How and why I paint like I do on this spreader. Rebuilding the live apron with all new slats and restored chain puts this manure spreader closer to functioning again. Will it be too pretty to ever use? Thanks for coming along!

There is nothing more rewarding for a young lad than to get hands on experience under the guidance of a master craftsman!

@Garth2011 2 месяца назад

You can't get that in any school !

@ZaphodHarkonnen 2 месяца назад

For the less experienced person perhaps. I’d say it’s pretty rewarding for the mentor to see the less experienced mentee grow in skill and confidence. In fact it’s the part of my job as an experienced dev that I love the most.

@philipallard8026 2 месяца назад

So you stand behind your work but not your manure spreader. It’s wonderful to see the old trades practiced and better see them shared with the rising generation.

@Ham68229 2 месяца назад

It's always wise to stand in front of the manure spreader than behind it ;)

Nothing like letting your work “pile” up on you or to have sh&tty job to do. 😊

I do like the new format a lot. Sheep Wagon, then Sheet Wagon, then Sheep Wagon, then Sheet Wagon. When it's all done he will have a Sheep Sheet Wagon Special.

What Bryce will have learned from you is that humdrum, mundane repetition of a job can result in immense satisfaction of a job well done and that craftmanship can be its own reward.

I clicked on this video when it had been posted for 1 hour. I hit the description to look at something and left it showing. As the video progressed, I became distracted by something in the top right of the screen. That’s when I realized that the numbers beside “Likes” and “Views” were adding up like a Jerry Lewis Telethon years ago! Factor in the reality that you’re rebuilding a poop spreader and the numbers are even more amazing! The popularity of this channel cannot be overstated, and I’m sure I speak for the vast majority of your followers when I say a sincere “Thank You” for all you do to produce these wonderful, educational, videos!

@dannymullen2978 2 месяца назад

Glad you could give the young man a chance to learn some skills he'll keep forever.

@thirzapeevey2395 2 месяца назад

We enjoyed Bryce being there as well. We need young men who want to learn this from you, or the skills will be lost. The spreader looks fantastic, Dave. You must be thrilled to see it coming together.

@gav2759 2 месяца назад

Bryce is a very capable young man. He will enjoy comparing notes with his classmates on how they got on restoring their manure spreaders.

@objektivone3209 2 месяца назад

It brings back memories from my time as a primary school pupil. After a long summer vacation, we started a new school year, and almost all the school's things and interior had been repainted by the school's janitor during the summer vacation. In the same gloss and with the same colors as in the video. "Everything" was painted in high-glaze orange-red, complemented by yellow, blue and black, and I don't know why, but I loved the colors, and I loved the smell of the paint. After a few months, the paint had degassed. It was probably very toxic. Time also flew by over 50 years ago. My grandmother said the same thing about her childhood. She was born about 1909.

@garyreed9831 2 месяца назад

So good of you to mentor Brice, you have a vast knowledge that will some day be lost. Also good to see some young folks getting craft knowledge. I have thoroughly enjoyed your channel for many years.

@Garth2011 2 месяца назад

Yessiree....someone needs to know how to keep a ranch and the animals ! Ain't going to happen on its own.

@billschmitzer9159 2 месяца назад

Bryce was definitely helpful with installing the rollers. It would have been nice if he could have helped you with the slats. The colors look bright and bold, it’s a shame to pile manure on it. It’s too late now but Bryce should have signed and dated the underside of one of the slats.

@bitjockey6265 2 месяца назад

Who would have ever thought that restoring an old decrepit horse-drawn manure spreader - much less watching it be restored - could be so rewarding.

Mundane tasks always form part of the finished product. These videos all show that consistency is paramount towards a craftsman's finished product. Stay safe & well Dave & Dianne.

