This Stihl MS 500i is a great chainsaw . But up against this Walkerized 462 it picks up the back seat

this is classic father and son, daddy workin', son playing around with his toys! love it!
absolutely, couldn't agree more !!!
Yep love it haha great to see them 2 together
I am going to buy the 500i hard to get in ct
@@potmanroman6 ?Huh?
Had a pair of trees come down in my yard a couple weeks ago. My dad came over to help me clear it up. Just a day of pruning, bucking, and hauling the brush to the dump. The whole time talking and joking around. It's one of those days that'll stick in my memory and makes me smile whenever I think back.
The 76 year old wood splittin machine outworks most teenagers!!!!!!
no kaka
My mom can still run a chainsaw.....I have to start it for her.....(044).......my mom is also 76 y.o.
That model was tuff.... my wood splitter will be in operation around 2025.... fill in the gaps after then.... 👍🏽
"machine"
100th LIKE - FTW!! 🙌
Nothing better than a BBR video pop up when you can’t sleep
There is one thing that equals it and that's a BBR video when you first wake up
Love my 462. Had it three years and really bonded with it…
It's really good to see you and your Dad together. Nice to see the respect you show to him.
Not only do I love your videos because of my love for saws and wood cutting, but I also like your positive attitude to help me start my day. Thank you Buckin Billy Ray Smith!!
I'd like to see more of your Dad in the future. I just lost mine and it was great to see you both having some fun. Great all around video Buckin' !
This was by far the best video you have ever done, IMHO...Love that you and your dad are able to sitll get out and work together. The view was great and the content suberb. This brings back memories of my father and Grandfather working at the farm in SC. Keep up the good work.
Um... In drag racing, even a few inches count. 500i took the big end compared to the 462. You can visually see the diameter for the 500i was slightly bigger than that of the test on the 462. Regardless, I'd put them almost the same in this test. My humble opinion, I have both of these saws. My 500i is the go to for, if not one reason only, it starts quick and cuts fast all day. No adjustments required. I do not regret at all buying it. BTW... Most of my logging is in South East North Carolina here in the states. We have been removing blow downs from hurricanes over the past couple of years on our property. So, deep in swampy terrain, hard to get back to base camp to fix things. The 500i with a 32" bar... runs all day. Love it.
Well folks I finally got a job. It’s been since COVID started. The positive vibes from this channel definitely helped. Love ya guys.
Sons out Guns out!! Love watching you and family work together. Family is key to Love! This one makes me miss my Dad.
Nice to see you trying out the clear visor. I’ve worn one on my helmet for years and it’s really saved my eyes, especially when the wind is blowing in my face
My father in law watched your videos all day long while he was battling ALS "Lou Gehrig Disease" saddened he lost his battle last week. Thanks for your great videos. We plan to purchase some of your merchandise.
I'm enjoying your videos. Lot's of good info on the chain saws. I'm 68 and love getting out with my Stihl and cutting firewood. Being a drummer as well I love the floor tom converted into a bass drum. Sounds good too. You the man Buckin. Keep up the good work and show more drums when ya can. Rock On!
Those little battery powered saws are pretty cool. My local power company came out for my neighbors and cleared some branches from the lines. For that job, it worked really well. Cool stuff. Great videos Buckin. I really enjoy them.
I love seeing you helping your Dad and your son working with you. Awesome stuff.
Buckin is like a kid in a candy store while his ol' man does the hard work 😂 All jokes aside I wish I could spend an afternoon up there with you guys. Keep up the entertaining content Buckin!
I got my G/F an electric saw with a 12" bar, she likes pruning.. It's an amazing bit of kit. For those days when you just nibble stuff or tidying up the shrubbery, it's brilliant. Like a cordless drill it's sat ready and does the job. Firewood needs petrol...
It’s not said enough but thank you Buckin Billy for spending your time and knowledge with us. Rare breed indeed 👍🏼
The helmet looks good and comfortable. Also sets a good example.
Now a set of chaps!
I agree with Dude Man.
@@billrichardsjr the guys I learned from would not let anyone start a saw without a set of chaps on. It's become ingrained in me.
