Your life would be a lot easier Phil if ye had new gear it would pay for itself no downtime less working hours servicing and ye could have some bit of a life it's passing u by Phil your too young for all these hours fair play to u Phil I know Phil I lost my wife at 37 I was working day and night for what I had half an hour to make up my mind to turn off a life support machine all the work won't bring her back now mind yourself and mind liv
A beautiful message fair play 👏
As long your above ground that's the most important thing 😊
Forecasting this summer has been brutal. Changing everyday.
I'm sorry, but I've had this discussion before on a previous post with some of your viewers.
I know it's nice when you have a fleet of old tractors making money with little depritiation, I also have a couple of older tractors, but my front line tractors, which I rely on day to day are new with warranty. I don't have the breakdowns, and even if I do, there would be a replacement or the dealer would be out to me ASAP and get me going again.
I know exactly how you feel phil if only people eating the food farmers produce knew the hardship that goes into producing it
But you got to love it to do it
Fair play to you for making this video and showing it as most people if honest has days like this at times and you seem to had a good selection of problems all in the one day but even those with new machinery have down times with electronic issues while paying massive monthly bills. It's definitely more of a pain for you that is contracting and trying to keep others happy while tractors breakdown but always remember that once the problems are outside of the house you are lucky as problems inside normally can't be fixed with money.... Hopefully the rest of your week improves and you get some repairs done on the 3075 and that famous 6480.....
Usually after the third breakdown it's better off park up and go to the pub.
Thanks so much for the picture with my son and daughter on sunday in Raheen ,busy myself bailing so i missed the day
Chin up Phil...if it was easy everybody would be doing it ...we've all had bad days ...ye just need to keep on going .
The joys of machinery lad , the joys of it . Let it be a lesson to ya , without ole Derek around you are lost for repairs
Over the years I
have had many a day like that , its so hard to stay going when its happening , the main thing is no one was hurt , machinery can be fixed ,
Great video , its real life , fair play for showing the hardship of farming life
In my very limited experience with welded flywheels and old tractors, it always eventually ends in fairly catastrophic failure. Youll be going alimg grand for a while and then bang, weld fails and your flywheel is useless.
Your video prompted me to check on some friends to see how they are doing.
That 6480 is for the scrap have of shite the poor 3690 is giving endless bother
Phill that's what happens when you run old kit,new kit is mega expensive yes but old kit breaking down cost money and customers at least with new kit it's covered under warranty, change every 3 years keep things fresh and under warranty, monthly finance on new kit would cover breakdown costs labour cost to replace parts ,worth looking into mate you probably know this anyway good luck phill
You're aren't wrong but Phil's MO is finding value in well used machinery and fixing themselves. And through this they uniquely probably do better than with your strategy.
Yeah but u couldn't keep as many new ones best have few spare yokes
It's 1 thing if it's your own job but when dealing with customers is a completely different scenario when dealing with breakdowns , as far as they're concerned it's only about there job ONLY 🥺 , no matter where you are in the world they're always the same 😡
That's a great point! It would be very interesting to hear Phil's opinion on this. Comparing the yearly cost of repairs for old equipment, which will be breaking down more frequently, versus the monthly repayments for new kit.
Just a scrap yard really
It would be neat to see you restore the 3690 now, seeing as you've already have a pile of work to do to it now
This is probably going to be your black Monday that father Phil had in a day in July in 2002
You’ll be glad to see father Phil back I bet!
You are running a bigish business. You have taken on even more with the build. I think you guys manage fairly well all pulling together. I hope the next few days are better. Keep things in perspective. It will alll work out.
I feel your frustration and i remember those tiring days during bailing, but remember tomorrow is another day. Sending good luck and energy to you. Hang in there and take care!
I feel ur pain. I bought a tractor for 5500 thought I could spend another 1000 to fix small things ended up spending another 5500 and just found out I need to take the cab off, split it and take the top cover off to fix it just to be able to use it.
Is nt Father Phil a cool man the way he deals with the stress for the other 50 weeks of the year.
Enjoy your break Derek. 😂😂😂😂
Dear Phil,
Its a few weeks past since you posted this video. I watch your videos all the time, but often my viewing is delayed. Its blatantly transparent that on this day, you had the day of days and you didn't want to pick up the camera, to share all your goings on with us. Thank you for doing so though. Its good content, and I think you're smart enough to know that. Also what a great advertisement for Massey Ferguson!
On a serious note, thank you for your videos and content. You having a bad day and letting us in as an audience is important. It cements that parasocial bond. It lends itself to authenticity which is increasingly rare for online content. Its also amazing to see how much you've grown. I remember watching you a few years ago and by your own admission you knew noting about mechanicing or the dynamics of machinery beyond driving. Look at you now, diagnosing issues and knowing exactly what is wrong and how it needs to be fixed.
Thank you for sharing and I look forward to the Farm shop. I'm sure it will be a great success.
