Hey to those who posted criticism over on Facebook, just because something is a gift, doesn't mean the receiver is obligated to talk it up. The great thing about folks like Buckin is this all is coming from the heart, agree or disagree, right or wrong. He's just telling what he see's, feel's, and interprets. Honest. Wish more were like that.
In all fairness a stock 288 was lazy! There were substantial gains in rattler’s build! Good job! 394’s were in a class of their own! A stock 288 didn’t come anywhere near them! This shows what ported saws can really do! Great vid!
Hahaha!! Dude when u started peeling out with your feet to the rev of the saw totally brought me back to my childhood! I laughed so damn hard!! Luv u Brother! And.. My wife and i had a disagreement kinda bickering and doesnt happen often after 18 years so it was uncomrtable, whrn you say lets be nice it hits the heart! So, i went in the kitchen and hugged her so tight and told her i was so sorry and she smiled so big and said she was sorry too and we went right back to the love birds weve always been. Billy your an Amazing person and a Stand up Man. Thank you for spreading Kindness my Friend. We luv u Brother. Watchn Outta Sand Springs Oklahoma! P.s. I always try and let people over in front of me in traffic
I have a ported 460 Rancher 24" and am looking at going with a bigger bar on it. Dream of the day when my firewood gets me enough to go a bit bigger. My goal is to have a few strong saws that can hold 30"+ bars in the big wood without bogging. Most the trees I deal with are 18-26" but still running across a few maples that I drop for folks that push 46"+ at the butt so a reliable strong engine with say a 32" bar would make my life so much easier. My firewood cutting and tree cutting still in the hobby phase for now though so gotta play it smart.
I loved reading Harvey's comment! Would love to hear Tinman chime in if he hasn't done so already. I agree the 394 is the clear winner. It just has that "pull" quality that most people are looking for. I have an anniversary edition 288 which I love dearly, but my 394 is just a special saw. Great video, and your content has been phenomenal as always! Love you all...❤️❤️❤️ Lieutenant Bradley
Loved watching the competition of the saws. Always entertaining Buckin, I liked the first one you used. Looking forward to the next video.💯❤️👍🏾😀🙋🏽♀️✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
I am with you Billy the old 394s are dear to my heart. I started out with them logging. The 394 had more guts . The pulling power is better than the other one. Love wins.
Hey Buckin’ I still run a 181xp that was my fathers, it’s a absolute honey it’s done many many hours production logging and firewood. If I happen to come across another one I will be sending it your way brother!
Awesome video Buckin. I was having a hard time changing out my 36" bar and chain on my Husky 395 XP. I also have a 32" bar and chain. Great tip thank you for showing and explaining the proper way to change out the bar and chain. I knew I was doing something wrong. Working on my hand filing. Kindness is a better path in life my friend.
394 is just one of those saws. That 288 runs but a 394 is a whole nother class. I wouldnt expect a 288 to run with a 394. You can see clear gains though. I'd be a happy guy with that 288. The last split video is the tail of the tape. 394 just has it. 288 is no slouch though.
394 took it!! sounds better in the cut and holds power better im running a 395xp and 3120xp always reaching for 395 better saw cuts consistently and a nicer easier saw to manage and cuts through trees all day love it, nice comparison good video cheers!!
So I got to ask the 3 120 XP is it worth the money? Or should I just get a Ms881mag? I know just shoot myself that's what your thinking LOL but no seriously what's up with the BIGGEST Husqvarna saw in production? Like can you tell me about how big of bar it can cut with and milling how big of chain? 3/8" or 404 5/16?
The 394 gave the 288 it’s lunch money, because it felt bad for the lil fellah! Can’t beat a 394 or a 395. Love my 395, they’re monsters. They Pull hard when you need it in the big wood! Thanks for another great vid buckin!
That old 394 is a nice saw, but sorry, 6cc's in chainsaw world is a lot. If it wasn't people wouldn't bother big bore conversions on their 372's and 066's. Enjoy the saws that you enjoy.
288 is a great saw ran them for years it was just an EVERYDAY WORK HORSE 10 hrs a day. I still have a 288XP Light that I run to this day. I love my 390 395 and my 3120 but wouldn’t want to run those 10 hrs a day.
Absolutely loved this video challenge! I've got the 288 although isn't running just now, but when she's rebuilt, I'm gonna run my own challenge, too... The competition will be my new (& newest saw), a 390XP... Can't wait! (I actually wanted the 395 xp, but they were out of stock at my fav shop in Salem, IN - D & D Enterprises - and they had no idea when new inventory would come in during summer of 2021.) Thanks for the great entertaining and informative video Billy!!!
I have a liking for 288s. Both sound and more important cutting big oaks. I have three running and two more in the works. I like the old saws. Nice comparison BBR.
At the end of the day the old saying rings true. Port work or not, there's no replacment for displacement. Both saws sound great and props to the builders. I would take 394 all day but would be happy with either, honestly. Thanks for the great vids buckin 🤙
I just love the 70’s-80’s “It’ll take your lunch money expression!!!!”😂😂😂. It’s really funny how all saw guys have the same twisted sense of humor!!! 👍😂
My 394 was built on a 288 at the factory. It is unmatched up against everything else I've run, including 044, 064, 660 Stihl and it even smokes a 372 in big wood. It has the weight to keep moving, and it has SO much torque that when it's moving it won't stop. I've never run a 288, but I'm sure they were stout and quick, but a 394 is Holy Grail land and I'd take it over 3120 if I had the choice! It is a CRIME to have that 288 wearing a half wrap - even the red chinese full wraps are affordable enough to upgrade!
I have the older low top 288 and it melted the brake off on my Alaskan and kept on cuttin…leaned on er hard many hrs in the day and it’s never missed a beat…
