    Pete, you could make a 5 hr video of you just plowing, or just doing...farm stuff and I would watch it all the way through. Your videos are such a pleasure to watch. Relaxing, educational, and just plain GREAT! Thank you for taking the time to record, edit and upload. It really makes an enjoyable watch. Stay safe, and Hillary...great dance moves! :)

      I agree as well, I could watch a five hour video of him just talking about anything. He makes such great quality videos that are informative and educational as well as entertaining. Hillary is just a hoot to watch. They make such amazing team and great to see him building a new shop

    Pete, your rapport you have with your livestock is simply amazing. You call them and they follow is simply a testament to how you and Hillary are so kind and gentle to all of
    God's creatures. Never miss a video, really looking forward to watching the new shop being built. Take care and God bless your family.

    • @zarroth

      That is how it is on the vast majority of family farms. The fact the average farmer age is 60 now means it's in danger of disappearing. We need to counter that.

    I am 66 years old and my wife is 62 and we have been retired for 11 years. We have a 35 acre farm in Virginia. Take care kindred spirits and may your life be full of joy and love from our Creator, Jesus Christ!

    By the way, I sent you some pictures on instagram messenger of some old tractors my family and I saw on vacation. I hope you get a chance to see them.

    I cannot tell you how much I loved seeing the cows go to the winter field and chicken field (same thing?) . Not only could I see their joy but I could feel it emanating from them. That kind of joy is so easily contagious and makes me grateful for my life. Good and bad parts. I, also loved the Hillary dance! Haha You go, girl!

    @mikerussell185 13 дней назад

    Very excited to see your new shop take shape, you'll certainly make good use of it with all of your projects!
    One thing I'd suggest, is to either get yourself a forklift for the shop or design the shop so that you can accommodate a small gantry crane. Even just an A frame with a chainhoist. I've seen a lot of older men struggle with declining physical abilities as they age. They still have no shortage of desire or enthusiasm to work on their projects but those heavy pieces get to be more of a problem as you age.

  • @keithwest2575
    @keithwest2575 13 дней назад +1

    Pete, first off, glad you are feeling better. Really do appreciate your sharing both your older tractors, but also the older implements. History lessons, but also reiterating that equipment can be used for many years with the proper operation and care. Thanks for sharing. Very much appreciated. Look forward to future lessons. Take care & stay safe.

  • @JSAC66
    @JSAC66 14 дней назад +1

    Suggestion for that missing plow piece you can’t find…find a foundry and ask the neighbor if you can borrow the part long enough to have a new one cast, and have a few extra made for the neighbor and yourself.

  • @gcc3996
    @gcc3996 14 дней назад

    I've watched your videos for a few years now & have always especially appreciated your in-depth restorations. This plowing video in particular brought back memories of 60 years ago, when I was tasked with plowing a 10 acre sod field here in southwestern Ontario. However things were reversed for me - a John Deere BR was pulling a 2 bottom (old, even then) International plow. At 13 years of age I could either sit or stand while plowing; I soon discovered that while standing, it put the steering wheel spinner in direct line of a rather delicate part of one's anatomy which became very apparent when hitting a buried rock - even when it tripped as designed. Nevertheless, that 84 year old tractor - now restored - sits in my shed today. Keep those excellent videos coming.

I have started fixing old equipment in part because of your inspiration. I need to get a wood stove in my small shop this year so that I can work through the winter without freezing my hands.

    I haven't seen spring tooth harrows since we used them 60 years ago. This is part of the reason I watch your videos - nostalgia. By the way, great looking cattle. Cows are so funny at times. I used to love when they were let out in the spring after a long winter of being indoors - they were so joyous!

    Those cattle have the zoomies! Nice old tractors! Love your old equipment! My dad used to have me smear grease on the moldboards when we were done with the plow for the season. They scoured and cleaned right up when we put them in the ground the next season. Beef tenderloin on the grill. You made me hungry! Absolutely the best! Hope you only cook it to medium rare!

    I sure hope you are feeling better. I love that you drug (dragged?) that plow out of the weeds, it really looked hopeless, and you fixed it up with a few bolts, a couple welds and put it to work. (Maybe a little ore than that) I just think that is wonderful. Most people would have just put it in the junk heap. I am glad you didn't.

    I hope you feel good. I like to see the vintage machines work. A dog gone pleasure.
    Thanks. You made me hungry!

    Another great video, Pete. Lots of exciting things for sure.
    Loved Hillary's high jinks.

    I wish I could have ridden along with you and smelled that fresh turned soil! You have worked hard to have an "embaressment of riches" in the equipment department and the enjoyment you have while fixing and then working with it all, shows. The cows and even the very proper and stately dignified bulls had a fun romp in the chicken field! Simple pleasures ARE THE BEST, for man and beast. A happy farmer, happy family(yes Hillary, we saw you), happy animals make for a very happy farm video. I think you need to make a sound only app of your favorite tractor and plow working so that some of your devoted fans could fall asleep to the wonderful, lulling sound. And when can we expect the "Eau de Mechanic" and home scent beads and candles so we can have some for gifts and some to keep? Keep happy and well to all of you.

    Great video Pete! A few comments from an old guy who left the farm to my Dad and brother for a 55 year career in heavy equipment repair = Hilary wearing a t-shirt is watching you move cows while you are wearing 3 layers (?), a square head bolt is known as a 'farmer bolt', that green spray paint will help prevent another crack, did you have to put blinders on that IH tractor to get it to hitch to the JD plow?, oh how I remember the howl that went up when minimum tillage was first being espoused and the farmers were told they didn't need their mouldboard plows and 48 inch chisels. They got used to it and now they will sow winter grain right in the stubble of this years crop.
