Pete--I rarely comment, but the camera work and storytelling in this video is out of this world. Thanks for putting this together and sharing it. Amazing work!
Pete, how did you know there would be so many people that would enjoy watching you cut hay? :) You're an excellent RUclipsr and story teller. Thank you for sharing the simple things with us!
Enjoyed your video very much Mr. Pete I personally cannot stand the sound of a Farmall tractor or an international but you do get kudos from me for the manner in which you keep all those old tractors running so well blessings upon you Pete have a great summer see you soon
That beautiful MD! I remember riding on my grandfather's lap as a 6 year old in the early 50s while he mowed and raked hay with his M in Carroll county Maryland. I could smell the hay just watching you. Thanks for the memories.
I know the 756 is the workhorse, Pete but jeepers... that MD sure looked beautiful just gliding through the field...all shiny like a new pin. You did such a good job on restoring her. I can't wait to see the next project. 😍
It is somehow comforting to see farming done like my grandfather did it in the 1960's. Nothing was filmed back then so your channel brings back the memories. Love you grandpa Lawrence and grandma Annie....
Outstanding video Pete! The MD is gorgeous! That was the tractor of choice for many of the farmers where I grew up in York and Lancaster Counties, PA! It was a "ton" of work you put in-and how satisfying! The interface and multi-tasking shooting this video was awesome, never mind the editing!! You've really come a long way! Kudos on a job well done!
Especially if you're preparing for the first cut - it always feels like that. You do the best you can and then pray everything works. And then it doesn't, at some point, inevitably 😂
You are the only one I’ve EVER subscribed to. I’m 64 years old and some of my fondest memories are spending time on my grandparents farm in WV. They raised thirteen kids on that farm and they never went hungry. I’ll keep watching, reminds me of times of a closer family unit, fewer distractions, chores to do.
That HAS to feel so good getting back on the tractor and cutting hay. The change from winter routine, into the holdover of early spring and then getting into the swing of summer. 🤗🙋. I felt my heart pick up the pace just thinking about it. ☺️. Have a great day!
The video was all pro, Pete. From the 4k to the rocket lift off audio to the drone footage to the editing; one doesn't have to be a Farmall fan to appreciate this video. Notwithstanding the MD is just a work of art that runs like a champ. Thanks for all the great content, been with you since the early days of your channel.
Pete, it was a pleasure meeting you at the farmer’s market this past weekend. It was well worth the 4 hour trip to support you and get your high quality product. Hope to make it back soon!
Loved this video. Excellent footage and great concept for displaying the haybine at work. The high resolution really brings out the detail in things like the dandelion heads as they get chopped up and scattered in the breeze.
If my dear former farmer father were still alive, he'd be right beside me to get the same joy from your wunnerful videos, Pete!!! Your imagination and creative juices were flowing abundantly in this great capturing of cutting hay!!! Thanks so much for sharing your gentle adventures with us!!!! ;o)
What a delight! The overhead shots of you navigating the turns and curves reminded me of a ballet. I said: "oh! The MD sounds like she's workin' hard." about 5 seconds b4 you did! (I like being right) So satisfying that you were able squeeze that final wedge of the first field in one pass. And the Mission Control theme was perfect....though for the first 2-3 minutes I was waiting for "Houston, we have a problem..." 😁 Thank you, Pete!!!!
When you said "She's working hard." All I could hear was my uncle talking about our 66 series IH's we have, and how they're built to run. That MD is doing what it's built for. (Maybe a bit more so with that haybine.) But she did it!
Enjoyed this having grown up with this era of equipment. Especially enjoyed being safely run over by a tractor; the fresh air and scent of newly mown hay. Seeing it from the air was fun. Thanks 🙏
Pete, your aerospace intro and ending were interesting and that is another reason your channel is so fun to watch. The quality of your videos are enhanced by your editing, composition and drone shots. Question: why do you leave the chicken tractors extending into the hay field so far?
