Iowa Farm Auction... Searching for Equipment!

- Farm Auction, Fence Cleanup, and Machine Shed Update! Spence and I started getting the north fence on the main farm cleaned up. A couple days later I got the Machine Shed locked in with the builder. Spencer and I went to a local auction in Central Iowa, and I was trying to buy a really nice condition Case IH 496 Disk to use on the Corn on Corn ground, CRP, and any other touch-up spots. I thought I had the disk at $10,000 and then an older gentleman stepped in and really smacked the whip on me with the price. It got a little too high..... I had to let it go.

It’s interesting seeing how someone starts a farm from scratch
same
Yes it is
That is why I watch him
Yes sirrrrrrr it us
I can’t tell if your all haters
Cole the corn star is good but when I seen the notification I came here
i havent watched cole in so long
"I feel like we haven't gottin' anything done and don't deserve to eat lunch" lol
I used to have zyns and powerade for lunch on 14 hour tree removal days.
Spencer: pro skidsteer operator!!!
Also Spencer: Twerks in the background of the vid as grant does serious intro!🤣🤣🤣
Glad I wasn’t the only one who saw that
The amount of work Grant has put into getting this farm started cannot go unappreciated. It just can't. He is a hard working man.
Dude i am loving this content! It's so unique and its what everyone that doesn't have a farm who dreams of having one wants to see, really excited to watch your journey and follow your success
This makes me want to go buy a farm like Grant did
You work for it hard enough youll get it Derek Moore
If your smart with your money it's an easy thing to do and if your really meant to be a farmer dont worry their will always be land for you investing would be the smartest thing to do
@JerryJohn Cloud these days 200k won’t get you very much at all
@@LoganLong6620 million*
@JerryJohn Cloud $200,000 ia a way of getting started. Small Parcells or renting and using smaller used equipment and building up from there. All it takes is a dream and vision and a lender that will work with you.
I love this channel because he’s in a way teaching me a way to tackle my dream of farming
same
It’s so cool watching a farm start from scratch
We do alot of small scale farming, and guys like grant really inspire me. I want to try starting a farming youtube channel but idk
Yes do that
The most “efficient” way to remove a fence is to get a bushhog into it and watch it pulling a half mine strain of wire in before you can get it shut down.
...it’s the hour and a half you spend with bolt cutters and a torch afterward that isn’t “efficient”. Ask me how I know 🙄
🤣🤣👌🏻
If, your not going to save the wire, and poles, then just burn off everything and turn it into the salvage yard for a profit. Metals are up, is what I'm being told in Iowa.
It's trying to cut the wire out of the bearings that I find most inefficient....
Always got to watch the old timers to them its not worth the same as us if they want it they want it. Ive enjoyed watching these videos and your brothers videos starting his own farm.
I'm all in support of this man, just remember to keep your finances in check. You can get in over your head real quick. I'd also take a look at used stuff even if it's not the prettiest.
I have a suggestion you should use the enclosed trailer as kinda like a tool trailer for when stuff breaks in the field. You can also put seed bags in there as well as you can probably put a fuel tank in there to re fuel your tractor that’s what we did for the first 2 years of farming we had a rolling toolbox in there that was strapped down. It worked really well.
I can not wait to see u process through the farm I have wachted all of the videos on this channel and allot of the videos on the squad channel love the videos keep up the work in my opinion your the best tuber I know cause u don't act all fake everything is all real witch I love and u don't act like u know everything but u do know a lot of stuff
Dedicated barb wire cutter.........cordless grinder and a cut off wheel, and make sure to set charger up to charge from pickup
Never did I think I would be sitting down watching a channel about a guy starting a farm from scratch, but I'm glad I am.
I love auctions as much as your do Grant!!
I'm glad you made the right decision to scale back your building site. There are plenty of older farmers that are gonna be hanging it up on the next few years. Just keep your eyes open and you might find a real nice farm with a nice setup that is move in ready.
You should ask the neighbors to combine farms or ask to store some of your equipment in their garages until you get your farm set up and ready to go. I think it will work perfectly if your taking the fence down
As Austin, I mean Spencer, is twerking in the beginning 🤣🤣
That's Spencer but ya I was rolling
Sorry I got it wrong
Awsome video grant it so awesome that you and Spencer get along so well were you guys can do this together and enjoy the memories of doing it together keep up the good work 👏
Dude you are literally my idle. I want to start a farm of my own someday and you are just boosting my confidence.
Same, I want to become a farmer, but my family doesn't own one 😪. I'm not sure If I have the money for it in the future, but I try my best
@@jackbarker7495 if your smart with your money you can invest and if you invest well you can double your money every year.
