    Hi Adrian
    Just thought for future expansion
    all the times I’ve had to put in water pipe or electric that might be covered with concrete I’ve put it in ductwork then if you get a leak in a pipe just attach the new to the old and pull it through if you are changing direction like T joint put in a inspection pit
    And when the pipe gets nearer the surface put a good insulation round the pipe
    Looking forward to spring seeing the cows outside all the best to you and your family

    Great video Adrian, your a credit to Farming, it would be great if you could show more of the non farming community how hard it is, its not all about driving around on a tractor, its a way of life and you have to love it to do it, mind it does not make it easy to love, water pipe is high, not much you can do with that its got to lowered its even to high to isolate, is there any way you could reroute round the outside of the farm buildings rather than dig up the forecourt that way you could work with what you have till you had it ready to couple up, any way as I always say everyone has an idea, very enjoyable Adrian keep up the good work

    Adrain, your grab looks to be benching to one side. Same as what ours did. The blade at the side eventually took lumps out of the steel that holds the 1st prong. We reinforced around where side of the grab is hinged with a bit of it's own steel plate and it seems to have sorted the issue. Also seems to cut alot better now as well. When ya think about it, it's a really weak stop when it's under hydraulic pressure.
    I marked up a pic to show ya where but can't seem to share pics here.

  • @keithk1246
    @keithk1246 Год назад +1

    As others have mentioned it's better take a block out miss nearly the width of a block so that each ram is under the same pressure when cutting out. If you work from right to left the left is doing the work and the right is working light. Similar to a twin ram linkbox which can bend rams if lifting on one corner. Don't think it'll do much harm.

      We cope because for farmers it's just another normal day. In farming you can sit down in the evening and plan tomorrow out, but when tomorrow comes most of the time everything you have planned goes down the toilet, and you have to do everything you can, eighvin if it means working 18 hour days to get through the day and get the work done.

    Can't understand how they laid that pipe that height, anyone with an ounce of sense knows that a pipe that high I always going to suffer from the frost. Additionally in the summer if it's that high it will be affected by the concrete heating up, which could lead to other risks like legonela.

The tractor switches over to the disc mower in the summer and maintains the paddocks which is a vital job. It’s just more versatile for us but yes Skid steers are very handy