You have outdone yourself with the video, audio, and editing on this one. You often mention how you strive to keep learning and trying new skills. It is clear that you practice what you preach. Hope you enjoyed making it as much as we enjoyed watching it.
Thanks Pete. Brings back fond memories of when I used to cut hay with for a friend of mine. Spent many hours on the seat of a 756 pulling that same haybine. It may have been hot and dusty. But it was still pure enjoyment. Thanks. I enjoy the channel
Awesome video! Watching the MD working in the field is a thing of beauty! This is one of my favorite videos that you’ve done. Oh and the drone shots were spectacular I might add!!! Thanks for sharing Pete.
Sitting here on my 14 acres in W Pa. 18 miles from Pgh. watching you in your Pitt t-shirt cutting hay. Not many people have the view, blue skies, fluffy clouds, fresh clean air in their work place. The drone footage was spectacular. Heaven on earth.
Oh Pete bringing back memories of my grandad on his farm… late 50’s doing same thing… now I think “my his body earned its rest!”.. just like yours did today. I always loved to run in the field to catch up with him and his tractor.. great video 😊
We are retired farmers & love watching everything you & Hillary do on the farm. We know how challenging & also how rewarding it can be. Love this video & your channel, how cool!!!
When you are on the MD going down the road to get to the pasture, It feels like we are right there on the tractor driving it. So happy you use a drone to show the cutting of the field.
Hi Pete. Congratulations on your success. I love your channel as it is both interesting and educational. I'm a wannabe and my wife and I just bought 40 acres in Ohio and are about 10 years behind you but are excited to finally get started. Thanks for all the good info. Mark
Watching from Brisbane Australia! Love watching Hillary and Pete! Pete always puts those extra few yards in to make his videos different and exciting and informative! ❤
Hey Pete I have been watching your channel for a while now. Loved the MD restoration and really all of your videos, and I must admit this is a gem! I appreciate all the time and thought you put into structuring your content and editing your videos and the light you shine on farming and food production.
The 756 looks like she is doing good work for you, overall it seems like a good purchase so far, will this one be your next rebuild project some future winter?
This is one of the best examples of why I love your videos. I apologize for not commenting on your videos in a while. I have been watching you on my television and can't comment. Just know I am still here, and when I do you get 2 thumbs up because the t v is in Lisa's utube.
My wife was on the phone with my daughter and she asked what I was doing, the wife says "watching some guy on RUclips cut grass". She told my wife I really needed to get out more. 🤣 Too hot to go fishing today and for some weird reason as a non-farmer/rancher I really enjoy these types of videos.
I love watching you run the hay bine because it reminds me of a giant push mower. I think you also have a sickle bar mower, I'd love to see a video where you talk about your opinions on which system works best for you. I'd love to run a drum mower because they seem really easy to maintain and are supposedly very fuel efficient but my poor old Ford 8n doesn't have the hydraulic power or hp to run most of the drum mowers I've researched. Btw I really like how your videography style has developed over the years and really enjoy your view and sense of humor.
Very unique and a great video Pete!! I liked being able to see all the operations of the hay bine at the same time. What did you think of the performance of the MD? Have a great day
How enjoyable it was to watch you quietly cut hay and enjoy your day. :) Thank you for sharing that way, it was indeed a pleasure. It's the simple things that are the best things in life, I really do believe that.
Love the new introduction and music. The four different views was fun, too. First hay down! Good job! I was wondering if you had to take down fences to mow it?
Great opening and as usual a great video. Cool using launch sound track. The NBC peacock was a nice touch. Also why do cows have hooves? Because they LACTOES.
That was fun Pete, and I'm sure it was for you also.. The bigger tractor is obviously more powerful and gets more work done in an hour. I'm sure you are happy with that purchase. The tractor you rebuilt is a thing of beauty and certainly runs great, but the added power is eveident, just watching. Who does the video work (air views) while you are running the tractors? Greta video... JR
My grandson is two years old, he loves tractors so much he watches them on RUclips, and he set and watched your video with me today watching you drive your tractor cutting hay. He loved it, he got so excited watching it cut the hay and all he could say was Pete, tractor and bye bye lol. Thanks for making his day and mine I love old tractors and love how you are restoring them and giving them life again.