Know how you feel we will miss seeing Father Phil he’s such a great man 👨.You are our favourite farmers in the world 🌍.So so good luck 😉.😊
Some days are grand and things go perfect then others go FUBAR. Fate has wicked sense of humour.
Everyone has day's like that phill!!!!
What a day 😥
Here i will share our 2020 silage blue
We bought a jf900 to buy and sell sorta thing, new tines, belts, pulleys, tyres, shaft and many donekys of work done, 1:30pm, first row lifted, blower gave up, cannot shoot the grass through, so very last minuet to a contractor, who could come at the earliest at 8pm. Then when the harvester was on its way home, the tractor nh ts115a on it, lost its high box, so we where down a tractor to draw, so we borrowed a farmers lambo 100 evo, the Hydraulic pump went on it so we had to put an 8t trailer on a nh8560. Then the tractor i was driving, case maxxum 5140, lost its top working lights at the back, so i could not see anything behind me at the pit bar the brake lights and hazards, then our buckrake tractor was far too light, so we had to make a fabulous contraption: weld a frame of a tractor bale spike onto the buckrake, of which bale spike had q fit brackets for a telehandler (sanderson tl6, mighty yoke), oh the side window broke on the tele. The contractors pottinger mex 6 kept blocking due to sticky grass, sticks and a electric wire reel, but we cut-off the knotted bit and it blew out the rest of it, into the hedge so the birds can have microplastics. Next morning, 7am, the contactor driving collapsed and hit his head, so we had to get a driver for the harvester. Then the mex 6 right tyre burst, so we had to wait until fixed. Then the 6499 on the mex 6 ran out of fuel which was a pain to get bled again. My 5140 started pishing oil from the propshaft seal. Then the t6080 drawing lost all its drive. So we had to put a 30k case 956xl on the 5 mile draw. Then, the 10x was too much trouble with blockages etc, then we got another lad to lift in a landini and Pottinger mex 5, the landini lifted a whopping 2 rows, broke its fan belt. 6 acres later, the fanbelt went again. Then the rain came, and by holy god did it rain. I had no wiper. Eventually we got it lifted and that friday night was a bad day to be a pint of beer.
2nd cut was smooth then, because all we did was mow it.
Great story! Thanks
If this was the leaving cert this would be a H1 😂
Just keep going,things will get better 😉👍🏻
A weeks work is one thing
A weeks thinking!
Is a whole other story! ...
Phil , turn a negative into a positive and make your next T-shirt “ Our 6480 is a C**T of a tractor “ 🤣. That was so funny lol
Phil anyone who ever owned or ran machines new or old, has days like that on the bright side if will get better , think of what Father Phil Uncle Ian and all those blokes have traveled through Greeting from Oz
Some days it just be like that... Thats machinery for you...
Out contracting ya need fresh reliable machinery. Is stressful enough without breaking down. The fusion has to about to let you down badly some day Phil. Ye seem to always have lots or too much ya might say 😂 off work, maybe funding a few proper new machines would make like easier. I’m not going to say a good investment because it’s huge expense but definitely make your working day and life easier and maybe some time to enjoy a big of life
Olly blogs mentioned you the last day Phil, people slagging him for buying new fendts... im sure you have a plan to get a new one in the next few years, but for now investing in the new farm shop is the priority and best wishes with that
If money sorts a problem, it's never that bad. Keep the head up and hope for the best
Is Robert still working about the place lad?
Father phill was right When the workshop is empty of tractors something will brake down 😂
Nice meeting you in Raheen vintage rally last Sunday Phil & Liv. Shit happens, it will pass, best of luck.
Ya feel like having a good cry and thats the truth.

Good video Phil, I hope you have a better day tomarrow if something can go Rong it will.
That's a day and a half! Been there done that, end up driving round with half the workshop in the cab !
Years ago whenever mam n dad went away for a few days something always broke or livestock died. The joys of farming.
Twill only get better.
Looking for an old valmet engine I'd go and ring Clarkes and see if they have any valmets going for breaking or ring a few valtra dealerships and see if they could get you a crank shaft I'd say some1 from some valtra dealership would be able to get you one it's worth a try🤔
Hi farmer Phil, life can be tough, only way is keep going fight on to another day , can only get better
Murphy’s engines down in Cork City will have a crankshaft in stock. They sourced a new engine for my 35
Murphys Overhalls are brilliant alright and great to deal with
@@aidancurtin9210 couldn’t fault them
Rough day. Hopefully when you get up tomorrow, things are going to go a bit better.
You will most definitely be due BETTER LUCK 🤞🤞 next time out …. Keep the faith 💪💪💪
Waiting on men no jok
Could do with a lady like jess.. can do any job.. way to go jess 👍👍❤
What a day you had - hopefully things are better now for you.
Phil, chin up! You've a lot on. If ye weren't doing a carpark, building a shop and showroom, building a house, running a beef enterprise and a contracting business it wouldn't have bothered you so much.
