I grew up attending then working. My local steam engine and threshing show. I remember having to check the input shaft speed on the thresher. What I remember it was 250 RPM. At that speed, the shaker screens would do the best job cleaning grain.
This is a most interesting video and i really enjoyed it very much guy's ans God Bless y'all 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏✝ 👍
Old Flying Shoe🇺🇸
Thanks for all of your excellent and captivating videos that you send to us UTuber addicts.
As we all know, Big Bud is going to have competition with the new BB from JD; CIH; NH; etc with similar hp even though it will be more farmer friendly to work on instead of that unnecessary computerized clutter in the competition.
I'd like to see BB coming out with a 1000 hp powered Bud and also making wider span machinery to match its hp for less passes across big fields.
So thrilled to learn that Karen is from Big Timber. Looks like my mom would have been her father's classmate, but she would have been one year ahead. We just lost her at 99 1/2 9 months ago. She was a Ward and her mom was a Brannin, from up the Sweet Grass.
Great to see Mom on the videos. I haven’t seen her before.
My grandpa used a threshing machine until I was 10. Never would let me near the business end. Next year they had a custom guy come in with a gleaner combine. I rode around with him and he showed me how it worked. He jumped off to get his dinner from the truck and my uncle came up with the gravity wagon, he darned near died when he saw an 11 year old boy running that thing. Four rows, ( we were doing grain ) 130 inches, lot of levers, got her done. I remember Bob! Take care!
Fun memory👍
The new bud is so huge. You need to get one of those. Thanks to your dad for showing us all the old steam powered tractors. That was so cool.
HEY BOB!!!! Thank you so much for the field trip to the threshers meet up. And sharing a bit more of your personal history.
Thanks Bob, love the old thrashing shows 👍
Bob, in the early 30's my dad was the water boy for the threshing crew and he tells the story of being at one growers farm that was good at home brew wine. After lunch all the crew went down to his basement and sampled his fine wine. Well guess what, no wheat was threshed that afternoon because they were too drunk. LOL! Love hearing you talk about the old days. God Bless!
Almost turned into grapes of wrath if hail came while being "spirited"
My old stomping grounds! I'm proud to say I grew up there. Thanks for letting me relive my midwestern years.
Our pleasure!
Thanks for the last segment. It brought back memories of combining downed grain (milo maize) with the wind in the dust cloud, then running back up the field as fast as we could because you could only cut one way. I also remember using that cream separator to make butter. There are more than one of those old homes sitting, abandoned in the rural south Texas where I grew up. Thanks for the memories..
You bet!
Love that part with Bob wandering around the old time equipment fair and him chatting about his experiences with them. Can't get enough of the old time stories keep them coming!
Oh the memories. Dad raised corn on the cob & each spring we had it threshed by a traveling threshing machine. First combine I ever sat in was a Gleaner Model A, with an aftermarket cab on it. Dad bought it used from a guy that used it on a harvest crew a couple years. Had a 13' head on it, no corn head, as we had a corn picker on an Oliver 77.
Memories. The true education was on the farm, not college. We did it all.
Thank you for sharing the old machines with us
Great videos guys as always. Bob loved the old equipment. I went on wheat harvest in 1967. Started in Perry Oklahoma and finish 45 miles north of Great Falls. I had just turn 16. We had
Massey Ferguson combines with 18 foot headers and open cabs. The old fellow we worked for keep us noth of Great Falls 30 days and we didn't go to town. Washed our clothes in the river. Lived in an old converted school bus. Shelby was our next stop but I had to come back for school. I got back the same day school started. Good memories. Montana was beautiful
That was awesome seeing Skeeter rocking the Fab Rats hat. Them Utah boys have some great recovery channels.
Nick, love your videos but my husband, who grew up on a farm, so enjoys your dads videos. Can so relate. So thumbs up to Dads videos.
We love Colby too! Rabbit!!!
My first Engine rebuild was a Ford 8N, I love seeing the old farm equipment.
4:37 You guys really make a good video. Thank you guys for putting my grandpa’s truck in there, it means a lot to all of us. It was great talking to you at Farm Progress!
