    My dad did that once. New MacDon 50' flex draper. There is a row of wheels underneath. It f'd that head up good. I got the call on the radio. I unload on the fly until I'm empty enough that I can finish the opening pass. Fold my auger in... leaving the un-loader running. Cart took off in front of me. It's the opening pass so there was nothing behind me. Just me in a wheat field sending everything right over the side. I was hot. Sent everybody home. I came damn close to lighting a match that day.

    Every year, I say the same thing. That's incredible looking wheat! I'm afraid the crain on my service truck wouldn't be heavy enough for what you need. It's only 4,000 pounds. But once you have one ,you'll wonder how you did without it.

    Enjoy your videos more than any other farming channel! All breakdowns suck, self inflected ones seem to bite just a little bit harder. Do you grow the wheat for the straw and a cash crop or do you also use the grain in your feed ration? I'm guessing you use the straw for bedding somewhere (really haven't seen it), but maybe not. Or do I have it totally wrong?

    Hi from oz andy. An old engineer years ago told me NEVER weld equal gussets/brackets together. Stagger them. Together you create a new weak spot where it will break next time. By staggering you spread the weakness of the weld over a larger area thereby having a higher minimum strength.