@@dudeman92 Same as me. Even trimming some branches. His helmet doesn't have hearing protection it looks like. We are a couple of safety Sally's! Lol
@@billrichardsjr I believe he uses plugs. And I've seen him use muffs with really loud saws.
It's awesome seeing you and your father together, cherish the moments...
cant get enough of Buckin on the Stihls
he he
Love Stihls.
Yeah it was great to see. They are darned good saws, darn durable. I would like to see more of this.
C-4, Sacrilege! Laughing!
I'm not the kind of guy that comments on videos but I'll make an exception for you, I just wanted to say thank you for your content, my five-year-old grandson loves your Channel and I know he's safe with you. I don't have to be in the room worried that you would do something or say something inappropriate for a 5 year old, I've been watching and supporting your channel since day one
Thank you Billy you don't even no how much your little podcasts lift my spirits kinda late here but you got me in the mood to do some cleaning and tuning on my saws now god bless
This was a heck of a lot of fun, Billy. Cutting, splitting, hitting the nail, timing the cuts, and seeing the drumming at the end. This was some serious fun! Thanks! I gotta sharpen the Mc 610 this weekend. I like that Husky hard hat too. That visor is really nice. 👍
Beautiful day here in good ol South Carolina! Always lifts my spirits to see a new Buckin' vid!!!! God Bless you and all you do sir!
thank you friend
Buckin it’s good to wear the eye protection. Got to protect those peepers! I like You running the 500i ! Buckin You tell it like it is even if you prefer something else! Nice to see You working with Your Dad! God Bless You all!❤️👍🙏
So much fun for me to see dad workin away with the maul while buckin billy is playin with the powersaws! I really enjoyed this video. Thank you Buckin! And good advice about the sun too!
Looking at Billy's dad here and how active and in shape he is, makes me think of my dad. He's still with me, thank god, but he lost the ability to work or do any meaningful physical activity ever since he replaced his hips.. The operation went bad, and the second even worse.. Now he's got back pain and walking with a crutch. I can see the sadness in his eyes when I'm working around a yard and he can't help out. He was a hard working man for all of his life, and it hurts me to see him not being able to split wood, operate a chainsaw, etc.... But this is the circle of life I guess... Say hello to your paps from me Billy...
I hear you my Dad is the same. He does what he can but you can see he is sad.
Last thing my father and I did before he died was saw and bust rounds together.
I used to split firewood with my Dad, too! He passed from cancer in 2018 and I inherited his old McCulloch from the 80’s, memories for life!
@@CaliforniaCarpenter7 Amen that, brother! Treasured memories for life!
my Daddy is still alive. Am glad . But i am really sorry for you guys . No disrespect .
@@CaliforniaCarpenter7 Sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss
Feels like spring is still 4 months away here in upstate NY. Been snowing now for a month straight lol and no signs of letting up anytime soon. Cant wait to swing some of my new axes I built while in hibernation here! Loving the content and always looking forward to the next video.
Such an uplifting guy, hard working and your dad wow hope I live that healthy for years to come. Love to see positive people and the work ethic just happy everyday thinking of you saying friends love it
I absolutely love the new hard hat. The eye protection is a must have. Thank you for another great video.
Those Stihls just rip! I just bought a 362cm to replace my 251c on Saturday. I stared long and hard at the 462cm but it was hard to justify the extra cost since I’m only using it to help a buddy cut firewood for his house. Really, a 311 probably would have been a good upgrade, but I grew up watching Tim the Tool Man Taylor! 😂 Now I watch Buckin’ as I continue to grow up!! 😂😂
I think every time I watch one of your videos you add another week to my life, you make me laugh!
New to your channel and can't get enough FRIEND! My buddy over here on the wet coast is a second generation production pro, and grooves on the bass fiddle with your same style, and groove moves. LOVED IT MAN! From the smiles to the styles, the walk to the talk, you two are brothers, I can imagine you two in the same room. Keep up the great content, vitamin D soaks,and positive way! MORE DRUM ENDINGS PLEASE! Good job keeping up with POPS! ....."A man has to be tougher than the timber he's cuttin..."
I thought you were a tough man, your pops is badass!!🤘🤘
Side by Side was KILLER!!!
I’m about to get a Stihl today. Thank you for your time and dedication!
