hey Trevor. I live around your area and have seen your farm equipment parked in a field when I drove by. I don't know if you have heard or been around the lewiston clarkston area in idaho, but that is where I am from. me and my friend have a little farm and ranch in the area and I love watching your videos. But we do run green equipment so it is interesting to see how the red ones work.
Looks like Jamie is the lead dog most of the time. As they say, if you aint the lead dog the scenery never changes. I'd like to see Trevor, Jamie and the buddies with the latest CIH 9250s or JD X1100 with 60 foot Honeybee or even 50 foot double hinged heads mowing them thar wheat dunes.
At least if hes in front of me there’s something to see other than my header. Lol. The next wave of headers are all going towards 45 footers. Some triple reels and triple flex. Others are 45 and the same flex as now. Its annoying to leave skips and be digging on both sides while still flexing. Theres places we seed that we cant cut because the heads are so wide. In places tho…the big ones work
Hi Trevor, your squeak sound is mostly in the front elevator as the slats are on bare metal if goes away once in the crop, possible they do require more tension due natural wearing cycle, and i had notice Jamie's front the table auger looks so shiny as they do feed so clean while cutting. Sounds like you've good boss as your able operate the combine while on your camera at times and we grateful for your brilliant videos too. Your weather conditions there looks so gentle mild temps, doesn't stay warm long compared to the dry dusty outback where i live, Cheers Bill.
Trevor, thanks for another impressive video. It would be more productive if you could dump on the go on some of those slopes. The grain cones out too much as it drops down in an increasing distance from some of the manufacturers spouts. The spouts need a splitter plate inside of them to take the swirl out of the grain when it comes off the end of the unload auger making for a narrower flow of grain into the bank-out buggy.
My auger is mnt long enough to do it well and safely. The other guys just dont. In places we could though for sure. Look at the auger on the 8240 tomorrow. The thing is 7 feet longer than mine. And it can point out and in.
In order to bring the spout closer to the bank-out, how about an auger pipe with a hinge about 10 feet from the end that would lower and the auger screw with a 'U' (Universal) joint to follow the pipe. We dont want anything too complicated to drive the price of the thing into the clouds for the farmer.@@TrevorStruthers
If you have some time in the off-season, would like to see a close up look of one of the hillside machines. Curious on how everything moves and how it's all mounted compared to a standard combine.
I kinda did on this other video here. But ill do a good one after. Ty fir the idea! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-msxkjq-ctWY.htmlsi=EMsnlvUejNkYlZSj
Would you gents mind if we stopped by to visit Wednesday? I have a friend out from Tenn. and would like ro show him what you do . I will need an address and driving instructions. Thxs Carl
Oh you! Good, I found out that the grain bucket line is on the breaks of the Snake near pomeroy. So somewhere between pomeroy and the snake river. I don't know much more than that. We may be down tomorrow from the rain we got today and possibly tonight. We got a bit of canola were cutting near HWY 12 and Lower Hogeye.
goo.gl/maps/oH7TAab1qmvnn7HM9 there is the tramlines address on google maps. its called "The Mayview Tramway" I am not sure how much is left as i have never been there. I cant find your other comment but i assume that you were the one wanting to go to the tramway. i am out sick for the day and am editing videos. We had some rain, so i allowed myself to be sick.
