I just finished editing and uploading a video where another truck driver did something dangerous. Typically, it's easiest just to call him a name and then move on. But I've been thinking about things you say about kindness. Even though he endangered my life, the life or another driver, and a handful of car drivers all around us, I stopped and pondered what sort of relationships he has with his special people, his boss, etc. Who knows his story? Not me. Your philosophical moments are the best parts of your vids (at least for me). I grew up in the woods of Oregon and I've noticed that we share a lot (about logging and life). I've already noticed that my vids have changed a little just in the brief time since I've discovered your vids. Keep buckin'. You're on the right path.

Thanks Billy. I'm teaching with my wife in college, we teach forestry and conservation. Videos like this are great training aids for any age from 17-60 years old. Your videos are the best and only ones we use. Your an invaluable source of knowledge and safety for the next generation. They will grow up to respect and look after trees. Thanks again Billy you are shaping the future.

Thank you for teaching us about Bar maintenance. It dont get no better in the Buckin Army. Always love the Video.Always learn something very important. Thank you my good and true Friend.

I ran a 18” bar through twenty chord and few commercial jobs always dressed my bar out and kept the chains sharp.The day I retired that bar it still had 90 degree rails. It’s the only way to get your money’s worth! Good vid Buckin! Keep it up!

Bar maintenance is important, no doubt… Oh yes Buckin'...we are getting stronger, and if we all pull in the same direction, great things will happen :) Love and respect brother, love and respect :) Welcome to all the new friends, greetings to the golden oldies.. hope all of you will have a great week :)

ITS HAPPENING FRIEND

Enjoyed your chainsaw bar maintenance demonstration. But when you were in the house balancing on the ball I couldn't hear you very well at all even though my volume was at 100 per cent. The music in the background was very nice and low enough it didn't interfere with hearing you talk. Enjoyed hearing you play your drums! Thank you for being so willing to share your knowledge and experience with your equipment so we can all take better care of our own. Welcome all new subscribers! Hope you all have a good evening.

I'm a retired (just barely) music professor who grew up in the woods with that rhythm yer talkin' about. I decided to go whole hog into music. I loved teaching. The whole "higher" education situation, though, is a scam. It probably would have been better to stay in the woods, but I'm very glad that I became so involved with music. Maybe it's time to go back into the woods, singing as I go. Who knows what will happen? Not me.

Evening Br,I learned a lot about saw maintaining when I lived up the Pacific Northwest on the Washington state/Idaho border from the old timers. I flip my bar every time I cut and I dress the bar up every time I have the side cover off to clean the clutch side or change chains. I have one of granddads 24” homelite bars that’s over 50yrs old and he was religious about flipping the bars and dressing the burrs off of his bars,that bar still cuts straight and true. I needed a 24” on my 267 hotrod saw and I seen the old homie bar hanging up,I cut s couple bushings because homelite studs are bigger and threw a square ground low raker chain on it and got in to some big cedars pines and that bar tracked like a new bar. Moral is,take care of your tools and they will not let you down.

I was going to fast forward through the exercise ball part... but it turned out to be The Best Part of the video!!! Love your view of life!! Let's change the world together!!! :-) Open doors for others, great passers by with a "genuine" Good morning/afternoon" and REALLY MEAN IT when you ask them how they're doing!!! I love... Good People!!!

You're a riot thank God for you Billy Ray! ❤🌲

Oregon drive link codes: 72 = 3/8" - .050" 73 = 3/8" - .058" 75 = 3/8" - .063" I think you're going to confuse a few people with that chain gauge info, what's written on the (Oregon) drive links is their code not the actual chain gauge. Every chain brand has their own different codes. Hope this helps, good day everyone.

Ha! The night I found this channel I had just come in from the work bench filing and grinding my bar. Learned a lot here, about what I can improve on! Thanks Buck'in! And thanks for all the positive energy. Keep it going !!!

Super informative Billy....loved it !! I did my rails a few weeks back on an older bar and it took a ton of passes to even it up, I was shocked. Looks perfect again. Thx for all the effort you put in brother...it will never go unnoticed. Much LOVE to all you fine good people this Sunday 💖💖 We all got out daily dose of vitamin "B"ILLY today 😃👋👍

Brother Billy you are quite the music machine .I didn't know you had a talent to play all them instrument.I am really amazed with your playing carry on bro .You are dynamite.

The siding on your house is beautiful. Thanks for the tip and keep up the positive attitude. Your a wonderful person.

The production value really goes up with that royalty free background music. Just amazing. I love the drumming 😀

YOU BET BROTHER ,,PEACE TO YER HOME THIS SEASON

Did the bar maintenance thing years ago when I worked at a farm equipment dealer that sold Pioneer chain saws (yes Chain Saws here in Ontario). I have seen them with so much roll over on the edge that you had to remove that first before they would sit flat. Buckin, you provide so much good and sound information. I am just starting to catch up with your videos. Love what you are doing. Glad to be parts of the Buckin army.

Thanks for the tip about running the nest wider gauge chain on worn bars. That will save all your viewers $$$! Thanks for another great video!