Been watching your vids for a while. Good stuff man!!! Learning alot. Thank you
I love my climbing helmet with the flip down eye shade visor. Super convenient. Takes a bit to get used to but I love it and I added some stihl ear muffs and I really recommend their design and the slots they fit into are all universal for hard hemets & therefore interchangeable. Very happy to see an old saw man getting safer and setting a good example for the rest of us youngins who look up to Buckin Billy Ray Cheers from a fellow climber & saw man from north Pittsburgh
I just turned 72 last August. GET YOUR DAD A HYDRAULIC SPLITTER!! I wish I had purchased one 10 years ago!!
Loved seeing you work so well with your father.
Super smooth on the kit at the end, Buck. Thanks for your videos and your spirit. Appreciate you. Much love
I REALLY like all the Stihl saws I’m seeing on your channel lately Buckin! Great stuff🤙🏻
enjoy while its here , may not last,, lol
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith Stihl Buckin'!!!
Heck I love my huskys and stihl chainsaws but if you had Donnie to port the 500i and slap a Ford sticker on it might would kick the 462 out of the truck lol jk. God bless buddy have a great day!
It's great that you get to spend some time with your dad. Nice work!
A word on electric saws from my experience. Black and Decker elec. Pole saw. Never fails to start. My battery also fits my power drill. Got 3 batteries and makes more work than I care to clean up in a day. Very happy. In cold weather 34° and lower battery life is cut in half. No disappointments. Its never failed to work, never flooded, can't get ethanol poisoning. Battery powered saws are good if you don't have a saw in your hands more than once a month. Loved your video as always. You exude peace and happiness. Bless you and stay safe. Good drum chops too!
30:37 dads never stop giving "that look" to their sons. haha.
The older I get? I’m less impressed with how fast a saw goes through a log. And much more impressed with the least amount of pulls to get the damn thing running….. I’ve had a 044 for 30+ years. Great saw. But I’m looking hard at that 500. Great channel bud! Be safe!
Agreed, the 500i is a joy to start.
A chainsaw that is running 30 yrs from when you bought it is a saw that hasn't been ran much. You can buy any saw in the world and set it on the shelf in the garage, start it up a cpl times a year, and it'll start and run 30 yrs later...
Buckin I like to count you as a teacher and a friend. Thank you for all of your kind teaching and good words. If you ever come to Whidbey Island please look me up I have a great campsite you are welcome to use. God bless you my brother may all blessings come to you
I love watching w the captions on while you run the saws it always says (laughter ) when you start the saw then( applause)when it's warming up then (music) when your throwing chips
One of the buys that still stands out in my life today was an 044 red trigger saw in 1993. It was a huge purchase for me back then, the kind that made me nervous. We were falling big Dfirs and Sugar pine in the northern Sierras. Other guys had bigger saws. I discovered back then that the 70cc saw was the best daily saw to have on the job. I still have that saw with only one rebuild on it.
That's a patriarch saw bro one of THE best ever
044 was a awesome log building saw also...
Yep, 044 and ms440, best all around logging saw ever
One of the best saws ever made. I just bought a new ms 400, but there is a an old 044 down at my local pawnshop that I have also been eying.
Dale Earnhardt was a lucky man too until the day his luck ran out! Looks crazy seeing you with eye protection but your a smart man and idk bout you but I like my eyes
Thank you for the unbiased side by side comparison! Really liked your stump stand!!
Love the new helmet my friend. Thankyou again for gifting me a t shirt on the last live feed. Much appreciated.
Watched a video recently of the 500i and 572XP head to head. They were very close in cutting speed but the 40% less $ for the 572 is hard to overcome. 572 is a pound heavier but uses less fuel. Thanks for putting it up against the ported 462. Another bit of info to hold onto. Thanks Buckin
Not sure where you got the 40%? but locally here in BC they are about 20% difference
@@RI-td3gv the guy that made the video stated that he had paid about 40% more for the Stihl. Don't remember where he lived.
@@G-PA-2795 I believe that's because he had custom work done to the engine, added on top of the list price.
I own both the 572 and the 500i and I prefer the 572 by quite a bit. The 500 seems to be more comfortable in the bigger wood, but considering they're both best suited to second growth, or under 32" bar size wood, the Husqvarna gets my vote.
