- In today's video, Laura finishes up some field work, Grant runs the fuel trailer empty, (we need to get the kinks worked out before planting season) and we help a friend in need! Would you ever buy a shipping container and transform it into something useful? Are we going to buy another old tractor?? Maybe a red one... comment what you think we should do!!!

Laura, Grant, please have your friend place a railroad tie under each end of the container. Airflow under it is a must. If not, the floor will rot out faster than he can fill it up. Keep up the excellent videos. As field work ramps up, stay focused and safe.
You can also put the container on concrete piers. That's pretty common for people using containers for homes and whatnot.
@@tetedur377 tbh it just have to get off the ground no matter how we do it :p im my country i have seen alot of stuff being used, all way from railroad to piers to concrete tiles stacked of 2 high, i have even seen wood being used, but guess that have a limited life spand cause thats sitting on the ground
Railroad ties or wooden utility poles (especially old ones) have such a high concentration of creosot with copper, arsenic and other nasties that they will outlive the container in any conditions.
Bonjour

@@user-ph2of2uq8q feel your pain. Maybe with AI the CC will be multi language senesitive...
If you can do your mascara in a tractor cab at 10 miles per hour, then can pronounce “root” any way you want! The way you pronounce it sounds really cool! If Grant needs a couple more shop projects buy the Farmalls! Excellent video Laura! Your commentary is great the way you explain everything! You’re creating a whole new group of farmers, known as “internet farmers”!! Keep up the great videos and keep teaching us what you and Grant do everyday on the farm!
Your father is my hero! Never saw pigs as clean as those you helped your father load onto the trailer trucks!! He does it all, pigs, cattle and crop farming with vigor. I see where you get your enthusiasm from. Also helps that you’re the princes and Grant is your Prince!!
Yes! Buy the 2 Farmalls…even though they’re not green, they are an iconic part of farming history
I am 80 years old and grew up on a farm. An M AND H were what we farmed 600 acres of bottom land with in northwest Missouri. I think you should buy them just to save them from the scrap yard. Very fond memories of time spent on those tractor seats.
There is an amusement park here in Pennsylvania, that has an M and an H on display (fully restored).
Red and green compliment each other. You need these!
Bring those old red classics home!
you are living the AMERICAN DREAM
You probably don't need 2 red tractors......but if you want 2 red tractors GET THEM there very cool. Thanks for sharing your day with us.
Your beautiful and don't need makeup
It's a great day when Laura posts!!
Antique tractors of yesteryear are soooo cool. Buy 'em, restore 'em, sell and trade at shows. Great fun! Shipping container buried in the ground on a gravel footing makes a great tornado shelter. In my childhood in NE Oklahoma, I spent a few evenings sitting on sawhorses in flooded shelters. Also a good place to ride out the zombie apocalypse.
PLANTING SEASON YES!!
Yeah, Laura, have your friend place something hefty underneath the container for air circulation. Might need four such objects equally spaced crosswise across the length. Those containers are heavy and might sag over time.
Bring the Farmalls home! Operating classics are much better than dead antiques! (They don't have to be work horses--they're retired! 😀👍👍 Great video.
Be carefull-collecting old tractors is VERY addicting !!! 20' containers anchored down make great tornado shelters !!
Yes, buy both of the tractors.
Yes get them both
You don't NEED the tractors but I think Grant WANTS the tractors. My vote... buy 'em
I just know someone passed on that lesson and it is so true.. Green n Red tractors and Broke down Combines along with the ones you share those things with..... well.. They come and go.. The Land tho.. NEVER let that go.. it reconnects you. Much love and Thanks so much for sharing
Regarding shipping containers, watch Ashville. They made an entire office section out of shipping containers just to be able to move the business when time comes. Also a shipping container is basically a trailer box made out of steel 😅 Great video btw!
Laura we love the Midwest in you. Pronunciation of "root" can vary slightly depending on the region in the USA. In some areas, particularly in the Midwest and the South, it may be pronounced with a slightly different vowel sound, like "rut" (/rʌt/), whereas in other regions, it may sound more like "root" (/ruːt/) with a longer "oo" sound.
