One very important question is do you know JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR?
Congratulations!!! I just retired too, but from Public Education. Best wishes for full time farm life and video production.
@@polkadotfarms Thanks!
Congratulations and welcome to the retirement ranks. Farming makes it very enjoyable.
@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn Thanks!
Wow, congratulations!! I’ve say you’ve earned it and a half. So glad you can focus on this next chapter.
@@windrowfarm Thanks!
Oh Humble- I was hoping your retirement was coming based on your last video! Congratulations! You have a lifetime of projects to get after!!
Thanks!
Congratulations on your retirement. Lord willing, I will be retiring in July 2028. Looking forward to more videos from you. God bless
Thanks!
Congratulations. Retired 2.5 years and I highly recommend it. Was always asked what i was gonna do to stay busy, haven't had that problem so far.
Thanks!
Good for you!! I bet you'll love it!!!
Thanks!
Great now you can be the hot shot hay farmer
Congratulations, I did it 4 years back, its a wonderful feeling. Just that you are going to work even more now.
Thanks!
I bet that feels good. I know the feeling
Thanks!
I'm pulling the plug May 1st on the day job.....already got a bunch of people who want me to work next summer...I told them" When there isn't farming, I'll work"...Congrads.
Thanks!
Well, congratulations!! With the hay business keeping you busy, you probably won't feel retired 😂
Thanks!
Congrats sir! Enjoy your time on the farm.
Thanks!
Congratulations! I can't wait to retire so I can be here on the farm full time... I tell em every day at work i just don't have time to come to work anymore cause there's too much I need to do at home... 😅
Thanks!
Congratulations!!! Wish you all the best in retirement!!
Thanks!
Congratulations Bill!!! Let's pick!!!
Mid day jam - we seniors don’t drive after dark you know…
Do you still have the Farmall 350, nice tractor.
Yes
Congratulations! After selling my dairy herd 10 years ago I can now say that I do the things I do because I want to, not because I have to. Hope that's true for you now as well.
Thx - fingers crossed…👍
Congratulations! Be a farmer full time! Planning on retiring from my day job next August!
Thanks!
Well, congratulations on your retirement, truly you will do more than you think. Being there myself for a while, I think I do more now than before, not, but hey make it fun too! Good luck and I know you will enjoy the retirement. Have a good evening!
Thanks!
Congrats Bill!!! 🎊🎉💥 I bet those fields look a little greener these days. Enjoy retirement!!
Thanks!
What happened in the new video I’m so confused did you quit farming???
Got a 40 yr old 028 WB that runs rings around the MS250 I have. Without a doubt the MS250 is the HARDEST to start chain saw I have ever seen.
No problems with mine whatsoever and I use it all the time.
@@joshuaosborne5748 It is a good saw just to much compression for a old guy with a bad shoulder to pull the cord ,
FYI - X300 and X500 with the respective brush guards work very similarly. A pin is removed and the guard tilts downward, just like this one.
Project Farm did a series of tests comparing Lucas grease to Walmart Supertech grease. The Lucas won in every category handily. I trust Supertech with oils and oil filters but not grease.
Great tractor and mower - in Ireland, we called it a "cutting bar". I grew up with tractors and mowers very like those; this was great to see. Very scenic countryside too. Thanks for the video.
Fantastic video, I can see now what the hype is around Lawn-Boys. Stuffing the muffler between the blade and the deck is a genius idea. I've got a very similar Simplicity, just with a 4 stroke 3.5 hp Briggs engine. I got it on the side of the road for free and got it running and cutting. I can't find anything out about when it may have been made other than that the engine was made in 1969. It also has a similar lever for a self propel feature, but uses a belt to drive the rear wheels instead of what looks to be maybe gears or something on yours? I see that Lawn-Boy made decks like that at least as early as 1965, just looking at random videos, so I imagine it was Simplicity that copied Lawn-Boy? My Simplicity also has an aluminum or magnesium deck (I don't know which) and an almost identical removable steel plate in the top front of the deck that was meant to be removable to attach a bagging chute. It has the same discharge and goofy wheel layout as well. I literally cannot even find a picture or video of one on the internet, but you can find the manual if you search Simplicity 990491, if curious.
