“Did you drop a nut?”
“Yeah”
“I’ve never done that”
The look on his face! 😂
The classic
Like father like son
I think Onyx is learning to separate fact from BS, I mean fiction..
Compare 12:55 with 15:53...
Did you drop the nut that's funny
You're right. Always lift with your back. Try and be as awkward about it as possible and bend your back in as many difficulties directions as possible too. It helps alot if you drop it directly on your foot too. It feels good.
Jim is a helluva guy, love to hear his story some day when he's not getting stuck
Jim comes off to me as a guy who has stories to share, and I'd love to hear all of them.
Helluva 😂
me too
why do you have to do, my boy Jim dirty like that :D
Nice tractor. We have a neighbor that has a John Deere 9620RX, a Versatile on tracks, and a Case quadtrac
Onyx wants to learn, nice to see that, He is not afraid to get in there and do things, future farmer.
It hurt when he didn't give him the hammer
Its good because so may kids these days arent following in the place of the family farm and it just kills me my grandfather retired when i was too little to take over dad didnt want to farm and i wouldve gladly taken over in a heartbeat
8988888
Get some hearing protection on the lad please, good teaching moment too. Cheers
I saw that too! It reminded me of my childhood. Its great to get kids hands on at a young age even if he decides he wants a different career path down the line, hes learning invaluable skills and to not be afraid of work and figuring things out.
The look on Onix's face was priceless when you told him you never dropped a nut before...
New rig looks good, cant wait for the inevitable future video of Jim burying it to the frame
Yup
🤣🤣🤣
They're gonna have to trade something in so they have something big enough to pull that behemoth out when he does muddy up the frame rails.
I think it's Jim proof.
Sometimes you just gotta lick the stamp and send it
working with you son when he is still a little boy are the moments you remember the rest of you life.... 1000 kudo's for that.....
Jim’s ‘Mornin’ Zack’ is so cool, makes me smile everytime.
Jim's a great guy I'm sure. Heck all of them are!
LOL, love going back every now and then,,, you still have two the two combines... hehe!!!
Love how your son wants to be involved and help out. Learning some good skills
2cts: It's the "Jims" of the world, that really make the world go 'round. Unsung workers who do their jobs well - don't bitch / complain and are an invaluable asset to farms, ranches, trades and businesses across America. I deeply admire people who believe that to work for a living is a virtue.....in my opinion, few things are more patriotic.
Brings back a flood of memories, when I was young. Never saw that kind of equipment but the work ethic was the same. Big fan of Onix!!
It's so encouraging to see a young man like Onyx being given responsibility that many adults never take on. Our future is in good hands. I was put on a 4010 John Deere at his age and was on top of the world.
Hey Zach. Not sure if you’ve seen me ask this before but I think it would be really cool if you put the dates that things were filmed at the first scene of the day. As someone who has family farming in central Minnesota (Paynesville area) I think it would be cool for everyone to see what days your doing what with the weather !
Same
I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your comments, they're really awesome!
Zack said I got faith you can get it stuck 😝😅😂. Plus it's awesome how little man always wants to help and learn new stuff. I use to love helping my dad.
Need to get Jim on the podcast
Yes
Agreed.
Yes that is a must!!!!
Oh hell yes!!
Holy Buckets yes!
The best thing about this video is the fact that Onyx wanted to work and you didn't have to beat him or pay him $25.00 an hour to get him to do it.
im sure onyx has his reward.
hi
@@raypitts4880 probably some snack lol
Hey when Onix is done with those baskets I got some jobs for him to do! 😂 awesome video and congrats on the new Rig!
Jan i think you have to wait until you get your own son to help you. Someday or like we say in Dutch ooit
Yoo
Theres something awesome to kids learning the trade. In my humble opinion id suggest hearing protection though. 😅
I need to send my kid to Onyx to have him teach my kid about good work lol

Your grain cart driver from last fall is picking up where he left off in the shop work. It’s amazing how much help a young man can be when you need two more hands 🙌.
Got to love jim, he's one hell of a guy.
So adorable watching you and your father teach your son. Longtime farmer tradition.
Onyx-I dropped the nut
Zach- I've never done that before
Classic 😂😂😂
Just like every dad in the world 😂😂
Watching you unload the mandago reminded me of loading 955 and 956 mocos on step deck semi trailers built a pair of 10 foot ramps and with one pin pulled they could be colapsed enough for transport
The art of unloading that Mandako tillage unit is a lot easier then the art of unloading an 86ft Bourgault air drill and not breaking anything.
There is something great about a bunch of men working together. Onyx fits right in.
Yes indeed... it's amazing how a few men with the right tools can do the work of hundreds back at the turn of the century.
