I was a cutter for almost 30 years for logging companies. Even used a McCullough 125 in the early years. This guys for real. That's how you're supposed to do it. When you're out there in the woods and it depends on how much you cut, you learn things to be more productive because your family's lives depend on your abilities. This man is doing what every professional has done since I started cutting. My Father did it before me too. The same way he's doing it.
73 YEARS OLD.JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNELLFOUND OUT I DIDNT KNOW DIDDLYABOUT SHARPINGA CHAIN;Thank very much,by thw e way 45 years sober;keep up the good work
One million views and damn do you deserve it billy this video is gold. I’ve watched it 5 times and now showing my employees while we’re on lunch break. I own a tree company and your videos helped me more then anything else. Thank you brother and god bless
enjoyed the video!! My Dad was a logger all his life. He started at age 13 and stopped at age 82. The video brought back memories of watching him file his chainsaw. I remember he had a Stihl 090 model with a 5ft bar for the big trees. He had two circular sawmills and he sharpened them by hand as well. He was a wood man !!
Dude, after 12 years as an amateur sawyer I finally got it. You achieved in one video what countless hours of practice and study had yet to achieve. I can now ditch the guides and that stupid grinder I bought from Harbor Freight. Thank you, sir. Today I became a man.
Billy, been cutting since 1977 and love the wood heat, but I have always struggled with the sharpening. What I have learned from you over the last couple of days I can't thank you enough. Be aware that you have truly made a difference for me. Your video of that chain with all the different size teeth just blows my mind. Folks, what Billy has taught me is that if each raker is in proper depth to "each" tooth, then there will be different size rakers, but the saw will cut perfectly straight. I had always used the depth gauge that lays across a bunch of teeth, instead of the one that lays on top of the tooth and goes down to the bottom of the tooth in front of it. Plus when the raker is filed, since the gauge is at an angle, the front of the raker gets filed at the same time it is lowered so there is no need to round it. Amazing stuff here Billy, you are the chain dentist. Plus I learned about the point and the gullet of each tooth, and how to do it free hand. Just blowing my mind, if only I had known this 43 years ago. Thank you Billy, thank you, thank you, thank you. I just now tonight bought the depth gauge. Have any tricks for human teeth?
Buckin, I remember a little while ago you mentioned doing jobs and giving back just for the spirit of giving. You are dead on, my friend. My wife and I cut and split a big windfall oak on our property last night. This morning I loaded it up and took it to a friend in need of wood to keep his family warm. Completely unexpected, but greatly appreciated. Man, it feels GOOD. Be blessed friends. Love one another.
A lad that was a couple of years behind me at school lost his wife to cancer last year .well iv been tinkering with the idea of knocking on his door some day and asking him if he has some electrical jobs needs doing .im a electrician by trade .i might just do that .
In a bunch of his videos he says he hits the back of the racker on the back stroke. Seems to be against the saw filing technique if ya know what I mean lol.
@@andrewlafogg4041 i know what you mean but it doesnt do any harm. The file only lightly touches the raker and neither the raker or file are affected. It keeps the file in the slot and lets you immediately have it in place for the next stroke. Lifting it out would be unnecessarily tedious. 😁
I can never watch these Chain Sharpening Videos enough. There is always something I missed from the other times I watched. Thank you for making so many Videos,and Get the Gullet.
Great video. I miss cutting firewood every year, from dropping trees and splitting it by hand an even stacking it all. But I lost the ability to walk and most days to even stand up. I truly miss them good ole days. Brings back those great old memories watching this video, thank you so much. At least I can still teach others the proper way of doing things with a saw like you are doing.
Dude you are such an inspiration. Thanks for the helpful video. I just got my first saw a few months ago and I’ve been addicted to your videos. You have such a positive attitude and such a great outlook on things that sometimes I just watch a video for a pick me up. Keep on keeping on. You’re making a difference in people’s lives beyond cutting and sawing.