What a pity you're not just nextdoor - You could maybe figure out what's up with our old 266! It's got about ten gazillion hours on it! Loving it, seeing a fella who's in the zone with his machines.
Great video Buckin. I haven't gotten to watch near as often, because I switched jobs. I am out working with my hands and sweating all day now, where as before I had alot of idle time as a driver in construction. I love your content as always. Like you said, it feels great to get out and do physical work, and have lost a bunch of weight by doing so. Keep bringing that positivity and love. 🤘🌳🪓
I have a question, with your experience and all the saws you ran. You would go to a store today and had only ONE saw to buy, which one would it be and what bar size ??? :)
If you look really closely.. when buckin is readying the saws on his tailgate, those trees in the background have beads of sweat popping out on them. Each of them doing their absolute best, to appear smaller than they really are,and hoping to the tree gods he dont want to build something where they stand
It was definitely close. But I think the 88 would be a little faster with a pipe on it. As good as it sounded it still sounds like the muffler is holding it back some. Cool video either way. Now how about you get out Tinman’s homelite and ironhorse’s p38 and have a little race ❤️😎. That would be perfect because I don’t care who wins those are my two dream saws!!!! As always WORK SAFE 😎😎🇨🇦🇺🇸
Hotsaws101 builds a strong saw no doubt. I should know , I own 2 of em - power and longevity are there , just a bit thirsty on the fuel consumption for my liking. Remember: the Fastest saw cuts the Most amount of wood using the Least amount of fuel ⛽️ ... outskis
@@fabzacres-blackcat fuel isn't my worry, but being a logger I can see packin more gas in sucks. Hopefuly it drinks enough the gas cans easy to pack out lol.
Love your comedic attitude!!! Question I have is this, Why do you and other guys I see pull the starter cord when shutting the chainsaw off? I've been running huskys for 33yrs and not once have I done that. Can't find anyone that will answer this for me? Thanks
In all fairness IMHO there is speed and practicality. To be honest 288s are not a speed demon by any means but that's not really where they shine. Really really big wood is where this saw does the most damage. The seventh mount is designed to help with extremely long bars, 7 pin rim in huge wood this torque monster really out lasts where other saws bog. Sometimes slow and steady wins the race. I have been personally up against extremely large cottonwood, oak and others, while not in a battle of the axes for say this was in a work setting and we were trying to get the job done. And this saw lumbered on where others were sticking and bogging. Sometimes in my opinion at least, time is secondary to the work to be preformed when I need it. Do I lug around my 288 for limbing and bucking normally no. But I do put it in the truck when I know there is some ridiculous tree that needs to be bucked up yeah. But what this really is is a conversation. As long as everyone can be happy with the gift of being able to make their own beliefs on what they like or don't like. I happen to be partial to a 288 but like you I have a buddy that his grandfather used one in the Canadian military and was his go to saw for years after. He was a good man, a World War 2 Vet, and demands our respect and this is how I choose to honor him and remember him by. Sometimes sentimental feelings about a saw outweigh the performance vs another. At the end of the day they are all worldly possessions that honestly I would give up all my saws regardless to make my Wife's health better. Family comes first. Merry Christmas Happy New Year.
One thing I react to, is what we call HMS here in Norway. I translate it as this, Helth, Enviroment and Security. I think it is important to use klothes and shoes , helmet end ear protektion. It is a cheap investment fore helth. If I as a farmer sendt a worker in the wood without personal protection as mentioned, I would be in serious trouble .
Cold here in Alberta tonight I couldn’t even put the phone down while watching this vid just leaned it up agaist the stove pipe while I got the fire 🔥 going Then I stood up was so in tune watching and 2 min later realized I still had the phone on the stove top. Haha Another great video right till the end.
I like that new 592 its very light for fallers who gets to carry em,and tons of power but for 380 bucks that farmer saw is great drill another hole in the exhaust and port it and you got a saw,but if you get it stuck don't pull to hard it breaks the tank,the sweeds use much better plastics
I just gut laughed when you barked the 394 and hoofed around... ya have fun when ya can! Love it and the vid buddy. Fair test, I think your 394 had lunch first! MAGKD everyone and hey to all! 🐶
Also have the same 394 ported by rich 7 or 8yrs maybe and even after buyin the big 880 that saw will hurt some feelins…not sure the cc’s after porting guessin round 100 vs the stihls 122cc…them ol huskys just dig is my best representation of there power

I know very little about chain saws, but what I have learned today is that to achieve true happiness in life, you really do need a 394!

prevents damage/extends life of starter parts - think tinman talks about in one of his q&a videos
iam so lost .iam not a saw or axe guy,but when a video post I watch and listen. great content

I just gut laughed when you barked the 394 and hoofed around... ya have fun when ya can! Love it and the vid buddy. Fair test, I think your 394 had lunch first! MAGKD everyone and hey to all! 🐶
fun fun fun
I love it. Great saw. They sure are a bulge back lol. Buckin I hope the fire is over. Praying it passes.
Also have the same 394 ported by rich 7 or 8yrs maybe and even after buyin the big 880 that saw will hurt some feelins…not sure the cc’s after porting guessin round 100 vs the stihls 122cc…them ol huskys just dig is my best representation of there power
Just rebuilt my 288XP and its a weapon! Its my go-to saw whenever i need to get something cut without any isses.
Great insight on differ saws on the market
