    You guys had us on pins and needles as we watched from the deck!! You could tell we were all glad to see that tree go, as you could hear us cheering as it hit the ground!! It cost me 3500 when it's roots plugged my sewer 3 years ago ( daycare house). Then 2 weeks ago, the folks beside me felt the wrath of this beast. A few of us neighbors have wanted to see this gone for a long time. Thanks for finally putting an end to our misery!!!

    I must say I was pleasantly surprised to see a logger who knows what he is doing. Not just that but the saw choices as someone myself that spent alot of years logging. I have done alot of jobs like this that make you get real nervous in the back side. Best saws I ever used was a husky 262 and a Stihl 066 those two saws laid out a awefully lot of wood. I loved the 262 for the medium and small stuff then went for the 66 when I came to trees over 36 on the stump. The 262 had a great power to weight ratio where the 66 was the heavy hitter when you needed it. You had a 266 which was just slightly bigger than my 262 I loved that saw but sadly I see they discontinued making it a few years back. Even though I am disabled I still get called on occasions to come cut trees no one else will. Got a couple popular trees that I need to cut this summer that's hanging over a church. Twin stumps so they could prove interesting but I have seen and done far worse.

    Love the 661 just got mine ported new exhaust and a Flow Max intake! My buddy Gorty at West Coast saw Phenomenal job! This saw feels like I can pull down a house! Incredible difference it makes! Now I need to find me an old 044/066! Cut more wood and trees with those two saws then any saw the face of the planet! Or just maybe a 3120 always loved the bigger saws don’t no why but just something about that torque that just keeps pulling you through it all! Gosh I love power saws! Like Buckin says it’s a sickness I can’t be helped! Love this channel and Community! Loves you all have a blessed day!

    Love watching this and don't know why! I don't even work in tree service but it makes me want to cut wood! LoL Just, purchased a lot of old power saws so I have been watching lots of saw stuff. Came across Buckin' Billy.. now I am hooked. Most positive guy on You Tube. Great work guy's! Stay safe.

    I never thought I’d see a 661 being run on this channel! It’s my favourite saw to run 🌲🪓🥳 awesome work!