Pete - haven't seen the 504 in a while! I just finished rebuilding the Zenith carb on my 504 and used your video each step of the way. Random question - what kind of loader is on your 504? Looking to add one to mine at some point. Thanks and keep up the great channel!
Pete--I rarely comment, but the camera work and storytelling in this video is out of this world. Thanks for putting this together and sharing it. Amazing work!
Same. Well put Chad.
I was about to comment the same thing I thougg of it about 2 and a half minutes into the video
I agree with you Chad. The video is awesome.
ditto. that was so fun and imaginative presentation.
Excellent work on all fronts.
I use to love cutting hay. That was my favorite part of the process.
NASA has nothing on Pete. He could likely build a space shuttle out of a couple of 45 gallons drums and duct tape. Great episode.
Probably 2 space shuttles :)
I would trust any tractor that Pete has worked on… even in space!
Amen! Lol
@Dar Knappster Maybe he could, but I'd like to know if he could fix my Planet killing "Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator" 👽
@@abergynolwyn4247 Oooo that makes me so mad. LOL!!!
Pete, how did you know there would be so many people that would enjoy watching you cut hay? :) You're an excellent RUclipsr and story teller. Thank you for sharing the simple things with us!

This is farm art. The only way to make it better would be to feel the sun and smell the hay. They all come together with memories.
Very Good. Pete!
Amen and Amen to that!
I started the video, paused it, mowed my lawn, opened the windows and started it back up again. Almost like being there.
There’s no click bait titles on this channel! 13 minutes of just hay cutting! Love it haha
I'll bet your dad would enjoy runnin' the MD for a day. He'd appreciate all the work you two put into bringing the ol' girl back to her former glory.
I just love the way that the old Farmalls sound when you shift them in to high gear out on the road!!! It has that whine that you never forget!!
I never really considered watching someone cutting hay would be so entertaining; Great camera work & salute to you Pete!
Who knew cutting hay was so fascinating! You should get an award for all your camera angles and drone shots!
Your editing has gotten so good over the last year. Your videos are entertaining and informative.
What a feeling of accomplishment to mow hay with the MD after having rebuilt it with your own hands. Great work!!!
That beautiful MD! I remember riding on my grandfather's lap as a 6 year old in the early 50s while he mowed and raked hay with his M in Carroll county Maryland. I could smell the hay just watching you. Thanks for the memories.

Pete your videos have some of the best humor around, stay awesome
It is somehow comforting to see farming done like my grandfather did it in the 1960's. Nothing was filmed back then so your channel brings back the memories. Love you grandpa Lawrence and grandma Annie....
What an epic cinematographic masterpiece! The characters, the dialogue directing, the editing! The producing! All in living color!
The sound of that MD working hard brings back SO many memories! And that million dollar smile on your face says it all, no description needed!
3 minutes into this episode…. HANDS DOWN YOUR BEST PETE! Love it sir!
Setting up a few dozen shots on field one: It takes twice as long to mow.
Having fun making hay in the sunshine: Priceless.
Outstanding video Pete! The MD is gorgeous! That was the tractor of choice for many of the farmers where I grew up in York and Lancaster Counties, PA! It was a "ton" of work you put in-and how satisfying! The interface and multi-tasking shooting this video was awesome, never mind the editing!! You've really come a long way! Kudos on a job well done!
I honestly like the beginning with "the space launch." I think alot of people feel the same when starting up their tractor for work.
Especially if you're preparing for the first cut - it always feels like that. You do the best you can and then pray everything works. And then it doesn't, at some point, inevitably 😂
Love the video quality and effects. First cut is the best day.
You are the only one I’ve EVER subscribed to. I’m 64 years old and some of my fondest memories are spending time on my grandparents farm in WV. They raised thirteen kids on that farm and they never went hungry. I’ll keep watching, reminds me of times of a closer family unit, fewer distractions, chores to do.