@edbelledin9600 2 месяца назад

Well done mentoring Bryce; he seemed to take instruction well and was eager to learn and a willing worker! What more could one ask for! Wishing him the very best in his future endeavors. Compared to New Idea,or even John Deere colors, I must admit that is indeed the brightest manure spreader I’ve ever seen! Seems almost a shame to actually use it and get it dirty! I’ve really enjoyed this restoration project and look forward to more episodes and its completion. And Well Done on finding and adapting those rollers! Thanks for taking us along and documenting this interesting and different manure spreader restoration. Be well and take care, Ed Belledin

Brice, best of luck in your future. I know Dave is not a man who lets praise go to his head, but you had one of the very best mentors in the United States teaching you. He has mastered wood, blacksmith, sewing, critical thinking, and meany more trades. So once again, best of luck.

@jameskaufmann4260 2 месяца назад

@twentypdrparrott694 2 месяца назад

I refinished a reproduction 12 pound cannon carriage. I used a heat gun and a paint scraper to remove multiple coats of oil based paint back to bare wood. I then went back with a 50/50 coat of oil based paint and paint thinner. The next coat was 50% paint and 25% paint thinner, with the final coat being 100% oil based paint. That was several years ago and the paint work is holding up well.

Growing up on the farm, the manure spreader was the last piece of equipment to excite me but this restoration gives me a new appreciation for them. Your work on this has been quite amazing. I hope for a similar project in the near future.

@paullynch277 2 месяца назад

Hi Dave. The best Primer for Bare Wood is to use the following - 50% traditional Oil based Undercoat/Primer, 35% Boiled Linseed Oil and 15% Pure Turpentine Oil. Best to apply two coats (24-48 hours apart) and then revert to use straight normal Oil based Gloss Coat to finish. Note you can use Raw Linseed Oil, but then the drying time inbetween coats will be several days. With Boiled Linseed Oil, you can recoat within 24 hours (unless you are in cold or damp climate - then it will take c.48 hours to dry inbetween coats).

@BeagleFanatic1 2 месяца назад

I really enjoy watching your videos on the restoration or complete rebuilding of the old farm wagons and equipment. I live in a rural area and lots of old wooden farm wagons are just left rotting in various fields as lawn art. I hope that when you get the manure spreader complete, you will demonstrate it working, though I would understand not wanting to get something you spent so much time and effort on completely covered in manure and muck.

@jonhaskell9630 2 месяца назад

Bryce has a good mechanical future ahead of him. You can tell lots about a person by the way they hold their tools. First thing I noticed was the fact that he was keeping the ratchet head captive in his off hand while he was adjusting the rollers. Best wishes to his future endeavors!

@brianmros4844 2 месяца назад

Hu Dave, and Diane, this spreader is looking great. I like the option of adding the 1/3 thinner to the paint to make an all in one formula for hardwood. Bryce looks pretty comfortable in the shop now. I'm impressed with the technology of the era on this. Thank you for sharing, and take care.

@terryfromsouthcarolina4601 2 месяца назад

Only you, sir, would put so much time and care into an unsung hero like a manure spreader. You have my admiration. If you get a chance, teach that young man how to run that metal lathe. I started doing machine work around 10 years old and with the exception of a few in-between jobs I have machined, welder, mechanic and fabricator for 50 years. I'm 65 now and have slowed down a lot but have never regretted my dad showing me how to machine metal and work wood. Cheers Terry

Can’t tell you how much I admire a man who paints without resorting, as I always do, to disposable gloves and old sacrificial clothes when painting. Those new wheels look great. My mild OCD would have made me put one in each corner since there were 4 of them. The spreader looks too good for manure now.

@Renville80 2 месяца назад

Since those new wheels are a bit heavier than the original ones, they would probably be more suitable for where there is a bit more stress like those two bars or at the corners.

@pat36a 2 месяца назад

@sidekickbob7227 2 месяца назад

@@Renville80How old was this manure spreader? The wheels are plenty strong enough, due to the fact they where missing, not broken... No point in mounting them places of heavy duty, better to place them where they are hidden away.