Great video, my last McCulloch, 25 years ago was a 5-49 : steel cable for a starter rope with a rotating carburetor. Lost but not forgotten. It was an experience to hear it run and cut that stays with you. The vexation of sharpening a saw for amateurs like me was gadgets. Always thinking I needed more than a file. Nothing beats you down like self doubt. It prevents you from so many experiences. You saying just get in there and get after it is some great advice. Love your channel.
I have tried so many different guides and watched many different videos, been burning fire wood for over forty years. Your video and the simple explanation is what I have been looking for. Did it this afternoon , what a difference. Thanks so much!!!
THE best chain sharpening video I've ever seen, with some helpful life advice thrown in for good measure. This dude is the manliest man who ever manned!
Thanks, coworker gave me a saw he couldn't get running. It just needed carb cleaning, but when I started cutting it would just make a fine dust. Thanks for the sharpening tutorial, now it cuts great!
Great vid Buckin’! Just ordered a 7/32 file and can’t wait to clean up a few chains. Storms rolled through today and I was able to help a few neighbors with downed trees and limbs. Thanks for all the encouraging words!!
Respect and gratitude from Texas for sharing your knowledge. Pulled a 27 year old chainsaw off the top garage shelf. Hadn’t run in 25 years. It’s not the best saw but never had use for something on a pro level. Went through the carb and she fired up. Why spend money for something new and shiny when a classic will do the job. Quickly realized the chain needed sharpening. Having run across your videos before, I knew exactly where to go for no nonsense straight forward info....Buckin’ Billy...Thank you.
That was a whole lot of fun. You got a great personality. I was just watching to get another perspective on sharpening and ended up with a renewed vigor for life. Thanks to you.

I have to say I spent the 30 something minutes watching this video . after watching multiple videos from others on how to sharpen the chain. I finally got what I needed from your video to make my chain sharp and cut like brand new again. thank you for the time you put in this video. it definitely helped at least one person!
Thank you so much for doing what you do.Iam 73,friend of bill w for 45 years I have watched so many of you videos my wife realized i wasnt watching when say "here it comes".i had to take down a 75 ft white oak in my back yard and found right quick i didnt know squat about sharping a chainsaw..you showed me the way.have a Husqvarna 61 and aqured a Husqvarna 395xp. "what a saw".i also have and old cs525:clinton just as a show piece."needs a drive belt.Once again thanks so much for being on yourube.
Love your knowledge and dig in attitude. Your teaching people the art of having a feel for their work. Feel the file cutting, watch the upper edge of the tooth produce a sliver, watch the gullet. Great work teacher.😎 Thanks, Sid
THANK YOU! That was amazing Mr. Smith! I've watched many a video, read many an instruction manual, and tried many a time to figure out what you have been referring too ( the boat, get the gullet, the "C", etc.) This showed all of that and then some! I greatly appreciate this good sir. Thank you again!!
Just a Hillbilly from Kentucky here.. I have been using the 13/64 on my 3/8 chain cause that's what I was told to use but was reading the manual last night and it says to use a 7/32 file but the kicker is it tells me to angle my file 10 degrees in an upward motion and even though I haven't tried it I can already say that's not going to feel like a natural motion due to cutting into the strap of the chain and here I find the only video on CZcams so far I've watched that explains it all. Getting my saw out today and trying that 7/32 file, thanks Bucking Billy for the helpful information. Your the man!!
I only ever use the one hand to file. I also preffer to run a saw I sharpened myself. I hate cutting wood with most people because once they see me file they always want me to sharpen/straighten there chains up, usually it takes more than a time or two because they are beat or at weird angles and what not. Thanks for the videos!!!
I'm an August Hunicke fan and only this year discovered Billy's videos. Watched a few occasionally and not in any particular order. I was looking for info on the Timberline sharpener when I stumbled across this video today. Though old-school in technique, I watched the whole thing and decided to put Billy too on my regular watch list. Excellent camera work, narration, and editing. Very satisfying. PS: Not sure about needing that Timberline anymore (except maybe to use on 1/4" chain). Going to take a look at McCulloch's product lineup too.
