" If he gets stuck, I'll probably have to use Bill to pill him out." Good one, Jim 😂
Your funny Jim
Yeah. If Jim hooked up all his good horses I'd lay bets they couldn't shift it.
Yhat feeling that you could stay there watching them all day, is the same as we feel about watching your farm life living. Thanks for bringing us along.
This is their farm life!
Also a huge investment/improvement.
Yes, Jim and Brenda, I'm sure it's gotta cost a "pretty penny" to get this done......? From what I understand, it's all about draining your lands of excess water - right ?
LOL, "if he gets stuck I will have to pulk him out with Bill". Priceless!
Great drone shots…really puts the job in perspective. Very interesting process of improving drainage. Loved the juxtaposition between old horse power and new horse power.
Oh, WOW! I'm impressed, Brenda! We are blessed with an irrigated 2.5-acre hobby farm with two 125# LG dogs, Hannah and Arlo, 3 cats for mouse control, 50± chickens (including 2 roosters) 5 garden spots and 52 assorted fruit and nut trees. I'm out harvesting grapes and almonds today, so can't watch the whole video right now, but I can't wait until dark so I can come back in and watch your whole video! God bless and protect Gordon family farm and all who dwell there! 🐴🐴❤❤🙏🙏
Had no idea they did anything like this! But I do know, the dozer and the backhoe has a device on them. That is taken readings off the tripod, to get the levels where they need to be! Other people are saying Ken was looking at the dozer and saying he can't do that. But I think he was looking at it and saying Me and Bill can do that Boss!! Lol Y'all stay safe!
I so admire seeing the workers who do these different jobs, that takes skill and training. Using a laser is so accurate at spacing those rows. Awesome drone footage!
That's amazing. The horses didn't know what to think about that big thing in the field.. God bless🇺🇸❤️🌹
Kenny was definitely paying attention. I was hoping he wouldn’t freak. But he was fine. Good boy. Nice to see Lady again, too. Do we know yet if she is pregnant?
Very impressed with the whole process, the machines, techniques etc! Really hope this makes a big improvement for you! Will be interesting to see how it all looks after you have had the chance to plow it to even the fields all out! Thank you so much for sharing this with us all!
Yes, the pipe was running pretty good already by the next day. Could fill a 55 gal drum in just a couple minutes.
20 gpm or so, already.. :-)
Wow, that’s amazing how much tiling they did during the video. Can’t wait to see the final results of this project.
I was waiting for this day as never understood what you ment by tiling the field. Very educational for me Jim as this is why I enjoy your channel. Good to see Ken and Lady together and how well they stood with the noise of the machinery. God bless you Jim and Brenda. Can hardly wait to see how you wean Bree from Lady..
I totally agree. When heard tiling all I could think of was something similar to tiling a floor or backsplash. I've learned a lot about draft horses, working a farm, and life in upstate NY.
Ken was lookin' at that dozer like he was thinking "There's no way I'm gonna do that".
😂😂😂
I know it's expensive but you will be sooooo happy you tiled that field
Jim, we all have our ways and methods, and last time I weaned a foal, she went into the yard, w shelter shed, where they spent their nights. I quickly shut the gate before her mother got to it, all calm and strolling, said to the filly "That's it, you are weaned". Mare in the paddock, foal in a stout yard, see touch commune but not suckle. Peace. After a few days the mare began to wander and graze, and about a week later the mare was totally removed to the home farm. I had handled the filly and never any trauma.
And you have the advantage because she no longer fusses when Lady goes off to work, lays and sleeps.
When Dirt Perfect does his installation of drainage pipes, he puts a bright orange riser that sticks above the ground. If this interests you, he has numerous CZcams videos, building the dozer attachment and installing pipes in numerous fields.
I think the pvc tileing pipe to so much better than the hard concrete/stuff we had to use in the past when my Dad had tileing done on our ranch and the way they do it now is better, we had a backhoe, digging the trench the whole way, and we were laying the tileing pipe ourselves behind him, and it was, I don't remember how many days it took but it was definately more than a couple. And the pvc being in coil is much better than pallets of stick pipe that you had to unload....you will love the results of having a drained field! Love the videos!!