Lee will get value out of the insulated shed/garage for the winter! 😉
It's tough at the top Phil. Murphys law will always strike when you least want it. Carry on regardless and laugh about it later.
Feel for you man.
Nice one Phil
Maybe now is the time to be thinking about investing in more modern plant. Too many tractors letting you down when you need them. Where is Lee ?
Keep on keeping on
New stuff breaks as well dealer vans have been known to follow the odd tractor up and down fields on a regular basis as well, more dealers should have hire fleets like shaw and tfm for situations like this make a call and have a tractor land in the field to keep the show on the road
@@jimconnolly3572i recently had to hire a tractor as my own tractor was being split in the garage,The total bill for the hire of the tractor for the week was €1250 including vat for 55 hours I done in 7 days. It was a New Holland t6.180 with a loader so a very versatile tractor can do just about everything
Brilliant video.....timely reminder of how hard the job can be
There is a man in tullamore has bits for them
Time to say goodbye to da scarp
Phil, when it rains it pours!! Hope better days ahead. 🤞.
Just keep cool, get em all fixed and think of the money you've not spent on bang up to date new tractors!!
Change the acuminaltor bottle on the knife pressure will help with that problem
Time to get the 1200 to step up 😂
Phil, you and Liv sit down and make a list of all the things that have gone wrong...🤔
Next to it, make a list of all the good things, that have happened recently and will happen in the near future. lm sure that will turn
a ☹️into😁
As long as the trouble is outside the door your not to bad Phil.
❤
Unfortunately looks like a gear upgrade on the cards
This weather doesn’t help I’ve wet 💦 wet 💦.Know heat wave this year.Just would like some long lasting sunshine ☀️.So so good luck 🤞.
serenity now, serenity now
Good man Phil! I see you're attracting the bots! 🤣
Good sign of the weather with the bots, they're like flies in summer!
Shows you're popular worldwide!
huh?
Loads of bots had replied about a financial "guru" about 10 mins after the video was posted. No need of VAR, a mile offside for a farming video!
Great video, Phil. And it's good to show the downside of farming life when you are trying to plan each day out . And nothing go to plan
As Van Morrison said "There will be days like this". (It doesn't help much though)
phil hard to work out this weather it keeps changing within few hours
A rough day FP but we all have days like that! Machines will always have downtime that’s life!! 😊 onwards and upwards!
Well Phil did you ever do anything with your mr2
Great video. Bad and all as the day went nobody got hurt or worse… that’s the ultimate bad day. You’ll get a crankshaft and the rest of the issues will be sorted. You’re a bit fatigued and stressed anyway with all that’s going on… you’re great to handle it all. Goes to show what Father Phil has to deal with on a daily basis… get the rest and eat well, you’ll be back on the rails again. Liv is a great backup and as is Lee, keep the chin up. Keep up the good work.
I had a day like that Phil one time we were drawing silage and right in the middle the gear box went and the shuttle wouldn't move an inch
We all understand days like that. Couldn't enjoy you struggling like that - be tough for everyone as you tried to show father Phil you would manage fine!
Phil, a bad day can always turn into an even worse day if someone was hurt or badly injured. Everyone who went out that morning came home and thats more important. Focus on the postives of what ye all achieved succesfully and it would out weigh the negatives. Remember tough times don't last, but tough people do. Great to see yourself and Liv planning the day together, family is where it is at in the end.
6480 sh2 t
Good video
Could just be the main pulley stud sheared into crank shaft? if you can get it out, might not be too bad! 🙏
Where's Lee?
If the engine is the same as in a combine… you could try Frazer manners at Alnwick (Northumberland) combine graveyard… might have an engine sitting..
Phil machinery is not the thing for you!!! Strongly think about the future..
Anyone who has been working with machines for any few years has had days like this. Don't be so negative. It will be alright in the end and if its not alright its not the end.
They all breakdown everything can't be perfect joys of running machinery.
@@seamusm84 no such thing as perfect..but the chap is stressed out.. just being observant. You have to focus on what works and doesn’t work. Too many people just doing things for the sake of it…
@@michaelmcnamara7971 not being negative.. he does a savage job.. but you always have to ask yourself about what’s down the line..
Some day. Thanks for making the video. Wasn’t easy. Tomorrow is another day
Ŕepairs or repayments story of my life
Just goes to show how much you lean on Father Phil. Not a young man to carry all that burden.
As I learned, farming is fixing😢
Sounds like black Saturday all over again 😮
Hei Phil! Everything comes with 3 is what i say all the time. From a farmer in Northern Norway😄The mchale baler must be close to 90000 bales now. Maybe time to change🤔
Not the best advertising for MF tractors
Tough times don’t last, tough people do!! Keeper lit ✊✊💥💥
Good stuff
What a day 😂
Pig of a day for you.
You got to keep Lee busy now the 1200 is done.
Hopefully things pick up, but stuff don’t break if you don’t use it
Like our own place Phil you thrive on hardship lad 😂 love your videos