This ain't no wussy Biden country here, if you know what I mean. ;)
Today the farm was trying to figure out where to put a 2way radio on the 9520r. Then I saw your video and now your way to mount it might be the way.
Awesome to see your son and Jim working together, he’ll learn a lot from you guys.
Your son is such a good helper
Looks like you need to get auto steer on that floor sweeper! 😆 "8 inches crooked, I gotta fix it! It's going to drive me nuts!"🤣
I'm with you on the straight line at the end there. My OCD wouldn't have coped with it being 8 inches out either.
The best part of this video was Anna giving her 'you better start bark' when you were cranking the tractor.
That young buck sure looks good turning some wrenches. Can't wait to see him running the planter.
Nice to see a farming video without yelling and carrion on i like it when Onyx is not afraid to pitch in and get his hands dirty great family farm like you to do a video on Jim he's like family do not know much about him keep up the good work.
Good to see Onyx helping out. Might have the next generation taking over before you know it.
Great video again. Keep it up. I now have my wife watching your videos. That is good because when the wife is happy the world is happy. lol.
Nice to see Onyx helping out, best way to learn
The job never would have gotten done without his help.
It truly is and even at that age it creates life-long memories.
I like that little smirk Onyx gives when Zach is being a smart ass! Lmao.
Nice machine, just waiting to see it 5 feet in the mud 😂, by the way you guys should do an updated machine tour of who owns what and maybe have him tell us his story, he's a cool guy!
I like watching the little guy Brings me happiness to see a kid in the field 🙂
Good to see Onyx helping out and learning
Love Jim, he's awesome. My favorite moment with Jim is the first time he got stuck. That's my personal favorite video of all time. Great Job Zach and your family on podcast and all the other awesome things you do. Thank you
I just wanted to thank you guys for that off the husk podcast about carbon credits. It puts me to sleep within about 7 minutes every time. I’ve tried everything but that podcast is the best for insomnia. Get the word out to anyone that can’t get to sleep. It is the best. 😂
Once again Love seeing your Son involved. Also loved how they delivered the disc to you I worked for Deere dealership and the machines always came in in parts and had to be assembled then we would ground tow to the customer this way was to slick
With Zach,Grandpa & Jim as mentors...Onyx has better educators than any 10 colleges could provide...'6' is on his way!!!
That's why I always felt a bit sorry for "townies". The kids in my school would always get us farm kids to build stuff and soup up their pavement pounders.
I completely understand your OCD and making sure the planter is "straight." 😂
That’s one nice 9R I must say
You guys just plain ROCK! Congrats on the new equipment and watching Onix growing into the next generation is truly amazing. The new equipment is nice Zac but you have something FAR more valuable.....your FAMILY! Thanks for letting us tune in and watch your day to day lives. God Bless you all,,,,
We didn't need to know you and jim go hard at it but it's good you feel you can be so open about those things these days 😉
Good to see Onyx getting involved and helping. Will be a good hand this season.
The 9570 was so quiet while you were driving it down the road, that I was almost tempted to make a tractor sound to make it seem real during that segment of the video.
That is a proud day when the son uses power tools for the first time! I almost shedded a tear watching.
Not bad for a new to you guys tractor least it’s not.....red......🤣👍
If it’s red, it’s dead.
If its red it should stay in the shed
@@Hhhjadeeznuts58, that too
@@Theghostofpeter hahah yep
@@Hhhjadeeznuts58 we are funny 😄
Slow leaks are as simple to fix as replacing the valve core, sometimes easier if it's just loose.
You Need to ask Dougo if you can borrow Martin for a couple days to get that floor really shined up.
Wasn't going to say it but when the sweeper went by and the dust clouded up I was wondering if Dougo could stand it! :)
I'm pretty sure that Dougo would have to be included in the deal. Dougo and Martin are pretty tight. In other words I don't think Martin's a loner?
I feel proud when I see Oniz working on and driving the equipment on the farm so I know you are one proud father.
That boy is getting to be a real asset to the farm. I would like to see him running that big outfit.
I'm sure you'll really enjoy that new to you 4wd tractor it'll help get the job done and haul the grain kart .
"The nut, I've never done that before". 🤣🤣
3 generations working side by side great to see
When you said to your son that you never dropped a nut his eyes rolled in his head ...... 👍👍👍
Wish my father had been like you and Jim. I was just the tool passer. I had to get my own stuff to start actually working on anything at a far later age then your son. Took me buying a 84 Jeep Comanche with a bad head, taking it apart and putting it back together on my own for him to actually let me do stuff.
"im 8 inches off crooked gonna drive me nuts", this is all of us
some assembly required. I always lived helping my dad fix things around the farm.
