      Is it possible to start a tree cutting business like that if you have no experience in climbing and de-limbing trees like you see some do with the ropes and bungee cords. I love cutting trees and bucking, but I’ve never worked in it as a job. However, I’m considering a complete career change and just wondering what I should do. I’m currently 37 years old.

I learned alot from him and forgotten alot. He died 16 years ago and had bad asthma and copd for 10 years before that. I ran the stihl and he liked to run his homelite super xl or it was a super xl 12. So you are helping me remember stuff and teaching me stuff I didn't know, so thank you.

    Hey Buckin, Best video ever with the bathroom money shot!
    If you haven't done so recently, get your prostate and PSA checked, don't ask why, just do it!
    I spent the first 5 years of my logging career bucking tree lengths on skidder landings. So every tree was potentially coated with mud, sand, dirt, dust and ice. NE Washington and N Idaho.
    I often had to file 10 to 20 times a day so I quickly learned to file, 400 to 1000 cuts plus limbing. Different brands and types of chain make a difference. Chipper (round top) or Semi-Chisel round filed is very good for dirty or muddy conditions. It's forgiving for beginner filers and lasts well for cutting firewood too.

    Aussie wood cutter here. Over about 24 years I have tried all the different chains to figure what cuts best, lasts longest etc in Aussie hardwoods which are frankly brutal on chain.
    The following I found out through trial and error.
    Aussie hardwood is a complex mixture of resins, silica, minerals and very hard fibres.
    Regular bar oil is okay but not ideal. One day when I had run out I used 10 40 diesel motor oil instead on Ironbark which is an absolute bastard to cut dry.
    The chain ran cooler and stayed sharp way longer. It cut faster too.
    Because it's less sticky it sprays oil on to the teeth as they cut. It also stops the chain gumming up with resin.
    I use full chisel chain now. It cuts a lot faster than round ground and it's quicker to resharpen. I hand file. Every third sharpening I use the new Stihl file guide to get the rakers down. I like it. It works for me. The other thing I always do is run the chain till it spits clean oil after a run. A wet oily chain files much quicker and stops the file teeth getting hot. Also dissolves gum on the chain.

    I've gone from full chisel to semi chisel recently. I am not expert but there are lots of things I like about a semi-chisel chain. First off they just generally stay sharper longer and two they'll survive dirt better than full chisel. In the last two years my cutting has primarily been storm clean up so those features are important to me. Prior to that I thought that semi-chisel was for chumps so I am as surprised as anybody that I now use the semi-chisel so much.
    Thanks for all of your wonderful videos.

    Great & very educational video.
    To address your comments on highly qualified/experienced tradesmen, the reality is, when you start out your career the (what I call) ski jump of education & learning is massive. Every day you learn huge amounts.
    As the tears tick on, the opportunities to learn get fewer and fewer. When those moments do occur to learn something new, it is much more rewarding due to the spacing between those moments.
    Personality depicts arrogance when refusing to accept new lessons.
    I love those moments when the day is broken up by learning new skills & adapting them to make the job easier and more rewarding.
    Once again..... Thank you.

    I don't know, after having a few beers and finding this channel I found myself laughing. As a woodsman the past 50 years I knew you said many things that struck home with me. You're very intense, but seem somewhat genuine. I worked for the Clearwater Potlatch Timber Protective Association(CPTPA) and found myself carrying a heavy old Mcculloch chainsaw in the woods for a long time. Cut through several sets of chaps because by the end of the day I was too tired to handle the saw. My first year in the woods a neighbor friend got tired and was using one hand on the saw and hit a knot, chain cut him across the throat. I managed to continue working. Through time I learned more about proper maintenance of a saw and chain sharpening is so subjective. I'll watch a few more of your videos since you make me laugh. I agree with what you say about the chain. easier and more effective is better and at my age my back can only take so much. Thanks partner.

    I'm just a humble DIY guy, I don't chop logs but for those few times than a little tree branch or stump shows up, I bought a small cordless chainsaw. The stock chain dulled quickly, I threw two more Oregon chains at it and to be honest, for the number of times that I will need this tool I could easily afford a new chain per job and be happy. However, I do like tools, doesn't matter what it does but I like them to be in good working order and so knowing how to recognise and correct sits well with me.

    Great video thanks a bunch. Personal experience re round chain. Dad had me on a saw by about 13-14. We would go and cut firewood. All hardwood, maple beech mostly. He had us cut the limbs down to 1 inch diameter. So when I am young he is bucking the trunk and I am going nuts on the limbs. Lots of firewood in the limbs. Always cut with round chain. I end up getting a bar and chain off a neighbor (same saw) and i am bucking the branches and getting hit by the smaller pieces chain is flinging them, ouch what's going On? Square chain! Absolutely. Grabby on the small diameter stuff. So round it is for this guy for that reason and the durability reason as well. Thanks for the sharpening tips. I still buck down to an inch 45 years later.

    • @Darndiddlyarn
      @Darndiddlyarn 2 года назад +1

      Yep, I run semi chisel on my liming saw and full chisel for ringing because I too find the semi to be smoother on the smaller stuff and if I'm going to hit anything dirty it'll be with that saw, I ring logs in the air and run noticeably faster with full chisel, but I'm also cutting primarily pine, cypress, and lucitanica which I imagine is a much different story to hardwood.
      Like Billy says, just go experience it and you'll find what's best for you.

    I just noticed how you mounted that woodworking vise, bolted to the top of your bench. I like how that helps move your work up higher, above the level of the bench. I may re-evaluate my vise... I turned 70 yesterday and I'm still learning. Life is good.

    Good advice Billy... the ski jump profile or tooth without enough hook kind of scrapes the wood... hard on the saw and you too... a tooth with too much hook is fragile and the sharpened edge wears too quick or gets bent.... but the tooth with just the right amount of hook cuts nice... easy on the saw and lasts longer too (of course rakers have to be set correctly)
    Always admired your encouragement and optimism... Cheers!👍 (coming up on 375 K... way to go!)

    Great content BBR!!! Thanks for sharing your experience and wisdom. Concerning those that write stories in the comments section. Just remember that they probably have zero experience and they Google the information to make themselves look smart. Anyone can gain knowledge but have ZERO experience. Here's a quote I live by as a teacher, instructor and student: "One experiment is better than one million opinions"

    Those Oregon chains are cheap and great for harvesters, but I think the steel is too soft for chainsaws. I have to sharpen them 3 times as often as my Stihl chains. Every minute with the file is time wasted.

    Great close ups of many different styles of chain and grind. Everything you said made sense to me, I learnt the hard way over many years of cutting firewood on my own with no mentor . I even came up with a square grind on my own when I ran out of round files. I was amazed at how well it cut. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge.