Memory serves me correct the 572xp has been modified
You know Friends, Sometimes safety lashes aren’t strong enough for tough work protection. I have always said if you are going to be stupid, it pays to be tough Thank you, Kenny
Your Pops is a man after my own heart - an old Ford Truck and a dull maul and I’m ready for anything 😁 Cheers, Buckin’
Thank you for helping me pick the 462 R-CM I love your channel you help so much
The helmet looks really clean and nice looking, looks like it’s a perfect for for you and you should always be safe than sorry! Love the work buckin!! You are an idol
Buckin, great to see you & your Dad doing what you love! My Dad always said, "Haul a big enough load so you won't be embarrassed if your friends see you.". Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us! "Be Kind friends."
Dad gets exited when the cameras out ehhh. Hehe. Awsome show. Buckin trying out some new stuff. 💪🏻💪🏻 Keep it up brother. Kindness and love
BFP 💚🌳💚👊👍
I'd be happy with either saw. The helmet looks great; a lot like my outdoors helmet with eye protection to boot. Your old man knows a 'thing or ten' about splitting wood; I love the way he used the maul as a wedge and then slammed it with another maul or sledge hammer. This has given me an idea.
that is some entertaining g wood cutting there. I didn't even mean to watch this video but it just popped up and I listened/watched the vid (mostly listened) glad to see your dad still in the work day. good for both of you. god bless.
Like the helmet. You know we only come with one set of eyes and one head, why not protect them?. Hat's off to you Buckin. I think this is my first comment in watching you for 2 plus years. Mike Morgan plugged your channel. I learned a lot about power saws and sharpening them from you. Keep up with the great content.
glad yer here
Hey buckin where’d you get that classic husqvarna patch on the back of ur jacket?? Would like to get one for my jacket!
I like the hat with the shield. Nice sunny day. Great that you spent some time with your Dad.
Hiya Buckin, Great to see you n dad, out and about. Stay safe 😁
Dad looks like he could be your older brother, good shape for his age, whatever that might be.
11:35 ...76 years old.
my dad was strong to in 70+ then sudenly every year was weaker fast.
@@tikrslokis thats waht happens, sometimes just one year
First time watching ya buddy...after many many many folks have told me to check ya out! Great channel! Josh #stoneyridgefarmer
Welcome friend
Love the helmet Buckin', I paused the video and went to Amazon and bought mine, I bought a Pfanner Protos Integral Arborist Helmet in green and grey, I did watch a couple reviews first though, thank you for everything you do!!!
Love you guys Billy and Father! Never stop what your teaching and living the American dream.
Did anyone notice how the 2 saws running together sounded like an angry hornets nest?😂😂😂
Anybody else here found themselves saying "friends" throughout the day thanks to Buckin?
Just a kind word that stuck with me as well. Flat earth crew
Love the videos. Love both saws. I am going to get the 500i, for sure. That nail kind of messed the battery saw test. Too Bad. Thank You Buckin' for all you do. Take Care, Stay Safe and Be Kind...
Great to see your Dad splitting those logs. And you with the eye protection. I think the glasses are good, I never rarely if ever wear a hat when sawing logs but usually wear safety glasses as have heard eye injury horror stories. You are right about the battery saws for construction - I have had a Stihl msa200 for years and now the 161T which I think are even better than the husky for construction as they have the 1/4" narrow chain and make very smooth cuts. But the safety police are going to go mental at you for touching the bar when the battery was still in the saw and chainbrake off. Too early for the spring feeling here in Scotland but the Sun is getting a little warmth in it and the Vitamin D is very welcome at this time of year. All the best.
Good helmet, just need ear protection
Yep there's not much worse than losing ya hearing and having the ringing in ya head for 15 years. I have trouble having conversations with people. I have always worn hearing protection but I've still got damage from cheaper quality ear plugs and from the occasional forgot to put them in.
I have both saws, and I’m convinced the 462 is better. Maybe the 500I will be better soon, but for now, definitely not. I run them with my friend the past weekend and he actually said the same. Those saws are freaking monsters.