Hello there 👋,how are you doing today!God bless you!!!❤️
Laura,
Buy just one of the two Red Tractors, the good one.
Unless the twofer price is great, in that case use the good parts from the bad tractor for repairs.
👍
Laura. An observation. In the first vlog from Utah, you and Rory are doing a photo shoot and they have you standing on a wood booster block. The when you go on the Trail Mater test drive you tell Rory you need a booster seat. Then in the last ten seconds of your last vlog from Utah, you are in the RZR and it looks like you can barely see out the door. Does Grant need to make you a booster seat for the RZR?
you guys just joyful live " and nice feeling weather"
Ships Laura! Like the one that took out the bridge in Baltimore. That’s a full size container, they come smaller. They do make forklifts big enough to lift them but usually they have a very big special crane.
Those machines are called “top picks”, very impressive to see on lift a 40-ft container on a stack that is 5- high.
Straddle cranes as well. Smaller and medium sized ports also use reach stackers. They are like telehandlers mixed with a crane kind of.
@@benrivenbark Right, like to see Laura and Grant drive a straddle carrier sometime, where you are about 2 stories up and sitting sideways to the directions of travel.
I spent my morning Pruning, and Fertilizing my raspberries, and blueberries! I love making jams and jellies, as well as Raspberry Liqueur!
Absolutely should have them on the farm too
Hello there 👋,how are you doing today!God bless you!!!❤️
Laura, that Shipping container is 2 TEU. ( Twenty foot Equivalent Unit) That one is 40 ft long. 20 foot ones are 1 TEU.
What the square rut of 4?😃😂 Love you Laura!
Yes! Old tractors are history. Bring em home.
You can never go wrong with old Farmalls. They will outlive your Big Green! I have those same 2 models, each nearly 70 years old.
Hey I heard that on the old Farmalls. We have 12s of internationals or case internationals on this place. The longest held purchases in them that my grandfather bought new. Can we use them all. Where in Western Pennsylvania 70 head 200 acre beef farm. We use our old gas job open station international tractors for things like raking rotary mowing moving wagons running augers and that kind of stuff and they're still handy. The oldest one is a 1941 bien that we still use for a little jobs.
Hope you have a skin routine that includes 50 spf for sun.
Gray days can get you almost as bad as a sunny day.
❤ our visits!
I grew up farming with a M and a H Farmall. They were great tractors and could be very useful again, especially if they're restored. You just won't have a cab and air conditioning or heat but farming like we did fifty to sixty years ago, will give you a real sense of nostalgia. Good luck.
Did the seat on your M have a spring or was it just a single piece of metal?
@@Snarkapotamus It's been years since I have been around both tractors, but I seem to remember a large coil spring and maybe a small shock absorber under the seat. We never had a cushion cover on the seats, so even with that little bit of suspension you felt everything. I spent many hours on those seats over eleven years, until I went in the Marines. Between that, riding dirt bikes, driving patrol vehicles and tractor trailers, my lower back is now telling me that maybe all those things together over time, might not have been the smartest thing I could've done for myself. If I could I would still go back and do it all again.
Yes, they had springs of some sort! Our Massey Harris had coil spring. Our old WC Allis had a solid curved spring! Our B Allis had no springs!!!
I love your detailed descriptions. You close ups of a tractor I''ll never drive and the kindness you show to your kitty!
Those Farmall tractors are like the ones I drove on the farm many years ago, and they were old then. LOL. But they are so cool!
Yes you should get them 2 red tractors to add to your collection I have couple even though I own johndeeres it's fun to run them and how easy to work on love your cat
Your GPS is amazingly accurate, in the 70s we had a pump on the sprayer that dropped blobs of foam every now and again of the end of the boom. You could line up on these for your next pass. It's great to see all the latest tech and you always explain things so well.
Cheers,
Poth.
Laura, as always something interesting to watch, and hear you talk. Shipping containers are big, that is why some build a home out of them. I would have put paving slabs underneath to keep it off the damp ground.
Love to you all from Mike ❤
Pepper's lovable. I love old tractors and trucks
That's a 40 foot container . the more common size is 20 foot . Great job unloading it very smooth .