Truly an amazing video. The dig and then let off (Something that I had guessed at before) was exactly what I needed to take my sharpening to the next level. Thank you so much Buckin'. If your videos have helped anyone it is I. Lots of love friend.
Thank you again. I studied guitar when young. I was blessed to be around very accomplished musicians. The truly great ones rarely had attitudes. They always encouraged learning and “if taking golf lessons.......learn from someone who’d played the PGA”, so as to limit the busy work and the irrelevant. Thank you for sharing your real life experience.
Just picked up a Power Mac 145 yesterday, came back to this video to brush up on my sharpening skills so I can get that little old saw back to work around the yard. Thanks for another great video, as always Buckin! 😊
Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your knowledge on sharpening a chain. Watched a bunch of videos. Then yours. Sharpened a beater saw this weekend using your techniques. Its not perfect yet. But its the sharpest I've ever gotten a chain. Worked the gullet before the cutting edge worked great!
What a quality video! I've been watching for a few months now and really enjoy all your videos but this one really drilled down on the "edutainment". Great job Buckin!
I’ve been using a chainsaw for 20 years for my firewood. It never occurred to me to put the saw in a vise to sharpen the chain. Thanks Billy. Love the videos!😎
Just bought two new files and followed your hand filing technique. Took down the rakers and gave it a test run. Cuts Like a champ. I think my file guide will finally be retired. Thanks for your help. Keep up the great work.
Thank you Buckin’! Your videos take the mystery out of the regular instructional lectures. Simple, easy to feel methods and my chain has never been sharper!
I'm sitting here watching you sharpen that chain, I look behind me and you have not only me watching you have my wife and daughter watching you sharpen a chain too lol. That says a lot about the video right there.
Billy thank you for teaching me how to file a saw chain .I finally got it, this video did it for me .I will get much better now with the tips thank you .
Your videos are great. You have helped me a ton. I harvest wood in the Virginia Piedmont for heat. Your videos have gotten me out of a few pickles. Stay sharp Billy.
Thank you for your videos. I am a 68 year old lady and I appreciate your compassion and also that you don't just address guys. I have a little 14 inch battery chainsaw that I need to sharpen and now I am ready to do this. Thanks again friend!
Went from learning how to sharpen an Axe. To sharpening chainsaws. Feel like I got my own teacher who’s happy to teach me everything he knows. So very cool and thanks for passing on these earned lessons. I know I didn’t have a clue. Now I have a little little clue. Lol. Thank you bucking.
I’m new here, needed some help hand filing my old chainsaw and now it cuts like a dream! This guy is the real Mac of the chainsaw world! Keep up the good work!
Awesomeness!! Thanks buckin, really help with my filing. My grandpa and father tought me back 30 years ago (14 years old) how to file. I have gotten away from the timber years ago and now getting back to it again. There's no better feeling and peace it brings to me, hope it does the same for my boy.. Really needed this refresher course lol. Keep those videos rolling and God bless my friend!
Hey Billy lm 74 yrs old still love watching you get the most out of the tent God has given you it's been quite a few years now boy it's been a great journey since day one.All your how to videos simple easy to understand gives even the layman an extra edge .like all those experiments with the mufflers love what your doing all around.Got any tubers watching yet .LOL. Growth is good .Its your Barometer buddy ttys Cliff
Awesome lesson from the master, thanks Billy I will certainly be following your method for sure!! And the proof is in the pudding - we have all seen how easy your saws cut! Cheers mate.
I've been shredding logs ever since I got the technique it helps when somebody shows you the details. Seeing is believing and I seen it work. thank you!
Great video Billy. I tried to sharpen my chain and just got dust, not chips. A huge limb fell down this week and you’re helping a novice out. Thanks again!!!
I tried many times to learn how to do this. Your video is perfect, I finally learned all about it from your video. And I too ended new with a renewed vigor for life! Thanks to you. Thank you Buckin'
Thank you so much for this. I have forever struggled to get it right and have been using an electric one for years and have never been too impressed but it did the job. I took the time to watch this video and followed the instructions. I went and cut a ute load of wood today and my saw cut better than new.
