What does this mean? This country was built on ingenuity and a "can do" American spirit. This channel is my attempt to share my curiosity and pursuit of ability. I believe the confidence that comes with achievement can take you to amazing places. Follow along. My goal is always to "know enough to be dangerous". Hopefully you will be inspired to "do" with what you see.
Believe it or not I'm still using this setup exactly as I showed in this video. Its super efficient. I plan on building an updated version of it before next season. If I get to it I'll make another video.
@bischoff6981 I'm in the process of looking for a stand with the metal seat to get it done. Great job bro. Really. Awesome idea. I'd patent it if I were you
I would have done the same thing by raising the blocking up above the brackets. Even though the trim would have covered the gaps u would have always known and it probably would have bothered u in the future. It looks so much better after u raised the blocking up.
You will only need the lift for stones or dirt mounds other big objects. That kind of cool it lifts itself. I grew up on an old number 5 John deere mower i had to operate the lift with my foot with linkage from mower to tractor. It was a real challenge for a young boy of 7 and the tractor had hand clutch. Real challenge when approaching a rock and having to lift the bar with my foot on the left side hand. Clutch was on right side of tractor. Then to make things more challenging we had a rope running from dump rake to tractor and had to trip the rack at every tripping point when it was full to create a line for the baler or farmhand bucket we used to push it all in bucker piles then put in stacks around the field.
Good video., looks nice👍. Couldn't you make skidshoes or skidplates under the sickle bar so it not cutting right down to the dirt/ right on the ground in general?
I have mowed thousands of acres in my lift time with sickle mower it's all we had and used to put up Prarie hay and alfalfa when I was growing up. We .mowed raked in one operation then used a farmland loader with a bucker on it to push into small pile then put into large stacks. Put up many thousands of acres that way in my life time.
I am in the same situation.. I ended uncovering weeping tiles from the surrounding farm that eneded on my property.. looks like you have a farm there surrounding you.. are you sure it's not tiled though your place?
The plunger stroke is 60 a minute, it was going too slow in that vid, Dad bought a hay liner 68 in 1964 used it for 20 seasons, averaged about 20,000 bales a year, it was a very reliable baler better than the NH 276 that replaced it.
Amazing! Gorgeous! Please make a video explaining how you did the railing. Can not wait to try it myself. I was searching for that option for posts and you explained it so well. Thank You!
@@bischoff6981 Exactly! Thank You! Will be waiting and looking forward to. I need to put one post or two posts and secure it under the stairs in split level house.
Thank You! I love cedar. Looks beautiful! Could you please make a video about your railing that you mentioned in this video; what did you use and describe the process. It looks good.
Ended up having to go to the local equipment store for those. Where I live, that's Steinke Tractor. You can also probably get them from online places like Steiner Tractor. None of the farm supply stores carried them.
Seth I got a question. I’m wrapping my Columns which are currently 4”x 6” posts so basically gonna have a rectangle. I’m gonna stucco the posts so is osb ok to use as paneling?
Sorry for the delayed response. I need to look at my comments more often. OSB is probably fine. If it was me, I probably would use a higher grade plywood. I'm probably a bit too cautious but OSB likes to soak up too much water for my taste. Hope the project works out!
Strike the back of the tooth with a hammer. Have the bar against something solid like an anvil. This will shear the rivet in the center. They will come out of the bar super easy with a punch after that. It took me less than 8 minutes to take the teeth off this way.
I was unable to find a follow up video. I would like to know is this system worked. I am in a small townhouse community and we are experiencing similar issues in my building.
It has worked well. I probably went a bit overkill. One exterior culvert/pump was enough. It handles the water perfectly. The internal house sump pump only goes on when its extremely wet out. I do have a pump for the 2nd exterior. I have all the piping run but I don't have the pump connected. When I finish this in the spring, I'll try to remember to do a wrap up video to show how it all turned out. If you have specific questions you want me to answer in that, let me know and I'll try to answer them.
Thx for the video Seth, I saw something you must address & that is to tighten alot the very large feeder chain as it is extremely loose. Do yourself a huge favor & check your manual on how to do it proper.
The John Deere number 5 didn't have quick disconnect the splined end on the mower slipped on to tractor shaft. There was a notch machined all the way around the tractor shaft and the end on the mower slide on to a point where a bolt was in an off set hole it would keep the shaft from sliding off and it bolted down onto the tractor shaft with a tight fit.
I have this same mower. Could you make a video of the ball on the bar and where it clamps. The clamp on mine is popping off the ball and I think there is some sort of cinch part I am missing. Your video is the closest I have to figuring it out.
Use a larger tank ( 100 cf )along with an adjustable regulator to supply a consistent pressure for your air rifle. A hand pumps are best to top off the air rifles and pistols.
That woulda been nice! Obviously tried that first. It was a challenge to press the out as it is. I'm sure that would work if I had to remove any of the new rivets now but it was much more challenging as old as those rivets were.
Nice channel. Looking forward to seeing more from you. Go and take a look at Promosm!!! Ever since I started using it on my main channel my videos are ranking much better!!!
