We had a 500 bushel dryer like that about 50 years ago in the USA and it worked great. Identical but they were brand name of Toxowick grain dryers. One concern in the shed it will condense on the roof and drip everywhere in the shed and may rust your roof and frame of the shed and drip on the dry grain Phil. Thank you for another great video and sharing your life with us and I am in Minnesota USA..
Last Farm I worked at late 70s got 1 of those dryers good bit of kit but grain got burnt a couple of times when an internal chain would break in the bottom which stopped the grain circulating before it went up the auger. Probably improved since then but don't leave it unattended to long and keen sense of smell for burning grain is your early warning. 👍
I see the Triffitt trailer was originally from Northfield Agricultural Services who sold quite a lot these over the years just next door to us in East Yorkshire. We had 3 ourselves.
Phil I think the Massey Trailer is the same as the blue one in Background? Marston, I think? Freeze at 11:30 and you can see the same fishplate on the side of the chassis frame.
Hope your new purchases work well for you this year, Douglas has some very tidy machinery, have dealt with him before. You picked the trailer up at the Spar shop on the Glen road, not exactly my neck of the woods but I know it.
bloody good trailers those triffits, built not far from were i live and has a local to me dealer sticker on it "Northfield" were i worked many years ago
Nice drier had one 30 years ago. The auger filling the drier is slow to fill. We took it off and just a 6 inch portable auger to fill it ,much faster and could set it up to fill in a more suitable place and make it more efficient
AHHHH i see whats going on...... Now there is an excellent excuse for more tractors....😂😉.. I will be keeping an eye on the dryer work as we have thought about getting a small mobile dryer for some time.. gas or deisel fired is still up for debate though... . Stay safe 🏴
Well done and deserved ye will need some size of a machinery shed 2 cope with all yer gear alot coming not much leaving r being traded in,well wear on all yer stuff
Will there be a new telehandler in the mix soon phil.?? The old jcb bumble bee is looking tiered & a little to small but still worth her weight around the farm
Does father Phil see into the future, because this was the year to buy a grain dryer, especially when you did because I bet over the last month they have gone up in price a lot
Goodman phil, father phil thinking ahead, great team work there to get the dryer off and in the shed, be good too see the setup working, good purchase on the trailers, be great for grain and beet etc going forward, yee always seem to have laugh doing things, keep videos coming
Nice looking trailers should be able to move the grain a bit better, hope they can fit into the shed when lifted.. The hydraulic rear gates are great. used to borrow a neighbors one back in the 90's when they were few and far between and it made drawing silage and grain so must easier, used it for dung as well and much quicker. i know its a bit late now but would it not have been easier to pull the 2 trailers together? most trailers have a hitch nowadays.
@@FARMERPHIL3690 thats pity, might be something worth looking at for when you have the 2 combines going as you may end up with just 1 or 2 tractors drawing and 3 trailers depending on what else has to get done that day.
Nice one Phil The man who stands still is going nowhere, you have to invest and push on. Greedy boards are old school, I'd be interested to see how many ton of wheet the MF can hold, it's probably engineered for a max tonnage and going that bit extra might be the straw that breaks the camels back, if gredy boards were only used to load the trailer to its design capacity and stop any falling off coming out of uneven ground, fair enough but once you fit them you'll need greedy boards on top of the greedy boards to prevent spillage, in other words, leave the trailer original