Great tips. I had cut some some concrete with my old chain (getting a form out of a tight space) and couldn't get it to cut straight until I watched this and cleaned out the gullet. Works like new now.
Yep, this guy is the real deal. I followed my grandpa and my dad around in the Oregon woods from the late 60s and this is how they filed. I still file this way at a relatively young 60 years.
Hello Billy, its Brendon. I subscribed back when you were near 1500 subscribers. You have done so well for you and your family. Your videos have been so inspiring, educational, exciting and how a true gentleman behaves. I'm sorry I don't normally comment but this video puts you above the rest. I've watched almost all of your videos and you keep me grounded living in the big city. I recently bought a new 365 xtorq with a 24" bar and already looking at the 72cc upgrade and exhaust work too. Bottom line is I love power saws almost as much as you do. Anyways, have a Buckin good summer and take care of yourself and family too.
I’ve been watching your videos for years and I need to say Thank You! Never thought I could sharpen a chain better than a Stihl chain fresh out of the box…I was WRONG! I purchased files for my various chains and I’m impressing myself with how all the saws cut. So thanks again for sharing your knowledge.
I'm 47 ...have called myself sharpening a saw.....i was rong.....thank you for the video.....when I seen your building full of saws I new you were the man.....i watch ur videos all the time love your personality and thank you for showing how to do it right
I was watching thinking, he's not doing "the boat" anymore... and then there it was. :) I love these videos. Buckin's motivational speaking for people who don't wear suits.
Thanks for the detailed video! Probably the best one I’ve watched! Very detailed and camera and close up’s really took over the top! Great enthusiasm! Heck! Makes me want to go sharpen my chain, and all my neighbors! Thought you were going to pass over the rakers but you got them in at the end! Overall…Excellent! Thumbs up and Thank you!
I feel like factory/consumer instruction say to sharpen on an angle & with the smaller file, so you lose your gullet after a sharpen or two. That means you gotta buy another chain...😏👌 Sly buggers! When you explained the gullet over time, it changed my filing for the better & it all made a bit more sense. I appreciate you for that....so THANK YOU👋😂 Hope 2020 treats you & yours right! STAY SAFE
Finally, chain sharpening from someone who makes it happen without all the un-necessary gismos, but with great camera angles, close-ups, and without annoying background music.
This video was so very helpful. I am a journeyman carpenter and love to work wood but really had no idea how to file a chainsaw fast and correctly. The rake gauge is next level. Thank you so very much. You attitude and mannerism is pure gold. Harrison Arkansas. I love to cut wood too.
By watching you on the latest season of Ax Men you taught me 4 things about cutting trees that I had never done before. So I took it upon myself to try them out. I Chop cutted a tree like you guys did. Then I climbed a tree with my chainsaw on a rope and cut the top out of it and went down 3 to 4 feet at a time. As I would cut the tree off I would push it away with my other hand. I was like wow both of those 2 things I seen you all do really work. The other 2 things using the 7/32nds file on my big Stihl chainsaw and a 3/16th file on my little Echo and little Stihl chainsaws. I also throw a weighted rope around trees I need to pull towards a certain way to miss a building etc. I always cut by myself and you guys really helped me overcome the fear of using a chainsaw......THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!!!
Hey Buchan it’s Will I’m happy that you’re doing this video I am just getting into cutting and splitting wood and I was wondering how to sharpen my saw all right I’m very happy that you made this video keep it up happy new year and god bless
I thank you so much for taking the time you do to make your videos especially this one you said you put a ton of time and I'm sure a ton of energy into this video and it's exactly what I need getting started cuttin trees. You are real live inspiration buddy keep the flame running hot
You can’t rush perfection! That’s something for everyone to bare in mind. Take your time and be happy to learn. Even if you learn from doing it wrong. Try again and again and again! You will get it! Like mentioned in this video, it’s very enjoyable to sharpen your own chains knowing you are saving time in the long run is the speed of your cuts. Don’t waste time counting your strokes, only take your time making each stroke worth it. No point in rushing. Speed comes with experience. The more you do something the better and more efficient you will get! This is a brilliant video and helps me loads! Like many of his videos do! Much love to you all! Take care!!
