I pour old motor oil on my spreader chains and floor each spring before use.

@johnhenderson299 Год назад

Trailer turned out great

@anthonyhengst2908 Год назад

Aaron Gierok never is slacking off. Repurposed equipment is a true measure of ingenuity. I always looked forward to what comes up next with something like this. We had an old spreader that kind of looked like that. It was a Schultz I believe.

@ThomasDrehfal Год назад

Yes, I believe that is a Schultz.

@mikehasburgh7 Год назад

I am almost certain that is a Schultz 110 model spreader, pre 1965 most likely. I sold them starting early 1970. They had wood sides in that timeframe,but older ones had steel sides. The wood block chain tightened by the gear box is original. Around 1980 they started using the long PTO shaft like yours. We sold most of the 110 with 15” rims for easier loading by hand. Keep up the good videos, I enjoy them very much. All good memories from the past.

@anthonyhengst2908 Год назад

@@mikehasburgh7 thanks for commenting. We used our spreader for better than 40 years. I remember having to replace a bearing in front of the gearbox by the beaters it took us a couple of days to get a collar off. Tough business.

@tpfromcentralpa1692 Год назад

@@mikehasburgh7 I got an old Schultz Spreadmaster I still use. Has the side extensions and top beater. Its interesting the gear box is one spead for the apron, but those engineeers must have had the speed spot on because it spreads pack manure very evenly. I got mine from the original owner. They ordered it on 15" rims like you mentioned, but sprung for the tandem axle version. I got alot of looks when I first got it, told people that were here, hang on, I got to get my big tandem axle spreader out...............They think 195 NH or 3632 NI or something similar, and out I come around the corner with this tandem axle elf spreader. The looks were priceless. Either way, it was stored in bank barn when not in use and kept clean, can still read the decals on it.

Reminds me of our old Cobey manure spreader

@danielhurrle7008 Год назад

Nice job repurposing the spreader. Will be a very handy trailer.

@Sagern234 Год назад

After i seen your other former manure trailer converted to hauling stuff i have been keeping my eyes out.. need a heavier trailer to haul various materials up and out of the hollars....

@markgroth4380 Год назад

You can find most anything you need for building small sheds at Menards bargain spot. But you need to be early and often.

@timrydman-mr5hp Год назад

Very nice work on the floor. Chainsaw taper worked very good.

@timstevens2866 Год назад

Maybe U can put silage in that trailer and a side shoot on the tail and drive along heifer barn and feed like U had a feed wagon and not have so much shoveling to do

@stackshouse Год назад

Dude!!! I need that tool, we have a new idea that uses that style chain, thanks for the info that it exists!

Love the videos and keep up the great work. And repurposing an old implement. Is awesome.

@derekjensen5918 Год назад

once again another great and the work that you do is really awsome. your dad is very skilled with the chain saw and it is always neat to watch him when he works with them. Cant wait to see the next vid. Have a great Easter

@trevthemeatman2588 Год назад

My dad bought a couple of old corn picker wagons and did the same thing by putting new floors in we use them for hauling fire wood and scrape metal they work good because they are tall and have swing doors on them

Ah the old using a fence stretcher to reassemble detachable chain trick. Used to do that a lot around here.

@brandonhoad9033 Год назад

Had a case/white dealership near by that took beaters out of honey wagons they took on trade and sold them as self unloading firewood trailers. That's all I can think of watching you redo this spreader

@dalemayes3854 Год назад

Another great video 😊

@maddog2771 Год назад

Looks like a New idea

@johnwoody4905 Год назад

good video and job may have been a new idea. take care, be safe and well.

@johnhatt1219 Год назад

It might also work to bring silage up to the heifers where you can use the pto to unload with

@RobertWardwll Год назад

Soak the floor with linseed oil.. Will save the broads and last much longer.

@Tom-np3en Год назад

Got to save the BROADS

@carlandersen6930 Год назад

It looks to me. like a Colby we had one years ago after years of service, we cut off the beaters and used it to haul dirt. we mounted a long cylinder up by the tongue

@timmyscroggins1962 Год назад

A manure spreader is the only piece of equipment on a farm designed to kick the crap out of itself.... 💩💩💩💩 😅

@mikesallewsky4185 Год назад

45 years ago I talked my Dad into taking the beater bar off of our manure spreader. We had such a large firewood pile outside that we could use the front end loader to load the wood into the spreader, then back into the wood shed and run the spreader to unload. Sure was quicker to stack the wood when it came to you. Always thought I was a genius for that idea but dad never said a word.

I won't rat you out, if you don't tell my boss I took a nap while watching this video, oh wait I'm my own boss, so I guess it's ok😂😂

@billyhenry3029 Год назад

Hey appreciate the video guys I am not one to push my thoughts on anyone else's work but the little hut as you called it I would suggest one thing try to make sure it is not in a lot of traffic of your animals or human with the edges of that metal roofing is very dangerous as for as cutting you long and deep I have put a lot of the same metal on a lot of houses I have been doing roofing for 43 years and I've seen that stuff cut a few people it's not a pretty sight just saying

@dennis82468 Год назад

I love the name of your current spreader....Slinger. Prefect name 😂

@farmerdans8403 Год назад

Looks like a Kelly Ryan. I've got a Forage King that's similar. Thanks for the video.

@anthonymichaels9034 Год назад

I'm not sure what brand the spreader is, But the wheels look like the ones on old Chevy trucks late 40's thru mid 50's most of those had the three piece wheel not as dangerous as the ones that split in the middle, But still dangerous.

@raymitch3768 Год назад

I have dealt with lots of that style chain, but have never seen that tool. Wish we had one.

Love the tool "show and tell". I have several mystery tools that I have picked up at auctions. But also have some unique or special purpose tools that a lot of people have no idea what they are for. I love that you are rebuilding the spreader instead of scrapping it. Thanks for another great video.

@davidmarley9471 Год назад

Back in the day, in our area we called that old style chain ‘flat iron’ chain, and with slats in the bottom of a spreader, combine, baler, etc. an apron chain. A real pain if one side broke and the other didn’t, that could tear stuff up real well. I always heard the tool used called a ‘chain detacher’.

@doncc6080 Год назад

Great to see you guys finding uses for what most would consider scrap. The generator shed, don't you need some screen to keep birds and critters out?

@marklen2322 Год назад

You need to do something with the coners of that roof. The cattle will cut thenselfs for sure. Old split ring rims are very dangerous, most tire shops will no longer work on them because they are so dangerous. Buy a used newer one peice rim so no one ends up dead.

@nalley6815 Год назад

Pretty sure in the video he said he wasn’t using them…..

@marklen2322 Год назад

@@nalley6815 I think he said he was going to find new tires not different rims. The split rims are the dangerous issue. If they fly apart when you fill them with air you are dead.

@glenschumannGlensWorkshop Год назад

Remember using the chain tool. My parents let me run the farm for a week while they took a vacation. One of the Gehl wagons had a problem with the chain while I was using it to put fresh green chopped hay into the feeder bunks in our permanent pasture. I got it fixed. Will those carriage bolt heads on the outer boards get worn by the chain links? If only getting light use, that may not matter much.

@benrogers5808 Год назад

When I was on the farm I always carried a section tool while mowing hay.

@kswaynes7569 Год назад

It caught my attention when you were running the apron chain over the new floor, the chain is installed backwards from the usual manure spreader chain. The floor will clean better when the normal sharp corner of the cross angle irons are running towards the rear. Great little unit for firewood or sawdust.

@jamesbreault5762 Год назад

Have never seen that tool before

@Blackwellll3066 Год назад