Awesome video nice to see you back in the fields Laura. Always nice to see neighbors helping neighbors. Depending on the price Always nice to have some back up equipment around. ❤
Yeahhhhhh Laura.........We remember Young Laura doing her EYes in the tractor!!!!!!
Love a Lady in a tractor!!!!!
Love your take on the daily commute. Applying mascara while on auto pilot at work gave me a grim that will not stop. Stay safe! Soon there will be seeds in the ground.
Laura....
Let Grant be Grant.
I'm 60yrs old and addicted to stuff with wheels too and had people TRY to keep me from stuff with wheels..... BAD MOVE!!! Just say'in. Deepest respect for both of you guys!!!
You two are my favorite couple in the world!!! lots of love to both, John
Have you looked into corner sweeps for pivots to help catch more acres on the corners? They use them in Eastern Oregon with good results.
You can never have too many tractors! Or trucks! Or buggies! 🤣 The yellow kickstarter is my favorite! We should get sponsored by Mountain Dew! 😁
Best thing about old tractors is you fix them up, then you take them to tractor shows, parades and other things and meet cool people interested in the old machinery. It's awesome hearing stories from the older generations when they reminisce about using them to farm in the past. You really get a sense of how far farming has come since those tractors were working machines.
Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland ❤ Wünsche eine störungsfreie Bestellung der Felder !!😀
Thanks for the video. The red ones would add some class to your farm (I noticed the smile on your face at the "Red Power Roundup" in Grand Island last summer); but your green ones are something I would be proud to own. I started farming the the red ones - IH 1456 & IH 1066-; and considered them the "hot rods" of tractors. Turned the injection pumps way up, put on chrome, straight pipes, and washed & waxed them often. However, I did switch to John Deere with two 4955's FWA's in the early 1990's. Ran Deeres ever since. Always interested in everything you and Grant (also Gage) do on your farm.
What an interesting comment you made about what happened in a past year at “this” spot. What continuity, what connection to the past and your ancestors who farmed. The history you expressed is beyond description, it is a connection to the land. My ancestors, and my wife’s ancestors were farmers, that connection resonates through the generations. And, oh, I enjoy your videos.
Get the two red tractors. They're so worth it
Old red ones are way better that newer green ones. Thanks for the video.
Hey Laura the way you pronounce root is just the cornhusker way, just like I pronounce creek as crick LOL
Shipping containers, not necessarily "so much bigger than you'd think". They're nearly all a standard width and height, but come in 10', 20', 30', 40' and 48' long, basically to fit ships (like the one that hit the bridge in Port of Baltimore last month), semi-trailers for road haulage and wagons for rail work.
As others you want to prop the ends on some sort of blocks to keep the floor dry.
Double o can sound like /o͝o/ as in cook, wood, soot, foot, hook, shook, took, brook, good, crook, stood OR root. Maybe it's a German thing. The Ö (o "umlaut") has the short o sound. I have German heritage and have always pronounced root as "rʊt", just like you do! There's really no wrong way to say it. There's a personal preference that influences every speaker.
Great job Laura Grant and Gage
I love these eps where Laura takes us along and talks to us. So nice seeing her beautiful face get so much screen time!💛
Yes Grant needs to get those red tractors if he can get them at a good price. We had an M and that was my favorite tractor because it was Mark's tractor.
Awesome video, keep up the good work and stay safe.
Bought two of them for instant storage there was nothing better for the price, and yes put RR ties underneath and one at the door for a step.
Build the fleet!
I remember reading that Farmall tractors were built for a specific purpose by International Harvester. If you want to buy, refurbish and resell just for fun, go for it. Stick with the green machine for your farming operation.
Nobody around for miles. That's my kind of place.
Thanks for the video Laura
Learning all the farming equipment would be a fun endeavor I believe ! Love your videos ! Keep up the good work !
Great video...stay safe
Like the video Laura and Like someone said put somme Rail road Tie under container .need air under it cause it will rust under .
You need at least one Farmall.
Great to see you guys!! Thanks for sharing your time and your life with us!! Love the tractor!!)