*“Why are ya draggin’ yer file back! Haha, no I ain’t!”* 😆. I loved that laugh! You’re having a lot of fun in the video I can tell ☺️ *”Look at it. Freaking sharpolios!”* In all seriousness: you are indeed very skilled at this, and made it much simpler than I ever thought it to be! I’ve done the double angle and it’s very challenging. I dreaded sharpening it because I couldn’t get it sharp, in spite of a sharpening guide! Now I’m excited! 🙂
Thank you so much.I got a pole saw with the chain already on it.. after a little while I saw it needed sharping. . I went through many videos on you tube that did not show exactly how to sharpen the chain or it was too far away or bad lighting. Buckin Billy Ray you got it just right. I learned so much watching this video. I thank you with all my heart. You are the very best teacher. I just loved this. I had my chain saw right in front of my laptop and just did it the way you showed. Just like I was in a class. Big thank you.
I sharpen my chains by hand also but normally on the job, I picked up some good pointers from your video and it improved my saws performance so I just wanted to say thanks, Rickie

But with less tatoos.
Good info I watched your short on boot s with ccr playing loved it 👍👍👍👍😎
I will sharpen my chainsaw the way the guy with 400 chainsaws has taught me :) thanks
OMG this poor guy only has 400 chain saws oh whyyyyyyy.😲🤔😃😮
I’d do the yellow ones first then the orange ones lol

I'm an August Hunicke fan and only this year discovered Billy's videos. Watched a few occasionally and not in any particular order. I was looking for info on the Timberline sharpener when I stumbled across this video today. Though old-school in technique, I watched the whole thing and decided to put Billy too on my regular watch list. Excellent camera work, narration, and editing. Very satisfying. PS: Not sure about needing that Timberline anymore (except maybe to use on 1/4" chain). Going to take a look at McCulloch's product lineup too.
Truly an amazing video. The dig and then let off (Something that I had guessed at before) was exactly what I needed to take my sharpening to the next level. Thank you so much Buckin'. If your videos have helped anyone it is I. Lots of love friend.
By far, the most educated, mature chainsaw videographer on youtube today. Such knowledge!!!
thats nice to hear , thx
Thank you again. I studied guitar when young. I was blessed to be around very accomplished musicians. The truly great ones rarely had attitudes. They always encouraged learning and “if taking golf lessons.......learn from someone who’d played the PGA”, so as to limit the busy work and the irrelevant. Thank you for sharing your real life experience.
Thanks Buckin! I have learned a lot from your sharpening vids and can actually say I can file my chains and get them to cut great. Thanks!
Thank you very much for that, finally got it. Has made a huge difference. So satisfied now.
Just picked up a Power Mac 145 yesterday, came back to this video to brush up on my sharpening skills so I can get that little old saw back to work around the yard. Thanks for another great video, as always Buckin! 😊
Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your knowledge on sharpening a chain. Watched a bunch of videos. Then yours. Sharpened a beater saw this weekend using your techniques. Its not perfect yet. But its the sharpest I've ever gotten a chain. Worked the gullet before the cutting edge worked great!
What a quality video!
I've been watching for a few months now and really enjoy all your videos but this one really drilled down on the "edutainment".
Great job Buckin!
I’ve been using a chainsaw for 20 years for my firewood. It never occurred to me to put the saw in a vise to sharpen the chain. Thanks Billy. Love the videos!😎
Have a look up a stump vice for the field, $10 tool will save you a lot of frustration away from the shop.
Square tubeing slide right into Reese hitch put on a plate and then vise works great
Just bought two new files and followed your hand filing technique. Took down the rakers and gave it a test run. Cuts Like a champ. I think my file guide will finally be retired. Thanks for your help. Keep up the great work.