Farming has it’s ups and downs. I’ll just say that. If you run new/newer equipment you can go into debt and lose money each year, and farming is just a big gambling game. You can get washouts and droughts and prices can go down. It gives you a lot of experience though and is a good thing to look forward to. I always had my grandpa and uncle who taught me stuff so that made my perspective on it. I couldn’t imagine starting from nothing.
SQUAD!! I racked up 100 dollars and I bought a few corn seed packers and some gardening equipment and I’m from a grow corn and sell it at the co-op
wanted to drop a quick line, and TOTALLY unrelated to the video. Was on a road trip from Pennsylvania to Missouri last week and while driving through Illinois I found a Casey's. I stopped for a some gas, a slice of pizza and a soda. and you were right their pizza is pretty darn good. Never woulda thought about it if it hadn't been for your group role play videos! Yes I have had better pizza, but for gas station pizza, it is the bomb!
Keep up the great work and do what you do best grant @The Squad ! Love watching you and your friends play fs and your real life farm! Love seeing how other people start with there farm! Have a good one! ( :
And also I can't thank you enough because we have 2 farms and we were logging the entire week and after a long and exhausting day I love coming and watching your videos! ( :
Hope all is well on your farm and family hope your all safe and can't wait to see what you bring next!YEEYEE good buddy!
GRANT YES IM SO GLAD YOU POSTED YEE YEE
congratulations Grant i have been watching you're RUclips channel for 4 years now and its good to see someone l9iving there dream
Pls pls pls film more of these i love it
Use the trees for fire wood and ashes for fertilizer
I'm the most happy when he post love ur vids bud
Just a tip from someone who’s worked on fence quite a bit, linesman pliers from harbor freight are my best friend cutting wire and building fence! May not be the “right” tool for the job but it works well.
Grant, can’t tell you how much I truly enjoy watching your videos. I hope to see more frequent uploads in the future
If they ever say "its like brand new for used equipment" --- RUN!!!
That fenceline was not in horrible shape. Hope you kept the posts as there are guys out there that will buy good used steel and wood posts and at the very least you could have taken the steel posts for scrap metal
Good job guys. Smart thinking on down size on shed. Be smart at those actions. Equipment is going high. Keep up the great work. 👍
Things are looking good guys . Nice clean job on the fence work . I like that fence puller . My days it was a tractor and chains and ropes with a axe and chain saw for cutting trees and roots . Used to use a pair of staple fence post pullers with a hammer to tap down and drive out the staples . Get a old hay wagon and load the junk right on there and you dont have to pick it up twice . Old dump truck would not be a bad investment either to load trash or scrap in .
Happy for ya man! It’s the most honest job one can have.
Even if you build a basic shop and do not plan to heat it now, I think you would benefit from at least putting in the plumbing for a water heated floor in the hard surface area since you said the other half will be gravel. Working on equipment inside of a heated shop is so much easier - and you would not have to run the heat all year round - only in the winter months if you did actually install a boiler system.
-- Also, it would add a lot of value if you eventually decide to move to another farm and sell this one.
I enjoy your videos and wish you a lot of luck.
Its nice to see someone that ties things down properly, and really good to see this start out. Plus you should have wiring set up for a camper and put in sewage so you keep your tanks clean and make it more comfortable to live in during the busy times
7:09 My uncle just bought that grain cart in the back. Love You Videos!
Love the auction videos. Great videos
Love this guy
These videos are amazing keep it up
It’s awesome to be able to follow your story along as you start out farming. Thanks for that.
Amazing
Those fence posts, not the metal ones, but the wooden ones, if they are black locust(most likely not) they will be good to reuse. I've reused 145 year old black locusts from the remains of the dairy farm I bought. Black locusts fence posts are harder than re-enforced concrete. If you don't want to use them and they are black locust they sell for $5-10 bucks a piece. More money for the budding farm.
Just a tip Grant, when at an auction, your opposing bidder will see when your unsure on if to bid and realise he's got the upper hand as you don't want to bid much higher. So be confident in your bids and bid to a curtain price and don't go higher. If you get it, you get it. If not you don't. Theres plenty stuff around.
Watching all the way from South Africa......🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
The auction was great content TY, more auctions plz
Grant, did you happen to notice what Spencer was doing in the background during the first 9 seconds of the video?🤣
Yesss, only after editing tho
Working mans job is an honest job and it may get tough but I call it living the dream
You should add radiant tubbing in the new shop floor incase you ever do decide to put other stuff in because radiant floor heating you can never go wrong with plus if you do ever sell that land the shop is set up for heat
Thanks for sharing your experience on starting a farm from scratch.
