I realize there is always work to be done as far a maintenance goes. I spent most of my childhood on a dairy farm. Milking cows Morning & Night as well as fixing fences feeding out hay, grubbing tussocks, spraying blackberries & other jobs to numerous to mention. I keep forgetting you are on the other side of the world in the middle of winter with probably a metre or more of snow in the paddocks.
It is nice to see someone think outside the box. I am a dairy farmer &, I do alot of my own maintence too. But, neither me or any other farmers that I know here in WI. have this many break downs! I agree with you there are only so many hours in a day to get work done other than repairs.
German rods on a Danish pump in an American barn, an international morning for sure! Hardi Sprayers are cheaper to buy, but by God, they make up for it on the spare parts! Nigel in Ireland.
in the years of watching his ch he does show his hay fields and corn fields and when you dont see many videos for a while he is busy in the field or shop
repair work is "actually doing work around the farm". its just the way it is. something always needs fixed. farming isn't all driving tractors and doing stuff in the field.
Hey Wes have you ever tried a Lincoln rechargeable grease gun. We use one on our farm really cuts down on your greasing time. Thanks for your videos keep up the good work. Hope you guys have a safe spring
hello there, love the videos! just loving the American dream, as a welder/ engineer I naturally closed my eyes when you arced up with the welder but im really curious as to what the type of rods you used to do this cause if there is no spaks come off them after welding with the grinding I would like o to know, are they hardfacing rods? as in the same that are used to weld a hard edge to dozers or buckets for quarry or mining use?
After watching your videos for a long while and noticed a lot of your videos are of maintenance of tractors and other machinery. Do you ever get around to or have enough time in a day to do actual farm work? There are only so many hours in a day. It would be nice to see a few videos of you actually doing work around the farm
Yeah, cavitation is the enemy of hydraulics. Air being sucked into the system or if no air suction leaks i9t might be caused by not enough fluid being supplied on the supply side... supply hose too small, supply lines plugged. However, good vid as per normal.
That pump looks like a fun thing to turn into a radial steam engine.
