I’m a proud disabled vet, I push myself hard and often overdo it but I just can’t sit back and let someone do it for me, I have to try, I really admire all the stuff you do yourself instead of simply buying it, awesome video sir 👍😁❤️
Chain link fence with some old bags of hard concrete or whatever heavy stuff you have laying around is what's worked for me over the years. Thanks for all the content! Another bonus to having a dedicated (anything)... It keeps you from repurposing your repurposed item for what it was made for
Another useful tool! I 100% agree with using our brains to create, puzzle things out, and challenge ourselves as a way to maintain our abilities. Way to go bro!
Haha….thanks! Just poking a bit at the insanity we are living in right now🤪. Of course I’m sure I’ll be attacked by some of the woke mob that don’t understand the difference of what may be acceptable at an adult establishment….versus what’s being pushed on kids.
Another great video Joe. Thank you for sharing this with us. Wyndy seems to be settling down into domestication. Now that the theater metal has been consumed you are going to need another source for salvaged metals. When I first saw version 2, I though you were using railroad spikes. Do the flat rods accomplish what you need or would conical tips be a better solution. Wishing you and your family a blessed week filled with gentle seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings. Peace brother
@@catgynt9148 thank you! Yes I considered doing pointed/conical tips on the rods, but figured theyd wear too quickly. So I figured I see how the flat worked first. Plus, I was being lazy and didn’t want to grind them down😉
This is at least the 2nd time that I have watched this project since it came out. Part of the reason is that I'm looking for a way to "discourage" weeds and the 2nd part could be the answer. I did notice that it did remove at least part of the weeds. Note that a tractor tire, fence or bed spring may not as well. It looks like the "pins" tend to dig in a bit and/or shear the weeds off. One of the reasons that I watch and re-watch your videos is that you think things thru and do Great work. Thank you for all the fantastic videos you have made for us. I wish I could like the video each time I watch it but at least the algorithm counts it as another view.
@@LaraLovesBees haha…no, I’ll have to pass on that one😂. And you’re right that we live in a society where people are getting offended by seemingly anything and everything. But I do think there are some things that may be fine for an adult audience that would not be appropriate for the developing mind of a child. Anyways, hope that made sense. You may or may not agree and that’s okay too😉👍
Joe, I don’t come here for cheap and dirty builds, I love your projects even though I’ll never make 99% of them, I still love watching for the inspiration and the goats, always the goats and Olive #staypawsitive Michelle🇦🇺
Really great projects. I’m sorry to see you are getting to the bottom of your drive inn steel pile. When you have the time and ability to make stuff is always a plus. I was surprised the pins stayed in during the dragging but the yellow painter tops seemed like a great idea for that. Thanks for sharing and loved the goat zombies at the beginning!
Thank you! Yeah those little goats get playful right at the end of the day so I figured it’d make for a cute backdrop to my intro. And also….yes I’m sad that stew is getting close to being all finished. There are quite a few little cut off pieces but the longer ones are pretty much done.
Very clever built! I need something like this and got some great ideas from you. I fully agree that doing it your own way helps your mind and keeps you balanced.
I watched your video again and on the last drag you made the back angle iron if you welded it on a 45 angle the finish dirt or gravel will be a lot better, if that makes sense. I did that to my drag....I copied it from a pro built drag. It's amazing how good these things work. They do a great job.
LOL LOL "Drag show!" Looking forward to seeing Monsoon season and some good storms. Can you give us some good footage of the water being collected around your property this summer?
😂🙏. And yes, I’m planning to try and do a bit more with regard to getting more rainwater content this year. We normally go camping for about 2 weeks right in the middle of monsoons and I end up missing out on the good daytime rains. But this year we are postponing that camping until after Marley’s Mustang challenge in September. So hopefully I’ll be home and not at work on some of the bigger rain days.
I had to downsize & move 5 years ago. I tried to keep at least a few scraps of metal for projects, but over 20,000 pounds of random metal parts went to recycling yard at a nickel a pound. Some items had been purchased at several dollars a pound. Very sad looking back!😖😟 I am now 81 & still do projects, but have more ideas than stamina. Building a 20X48 ft "tiny home" with/for daughter. Made our own trusses & had to build a machine to assemble with 6X8 inch mending plates like used on commercial made trusses. Also "gin pole" cranes to raise the 50 foot ridge beam. I love making things I have imagined & designed. I think I will copy & build your project if we can fit it in between completing my other projects. 👍👍👍👍👌👌❤ to you!
as always, *so sweet!* 😎👍 the only improvement i can think of is to sharpen the pin ends...oh yeah, and you could put springs on them, rather than relying on the small mass of the pin.
Thanks Douglas! As for sharpening the pin ends, I wondered about that…but kinda thought they’d wear down too quick. Plus I didn’t want to grind them all to tips😂…. So I figured I’d try this first and see how they wore
Very NICE! I was reminded of one of the old piano player machines while watching the pins pop up and down in the harrow as it was being pulled. If it starts making music you and the horse can form a band. jk..jk Fantastic job.
Boy Joe, your homestead is becoming quite the ranch...lol You never disappoint with your project builds...No aluminum this time but the homestead gray made an appearance.😊
Nice work, love your ingenuity. Instead of weight plates, consider using used brake discs. Also heavy, usually repair shops have some around and they are happy to get rid of them.
Always enjoy your videos. If i might make a suggestion, get some jack chain to the pins so if you hit something hard like a rock or root and it pops out, or if you pick it up and lift over too far the pins don't get lost.