Thank you Buckin’! Your videos take the mystery out of the regular instructional lectures. Simple, easy to feel methods and my chain has never been sharper!
pretty sharp aah
Beautiful sight to behold seeing those filings flying and seeing that burr wire roll over the top. Great video.
I'm sitting here watching you sharpen that chain, I look behind me and you have not only me watching you have my wife and daughter watching you sharpen a chain too lol. That says a lot about the video right there.
I watch Billy's videos with my wife and daughter too.
Best practical lesson on YT in a long time. Thanks Billy !
Came to CZcams looking for a quick tutorial on sharpening and now I’ve found hours and hours of videos I want to watch from Billy Ray!
Never can get enough advice on chain sharpening! Ty for your time👍
Holy smokes on the chain saw stash!!!!
Billy thank you for teaching me how to file a saw chain .I finally got it, this video did it for me .I will get much better now with the tips thank you .
Arguably the best chain sharpening video on the internet. Thank you Buckin'
Your videos are great. You have helped me a ton. I harvest wood in the Virginia Piedmont for heat. Your videos have gotten me out of a few pickles. Stay sharp Billy.
Billy, Opening those doors to the saws. Vintage old Macs quite impressive! I am learning a lot from you!
Thanks, Steve
How old are those saws? McCullough hasn't made a good saw in years.
Thank you for your videos. I am a 68 year old lady and I appreciate your compassion and also that you don't just address guys. I have a little 14 inch battery chainsaw that I need to sharpen and now I am ready to do this. Thanks again friend!
Went from learning how to sharpen an Axe. To sharpening chainsaws. Feel like I got my own teacher who’s happy to teach me everything he knows. So very cool and thanks for passing on these earned lessons. I know I didn’t have a clue. Now I have a little little clue. Lol. Thank you bucking.
I’m new here, needed some help hand filing my old chainsaw and now it cuts like a dream! This guy is the real Mac of the chainsaw world! Keep up the good work!
Excellent Billy, I feel like I learned something! Gonna give hand filing another strong effort. I’ve never been good at it. Thank you!!!
Awesomeness!! Thanks buckin, really help with my filing. My grandpa and father tought me back 30 years ago (14 years old) how to file. I have gotten away from the timber years ago and now getting back to it again. There's no better feeling and peace it brings to me, hope it does the same for my boy.. Really needed this refresher course lol. Keep those videos rolling and God bless my friend!
Hey Billy lm 74 yrs old still love watching you get the most out of the tent God has given you it's been quite a few years now boy it's been a great journey since day one.All your how to videos simple easy to understand gives even the layman an extra edge .like all those experiments with the mufflers love what your doing all around.Got any tubers watching yet .LOL. Growth is good .Its your Barometer buddy ttys Cliff
Awesome lesson from the master, thanks Billy I will certainly be following your method for sure!! And the proof is in the pudding - we have all seen how easy your saws cut! Cheers mate.
That Chainsaw shack is like Superman’s fortress of solitude !
Thanks for sharing up close and with perfect detail.
I have Stihl files. What brand of 7/32 file do you use, if you wanna share.
It reminds me of a guitar center... Only with chainsaws
I use the STIHL files also ... 13/64th for 3/8 .050 ... I found the ones that have Germany on the top work the best
You can soak your files in vinegar overbite too to make em last ... the reaction etched the cutting edge of the files
Best chainsaw filing video on CZcams by far!! I love how you break it down to make sense for us beginners. Thanks for posting this
I've been shredding logs ever since I got the technique it helps when somebody shows you the details. Seeing is believing and I seen it work. thank you!
Great video Billy. I tried to sharpen my chain and just got dust, not chips. A huge limb fell down this week and you’re helping a novice out. Thanks again!!!