Iv always been a husky guy too but I just got a 038 as your getting into these saws perfect timing
Buckin! The look on your face when you were using that battery powered saw was priceless. You looked like you either were gonna take a nap and wait for that saw to finish getting through that wood or like you are bummed you were gonna have to go get a haircut by the time it finished🤣🤣
Hey buckin. Can you show the process of how you clean up a rusty axe head. I know you don't use the vinegar like some suggest. Any helpful tips is great. Thanks chad
Good to see the eye safety gear. You've been lucky so far not to loose an eye.
We have bought the 500i to replace our old 361. We needed a small, light one for Smaller woods, run them with a shorter sword to be Quicker on the gas and honestly im super happy with the buy. Used it to cut down a lot of smaller trees. And it never failed on me. I was very sceptic at first, but it proved its worth. Greetings from germany, just found out about your channel. Some nice techniqes in your other Videos as well.
Can’t beat a good drummer!!! Love it
Is that a lake I see in the background, may I say beautiful!
I am a Stihl guy, but the factory chains need a little love right off the hop in my opinion, after a careful going over though they rock. thanks Buckin!
I agree. Brand new chains are lame until they've been properly sharpened
Love the side by side , that was good your edit are great.
You know I’ve been watching your channel for awhile an I’ve never commented cause it’s not something I do, but I have to say I love it! Hahah I always get a laugh in an a big smile! Not use to seein yeah in a helmet like that with the eye cover! lol but I truly like the channel an what you put out from the video, info, positivity, laughs, kindness, fallin timber, climbing, an love for powersaws!! Keep up the good work Buckin!
Your dad is a BEAST! Does he ever take breaks, or was he just showing off for the camera? I feel so decrepit now!... I gotta get outside more in all seasons!
Seems to me the 500 just looses some rpm in the thicker section. Really easy to compare when he does side by side shots. I like it
OH OH! oh dear lord!!!! WHAT A SOUND!!!! and love that preparation for the show!!!!! BE KIND!!!!
Great video Sir! Keep that eye protection on! Fits you good! All support from Quebec , Canada
That 462 is a HOSS! I’ve recently bought a 362 myself as my one and only saw (as I’m not a professional) and have been tickled to death with it thus far.
Its a FINE SAW.. the 362.. but to put the 500i into perspective. The 362 is a 59cc chain saw wit 4.69 horsepower, weighing 12.3 pounds.. the 500i, is a 79 cc chainsaw, with 6.7 horsepower weighing 13.9 lbs. And they are both roughly the same demensions.. so for 1.5 more pounds, you get 2 more horsepower ( alot for a saw) in a saw the same size.... Thats an unheard of gain... Its accomplished because the fuel injection does away with space the carb took up... All of these specs arent even taking into account the responsiveness and reliability of the fuel injection system.. it truly is a game changer.. i love the 362... And youll be fine with it as a home and ranch guy... But the reasons above is why the 500i is such a big deal.. and you can read all day about it.. but untill you run one thats past its break in period, you cant explain in words how much saw this is for the package it comes in
@@no.step.on.snek.2423 no disputing that’s the 500i is the tits, just saying how much I like my 362.
@@no.step.on.snek.2423 so you would def buy the 500i over the 462? I currently have the 362 and looking to upgrade...
@@timberlineoffroad if you like the way your 362 feels, imagine it with twice the power , acceleration, and torque. But in a package roughly the same size.
@@no.step.on.snek.2423 ooooh nice! Ok so its worth the extra money to skip the 462 and go straight to the 500i?👌
Love the new lid, need the muffs on top, save your hearing, you still have time
So glad when I hear you say "OPE"... I'm from Midwest US (Yooper, actually!) and we say "ope" all the time... other recent videos have made me realize it. It's kind of like "oh" and "oops" combined!
Gotta love the island, last week snow, this week t-shirt weather😂😂
My shop just picked up a 500i. found that thing to be a ripper! in wyoming we get crazy elevation changes quite quickly so it can be a nuisance having to adjust carbs, granted it's not done often but it's definitely nice to not have to worry about that. Lovin' the hard hat, but watching you cut hurts my ears buckin'! hearing doesn't heal, and music is too good to lose
Excited for this one!
yahoooo
Love seeing you and your dad working together
The 18 inch kick drum still packs a nice little punch. The snare is up there but it has a nice crack. Nice drum kit.
