Definitely shining this week, 100 today! We like to run the very latest in cutting edge agricultural equipment 😁, although some A/C would have been nice…. Thanks Pines. You guys making hay this week?
Now imagine a small hole up high on the side of your barn with a hay alevater sending bales up into a hot hay mowl. Unloading by hand one at a time. Yep, that is how we did it in the 1960's.
@@scrambler69-xk3kv I don’t have to imagine it, I have a video of us doing just that 😁 little further back in the videos. Thumbnail of a B Deere running the elevator. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the update Dave. You guys must be getting a little more rain then us. Wish we could be doing hay too. Still working at planting the last of the corn here. Too much work and not enough bodies to get it done lol!
@@crazydave4455 only advantage is the breeze, if there is one. We have over a week 90-100.. way too early for that! Now dropping to the 60s ... Hard on the body.. UHG Stay hydrated and healthy!!
During the late 60s we had a similar bale collector on test for a local manufacturer .They could never overcome the problem with leaving the heaps in tidy stacks , many of the stacks fell over after they left the collector .They never went into production .We went for a much cheaper `flat eight` system using trailers that would pick up stacks of 50 bales at a time ,they worked well .
Your 1750 has a pretty "cool" AC system, my cousin has a MM tractor with the same kind of canopy, my old cattle Pasture is now a field too, our landrenters Broke that piece of land up 10 years ago 🚜
That New Holland haystacker sure would make life a whole lot easier didn't have that when I was a kid growing up! I got to say I do miss driving the Oliver tractors 770 and super 77 growing up on the farm. I do have a question for you the gasoline Oliver tractors back in the day when they were being built the gas at the time had a lot of lead in it is today gas with low lead levels okay to run in them? Thanks Michael
We haven’t had issues and don’t put any lead additive in. Think the main issue with the old engines was valve seat recession, before hardened valve seats. I suppose grandpa could have rebuilt the heads back then, but I never hear about it as an issue with others either.
Hi, just ran across your channel. I spied a very cool vitrious clay block silo in the background. Do you have a video or information on it? I love those things and there are damned few left. Thank you, best regards from Indiana.
Hi Bill, the silo was built by my grandpa, great grandpa and some friends in the 30’s. It was later added onto for more capacity. Seasonally filled with corn silage when we milked cows. I have some old pictures of it being built, I plan on doing a video on the dairy barn and will include the old (and new) silo pictures in that one. I’ll see if dad knows where the tile was sourced.
@@crazydave4455 Hello, thanks for the reply. That thing is beautiful. I sure hate to see the development pressure you're experiencing there. I have the same problem here. The sunsets from my house used to contain a couple of barns and a windmill now consist of an unbelievably huge Amazon warehouse.
@@farmerbill6855 unfortunately the end is near, high density housing all around and the problems that go with it. (Trespassing, people’s trash, traffic etc.) I plan on making a series of videos telling stories, documenting the old buildings and relics as we clean up. Thanks for stopping by 👋, I’ll be posting some then and now history pretty soon.
@@ronphillips1437 it’s dry and dusty here now, rain would be nice when we are done 😁 it’s hot, but not the bag dripping humidity we usually get. Just keep drinking water.
As a kid from the early 70's I Loved our 'ol 77D.. W/F..
Man, dig the dashboard on that Oliver. Real simulated wood grain! Love those.
The finest in 70’s styling !
That sure takes me back to my youth!
Making hay while the sun shines. The Olivers sound good.

@@crazydave4455 we're almost done with alfalfa, we had a little rain cloud come through today. It sure is a hot 🥵 one.
@@pinesedgefarm1155 yes it is. You chop most of yours? (if I remember right)
Great action New Holland has sure made some interesting hay equipment.
The stackliner has served us well, that old bale wagon I believe is in its 48th hay season.

You need an Oliver baler love them balers surprised you don't got one
The JD has been good, plus there are dealers around that still stock parts. The Oliver tractor club has a roto flow, but I’ve never baled with one.
Tractor and hay both look good
Thanks Andy

We got rain just in time to bring the hay around. These days we don’t run much land, so it gets done faster. Good luck! Hope you get caught up!
Good to see you all getting it done! And you are welcome for the heat!! We are supposed to be in the 60s for a week or so now...
That will be nice, think we have about 5 days of 90s before it breaks. Being out all day on open station tractors, pretty sure I’m down a pants size 😂

@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin under the umbrella with a breeze isn’t bad, lots of liquid.
Sure wish we had stack wagons when I was growing up
That thing has been in service on this farm since 1973. (before my time) Definitely a huge benefit on hot days like this.

As long as you put in the tie tier and have even bales, they stack good

Love that silo
I’ll be posting pictures of it being built, when I make my barn video.
The smoothest pto engagement of any tractor until they went to hydraulic assist
You guys sure put up some really nice hay there!👌
Thanks Shane. A lot of that grass goes to the horse folk.
@@crazydave4455 making the big bucks!!
Okay, I’m satisfied now, lol!
Thanks Russ! I wouldn’t have wanted to handle all those in the heat. Those guys can keep the kicker balers and hay racks!

It's haying season full swing
Yep, round bales today and near 100 degrees. Great fun 😁
@@crazydave4455 been near a hundred the last few days here doing hay but now we have some cooler weather and possibly rain coming
@@ronphillips1437 it’s dry and dusty here now, rain would be nice when we are done 😁 it’s hot, but not the bag dripping humidity we usually get. Just keep drinking water.
@@crazydave4455 yep drank lots of it the last few days
Everyone is going on hay
First crop time for sure. 👍
Watching him rake I was thinking you guys need an umbrella. And then look what shows up with the baler.
Got a few around yet, he was just excited to try that new tractor out 😂
What model is the Haybine?
Think it’s a 492
I don’t know what you Cut that with But it did a poor job
New Holland haybine, it’s in the video.
Buen día necesito repuesto para el mío
For what?