That was a cool truck, what a find. Great visiting with you too👍
Always interesting to hear Mr Bob's memories. Farming has come a long way in technology, the "good 'old boys" paved the way. God bless
Thank you for showing us the 'old' stuff. My late grandfather used horses then steam then gasoline to plow his land. He use to take us kids to the local thrashing shows. Hope the crew / family and you are doing well. Take care - Be safe and always God Bless
I grew up with old farm equipment, many years ago. I've also got some experience with a Massey Harris Super 27 combine, ours had a16' header. Helped Dad put a new engine in it about 1966. Ah the good Ol Days. Great memories. Really enjoyed your story about your uncle and the Dodge grain truck. Thanks for Sharing. 😊
Bob - thanks very much for taking us along to the thrashing bee, that was humbling and awesome at the same time!
Mr. Bob Welker thanks for sharing this with us ..This what made our country never forget ...This is what this country needs to inspire agriculture you guys are the best
Thank you much, blessings
@@RobertWelkerFarmerBobHey Bob, it has been a while, Never mind. Have seen m all. Is that Karen walking beside you? Good thing she acompany you there. Wish her warm hello. I took a look where Big Timber is. Wow, you took her long from home. Well, great video, thanks and blessings.
Yes that is my wife. She lived in Big Timber her first 6 years, then Ronan in western Montana.
@@RobertWelkerFarmerBob Thanks, Ronan? I see. Beautifu pace i see on maps. A little (or more) south of your lake house. Again thanks for your time, Apriciate it see you!
Thanks for sharing the memories for sure God Bless you and your family and stay safe up there
Welker Farms is my favorite map on Farming Simulator 22 and it gives me a better understanding of where you are driving around your massive farm.
I can't get enough of your Family Farm, I regularly pray for rain and bumper crops and I admire the Welker family's faith in God.
Appreciate it! God bless!
Enjoy your family Channel , especially as you show the new and the old as we made due with what we had . We all have history . I helped stook grain when 5years old, drove tractor pulling a binder at 11, we brought the sheeves to thrashing machine which was in the barn run by belt. Auger was lined up with grainery. My first combine was a open cab Case built in the fifties powered by a gas slant 6 cylinder Dodge engine . Yes the chaff and wind did get us itchy and dirty . Thanks for sharing .
The professional (Dad) absolutely nailed the heritage display, loved it.
My grandfather farmed near Ponca Nebraska. I remember them stacking the hay into big piles, but couldn’t for the life of me remember how it was done. Seeing the hay rake was cool. They raised everything on the farm. Corn, hay, cattle, hogs, turkeys, chickens, grandma’s garden. They didn’t have indoor plumbing until 79’. Grandma cooked on a wood stove. So self reliant. Such a hard life, but what I would give to go back for a visit.
Always enjoyed thrashing shows. History is amazing. Hope Skeeter enjoys his new build. God bless from Sarnia Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Our neighbor got hurt going between the combine and wagon. Just like in the old threshing days, all the neighbors got together one Saturday, baled the hay, combined the oats, and baled up the straw. The ladies put on a spread for lunch. My dad and I were baling hay, manually loading the wagons. At any given time, there were three empty wagons following us to swap out a full wagon for an empty. We had a ball, and I would have loved to be part of a threshing crew in the good old days.
Thanks! 👍👍🌞🙏
My Gma taught in a one room schoolhouse from 1900 to 1927. As part of the the New Deal her schoolhouse was taken from it place in Toad Hollar and moved to he UoMo campus. The last words she wrote on the Black board are still on it in her hand writing.
They have a heck of a show they put on every year with the old equipment in Brooks Oregon. I enjoy going to it every year.
Loved it. Would have been nice to see more of what your mother and father were doing. I remember when they used a thrashing machine where I lived back in the day.
What a great video chaps I really enjoyed this one the steam rally at the end with Dad was great excellent keep it up
Dad used to pull around a threshing machine back in the 50s and thresh for folks,he always talked about how bad the chaff was...Great Video
There is no doubt about it .. Nick, Scott, & Bob always put out some very interesting and informative video's ... Thank you Welkers for keeping us entertained ..
What a video! The Farm progress Show, Skeeter showing up, and the thrashing demo! Way cool. Skeeter stopping in kind of ties most of my CZcams channels together. Millennial Farmer and the Welkers, Farm Hand Mike, Big Tractor Power, Zach visited Farming Fixing & Fabricating. I was also watching Justin King getting things out in the Colorado Rockies lead to Matt's Off Road which of course led to many, many off-road channels. It is fun seeing and hearing about my favorite channels on other channels.