Laura the largest of the ocean going container ships can carry up to 24,000 of those containers like you just unloaded. Yes 24,000.
I really love your videos they make me happy when I watch them it is very cool seeing the farm. Keep up the great work
The sun is definitely out. I see daylight.
Yup the amount of work you’ll do with someone little tractor like that you’ll surprise yourself
Thanks for sharing 😁.
Rut slicing must be a Nebraska thing...everywhere else, it's root slicing. Hehe. 😂❤
That fuel trailer is such a time saver and convenience
red is the compliment to green, especially old red!
Laura, Why don't you plant Green or Red Peppers in the dry corners? They thrive in Hot dry dirt. God Bless
Okra lives hot dry weather and dirt the hotter the better
Grant "needs" these tractors to round up his growing collection of snowmobiles, motorcycles, side-by-sides, trucks, and other toys!
YES!!, need those tractors
Sea continuer come in 20ft 40ft and 60ft . Over here in Australia 🇦🇺 they used them as swimming 🏊♂️ pools😂❤❤
Makes my heart so happy to see how excited you are to farm ! ❤👍
What I see as so cool is the barn built cherry picker from hell going neck n neck with a modern telehandler and holding its own. Bad idea to beef it up, it has its purpose, works well and mods will lead to overloading n failure. The Farmall's? Depending on the shape of your JD I would say have many that are good enough or one cherry tractor.
I just watched a Matt Caricker video where he went through a car museum and they had both of those same tractors, but totally rebuilt. Beautiful! Check it out. Not on his Demo Ranch videos, but the other one where he is updating the new Ranch.
I have been subscribed and watching your videos for several years and enjoy the content and presentation. I just started watching your dad’s videos. I respect how much you have learned about farming from him. It would be nice if he picked up some tips from you on presentation and content. I’ll still watch both in the future.
My uncle had the exact same farmall tractors when I was a kid. Had a blast driving them
I would buy them and find old implements for them!!!!
The unloading went much better than expected. Great job 😊. Yes to the tractors.
I can remember sitting on my Daddy's knee as he disked the garden spot with his Farmall H. That was around 50 years ago.....
Midwest says Ruf and Northeast says ROOF!!!!!!!
So you saying Rut slicer is Normal for your Location but that makes us all AWESOME!!!!!!!
Yep. It’s called colloquial language. No one should be making fun of you, Laura. Everyone uses colloquial language. Just remember our friends in Hurricane, Utah.
I think the Farmalls would fit right in with what you two have in mind with the small John Deere and the small implements.
I wonder if Laura crosses the crick or the creek? 😀 As others have said it's all colloquial...one of those tomato, tomahto things. 😉
I am not making fun! You should call roots and roofs exactly what you want to, but being from the northeast I'm curious to know how you say moon. 😉😉
The pivot tires make big roots :p
Thanks L&G
It Was Fun And Exciting To See A Video Post!! What A Breath Of Fresh Air You Two Are!!
Keep Smiling On!!
😅👍👊❤️
I've missed the cat! Good to see it again! 🐈🐱🐈⬛
I am always impressed by how smoothly you explain things to all of us….you speak clearly, annunciate every word, remain calm & happy always…you are a sweet personality and a pleasure to watch…so much talent, positive attitude, respect for everyone, great work ethic, and a good heart ❤
Really great channel. Like seeing the newest and greatest farm equipment. Way different from the old days.
Can't blame Pepper for wanting to spend time with you!
Oh to be young and ambitious again, keep up the good work and enjoy life while you can
I live right at the narrow straight (Øresund) between Denmark and Sweden and now and again those large container ships go through here. They are MASSIVE!
Grandpa's tractor crane is genius idea:)
Here in South Texas the corn is a foot high, grain sorghum is looking good. The cotton will be squaring in two weeks and we have good moisture but rain is always welcome in dry land farming. Have a great day!
Terrific video. Another personal video with you speaking directly to me!!! These videos are your best. (Sorry Grant but the facts are the facts!) Laura, you are a blessing to all. May you enjoy many years of recording and sharing in the best of health and happiness.
Get some blocking under the container for airflow. Moisture in the ground will rust the floor out.