Rakers were probably not taken down
I tried many times to learn how to do this. Your video is perfect, I finally learned all about it from your video. And I too ended new with a renewed vigor for life! Thanks to you. Thank you Buckin'
awesome Geno thx pal
Your collection of macs is about the greatest thing I’ve seen ever
He’s definitely made McCulloch come back in the light lol, tons of Facebook pages of vintage McCulloch chainsaw collectors lol
Thank you so much for this. I have forever struggled to get it right and have been using an electric one for years and have never been too impressed but it did the job. I took the time to watch this video and followed the instructions. I went and cut a ute load of wood today and my saw cut better than new.
well done brother , happy for you
Great tips. I had cut some some concrete with my old chain (getting a form out of a tight space) and couldn't get it to cut straight until I watched this and cleaned out the gullet. Works like new now.
Yep, this guy is the real deal. I followed my grandpa and my dad around in the Oregon woods from the late 60s and this is how they filed. I still file this way at a relatively young 60 years.
I’ve never been more excited now to file my saw than I am now! Your voice will be in my head the whole time
let us now how she cut
Hello Billy, its Brendon. I subscribed back when you were near 1500 subscribers. You have done so well for you and your family. Your videos have been so inspiring, educational, exciting and how a true gentleman behaves. I'm sorry I don't normally comment but this video puts you above the rest. I've watched almost all of your videos and you keep me grounded living in the big city. I recently bought a new 365 xtorq with a 24" bar and already looking at the 72cc upgrade and exhaust work too. Bottom line is I love power saws almost as much as you do. Anyways, have a Buckin good summer and take care of yourself and family too.
The Tao of Chinsaw sharpenning. 20 minutes in and I haven't felt this relaxed in 20 years. Thanks friend.
I love when you do hand filing videos. I pick up a little more each time.
Love this guy's passion for his topic. 😁😁😁
I’ve been watching your videos for years and I need to say Thank You! Never thought I could sharpen a chain better than a Stihl chain fresh out of the box…I was WRONG! I purchased files for my various chains and I’m impressing myself with how all the saws cut. So thanks again for sharing your knowledge.
Też się uczę fajny film
I'm 47 ...have called myself sharpening a saw.....i was rong.....thank you for the video.....when I seen your building full of saws I new you were the man.....i watch ur videos all the time love your personality and thank you for showing how to do it right
I was watching thinking, he's not doing "the boat" anymore... and then there it was. :)
I love these videos. Buckin's motivational speaking for people who don't wear suits.
Great info on hand filing. Keep 'em coming. Certified STIHL tech, I prefer my grinder. But to each his own. 😁
Yes I agree and a good filer knows just the right time to take it out. It's all in the eyesight and experience.
Thanks for the detailed video! Probably the best one I’ve watched! Very detailed and camera and close up’s really took over the top! Great enthusiasm! Heck! Makes me want to go sharpen my chain, and all my neighbors! Thought you were going to pass over the rakers but you got them in at the end! Overall…Excellent! Thumbs up and Thank you!
Best and easiest how to video to follow. Thanks, the results speak for themselves. Thanks from this Aussie!
I feel like factory/consumer instruction say to sharpen on an angle & with the smaller file, so you lose your gullet after a sharpen or two. That means you gotta buy another chain...😏👌 Sly buggers! When you explained the gullet over time, it changed my filing for the better & it all made a bit more sense. I appreciate you for that....so THANK YOU👋😂
Hope 2020 treats you & yours right!
STAY SAFE
You can get it back. Just never use a electric sharpened. It goes straight down and gets to hot to. And losses the gusset 👍
Finally, chain sharpening from someone who makes it happen without all the un-necessary gismos, but with great camera angles, close-ups, and without annoying background music.
This video was so very helpful. I am a journeyman carpenter and love to work wood but really had no idea how to file a chainsaw fast and correctly. The rake gauge is next level. Thank you so very much. You attitude and mannerism is pure gold. Harrison Arkansas. I love to cut wood too.
This was the best chainsaw sharpening video. Slow motion was great. Some people have gift for teaching. Thx
Billy u have more chain saws than Carter has pills.