Spencer throwing it back at the beginning sheeeeshhhhhh
Amazing! I love watching you start a farm! I hope you love it and keep up the good work!
Loved keep it up and can’t wait to watch your plant love the videos
Also being on a farm when you get a planter that can do it No till is way better for soil health and soil health is a key to raising good crops the soil is living a bunch of microorganisms so when you can get a no till planter and really read into and focus on soil health
Never let down grant man always come through love the vid
Keep it up grant, all yur vids are very interesting and I never click on a vid so fast!
Love the video 👍🏻
He should make a series/TV show on RUclips TV your content is awesome man.
Exciting to see the equipment buying and field prepping! Can’t wait for planting to start
Not sure if you saw my comment on your Old Dually Ford vid, but You inspired my channel Grant! I am so grateful! Thanks man!
Love the video's Grant would love to keep following your story keep it up.
The fact that you are going to be a first generation farmer is awesome! Can’t wait to see what will come in the next year!
I love the videos keep it up you and Spencer are my favorite RUclipsrs
2:00 Hi Spence! Did you ever hear of fencing pliers? Pretty handy! Funny joke too lol I'm Inspired by what you guys are doing. Thanks for sharing it!
I'm going through watching all these clips so far I hope they get longer. 20-1/2hr
Went to jm wood auction this Saturday and I won the bid for a j&m grain cart. And thanks for the video advice ! And at that auction they had some 26 foot case ih disk that retail at 15k go for 2500 which me
And this old timer was bidding for them at the end of the day I just didn’t wanna go past my budget ! And you should check out jm wood auction in June in Alabama they have everything !!! And some of it you can get for next to nothing
Really interesting video and your journey. Good luck. Im hooked.
This is so exciting to follow your journey of your first farm
Best person ever im proud of you man
Grant you are at the top of my favorite RUclipsr list
Good hold. I could tell watching you wanted that disc but glad to see you hold your ground, always wait for the deal you’re comfortable with
just found this channel and i started grinding watching all your videos when i realized that the kobuta skid steer is the same model you "demoed" in fs19 in nebraska rp
Yesss, I was anticipating an new video to come out!
Great vid Grant! I hate that about the auction but there is more equipment out there. crazy what you are doing man and how well you are doing it starting your own farm and all. I’m a farmer myself, I’m the 6th generation on my family’s, family farm in North Carolina and looking to take over someday. Best of luck brother and keep up the great content!
Great video grant 👍
Finally something that made my day
You will never regret buying a reliable skid steer. They will always cone in handy. I hope it lasts you a long time. If you want to have a lot of fun, get a mulcher for it!
Yes, am considering renting one!
This is the way young boy becomes a man, good parents, lots of love and good ole fashioned hard work.
I love the thrill of auctions!! Keep it up from another newbie in NE IA
Thanks for your videos. They are really cool.
Well, I am from Germany and here is one hour like half a day away. USA is crazy :)
I’ve watched from the first vid on this channel I can’t wait to see you become a great farmer grant
Nice vid!
We have a shed that's half concrete and half dirt and my advice would be pour it all concrete because were probably never going to get that thing poured fully.
Love it
We have a 60x120 Morton buildings shed. It is very nice, although it is all cold storage with crushed concrete. I highly recommend the crushed concrete. It’s a lot nicer than you may think. Just a recommendation, Grant.
Great work on the farm !!! Been waiting for this for a while
cant wait to see how much different these videos will be in the upcoming months/ keep it up grant :)
Hey grant how are you I am sorry you did not get the disc you wanted.Keep up the good work on the videos and everything.
Just stumbled on your channel ... great job!
He had a good start from yt I started at nothing it takes a long time first year is the hardest good luck just make sure you have money to back if its a loss
I want more of Spencer dancing!
Just watched the auction video from Millennial Farmer. Cool to see another another auction video. I was hoping you were gonna upload soon as ive been watching your FS videos for a couple years and i think its super cool you got your own farm and do real farming vids now.
Hahaha I watched his too. I probably watch like everyone of his vids!
I would head on over to the Pocahontas Auction if you get a chance next time they have a sale. Usually have a large variety of equipment from old to new there and just about anything you would ever need!
I think they just had a auction right? I remember seeing it online like last week. I wonder when the next one is.
@@granthilbert5632 April 14th I think.
Let’s go, another post. Keep up the good work. I have been waiting for your next post for a long time it feels like. This series is really interesting to me.
It’s so cool watching a farm start from scratch Nice
Small bolt cutters are the way to go for cutting fence wire !