This was so interesting! The name "tiling" sure put a different picture in my mind of what they did! I sure hope this works & drains your field well. The drone shots are beautiful! I bet the guys working the job would enjoy seeing it! Thanks for sharing! 💕
In times past, field tiles were made of clay pipes, which, when made on a half- form were also used as roof tiles. I believe that's why it's still called " tiling" even though it's now perforated plastic drain piping.
@@californiadreamer2580 thanks i was wondering
Facinating!!! I wouldn't get much work done either. I'd be watching them work all day!! Loved the drone footage!!
Yes, it is fascinating to watch this being done by birds eye view.
Some machines that lay the pipe use the laser to control the depth of each pipe, creating a gravity flow downward. That applies to the main line and the branch lines. Don't know if this machine has a laser control on the back to adjust the big plow. It does look like an antenna rising up from the rear of the plow that would interact to the laser..
Hello from Uxbridge, Ontario. I think you should make it Sunday for one of your days for downloading. We watch you on our big-screen TV and it feels like we are with you. Sunday is a nice day to sit back and watch our favorite CZcams channels.
No Sundays Jim and Brenda and family go to church and day of rest .😊
I see in the drone village at the bottom of the field the other trench that run down to the woods by the cabin. I take it to that drink leads to the Pand maybe now there'll be more water into the pond. Or will the pawn need to be dug out a little bit to handle the amount of water? Just wondering looks very interesting.
And hopefully, it solves the water problem and allows the excess water to run off. So next summer, haying isn't an issue.
Uh oh!! How many rocks are they gonna find?
Jim, I don't think even your best 4 horses could move that.
Very exciting day, real professionals. I knew of this system for drainage, but thought it was just for sports fields.
Greetings from Australia.
The farm I worked on back 20 years ago tiled 200 acres over 2 years. We just took the tandem discs and straddled the tile runs and kind of chopped up the ridge, but didn't do too much leveling that first fall. The sinkage over the winter was quite a bit, and the next spring we chisel plowed the runs fairly well, but we were putting corn in so didn;t have to be immaculately smooth, we picked a lot of stone! Next year we went at it and smoothed the fields for seeding down and used the rock rake and stone picker to pick the worst, then sowed the barley and hayseed and hand picked with fork and wagon after. All in took 3 years to get the tile runs worked in once they stopped settling. The tiling people back then told us it would be a year for the groundwater to create the new channels and "find" the pipes.
I just spent a long day doing custom manure spreading 5 miles away, took 1.5 hours there to spread 14 loads, and then 5 miles home, got back at disk. Had 3 on the spreader. Now eating steak! Cheerio folks.
Got back at dusk, sheesh!
I’ve spent thousands on tiling and never had the opportunity to see how they did it….thanks Jim.
Jim, Brenda most amazing video ever!! Now in know what Tile Drainage is! I hope it gives you the best improvement ever !! Jim Nova Scotia, Canada.
So right, much easier than tileing of yesterday year. Back then it was trench dug, and laid in by hand. 16" lengths of clay tile.
Oh that's what tiling is! Now I know!
Seeing the drone view helps me understand 🙋♂️🐈🐈
This Video like fine aged wine gets sweeter as , tiling progresses, loved info process, Jim/Brenda have a great day 🤔👌👀
When I was younger? I worked for a farmer that did tiling an that was a lot of hard work
When you were working in a wet area an water was running in the trench
Because we used a wheel trenches not a plow
Wow, that's some BIG equipment!!!! I got tickled when Jim said Bill may have to pull em' out if they get stuck!!! I know this is a long awaited day for you! Amazing to see how they install the drainage tile. I was wondering if it was getting close time for weaning Bree! See you next time!
I love watching lets " get it done men and machines" who really know what their doing .I found the best policy is to do what you did Jim . Shut up and get out of the way. I have seen where only the ground where the trenching was done, was cultivated and seeded. Does that make sense. Saves a lot of plowing .
Good idea, especially if Jim has fresh seed, there..
Very interesting to watch that process.