Your the pro so I follow your advice and your always right on.
Thank god for you.
By watching you on the latest season of Ax Men you taught me 4 things about cutting trees that I had never done before. So I took it upon myself to try them out. I Chop cutted a tree like you guys did. Then I climbed a tree with my chainsaw on a rope and cut the top out of it and went down 3 to 4 feet at a time. As I would cut the tree off I would push it away with my other hand. I was like wow both of those 2 things I seen you all do really work. The other 2 things using the 7/32nds file on my big Stihl chainsaw and a 3/16th file on my little Echo and little Stihl chainsaws. I also throw a weighted rope around trees I need to pull towards a certain way to miss a building etc. I always cut by myself and you guys really helped me overcome the fear of using a chainsaw......THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!!!
Most helpful sharpening video I've seen yet. New to this and it all clicked for me, finally. Thanks!
Your knowledge and positivity is a breath of fresh air in an upside-down planet. Thanks for sharing brother much love from Alberta
Hey Buchan it’s Will I’m happy that you’re doing this video I am just getting into cutting and splitting wood and I was wondering how to sharpen my saw all right I’m very happy that you made this video keep it up happy new year and god bless
I drag and tickle my file too...and the amount of strokes doesn’t matter get the tooth sharp good video 👍
Caleb Thacker I guess she wasn’t in the mood...lol
I thank you so much for taking the time you do to make your videos especially this one you said you put a ton of time and I'm sure a ton of energy into this video and it's exactly what I need getting started cuttin trees. You are real live inspiration buddy keep the flame running hot
You can’t rush perfection! That’s something for everyone to bare in mind. Take your time and be happy to learn. Even if you learn from doing it wrong. Try again and again and again! You will get it! Like mentioned in this video, it’s very enjoyable to sharpen your own chains knowing you are saving time in the long run is the speed of your cuts. Don’t waste time counting your strokes, only take your time making each stroke worth it. No point in rushing. Speed comes with experience. The more you do something the better and more efficient you will get!
This is a brilliant video and helps me loads! Like many of his videos do! Much love to you all! Take care!!
12:45 is GREAT confidence in your felling ability....lol! Awesome job 👍
The BEST hand filing video on youtube. 🌲🌳🌿🌳🌲
The 'Viking Tree Service' one os pretty good.
Have watched your video 50 times and still working at trying to sharpen my chain right. Great info and a great guy. Enjoy your videos.
it will come friend .. thx
Thank you for the education. I’m 67 years young and you proved that you are never too old to learn.
nice
Enjoyed the heck out of the video and learned a lot ! Thanks so much!👍
*“Why are ya draggin’ yer file back! Haha, no I ain’t!”* 😆. I loved that laugh!
You’re having a lot of fun in the video I can tell ☺️
*”Look at it. Freaking sharpolios!”*
In all seriousness: you are indeed very skilled at this, and made it much simpler than I ever thought it to be! I’ve done the double angle and it’s very challenging. I dreaded sharpening it because I couldn’t get it sharp, in spite of a sharpening guide!
Now I’m excited! 🙂

Been cutting for 45 years,and I see your video's and they give me strength. We never know it all coz eveeytree has mind of it's own love your videos.
Dude knows his shit, but I’m subbing for the great attitude to life in general.
Probably one of the best videos EVER!
Thank you so much.I got a pole saw with the chain already on it.. after a little while I saw it needed sharping. . I went through many videos on you tube that did not show exactly how to sharpen the chain or it was too far away or bad lighting. Buckin Billy Ray you got it just right. I learned so much watching this video. I thank you with all my heart. You are the very best teacher. I just loved this. I had my chain saw right in front of my laptop and just did it the way you showed. Just like I was in a class. Big thank you.
Been around the logging industry since I been old enough to walk. This guy is the best teacher I have ever seen!!!!
I sharpen my chains by hand also but normally on the job, I picked up some good pointers from your video and it improved my saws performance so I just wanted to say thanks, Rickie
