after all these years watching your videos. I finally get to hit the like button first. Love your videos

Getting a bull calf will be nice in the future, when I was a kid my Dad would get the bulls as calves and then I worked my magic to tame them and they would be giant baby’s ❤

@fernandoontiveros2676 10 часов назад

Great job. Keep up on the hard work it will pay off.

@jimtann904 9 часов назад

Just a thought Evan maybe after welding to add extra strength wrap some flat steel over the end and attach it to the flat area be hind the welded eye -cheers from Australia

You got Ellie's attention when you mentioned a young bull! 😂 Great video, Evan! Take care and be safe.

Tractors are looking good, well made and very reliable !

@reginaghee3768 9 часов назад

Very neat looking job you did on that opening. It is so relaxing and satisfying watching you make and redo projects. Aside from that you truly have the most pleasant demeanor out of the ones I watch on here.....altho Tyler is not too far behind you. Always a pleasure, Evan. Your style is quite likable.

@danriceman7533 9 часов назад

I really enjoy you showing how you are scaling up slowly. I think too many others either go too fast without infrastructure or just stay at a small hobby level.

@SIB1963 9 часов назад

It's arm day at Country View Acres! Forearm workouts and pullups are the order of the day.

@AshleyJohns-k3b 9 часов назад

Great video as always. Don’t throw out that barn siding either fix it to the new gate in the opening to reduce snow etc getting in or store it by fixing it up high on the inside of the barn (away from animals) so you have spare sheets to repair with after you’ve driven the tractor into the barn or a cow kicks the siding out! Ask me how I know! 😂

@greghamann2099 9 часов назад

I am a little surprised you are not putting a door there to keep out the cold wind, snow and rain.

@LUSCIOUSPETALS 10 часов назад

Congratulations! 🎉 on the new barn opening. *Please remember safety 1st & wear your gloves when messing with the sharp metal & your safety glasses.

@kenfrazier616 9 часов назад

boss the new opening for the cows in the alley, maybe take the sheeting you removed and make a rolling door to close during the snow season to control the draft,

@winterhorse290 9 часов назад

We started with 3 heifers and one bull calf. When the herd got to 14, we sold off 9 of them. We got out of the cattle business with 19 cows and three bulls. It will surprise you have fast a herd will grow!

@leahmollytheblindcatnordee3586 9 часов назад

Was happy to see you put on the gloves. It was hard for me to tell how sharp the metal would have been, but evidently it wasn't. I am also curious about the door opening. This winter could be better than last year or worse. Anyway, good video. Thanks

@mrclaus859 10 часов назад

Thanks for posting Evan

I just used that same Dewalt sawzall to hack up a pile of big branches this morning. Check out Diablo's 9" pruning blade, as far as wood blades go it cant be beat!

@brucerazor5202 10 часов назад

Your place looks great, from Washington state

@johnsandell4501 9 часов назад

Nice animal plan👍👍👍

@rongossett3326 9 часов назад

Hey Evan, flip the blade of your skilsaw (install it the wrong way) and cut that sheet metal the easy way. You're welcome.

@roycobb7371 9 часов назад

Tin Snips yes - saw the same on another homestead site.

@TONLAWSON 9 часов назад

When cutting barn tin take a circular saw use old paneling blade install it backwards and take your time cutting but it works

@whodathunkithuh1001 9 часов назад

The shear head is adjustable so you don't have to use it backwards all the time. Just loosen the screws and swivel the head around.

@robertmouradian9760 9 часов назад

Use the correct tool for easier board /nail removal: a demolition pry bar :)

@jerrybudnik8698 9 часов назад

Evan, did you consider keeping the old steel siding for a sliding door for your new opening? You will need to close up the openings for the winter

@josephmccandlish2458 10 часов назад

That head looks upside on that cutter.

@michigantler5046 9 часов назад

good job e

@woodintheblood4104 9 часов назад

To cut that metal I would use a circular saw with a carbide tipped blade. It will cut fast and smooth and won't hurt the blade at all. Just a thought.

@skipskehan6097 9 часов назад

Diablo makes a great one. It will cut a few sheets at a time. Again, just a thought.

@jonathanmcelravy8608 9 часов назад

If and when the auger's pin boss fails again, replace it with a ball joint like is on your other top links. They are available in weld on versions. But, what do I know

@williamwhite882 9 часов назад

Hammer worked but that's why they invented crowbars. Good place for a rolling barn door! A steel collar welded around that new weld might have given it more strength??

@JohnHarkonen 9 часов назад

Use the aluminium panels on the fire wood shelter roof.

@jefflary5457 10 часов назад

What's up with the Small town 442 in the titles lately ? JeffinMaine

@richardschenhiet 10 часов назад

Hand grinder would cut faster lol, long as the sparks didn't light the barn on fire like Mrs OLeary..😅

@johnnester2340 10 часов назад

Angle grinder to cut the sheet metal

@davidwest7221 9 часов назад

I would think about putting a sliding barn door up.

@adrianhewitt7908 9 часов назад

I like it 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

@dchunt1775 9 часов назад

thought.. why not use the sheet metal and build a sliding barn door, so you can actually shut the barn area up in winter to avoid the wind tunnel effect?

@aubreysmith66 9 часов назад

Sawzall with a Demo Blade

@tonycosta3302 9 часов назад

Shouldn’t the flashing across the top of the opening go behind the siding? Having it in front will capture winter and divert it into the barn.

@jamesirwin1409 9 часов назад

I used to think ol' evan had bad luck the way things were always breaking or malfunction on him But after witnessing him cut all that tin w/ no gloves & not a scrarch on him........ well, he has better luck than i do,,,,,,,,,,,,LOL

@docracer7519 9 часов назад

Hi Evan. I'm just curious - you don't want some sort of door to cover up all or most of that new opening, to make the animals more comfortable if they are inside and for when the weather gets cold/snow and/or big winds blow?

@bamabilly7816 9 часов назад

if ya got a old fine tooth skill saw blade turn backwards on saw to cut that sheet metel

What about temperature inside barn during winter?

@johndebrular979 9 часов назад

A Zip wheel would have been safer & quicker.

@geraldpettigrew820 10 часов назад

Why don;';t you use a mini grinder with a cutting disc on it

@toddcaskey9984 9 часов назад

Yeah they only work on flat surfaces , get a nibbler from harbor freight

@rodneybalog4605 9 часов назад

I wouldn't throw that tin you cut out from door you can use it possibly for another project

WEAR GLOVES !!!!

@alaninohio2 10 часов назад

Come on Evan, GLOVES are needed working with sharp metal, please! Think SAFETY ahead of time on all the tasks that you are preparing to perform! Eye, hand, face, head, foot, respiratory and other PPE is required on many tasks! I love watching how you can do so many various things, but as a Safety and Health guy I may need to stop watching, so you don't make me insane from your unsafe acts. Put those outlet covers and panel enclosures on in the workshop too. I hope you worked much safer in your previous job or I would have fired you!
