This Smith Great Western manure spreader has as a unique style of attachment to the axle that I've never had come through the shop before. Although designed for horses, I'm going to adapt it for my tractor, but keep all the original hardware. Thanks for coming along.
Spring for mugs, tee-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies.

Kids today lack opportunities like these to build practical skills and teach critical thinking and problem solving. We don't learn from our successes; we learn from our mistakes. Thanks for not rescuing this young lad. He is learning more than how to throw a hammer or build a coach. He's learning how to solve problems and that he will apply to so many other areas in his life. I had a teacher like you in High School. Years later, I reached out to thank him for teaching me so many life skills. His reply was "I didn't teach you anything... I simply let you learn." From me and the rest of America, thanks for letting him learn.

Dave quit doing wheels, if the kid really could see the world the way it really is, he would say to Dave let me takeover the wheel business, in the end he would be much happier, than going the way of the world. he would be getting wheels coming in from all over the USA and maybe the world.

Dave had an Apprentice a few years back, but he (the Apprentice) decided that he'd be better off working as a diesel Mechanic (or something similar). I think he still helps Dave when needed like the gigantic wheel projects where Dave needs many hands to handle the large/heavy parts.

Hi Dave, and Diane, The spreader is looking great. I look forward to seeing it in action. It is good of you to have Bryce along to further his knowledge in general for his future. I really must mention you Diane. Behind every good man, is a great woman. I believe that Dave couldn't do what he does without all of your support, and your hard work.

I suspect that Bryce has had the advantage of being raised on a farm or ranch. Farm kids start using tools from an early age and simply absorb practical skills as a matter of practicing them. Back when I was on the apprentice selection board for the company I worked for, a farm kid always got an interview even if his application wasn't a work of literature. They usually came with a lot of attitudes & skills that were needed for a successful apprenticeship.

Over the years, I’ve often thought that there is a desperate need for the knowledge you have to be passed down so that it isn’t lost forever. It’s not possible to teach everything, but it is possible to teach a youngster how to teach himself, as you obviously have. I often said that only if you come to me with the right attitude, I can help gain the right aptitude. Bryce certainly seems to have the right attitude.

Looks like Mr. Bryce learned a lesson in that just because Mr. Engels makes it look easy, that doesn't means it's easy. Looks like he stuck with it and got better with each bolt head. We will miss him when he's done too. I'd love to see him keep doing it even when it isn't for credit anymore. We need young men learning to do this stuff, or the knowledge will die.

@davesimmons8640 2 месяца назад

Here's how I know you're a good teacher, Dave. Bryce may not have squared the bolts in the same way you would have done it, but you didn't "correct" him. You let him do the job HIS way. His way may not have been as quick or efficient as the way you'd have done it, but you let him do the job in the way HE saw best. That takes patience - and a good teacher. And I still think that's the prettiest red color I've ever seen!

I basically did an apprenticeship in auto trans repair. Took me a year of bugging the guy and then working for free for him to agree to teach me. After all that I did not learn much from him lol. Had to learn most of what I knew myself by just rebuilding a bunch of them for myself and friends. Then over a thousand, probably 2-3 over 20-30 years of day to day auto repairs.

I had to laugh. He said he was going to pull this with his "little M". On my late great-uncle's farm, that was the *big* tractor for many years. The little one (and the one I learned to drive on) was a 1946 (+/- a few years) "H". His son (my cousin) fully restored that tractor a while back, and now it can be seen puttering around his farm in Michigan. I saw a facebook post the other day where yet another generation was riding around on it.

@danbreyfogle8486 2 месяца назад

It interests me that the 2 X 6 used as a repair was about 1 1/2". My first job as a carpenter was the summer of 1967 and my boss warned me that we had to "watch the thickness on our 2-bys because they had recently changed from 1 5/8". He explained that everything had changed by 1/8 inch over the last 6 months or so and that the lumber yard would send out whatever they had in stock and ignored the dimensional change. I mention this because based on when the material size changed across the country this dates when that repair was made the last time.

This is a good learning experience for the younger generations, that is "if" they want to learn. Glad this young man is willing and wanting to learn. As for the "spacers", I know many would and will knock those the did it but, many seem to have forgotten something. Back then, money was scarce, and folks back then, made due with what they had/have on hand. My grand dad when he was still alive, let's just say, saving and making things work was an everyday life experience. It does show just exactly how "wasteful" we've become since yesteryear. Really looking forward to seeing your spreader back up and running, hoping to see it in action. Great video as always, cheers :)
