*CLAP* Lookit that.. its like he has done this a time or two. ;) I do appreciate smart engineering as well.. that side offset of the engine.. someone knew what it was meant to do and for whom too. Why.. you could even throw up some mirrors to help you see distinctly without that neck strain. One of those "instore" ones to help see around corners and such. Well done on the equipment search and work!! Your works show their truth in your attentions Sir. All my love and respect, and thank you both for your work for sharing with us. Nice music work too.
Very interesting stuff! I don't have the 10 acres to plant in, but I do have quite a few 4x8 raised beds and blueberries, and cherries and blackberries. But it something I have not had the opportunity to see the actual usage of the plows. Really neat!
Just live watching that Farmall. Such good care taken in caring for such an old piece of farm equipment. That tractor is older than me by a year. So enjoy this. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and the journey of this beautiful tractor.
The red tractor videos are the best ! I have just purchased Danny’s sweet potato manual and English pea manual, Danny is the best teacher. Keep up with the excellent videos.
Watching you work on and ride your Farmall tractor reminds me of my Dad, he also had a Farmall tractor. Good memories. Thank you for sharing with us. The old stuff worked very well (and was made to last) and made many farmers able to do a lot more much easier. And didn't cost an arm and a leg, so to speak. Normal everyday people could afford one, not like the expensive machines of today.
From one farmer to another, good job Danny! Love the little tractor, wouldn't work on our 2,500 acrea farm, but it sure is a handy little tractor! Blessings
I really like those sweeps, I will be looking for some for my farmall model A. Burch store tractor in Central NC has all you would need planter and fertilizer spreader. His name is Brandon, very knowledgeable on all farmalls
Wow! I remember those old International Harvestors. Especially that Cub you've got. I grew up on a Ford 50...(it was probably 20 years old when I used one--haha). That Ford 50 was painted battleship gray...unlike your red International.
I like the way you explain things. I too have a Cub, it's a 130 and I love it. This is a must have for a truck patch farmer. I just bought a set of Lay Off Sweeps and I'm not sure if the leading edge should be angled outward's, or should they be parallel to each other. Anyway the Cub's are a must have because weeding is the worst part of gardening and the Cub makes it fun. Thank you
I grew red rippers last year...You can't kill those things! 😁😂 I harvested, and those things self sowed for the next round. I had a whole other harvest that I never planted...GOOOOD pea! I have a lot saved, now..The next time I plant, it will be in their own bed, because the came back under a whole other crop..lol
Stringfellow in shipman used to hove a whole bunch of sweeps coulters and points out one time and. Got some parts for my cole planters from them and those are hard to find too
Tractor does great blessing to have flat land were we live chickens leg on one side 2 inches longer were they have walked on side of hill all there life
The farmer I work for has an old tractor similar to that, but it's mostly white and red and not in the best shape. His front wheels are closer to the center and not far out. He said he usees it for cultivating corn and has a fertilizer and seeder to plant 4 rows at a time. After the corn gets so tall, he fertilizes and hills his corn with an on tractor fertilizer funnel. I've never seen him use it, but I know he used it this year on the corn. I think it's an international harvester, but I'm not certain. I don't have a tractor, but I do have a walk-behind tiller and my good friend Manuel Labor by way of various hoes, a rake, and leather gloves. 😂
@@DeepSouthHomestead They might be able to locate for you if you want to call. Also there is a large yard in Whiteville, NC. Barnes Auction and Parts.Hope this helps. Beautiful Cub!
I sent you a email with the phone number to a few places that you might find what you need for your cub. Love the buzzard wings you have set up on your front cultivators. I have the phone number to a guy in North Carolina who had a rear mounted planter for sale for a cub. They are much easier to hook up than the belly mounted planter and work better.
Since you went to the trouble of painting the cultivators why didn't you paint them the correct IH Blue? Or did the previous owner paint them? It looks like the cuffs you got were painted. You can just cut a wing off a sweep to make the half sweeps. Join Farmall cub forum. There guys there that have them to sell them. You can buy the fertilizer distributor from Agrisupply or eBay or wherever they make aftermarket ones. They work and you won't ruin another classic part with fertilizer.
@@DeepSouthHomestead I didn't have a problem at all with it. Seemed to work fine. The adjustment for how much is crude and lacks the notches of the original. Having never used an original I can't compare it to that. I will say it worded fine and I had no issues putting down fertilizer with it.