Wow just Wow............lov from south alabama.........have a great weekend guys..........And with all that is going on in our world...NO FEAR IS SAID 365 TIMES IN GOD'S WORD one for each day.......and if you need it more ,,HE IS MORE THAN ENOUGH.
Thank you Jim and Brenda. Next year you will get a super crop from that tiled field.❤❤.
Bill, I believe the term you're referring to when you say "lazering" is surveying. That tiling will undoubtedly help when you get a good soaking. Can't wait until you're able to cut hay off that field next year.
Great drone footage! It's going to be wonderful to see the haying in this field next year.
Bill, Ken, Baron, and Lady are going to have their work cut out plowing and or harrowing to get that field back into shape for pasture or crops. Duke and Earl will have to pitch in.
COOL Jim glad to see you have the finances to finally have this field tiled so all of it is available for crops.
In my county, Kent, in S.W. Ontario, just about every field is tiled, and has been for 50+ years. We are so flat, and on heavy clay, the water would just lay. It was said, at one time, that we had more tile in Kent county than in the entire province of Quebec.
That tiling plow is really something
Drain tile an excellent investment! Done quite a bit and never a regret!
the most horsepower on this channel ever
But it's not purty😅
Amazing! Thank you. I've learned something new. Looking forward to seeing what that little Bree is up to.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING WITH US LOVE YOU GUY'S
Nice going Jim and Brenda now your friend should b better God Bless you guys ❤
Pretty cool to see the tile put in
THAT WILL BE AWEOME DRAINAGE FOR THE FIELDS
The drone picture of the finished job might be a good picture in your 2024 calendar year. It was interesting to see how they complete the tiling job. Awesome.
Wow, what a big job. The drone footage was awesome. Always love the horses. ❤
wow, thats a intricate process. hope it works. that machine is a beast. Ive never seen anything like this project. thanks for sharing.
As Brenda said.. Wow! I looked up the hd21c fiat Allis, yes, 300fwhp. 1975 (the model 31 1976 425 horse and the model 41 hd 41 524 fwhp!
The tractor manufacturer Allis Chalmers made some great stuff. The common theme was operator know how, knowing how to apply that big power without breaking stuff. Pushing rocks turning with the blade not the drive clutches, stuff like that. That's what I mean when I say Jim is a smoooth operator, ability to operate smoothly and effectively within the boundaries of the machine. Some got it some don't. They say this 21c good for long consistent runs with good speed, so well matched for field tiling, plus one guy said half the price of a D7 Cat. Anyways...Cool Video, big Power!
Thank you
Wow! A 6 inch pipe! That's a lot of water! I can't wait to see how well it works.
Fascinating to see tiling.
That was such an interesting video Jim, I enjoy watching people work those big machines and their expertise at their jobs, and that there is a solution to problems like your wet field. But the horses are so much more interesting to watch than those machines!
Wow! that was fascinating, we live in a semi arid part of our country and I have never seen anything like that before. That is some pretty serious machinery they are using, I would hate to think of the cost of putting that stuff in, but it will be a God send to be able to use your whole paddock. looking forward to seeing more of it. Thank you.
Well worth the money to have that tiling done, especially when I seen the footage while you were on the sled - very swampy looking. It would be impossible to harvest anything out of that area, hopefully this will make it much more usable.
It’s amazing what they are doing. I just can’t believe it. I’m sure it will work for you and very happy you were able to get it done.
Absolutely Beautiful Area you live in!!!
😇
Awesome drone footage , and very impressive work on this project , thanks for sharing this video !!!!
I love watching both horses, and heavy equipment at work! Kind of opposite ends of the spectrum, but fun to watch, nonetheless! Much better tiling, than the old way, with clay tiles!
They do a lot of tiling in the Midwest. Helps out a lot!! Amazing machine, this should improve your land greatly.
Fascinating...I haven't seen this being done previously. It looks good from the air. I hope it's a huge success for you. I agree, it would have been nice if they'd tidied up a bit.
Feeling sorry for little Bree having to grow up so soon....I wish her well. When is her sister/brother due?
All the best.
