Making hay while the sun tries to shine! Rick's haybine got a snaggletooth too! Great to see more traditional farm equipment like the rake wheels - they do such a neat job! Good to see Senior's about keeping an eye on you two rascals! A massive haul of hay you got this time - well done guys top job! Take care from the Cambridgeshire fens of the UK!
Really enjoyed the gospel music in the background at the start of the video. Good to see hard working people pay respect to who makes all this possible.
Hello Squatch253; You always seem to have great videos, either when working on something to just walking around a hay field. The music was really good too. I could just listen to it all day. Glad to see Senior out and around, say Hi for me. I think you must have edited Rick's part. No profanity. Thank you.
Looks like Bork needs to show some love to his knives and guards. Normally you get a super crisp cut when things are right but that looks pretty chewey.
That was a awesome overview of the field. Rick sure is a busy man and he is not wasting time on small talk. I do like the Gehl 1470 baler that seems to do it's job well.
And a lovely bonus harvest of rocks too by the look of it. Some of them are a little small but you can bet their mommas are just under the surface waiting for you!
Good to see you again. Some of us were going through Squatch withdrawal symptoms because we haven't seen any more 5j1113 videos this week. I remember how you helped keep us sane in the early days of the COVID19 pandemic by putting out a lot of videos on that D2. Now I'm addicted and 1 week is too long to wait for the next dose of Cat restoration. After you get finished with 5j1113 I hope you will finish the prototype Minneapolis Moline. That's the project that brought me to your channel.
Great video 👍 an a big 👏👏👏to Rick for all his work💪 drove a Kubota tractor 100+horsepower an it was a really able reliable and willing performer 👌 great crop of hay there. 👌
Typical farm Life every single thing that broke twisted tour got a hole in its part of it missing typical farm Life you got to love it keep up the good work I'm proud of you
Back when I lived in Kingsly Michigan I lived across from a 40 acre hay field. One year a farm hand he hired every year during harvest season got sick and ended up in the hospital so living in a small farm town Kingsly 18 miles south of Traverse City Michigan. Having grown up in the first small farm town north of Flint Michigan I took a day off my regular job and helped out. After we were done that final day (rectanglure bails) he had this 12 wide machine he draged behind his smallest tractor that picked up small to medium rocks and other debris into a hopper When he'd knew he'd hit a larger rock he'd pull a handle connected to a cable that went back to a thing that would leave a spot of orange dust by where he'd felt a bump signifing he hit a large rock or other object so he'd go back later with a trailer behind the tractor and pick them up. The trailer itself has a small crane on it he could use to pick up large rocks instead of risking hurting his back. He was 70 then and still farming. Said the day he quit farming would be the day he died. He had one of only ten or so round barns in America and the two huge doors on it had a silliotte of a rearing Mustang horse on them. Easily one of the nicest persons I've known in my life. I was in my mid 20's then. Shortly after that I got divorced and custody of my youngest daughter and moved back to Miami Florida where my last stationed at Coast Guard Airstation Miami flying as a Flight Mechanic / hoist operator. If you can't get a job here in South Florida you're lazy or stupid. Never moved back even tho I loved living up there.
you going to have another day that be fun. hope i can get my sc running by then. it be a trip but love to come over. let you know . late. looking for your next video
We bent and welded truck springs across our shoes and never replaced them again. I think that part you found in the field was off an airplane, you know not on an airplane.
I wonder if the Cat dozer you're restoring could operate a hay cutter? Or the bailer? I know it has a PTO pully, but does it have a PTO spline? Can't remember. Anyways, nice video.
So just out of curiosity, what day was this done? In New Jersey, they usually take 1st cut in (early) June I think? I remember being up in the damn mow June 1 - 10 most years? Or was this 2nd cut?
Imagine being here 100 years ago, what would we see? Men, horses and wooden wagons. Imagine being here 100 years from now, what would we see? A Walmart & a strip mall.
Well if it ain't broke it aint borks as rick says. yes that was some good looking stand. you might have even got another bale or two with what was left on the edge, at least finished that small one.
@@squatch253 after watching the video again I noticed that. Must be some good bearings on them, I noticed when he lifted it up to turn around they kept spinning nicely. Thanks squatch. Always good to learn something new.
