque monster 👍.

[@ishure8849]

PS It might be a bowl of clam chowder in N/S.

[@lapoguslapogus7161]

I wondered how long it would be before you got an old Mac out. Class.

[@davefran01]

That is a gutsy old saw , by the sound she doesn't seem to struggle at all when working, but what about the Husky 2100cd ? Big motors but the Mac appears to run at a higher RPM.

[@ogreunderbridge5204]

In todays world of chainsaws, in general, how is the spareparts market for the golden oldies ? In my area I find many classic Jo-bu´s as ex, they seem very solid and often with higher cc´s.

[@McCullochMac6]

I never get tired of hearing that 125 Mac... lol

[@bobrees4363]

I miss having a manual oiler on a chainsaw. I've had way too many automatic oilers go bad, once they do you usually have to spend more than the saw is worth to fix them.

[@waynetharp]

???? More then the saw is worth??? I just dropped a new oiler in one of my 372s a couple of weeks ago, and it was only like $20-$25 bucks and took about 15 minutes to do...

[@LIF1395]

A new old stock125 sold 4 yrs ago. I wished I heard about it sooner😢 Les Aus

[@jonmccormick6805]

Hi Helga!

[@mason-jv7dt]

Buckin you should do a test on the sthil Ms 250

[@bladewiper]

When you make it to Nova Scotia. If you go near Truro, you need to stop into the Masstown Market, and get some seafood from their "Knot on the Bay" take out restaurant. It's good stuff if you like seafood.

[@backwoodsbrooksknives4625]

I have two old Eager Beavers that I was gifted a couple years back. I really need to break them open and replace the lines and diaphragms and get them running. They are nowhere near the saw that this beast is but they are a little piece of history that should be able to be brought out and used sometimes.

[@husbymanduc7185]

I run a mac700 it's a beast but heavy.Also i have my dad's L65 husqvarna and I love it.

[@WornGuy]

I knew that was a McCulloch saw as soon as I heard it. Best chainsaw ever. Do you know where I can purchase parts for one?

[@StephenRempe-hr2le]

Honesty breeds freedom. 😃❤️👍

[@TommyUhlman]

Oh buckin. You won’t have to worry about not eating when you get to Nova Scotia. That Nova Scotian hospitality will take care of that.

[@andrewtolf8574]

Man i love you Brother

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

Love ya

[@charlesseay6080]

Finally giving the Macs a run

[@markfuller9886]

I'm still around Not doing well and thanks for to talk u reached out to me. Still not sure if I'm supposed to be here or not Take care and love ur channel

[@chrismills4213]

My first power saw was a Mcculloch pro max 60…if I remember correctly.

[@EricChmelarsky]

Looks like the Eagar Beaver is right at home . Getting er done without complaining a bit.

[@gyulatimko2075]

This is the most badass chainsaw in the world! I wish i would have the oppotunity to try one! I have a mc 6-10 wich i love. 😊

[@critterg8493]

Big MAC o yeah

[@saltrock9642]

I love the old beast. HEY BUCKIN! QUESTION: In your opinion what’s the single greatest improvement built into saw in the last 40 or so years? We love ya buddy.

[@waynetharp]

IMO...it is the anti-vibration systems they have gone to!👍

[@nigelh45]

Like buckin a stem with a moto x bike with a bar& chain in place of the back wheel😁❤️😁

[@TheRooster_dustinsmith]

All I can do is smile lol I would love to run one someday