Just ground a few bars for a friend Thursday👍 it makes a world of difference. Good tips and tricks buckin! Thank you for sharing! Love to you and the family❤️

Great info for those of us just learning this stuff. I've been binge watching your videos for the past week and have learned lots. Thanks for doing what you do bud!

Good Video Billy! So insightful and a beauty word on kindness. Thanks for sharing. Be extra Kind Friends.

Billy you're my hero, I just turned 40 and I'm starting life over and I'm emulating you good sir. Be good humans! 💙🪓

Every video puts such a big smile on my face. Love em!

Thanks Bill.A subject that I was looking forward to, very important and that will help us to maintain and care for the bar and that I will now be able to do correctly thanks to your guidelines. a hug Bill and again thank you👍👍

This is by far the most entertaining educating vidja. Crazy guy Billy

I have a old logging buddy who never maintained his bars. He would throw them out, I snagged up everyone he was throwing out. Hell I don't think I've bought a bar in 25 years. Now I just need to find a teeth stretcher so my chains last longer haha. My other logging buddies like to run that 404 chain, no clue why. To much Cerf for me. I like My 3\8. I think they like that thicker chain because they wedge every tree they fell. I'm a stump jumper. That's what all the very old school loggers call me. I have never broke a tree and I cut a lot of veneer. Billy's one hell of a feller. I been felling trees for almost 27 years and I seen Billy fell a few trees without a wedge that I sure as hell wouldn't have dropped with out a wedge. Great video's Billy. Keep up the great work.

After cutting my firewood and others for 44 years, I thought I knew a little about saws. You proved me wrong again Buckin. I have several bars I need to work on. Many thanks.

Thanks for great info and an entertaining video Billy. I just love all of your content. Cheers mate.

You have saved many people a lot of angst and frustration by teaching this. I had no idea what was wrong with my crooked cutting and binding chain saw. Now I love using my chainsaw again. Thanks so much!!

Your awesome and funny that's priceless I love it thank you for the positivity and knowledge

Another important lesson grateful learned, Buckin.

Hi Buckin’ Hi All. BE KIND and flip your bars, loving the maintenance videos!

Ahwooooo 👍

I LOVE those old trucks! Thanks for the video!

Guilty, thanks for this video. Although a novice the hurricanes Give my ms 250 a workout and I am always learning and getting better. Love your channel.

Thank you for the great video. I just did the bar maintenance on both of my stihl ms 290 bars and with my fresh ground chains I just did they both cut great. Thank you

Thank you Billy this video had saved my power saw bars thank you so much for your kindness and your information

And here I thought bar maintainance was sweeping up after bar close - learn something new everyday and you're well on your way to being a better person!

Never to old to learn. Thanks for the information. I have thrown bars away, because they did not perform like I wanted. Probably needing some love that I was to ignorant to know that. Thanks Buckin.

Another great great video thank u buckin 👍👍

Enjoyed learning more & more. & billy I’d like to add. You are out of your bar flipping mind haha. Have a good day friend

great info i am going to clean up my bars and inspect them. thanks Buckin.

You are music to my ears ! Bravo:)

Billy ray , thank you for these informational videos my friend , ive learned so much about saws & maintenance thru your knowledge . I will be with out a doubt one of your biggest fans on here . Thanks bud .

Just going back watching some of your old videos since I'm fairly new to your channel. So many people do not know anything about bar maintenance. I get it all the time here's my chainsaw get it running for me and while you're at it I brought this new bar and chain can you put it on when you're done it was cutting crooked last time I used it. I usually say well I can or I can file your old chain so it cuts better than new and maintenance your bar so that it will cut straight. Then you will have a spare bar and chain. Great tip on the belt Sander for normal people who wouldn't have a bar grinder.

Today I had to go give price on a snow removal job on the way I was stopped at a red light and I noticed a man with a couple of small shopping bags in one hand raggedy dirtiest jacket on it's cold and wet in a little bit rainy today and I saw him picking up trash so I put my window down and ask them if he was just volunteering on his own will or if somebody asked him to do it he said no he was just doing it to be nice he said it helps him pass the time so I gave him a couple bucks for a cup of coffee it made me feel good that he was doing that without having an agenda. love wins

I think you are a great videographer and one most entertaining guy .

Thank you, For teaching us and keeping us safe.

Grate video! I learn alot from the information you are giving it to us! Thanks!

Great content and instruction from Your experience! I thank You for IT! Well done Brother!

Good tips Buckin', keep em coming.

I like the way you hold the left drumstick, Billy. Old school, Gene Krupa style. I love that big old Ludwig drumset you have too. Too cool.

Amazing, thanks for taking time and effort and energy to share your knowledge and secrets.

I'm glad I found this video. I have an old bar that I thought was bent because it would not cut straight even with a new chain. I just went and looked at it and saw that the one rail was almost 1/6 higher then the other and has v grooved the center a little. Now I can fix it and have a spare.

Great attitude buddy ,and great advice.keep it up man....

Love ya bud. Change the world...its workin for sure. I'm workin with ya from the middle of the USA. I believe and your a heck of a drivin force my friend.