"Remember to use your back not your legs" lol that made me laugh.
Everything stated! Miracle
And Onyx, my 11 yr old can’t mow the lawn without breaking a sprinkler. Cutting and baling hay one week, assembly tillage tool the next. Rock on.
Onix, sorry misspelled
Dude your daughters are something else. Son too. Great family!
I know it is really work, but I still can't think of a better way to wake up in the morning, knowing that you get to spend the whole day "playing" with such really cool, really big, really shiny (not wrinkly), did I mention REALLY BIG equipment!
11:17 Well done, Lil’ Dude
Love see the good young helper you got working alongside dad
I don’t know if Zac/Zack/Zach made him, but I love how Onyx* just gets in there and starts helping. You don’t see that often out of kids his age.
And the determined look , as though he is recording everything being taught to him. Good job Onyx!
With kids like that, I'd say the future is in good hands. . .
Most kids are stupid!
Onyx i remember the spring and summer that I started working with the men well. Now I'm in Jim's shoes training the young men. Good times, all of it.
Jim is so awesome. He needs his own JimCam™ this season!
Great to see Onix out in the shop getting his hands dirty and learning. Gives me hope for the future generations.
Love when Onix drop a nut and that actor said he never done that before. Onixs face was priceless!
I always enjoy seeing your boy help with the tractors and equipment when so many kids these days can't put their phones down for two minutes.
I hope you’re bringing in some help for that planter. Otherwise you and Mr. Jim are gunna have some late nights. Lol
Zack, thanks again for the 73rd Birthday message! my youngest daughter lily totally surprised me with your message, after farming 80 acres of apple, pears and cherries it is so relaxing to watch you and others farm! thanks gain for the message, Hope you have a great spring. Cherries are just starting to bloom here in central Washington.
I was literally hoping y'all would get a 9r😂😁
Good to see the young man jump in and help. Reminds me of when I was his age. Had to be right in the middle of everything.
Great video Zach, especially love to see Onyx helping out the "o'le man", reminds me of my younger day's and brings back good memories of father/grand father who have both now passed on to the big farm in the sky, many thanks from the UK.
I rolled my soybeans for the first time last year down here in New Ulm. Absolutely loved it!! Not only did they combine a lot easier, but I couldn"t believe how much cleaner the beans were going into the bin without all the dirt!
Hi Zach:
My family owns a trailer manufacturing business as well as a separate trailer dealership business. Firstly, if you need a trailer, we would love to help you. Secondly, I just wanted to say, I noticed that you parked your PJ trailer on the grass. Parking a trailer with steel frame on grass is the absolute worst thing you can do for that trailer. The moisture from the ground gets trapped between the trailer and the ground and you get more/faster rust. Don't mean to tell you what to do or be offensive at all, just though it would be good to pass along my expertise in this field.
Thats what happened to mine
Looks like spring has sprung Zack your busy shuffling stuff around to make room for everything to fit in it's spot
You need to catch up to Larson Farm's on the shop floor cleaner.
I was thinking the same thing. LOL
He needs a "Martin"!!!
Lol anyone find it funny how Larson farms got a new JD 9R and then Zach gets one too haha and the floor scrubber
@@bryanpallardy4849 Larson’s is a 9rx
Three generations working together in the shop...very rich and I’m not talking money.
I love it when Zack says " yooo okay?".
It is so cool to see onyx working along with you and your dad!! Three generations! You got what every dad wants! Bless you all!🙂
He always makes great videos!
Kid is more intuitive with a wrench then some “professional” mechanics I’ve known.
Yes it will start
Onyx is turning into a Good Hand, Dad's gonna have a hard time keeping up with that young Man.
Nice new toys As we Get older our toys Get bigger lol
its a deere, it will start!:P :) EDIT:There you go! Nothing runs like a Deere!:)
It's great how you spend time with Onix and teach him and make it fun my dad never tought me like that all I was allowed to do was watch but my G dad did teach me some while he was still farming I have many fond memories of sitting on his lap steering the combine and tractors those were the good days pity none of my uncles kept the farm going and I wasn't old enough my G dad retired when I was around 8-9 yrs old
She is a beauty
Nothing runs like a deere
@@farmerpat1159... With a massey up it's rear
Jim is a Gem 💎 calm knowledgeable and very safe.
Jim is starting to train his replacement. Another few years and he will retire.
Maybe he is retired and this is this second career
Full respect dude! That looks like a very hard life! Absolutely sure I couldn’t do it! Stay well, and stay safe friend!👍👍
yes i think it will, it’s paused right now, i am not cheating.
Young buck is going to be a stud when he’s older ! Keep it up kid 👊🏻👊🏻
