@bobjacobs9521 13 дней назад

Raise your 3 point lift to mow the grass higher and set a stop on the lift to have a consistent height. Regarding the hammers, you will hit less rocks if you mow higher. With nuts coming lose on the mower, you Igor use some lock tite to fix the nuts so they do not vibrate loose. You are living the dream guys, but it is a result of hard work and smart planning ahead. Great videos.

@rogeremberson6464 13 дней назад

A Belt & Braces way would be to use Nyloc nuts as well as Loctite. Nyloc's are less prone to loosening due to vibration.

@ssnidely 13 дней назад

im thinking he is just going to go through some hammers with new pasture. eventually high spots will be worked out the more you use it on the pasture. the land will shape itself to the machine. its either that or get a power rake to smooth out the rough spots.

@davidgetchell3633 13 дней назад

It seems that the nuts are coming loose more then the hammers breaking, tighten all nuts then put some weld on nut& bolt, if hammer breaks cut bolt off and replace them.

@forrestgump9576 13 дней назад

had the same thought using blue loctite.

@bruceadler-9410 13 дней назад

I think when it's in the down position, it's not directly supported by the 3 point hitch. I think the mower attachment has a pivot which is supposed to allow it to float on its skid plates. That's so it can automatically conform to the slope of the ditch/ground.

Enjoy your class Damogran Heart! I can hear the teen-aged son upstairs making stuff for the tea party he'll have this afternoon. He has the classical music blasting and the mixer working! So fun! He made a beautiful cheesecake last night. He mixed up some cinnamon roll bread last night and had it proofing overnight. I'm so glad he and my older son have been friends since kindergarten. My other son has visited here over many years too. He was just a year younger than them. I am so blessed to have them in my life. My host's son is a music major at college and now my son is going to his same college and getting a dorm room there. It'll be great that they at least share the same campus. My oldest son, the 41 year old one, works at the campus delivering sandwiches! When they were at high school together, my host's son and my next older son, they took most of the advanced placement classes together. My son would tutor their son in math because he had so much extracurricular stuff like performing in all the high school plays, being in the band, and a special choir in high school that he needed help to learn the hard math too. He's an amazing young man. I'll be so fun to hear them enjoying themselves today.

Spotted Joe-Pye weed is a perennial plant native to North America. It can grow as tall as 7 feet. It is often found in damp or wet areas, such as marshlands and swamps, and it produces purplish-pink colored flowers at the top of stems that are purple or green with purple spots.

@julieelliott-eickenroth7317 13 дней назад

Yup, that’s what it is! Easy to mistake for milkweed.

@bruceadler-9410 13 дней назад

Here's a couple of things you can try to stop losing those flail hammers so frequently. Put some high-strength threadlocker on those bolts. There are Loctite Red products that are so strong that the nuts will only be removable by heating with a torch. Or, replace the plain nuts with nyloc nuts. Or, use longer bolts and double-nut them.

@damogranheart5521 13 дней назад

All of these ideas sound very good to me!😊

@bruceadler-9410 13 дней назад

I think a foolproof method of preventing the nuts from loosing by themselves is to weld the nuts onto the bolts. If you have to replace a broken hammer, just use an angle grinder on the nut or bolt. That might seem like a drastic fix, but I think it's the only method that's guaranteed to prevent losing a hammer. Because, no matter what else you do, I don't think the bolts and nuts will stay tight enough Just trying to re-tighten down the existing nuts tighter than before is a lost cause. I think it's a bad design to rely on just bolt and nut tension to resist them being shocked loose. Trying to make them tighter will just deform the mounts slightly more than before. But, it seems to me that the nuts are getting lose because when the hammers hit any object that's harder than grass (e.g. rocks, ground, tree branches, etc), the hammers are hitting with enough force to shock and deform the mounts even more, which causes the nuts to lose tension and loosen a bit on each blow. What you need is a mounting method that doesn't just depend on deforming the mounts and stretching the bolts enough for them to have enough tension to resist the impact forces. In other words, you have to use a nut locking method that prevents already loose nuts from loosening more -- it shouldn't matter even if the bolts are already loose enough to turn freely in the mounts. In other words, you need nut retainer method like how a spindle nut is retained on an axle using cotter pings, or foldover retainers, or grub screws through the nuts, etc etc etc. With such designs the nuts are installed loose but it's impossible for a nut to spin even looser, until the locking mechanism is removed.

@StoneKathryn 13 дней назад

@@bruceadler-9410 I really like that castle nut idea. That would be a good way to keep them there as long as the cotter pins don't get pulled out by grass sticking in them. Or breaking the cotter pins. Thanks for sharing that idea. I vote to try it. I have no idea if castle nuts are easy to find in that size. They usually are at the end of shafts so that makes sense. Have a great rest of your week!