I have a 335 with the same problem the only way that I have found to make the belts start turning again is the bumper SCV lever you have to keep an eye on it once you lose it and it gets to that point you can’t get the belts to turn back on, so what I would do as I was making a bale every few seconds I would bump my door closed what to get aggravating, especially was worse. I had to hold the lever whenever I went to tie, but I have a hydraulic tier This year I tied a bungee strap around the lever just a hold a little bit of pressure on, so I can make a bald in peace I’ve had this problem for many years and it’s getting old. I understand your frustration. My next step this winter was to install a stainless steel high pressure shut off Ratt, where the quick connect, meet the rubber hose specifically on the retract line that way when after you get done tying, can you shut your door tight all you have to do is reach behind you and turn the shut off. If you find any solutions to this, please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it. and I will do the same.
I wonder if the side discharge chute will work for the non commercial Honda push mowers ? Hmm 🤔
What size bale does it make
We have a very old farm, 45 acres of hay. I agree and experienced everything you said!!
I have used a sickle mower all my life and still do at 72. Best combination I ever used was a massey harris mower with a 22 massey harris tractor. Ground speed and revs mated so well. Still have the 22 and am fixing it up for use again.
You made right decision bud trust me if u have any issues wit it holler I can probably help I run our 335 from 1991 to 2022 only things I done was new chains and repacked cylinders on gate and 3 bearings and they pretty easy to change .. and I had about half new pick up teeth in it and 4 of the guards... and I had 2 replace cables goin to bale shape indicators and that's it
A 375 wich is still 4ft tall but 5ft wide are good rollers to but kinda hard to go down road 10ft wide when u hauln
I'm guessing my 335 made about 15,000 I know of and the belts and lift cylinders and a big spring is wat makes a good tight roll bud ..if u get to herring a thumping at times when u rolling get u one of them temp guns and after you run it check temp on every roller bearing the one that hoter is ur problem.. may I ask wat about u gave for 335? I'm thinking of selling myne
Leaven the hay roller goin well help keep loose hay out
The mega wide pickup is a good thing cause it keeps your sides more full and thus makes a better and tight roll that don't squish ... you can see thru the gaps in belts on the deer watch when starting your roll about hay goin to top and make sure you got the tail gate shut completely b4 you start in hay
My new roller is a 5x4 but u can adjust it to wat size u want up to 5 ft tall..if you ever have a roll when verry 1st starting a roll it shoots up to the top rollers you got a problem but they a simple solution it sounds crazy but it sucks tryn to climb on top of it tryn 2 cut and pull the hay out...if u ever need to know ask I'll tell ya
I got a John deer 335 it's a 1991 she ready for new belts .. so u in Va I'm down here in Bristol Va I bought a new 540e roller ... I've run a vermere same as 1 u was lookn at didn't like the yeller 1 at all
I have one Massey 50 made in 1963 in nowdays yet at work.
Glad you’re getting some rain. We used to call those chestnut trees butternut trees when I was growing up. Had a nice one next to the chicken coop.
Thanks - finally getting some rain and cooler temps. Hoping the grass will snap out of it and give me some decent hay yield.
Best baler john deere ever made. Simple bought a good used one in 2003 it is a 92 model. Still baling with it today in 2024. Just keep it up and don't cheap out. If it needs something give it to it. Years later it will keep paying dividents. Good luck with your new green psint.
You play awesome enjoyed that thankyou. Have a great day.
Nice job, I like it. Thanks and have a good weekend!
Thanks!
Brand new HRC2163HXP today! Sorry to see my Snapper HIVAC go after 23 years but when I saw that HONDA was giving up on small engines I just had to buy the best version of a lawn mower I've ever seen.
Update? Are you happy?
Where did you the pump and the coupler?
How much diesel consumption per hour for this task
The clipping idea is interesting, I never thought of that before! What do you mow with when you clip?
Mower conditioner set high.
Looking pretty good! After the last 2 weeks I’m starting to feel a bit more positive about my hay growth.
Yea - we are about to get pounded by 3-5 inches of more rain over the next few days and 80’s temps. Should be good for growth…👍