That's great! Lots of good channels out there
Thank you Bob for taking us to the Threshing machine show I really enjoyed the parts you showed just wish it had been more. The small steam engine was incredible! 👍🙏
I loved going to the Threshing Bee show each year!! Such great times. glad to see its going strong!😪missing Montana
Good show
My grandmother started her teaching career in a one room school in Western Illinois. She retired from teaching in a 4 room school that was K-8 in a small town with 22 students and 2 teachers. When she retired the school merged with another 3 school's in the area.
I attended a one room school with eight grades, as a first grader. That was the last year for that school. In third grade, I had my first grade teacher again. She was always my favorite.
Awesome show Bob
Love to see that even in the us old farm equipment is show at a fair , there are a few places in the Netherlands that have the same idea . Thanks for showing
Great video Bob
Just moved to Choteau Mt. Saw the signs to the threshing bee, did not know what it was all about, and missed meeting Bob, will attend next year's. Thanks for sharing.
My mom had to cook for all the guys when they came to thrash my grandpa's place and then my dad worked on one andy mom cooked and they made wages pretty gool id never seen one actuallt working til now thanks you Mr and Mrs Welker enjoy your wonderful day give colby a pet for me,🙏💕🥰 great video 💕 god bless🙏🥰
Speaking of memories I used to help out at the Ray German tressing be up at four corners. That was in the late 60s. Hi Bob.
I love all that old stuff, bring it on....
Big Bud back to the basics supporting on farm repair also keeps you in upgrade parts as needed. Good luck on the house build, fall rain and that next years bin buster crop rains true.
Nice to see the old equipment running including your Dodge. Around here anything on the road in winter rusts out. I have used sprays to stop rust, rust protection, it helps but sooner or later it starts to rust. Hope you all stay safe and healthy.
Y’all have wonderful families and a beautiful way to make a living by farming. God bless all of you and I will always be watching your videos.
Thanks so much
The whole video was good your dad‘s part was the best showed what made them guys tough and smart👍
Yeah, grew up on a farm 60 miles due north of Edmonton. My uncle who raised me farmed with a 90 and then a Super 92. Know all about the barley beard itch, dust that piled up everywhere, including in and on your clothes. Never got to know the joys of cab life.
I’m 67 and I remember my uncle driving open cab combine with his handkerchief on sometimes you couldn’t see him it was so dusty
Gotta love farmers
Bob, went to a one room school house in eastern Montana Richland county, actually had a sandbox for the 1st grader, (me), to occupy myself while the other kids got their lessons. 19 in all of us in 8 grades. I will forever treasure those experiences to this day.
That was the best education atmosphere young with the old
Great video Welker Farms
Really enjoyed Bob reminiscing over the old days and the thresher show.
Thanks for sharing all about the equipment, old and new. I love to hear them described and watch them run. Give more detail on the functions and history of the machines when you can.
Bob Welker (& Coby) are the real stars of Welker Farms!
😎
And we worry about fire in the fields man those farmers were tough god bless you all and thank you for the look back it’s good to remember
This will be sooooooo awesome when the new Big Bud 700 finally comes to market. Looking good! 😎🤟
Wow, some very interesting equipment, modern and back in time. Thanks for sharing. :)
So I'm guessing a Case with 715 ponnies might get a demo on the welker family farm would be awesome i love it when guys become kids again when demoing new equipment god bless you guy from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Currently sitting in the 715 seat as I type this 😁
I really enjoyed the farm progress video seeing all the massive kit you guys farm with. I still use my grandas grey Ferguson on my Croft. It would fit in with the show your father attended.
If you ever make it up our way in August The Thresherman's Reunion is unbelieveable here in Austin Manitoba. hundreds of steam tractors and the museum town is huge. We used to do a small threshing demo in our local town but no one has time anymore
I really like the tour of the old equipment with Bob. My grandad used a Super 27 and Super 92 to cut wheat in Kansas when I was very little. I have been to Rolag, MN to the Steam Threshers Reunion as well. I just really like to watch how they thrashed wheat back in the day. Thank you so much for showing this part. It brings so many happy memories!! I also know what you mean about the itch from barley. We never raised that, but did raise milo, and I do believe it had more itch per bushel than any other crop Grandad or Dad raised!!!!