@tmacmi9095 13 дней назад

A suggestion for your mower attachment; maybe try using longer bolts to attach the hammers and install a second nut as a retainer to lock the nut on. Use grade 8 or stainless steel bolts. Worth a try 😊

@bruceadler-9410 13 дней назад

That would be an improvement. It would depend on how tightly he could tighten the nuts against each other rather than against the mounting bracket. But I think it still might not be enough to resist the impact forces generated by hitting objects like hard ground, rocks, roots and branches, etc). In other words, even double-nuts can be shaken loose if hit hard enough. I think he should just weld the nuts on.

@hollowpoint357sw4 13 дней назад

I also suggest using loc-tite also and double checking them maybe once a week or twice a week just to make sure they’re tight. I mean they’re super easy to access.

@derekbarratt 12 дней назад

I often think when watching them preparing the ground that they never seem to pick up enough of the very many small rocks that are lying around. I know that it can be a boring job but this is what happens if you don't.

@davidallred4266 11 дней назад

@LumnahAcres If the flail was hitting rocks, then the blades would be breaking or bending and not falling off. This seems to be more likely subject to the nuts coming off and the whole blade flying off with the bolt. He needs to check every bolt once a day before mowing, also using 2 lock nuts would help.

@bruceadler-9410 10 дней назад

@@davidallred4266 I agree. So far he hasn't found a single broken bolt or flail hammer. I think the real problem is that the constant shocks and vibrations of the flail hammers are acting just like an impact wrench and un-torquing the bolts and nuts regardless of how tight they're initially torqued against the mounting ears. I think it's a bad design to just rely on trying to torque the nuts against the mounting ears so tight that they won't unscrew themselves. Instea, I think the nuts have to be locked onto the bolts, not torqued against the mounting ears. I think the easiest fix would be to weld the nuts on the bolts anytime one of them becomes loose. That way the only way he'd lose a flail hammer is if something breaks.

Turkeys are in Barn ( hanging-out with chicks that are to be replacement Hens ) still young and growing-out feathers ! Al and Gina had Horses, not at last Homestead, but the homestead before last, and Al said having Horses again would be a nice idea, think another Barn would be needed !

Good morning Lumnah family. This is another awesome video. Especially the side by side comparison of the two different mowing techniques. I can't wait to see the compost/manure spreader in use. You are doing an excellent job planning your homestead growth and managing your property. You started this homestead from raw land and it's amazing what you have already accomplished. Azalea and Cookie look amazing and healthy. Would love to see how Gina manages all the milk you get.

Gooood morning Lumnah family and friends!🌄😊 The pastures are doing so nice in such a short period of time! You're right Al, the sound of cows of eating is the best sound. And the smell of fresh cut hay is the best😁. On early this morning, going out at 5 am to load my meat birds into the trailer to go to the butcher. Someday soon, hope to purchase a plucker. Used 1,000 pounds of feed in 8 weeks for 49 birds! That's with being on pasture. Gotta be some 8 pounders out there when dressed out. First year growing this many. Did not lose any, except one chick DOA. Used Azure's premium corn/soy free organic feed. May rethink feed options next year👨‍🌾🐔

Al maybe set your mower height with your 3point hitch a little higher. It might be a little low and hitting rocks or something. We love and enjoy your family and channel. Take care. 👍❤️

@CC-Rider4564 13 дней назад

AL I think its time to get a different kind of mower thats not constantly requiring putting new blades on it constantly. Seems to me to be a bad design, Maybe look into a used mower in good condition from NH State Auctions. Look for a roadside mower for your road.

@CC-Rider4564 13 дней назад

@@samvalentine3206 yeah or one of the heavy Duty swell mowers like the State uses on the side of the roads 🛣️. I told AL in another comment to check out the State auction sales where they sell off equipment he may be able to pick up a great condition low hour mower at a great price. Plus they have a much longer reach than the one he has Sam, which means less time mowing doing the same areas.😁👍🏼

This is just a suggestion. Change your lockout from nylocks to a regular lock nut. That will more then likely fix your problem.

Hi. That plant that smels so good is called asclepias syriaca or common milkweed. It is found mainly in northeastern and midwestern United States and Canada.

@passinthru9757 13 дней назад

Al, please step out of your tractor facing the interior of the cab. Hold the handle with your left hand. That way the toe of your boot is more secure on the steps. Personally spent 6 weeks from falling 3-4 feet out of semi onto concrete. I flinch every time you exit face outward. Practice until new pattern. When editing video, notice how shallow your foot is on the step.

Mornin from Rhode Island. I took a class in college about pasture management because I figured it would be important if I ever wanted to get ruminants (fancy word for cows/goats) to mow my lawn. What you are doing is basically what was explained a whole lot in the class. Mowing is important cause it gets rid of what the cows can’t/won’t eat. If you have time maybe try to do rotational grazing with Azalea/Cookie and the goats with Captain Miles.