Perfect timing for me to see this vid. I too enjoy building my own things, kind of our own content creators! Ill be removing rocks from a lawn in various sizes, the fence would be ideal , but I will be planting in the spring so I'm going to go ahead and turn the dirt now, and hit it again right before throw out some seeds. I may not make the teeth as aggressive as you have, maybe little thinner for me. I seen one a guy used a metal grate that you walk on for outside stair towers and he just welded 1/2" rod to it. I do have a welder but I wouldnt trust my welds with a baby. I also see if it's used much those rods will wear out, and its over so lets just make them replaceable. Damn it boy just had a thought, turn trash into tools. Ill see if i can remember and give you an update on it. If you have any other Lawn tool idea's you may have ,( You mind sharing some)? If you have hard compacted dirt that dynamite wont break up, and that you have to hand dig( Red Clay ) I have you a fix for it. If you have a concrete chipping hammer tool , well just weld an old shovel head to a bit. Anyway Thanks for the info.
An old single bed spring with weight on top makes a decent drag. Used one for 2 years when I rented a house with a 1/2 mile long driveway. Loved that house but the owner decided to tear out the grove and in MN that made it to hard to heat in winter(on the prairie...)
I love this! It's exactly what I've been looking for to prep food plots around my property. Unfortunately, I don't have that innate ability to throw things together from the ideas I come up with. Any chance you could/would pass on the measurements for the 1st pull-behind drag?
I’m doing a box drag similar like your second design but using rebar for the pins and locked into place with a pointed set bolt. I want to be able to lift the entire drag with a winch like a three point hitch.
Any thoughts on adding an adjustable top bar over the pins and a compression spring on each pin for tougher ground situations such as fire break maintenance ? Some old value springs from an engine come to mind . Great project &video.
Great job! If you have any inkling to create another arena-type implement, I have been trying unsuccessfully to find some sort of prototype for a rock screen to either drag behind my ATV or behind my arena groomer pulled by my ATV. I need something to pick up the smallish rocks surfacing in my arena, yet allow the sand to screen through. A plus would be some sort of hinge or way to dump the rocks out. I may just be dreaming. 😢
I would have added a hanging chain harrow to both of your creations (within the frame and would still allow the first harrow to be lifted easily, although a little heavier). Especially the first one. The second one, I would add springs of the appropriate strength, to the top of all the pins (rods) attached to a frame at the top. Also, to make transportation easier on the second, you could add a coupler to the drawbar of the harrow to lift it enough that it doesn't drag. When working, the chain works well I think. Just some ideas and based upon my experience of growing up on a farm and seeing implements on a daily basis.
Haha…. Well, that could describe lots of people. But more so of my desire to hopefully maintain a sharp mind as I get older. And btw….I’m still trying to figure out what I want to do when I grow up🤪
At some point when you aren't busy with other stuff (ha!) maybe could you do a couple walkthroughs? Overall farm, fire break zone, and (my favorite) water systems. 😁
Just a quick thought for you…. The angle iron at the front of 2nd drag that has all the pipes and rods across the front of it…. Where it welds to the angle irons on the left and right side of the Gannon box …. Perhaps if it were a half inch higher the whole thing would work more like the way you want it to…. I.e. the back angle iron bar catching the material that the rods shake loose and then smoothing it out as you go…
Great project (all versions)!! I just wondered if you thought you'd get better performance if you'd of put the Ver. #2 pins on the BACK of your square box, vice the front? Good thing you don't paint your projects a desert sand color... you'd never find them! LOL Thanks Joe!
Yeah, the tan would blend in very quick…haha. As for the pins… my original thought was that the front would agitate and the back would kinda smooth it. But it very well might work fine on that back too
Glad to hear it! But no, it’s the same canon m50 that I’ve been using for the last year or two. I also use a t7i but find myself grabbing this one more because it’s smaller and more convenient
Those pins that are slotted into the pipe - if they were ground down to a conical tip - do you think they would be more likely to dig slightly deeper into the ground at each pass? The benefit being that you'd need to do less passes.
Just two different versions I wanted to try. The teeth in thr first one will likely be relegated to just the round pen and softer areas, as the teeth would likely wear down quickly on my harder ground. So that is where the pins come in…, as they wear down I can simply cut more and slip them in.
You need to hold the pins down with springs.. They will still "give" if they hit something solid but should provide enough down force to loosen the first few inches of the soil instead of just bouncing around... Just a thought...
It’s mostly to allow the pins to adjust with the ground topography. But also because I have large sections of granite that partially protrude on my property. So the pin is able to adjust and not hook hard onto something where it’d put undue stress on the quad at the hitch point. Plus it’d keep me from flying forward🤪
Just by trial and error mostly. But also, by doing research on the thing I’m interested in. Internet, friends, mentors like moms and dads, etc,…. But when push comes to shove, it’s just about getting my hands dirty and figuring it out. I’ve made lots of mistakes along the way but eventually you’ll be surprised by what you know and can do after a good bit of tinkering on things. Thanks for checking it out😊🙏
LOL, a "drag show", Homesteadonomics-style. Well done, and if it could have been done more easily with tires on a bit of fence, that wouldn't have made an interesting video.

Just by trial and error mostly. But also, by doing research on the thing I’m interested in. Internet, friends, mentors like moms and dads, etc,….
But when push comes to shove, it’s just about getting my hands dirty and figuring it out. I’ve made lots of mistakes along the way but eventually you’ll be surprised by what you know and can do after a good bit of tinkering on things. Thanks for checking it out😊🙏

😂🙏 Yeah, it’s hard to beat an old section of fence or tires for the utility of it. But you know I like to tinker on these kinda things 🤪
@@homesteadonomics And we like to watch you tinker!