Loved the video I used to my grandpa at shows like that he farmed with steam tractors in the 20/30s had big stoinary power unit and small 5/6 unit I still have had an old thresher we would work all week to put on a small show also had a line shaft through his wood shop powered the tools with steam
my father would talk about his mother shocking wheat take in to the thrasher. This was Manitoba in the 1920s, Dad left that for California and swore he would never voluntarily see snow again in his life. He pretty well lived up to that promise. He said the best thing that ever happened to a farmer was rubber tires to replace the old steel rims with spikes. Not to mention tractors for horses.
Brings back memories from home in southeast Texas, I lived in a place called Hankamer, as a kid the population was around 200. Farming and Ranching is still the local economy, and boy I sure do miss it. Made some dough as a young teen during the week and sometimes on the weekends working for the local farmers, wether it was stacking square bales for 20 cents a bale or being in the operators seat of a tractor. Miss operating articulated tractors and combines. I enjoy each and every video from you guys. God bless the farmers.
If I were in charge of the farm I work at, I'd be signing up for one immediately after I saw this tractor in person. All the components are easier to maintain then anything else on the market and it's beefier than the case ih quadtrac 715 that was revealed at the show.
Good mix of videos. Here in Wisconsin we have steam engine show. There always enjoyable. Amazing how hard a guy had to work years ago.
Excellent video with lots of variety!!
Boy Skeeter is getting around way more than when he was with Matt. Gotta make moves on your own to make your life fulfilled. Excited to see what he has in store!!
Man they really made a change to the hood with the side panels. Cool
Great video. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for another great video Welkers.
It was interesting and enjoyable.
Glad you found a home for some of your huge tractor tires. Sketcher is helping to have them for his project. ((Hope I spelled the name right))
Sounds like he will use them on a big truck project of his. Glad he can use your old tires.
Bob and wife, thanks for showing us around that old steam engine show. Lots of old equipment at this show. Appreciate you telling us about that old open cab combine and what it took to run it. Far cry from today’s combines for sure. Wow.
Thanks Bob for showing us around the show. Was most interesting.
You have seen huge changes in farming over the years. Most interesting.
Thanks for everything Welkers. Take care and be safe.
Thanks. The Iowa Farm Boy. Steve.
Thank you Steve.
Hey Bob, my Dad's first self propelled was a Massey 92 and it took all day to switch heads. His first tractor was a MM UB that has been restored and he still has. He's 91 and still lives on the farm in central IL, not that far from Decatur.
Yeah, you have your order in for the new bud
I'll be waiting anxiously for that new Big Bud cab review.
Definitely gonna happen 👌
That supposedly isn't the final cab.
Thank you Mr Welker for sharing the vintage equipment! ❤
Live the video guys especially the ending BOB some of that threshing brings back memories of when was growing up but an awesome video
Awesome video. Glad to know I am not the only one that uses magnetic trailer lights. Ha.
Great video! Love seeing people keeping the old equipment functional and working.
great video. Nice seeing the whole family
Scott at the farmshow:
"I waaaaant: This, this, this aaand this and on top..."😉
Thanks a lot for the video! 😊👍🏻
My first self propelled combine was a Case 120. With a 15 foot grain table and a spike tooth cylinder. Of course it didn’t have a cab. I thought I was in tall cotton then. That was in 1963. Memories
Wonderful video. God Bless your family.
Awesome farm show Nick
Awesome video thanks for sharing
THANK YOU FOR THE POWERFUL CREATING AND PRESENTATION 😊😊😊
Sure enjoyed the show you attended
Glad you enjoyed it
I ran a MF 90 for a few years as a teenager......It was a joyous day when a JD 95 showed up.
Great video as always. Such a great family.
Great fun. Modern talk to text probably doesn't even have Threshing as a word so it "auto-corrects" it to Thrashing which is getting your butt kicked! Fun to hear your bride is from Big Timber. Big Timber was notorious for being a speed trap between Bozeman and Billings back in the 70's.
Must have been when President Jimmy Carter made the 55 rule
SUCHA STEP THRU TIME IN THIS VIDEO GREAT JOB GUYS
Great video, guys
Dad says the real learning took place on the farm
When I was a kid and old harvester with those long belts running off a Fiat would just sit there and run all day long for weeks 😃 good times with grandparents and dad.
You better order one of those new Buds now!!!!!!!!
My dear mum was a farmer's Daughter mum talked about the older thrashing machine on a much smaller scale to your farm 🚜 one of the best 👌 video I've watched 👀 many thanks god bless America 🇺🇸 I come from South East England 🇬🇧