Will be fun to see how much water runs in the hose and how long before it starts to slow down.
Well I’ve never seen anything like that before! Pretty interesting the way the drainage is done.
Interesting. Thanks for the upload.....
Simply awesome! This will be interesting to see the difference next spring.
Thanks for sharing that. its the same process I used in my Satellite business. burying "Sat" cable. with what they call a "Ditch Witch" cable spool sat on the witch and it cut it's own trench and laid the cable down same way as this tiling was put down. same process just bigger toys! thanks for sharing. ECF
I called my cows with a block of salt. Worked every time.
We are having 20 acres tile drained this week. A first for us. Wettest year ever recorded here in south west nova scotia. Half our hay crop is still rotting in the fields. The whole field we are doing looks like your "wet spot". We went with a 30' spacing. Currently running at about1 gallon every 2 seconds from the 6" line and the field is only 2/3 done. Huge costs but evidently the yield and season extension on both ends will eventually pay off. kevin from nova scotia
Interesting 🤔
Hope it works well for you!
That was amazing.
Very interesting, watching from Panama City Florida, USA. 🇺🇸🦅
Very interesting video, didn't know they did that in fields. The drone footage was very helpful to see where & how they laid the tile. Thank you for sharing that. And your fall colors are poppin' ...Beautiful .....God Bless
Sandi Brock’s channel has a lot of equally fascinating info on field tiling.
That is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen
Very cool! Thanks for sharing
Such an interesting video and thanks for the explanation of "tiling" - now I know what you're doing !!😮
That job must pay well!😊
man that is nuts. Really cool never seen that done before.
WOW,the drone really puts into perspective the massive undertaking at hand.Good being done before frost starts. Thanks for sharing 👍
Those are some nice straight lines, are we going to see Jim out there next spring survey equipment in hand laying out furrows 😉
Very interesting. Thanks for showing this process.
It will be wonderful having the tiling in. Amazing process
A lot of fields here in central Illinois have drainage piping, but I have never seen it being installed. Thanks for the lesson Jim.
That is very fascinating! Thanks for showing it! Never seen that before. I am really curious how it works and how much water comes out of the pipe. I guess in the end they will compress the soil again above the pipes.
Hi Chris, yes hate to see a horse step down into a soft spot or hole, good idea Jim has to bring his neighbor in to level it out and knock it down. It will take a couple cycles. Always good to see you. You did a good job on the corn!
WOW is right ! Very impressive. Excellent drone shots. Thank you for sharing.🐴🐴
Great video Jim now I know how they tile a field.
Who's gonna be the "Dad" of Lady's new baby....? It's gonna be interesting seeing you wean Bree....!!
Imagine, years ago when farmers dug those trenches by hand.
Great video, thanks for the update
That should help drain the field really well of the excess water big equipment so they don't have to dig a trench to install the pipe. Thanks for sharing this video. God bless and keep safe.
HELLO JIM AND BRENDA GREAT DAY FOR YOU, GREAT LOOKING COW'S, THIS IS WONDERFUL IT'S BETTER THEN DIGGING BY HAND THIS IS SOMETHING VERY INTERESTING YES VERY AMAZING, WHILE IT'S REALLY WET ,
Something new I have never seen before! Cool video
It’s amazing how they tile fields I’ve seen farmers out here do that and never got to watch them. Very Very interesting. Love ❤️ seeing Ken and Lady out. Your Chanel is my favourite. Love ❤️ from Ontario Canada 😂🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I saw field tiles laid once when I was in high school in the F.F.A. Chapter. We went up to Cornell University for an F.F.A. convention and there was a demonstration of laying tiles on one of the farms near the University there. A very interesting process, indeed.
Very cool process. Just amazing 😃
INCREDIBLY INTERESTING! THANKS!
excellent coverage with drone...
I didn’t know what to expect w the name but as I was watching, I realized it’s simply a French Drain MAMMOTH size.😄😁😁 it’ll work!!! I was amazed how the one we have at our house works when it rains. AWESOME!!!🎉🎉
Thanks Jim for showing this process. 🥳🥳
This is so cool! I never seen this done. 😊
