    Alright now, my first comment. 70 year old man, been physical at work all my life, In MI. Still staying busy and moving. Fishing, hunting, got me a collection of saws. A cpl of huskys, a cpl of echo's. A craftsman for the nieghbors to barrow. Have a good day, every day above dirt is a blessed day & keep moving.

    i'm 29 and taking a job in the outdoors 3 years ago was one of the best decision in my life. I started felling trees with an axe with a big 30'' handle ( I'm 5'6 by the way) on it because I wanted to do it the old way and for the thrill of it, I like a good challenge, and it was one! But it just felt really GOOD having a big deadly axe in my hands and then I was hooked!! 1 year ago I picked up a chainsaw in my hands for the first time in my life on the job. And boy! that was AWESOME TOO!! It's just like you said in the video Buckin, we can't explain it, it just feel good, being in the rain, in the mud, working, grabbing, felling, walking, then walking back, sometimes cursing, but oftentimes smiling because the guy next to you is as crazy you are and you never felt that good in your life. I normally don't comment on your videos but on that one, I felt the need to say thank you for the great content you put on your youtube channel. You sure did help me to understand a lot about chainsaws, felling trees, filing, axes, etc. Since then I started chainsaw carving, felling trees from 6'' to 32'' both with a chainsaw and an axe, made some good calls, made some mistakes but never too bad, always learning a little more, my chains are sharp, my axe are sharp! still got my two legs, making somewhat good money working in the forest and having fun doing it.
    So yeah I hope you see my comment because it's just huge Thanks to you!
    take care and keep up the good work Buckin!

    Falling legends are out there. My dad started falling in his early 20's. He's 66 years old and still falling. But more importantly he's mentoring and teaching. Keeping this art alive is so important!

    I would put a lunch box locker in Myrtle when I was in there changing gears. But that’s just me. I think sure footedness is important as they get older. LoL

    LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT! I turn 50 years old this year, and am just about to start work with a company doing climbing and falling. Up until now, I have been bucking small trees just that size for firewood, and that 37 minute video is exactly what I needed to see right now! Keep on keepin on! Much love to all from Northern Alberta!

    This is a particularly heart warming video. These young men are to be admired. Working together and watching and learning from a master craftsman. Your talk at the end Buckin about getting physical and all worn out sure resonated with me. When i crank one of my Saws up at 66 years old it still gives me a mighty lift. love it. love your channel good happy days to all new subscribers and everyone else.

      When I did residential landscaping, clients regularly would comment that I must be exhausted and sleep at night because of the heat and labor. I always replied without missing a beat "ma'am with a tired back and a clean conscious everyone would sleep as well as me".

  • @derekmeier1
    @derekmeier1 2 года назад +1

    I feel the same when it comes to working hard for a living, I always sleep better and am in a much better mood when I put in a full days work. It always warms my heart to see old timers in a craft take time to foster the skills of the next generation. The wisdom you can gleen from someone when you are willing to set aside your machismo and learn is outstanding. Peace and love from Oregon Brother

    Hey Buckin, 1st I want to say thank you for just doing what you do. I've driven 8 lug ford's for 25+ years and a 3.55 gear is great for everyday driving especially on interstate speeds "70+mph"but I seemed to have a little bit "just a little bit" when I was pulling something really heavy up a hill and wanted to get into higher gears. However I have always used a old granny gear T18 or new process transmissions never automatics. My 1986 F250is a 300 inline6 with a BW T18 4speed 2 wheel drive 3.73 rear gears and it does alright all the way around. Never drove it pass 75mph though and I run 235-85-16 inch tires and I love it. Just my experience with the 8 lug Fords.Good luck with your decisions on Myrtle. She's a sweet old thing.

    Hey man. From down in the hills of south central PA - only been with you for about 6-8 months - but this just brings me home to the big woods up north. My wifes dad was a logger for 25+ years and he passed two years back way too young. I miss the guy, and this brings me back to those connections. I wonder if he watched your videos too?! He was a go to 372 Guy. I have one - and one of his 550xp’s. Love to let them scream! Im in engineering project management and the inspiration I get from your videos to just focus on what I want to be doing is what I need. There HAVE been worse times - and I am feeling pretty good too!

    Mornin Buckin and everyone.. it is Neat when your boy follows in your path. I grew up in the tree industry cus my old man was a climber so I've been going to work with him since i was 3, then over the years his back went out so i started climbing. But after only 10 years of climbing I'm also following my old man's bad luck when it comes to back problems 😔 i have collapse disc compressing my spinal cord from my neck to the center of my back.. i watched my dad hang up his gear for the last time.. praying i don't have to hang up mine soon... This is all i know😔 anywhoop stay strong stay positive and keep the saws sharp!!

    Hey, Buckin Billy, I’m an gear head from Tennessee. I’ve got a 76 Ford with a 390 go to 3.25- 3.55 gears my old truck does good with the 3.25 gears.
    I had a 1983 with the in-line six with the granny gear trans like Myrtle it had 3.08’s and it was a beast pulling but I could still run 75-80mph without twisting that old 300 six cylinders guts out.

    Hi BR
    It is good if the experienced share their experiences with the younger ones. It is even better if the younger ones also accept this and use it for themselves. In this way, the new generation can develop with the experience, develop methods further or newly and hopefully work even more safely. And if the son continues the profession of father, ... just great!! ( Text is translated … 😇 )
    Best wishes to you, your family and the folks!
    Be kind!
    Carpe diem 🍀❤️

    Couple of questions from an old rookie. I’m 60 and just starting because I love the trade: How do you limb the bottom side when bucking? There is most assuredly limbed that broke and are under the log. Secondly, all you cool axes and you are sporting that blue. Take out your masterpieces, they have soul and are dying to work.

    Billy can ask why you use different wedges on the back cut first trees?
    Iv notice the wedges you use have been modified with what looks like one of the corners have been removed?
    Would like to know a bit more detail on this from you as you are the only one I know that use’s this technique?
    Ps it makes a lot of sense to me why you do it and would like to try it myself
    When the opportunity arises.

    It's not hard to explain - Physical exercise makes you feel good. From a medical physiology perspective it's well understood and documented.

    Of a two-bit nowhere town
    Fathered up some rock 'n' roll (baby)
    So your mothers could boogie down
    I ain't whistling Dixie
    No I'm a rebel with a groove
    All around the world the go 'round and 'round
    When they dig on my new stainless steel sound oh yeah
    I'm said a lumberjack baby
    And I'm gonna cut you down to size
    I'm a lumberjack now baby
    And you're the one you're the one that gets my prize
    When you hear my motor running
    You know I surely be coppin' a rise
    Oh! So I'm gonna crank it up down the alley and jack it
    Woo
    I'm a lumberjack now baby
    I'm a lumberjack now baby
    I'm a lumberjack now baby
    Ohh I'm a lumberjack now baby
    But I ain't jacked my lumber baby