Thanks so much Victor!
@@JustaFewAcresFarm Give Hillary, a hug for me, and I expect her to hug you back. Lol . God bless you and your family, farm on. I’ll be watching.
Man that MD looks and runs like new, top quality restoration! You got to love a Farmall ! I’m glad to see you give all your tractors equal attention.
Loved the music and the addition of the 4 screen view. A creative way to show us again the cutting of hay.
I love the overhead shots. It really helped me understand the orientation of haybine in relation to the tractor pulling it.
The MD sounds so good pulling the hay bine. I'm so glad it's not just a show queen. Thanks for a great video.
Great camera work and editing, awesome to see the 'new' tractors working hard
That HAS to feel so good getting back on the tractor and cutting hay. The change from winter routine, into the holdover of early spring and then getting into the swing of summer. 🤗🙋. I felt my heart pick up the pace just thinking about it. ☺️. Have a great day!

I love seeing these old tractors restored and at work!
Pete, it was a pleasure meeting you at the farmer’s market this past weekend. It was well worth the 4 hour trip to support you and get your high quality product. Hope to make it back soon!
Pete's there every Saturday. That is so cool you got to meet Pete there at the market.
Loved this video. Excellent footage and great concept for displaying the haybine at work. The high resolution really brings out the detail in things like the dandelion heads as they get chopped up and scattered in the breeze.
Good morning Pete and Hillary hope you guys have a blessed day. We enjoy watching your videos and DAD jokes.
One of your best videos.
Excellent video. You've outdone yourself on editing and composition. And those overhead drone shots are 👌
If my dear former farmer father were still alive, he'd be right beside me to get the same joy from your wunnerful videos, Pete!!! Your imagination and creative juices were flowing abundantly in this great capturing of cutting hay!!! Thanks so much for sharing your gentle adventures with us!!!! ;o)
Really interesting and different approach to filming and editing. Still can feel the 1970ish vibe and I love it.
What a delight!
The overhead shots of you navigating the turns and curves reminded me of a ballet.
I said: "oh! The MD sounds like she's workin' hard." about 5 seconds b4 you did! (I like being right)
So satisfying that you were able squeeze that final wedge of the first field in one pass.
And the Mission Control theme was perfect....though for the first 2-3 minutes I was waiting for "Houston, we have a problem..." 😁
Thank you, Pete!!!!
You forgot to turn in your microphone🤣🤣. I really enjoy these videos every so often with no talking, just grass getting cut and the tractor running!
When you said "She's working hard." All I could hear was my uncle talking about our 66 series IH's we have, and how they're built to run. That MD is doing what it's built for. (Maybe a bit more so with that haybine.) But she did it!
MD looking so fine. Great job Pete.
Enjoyed this having grown up with this era of equipment. Especially enjoyed being safely run over by a tractor; the fresh air and scent of newly mown hay. Seeing it from the air was fun. Thanks 🙏

Brilliant work and how satisfying it must be to see it cut.
You have outdone yourself with the video, audio, and editing on this one. You often mention how you strive to keep learning and trying new skills. It is clear that you practice what you preach. Hope you enjoyed making it as much as we enjoyed watching it.
Love how quickly field number two got done!
Best time ever on a farm is cutting, raking and baling hay! The MD has the greatest sound idling or loaded. Very clever intro and ending!
Thanks Pete. Brings back fond memories of when I used to cut hay with for a friend of mine. Spent many hours on the seat of a 756 pulling that same haybine. It may have been hot and dusty. But it was still pure enjoyment. Thanks. I enjoy the channel
There is something very soothing about the mower sound. That’s for keeping it long, Pete.
A farmer and a artist! What style to this video! Thanks for another video!
Awesome video! Watching the MD working in the field is a thing of beauty! This is one of my favorite videos that you’ve done. Oh and the drone shots were spectacular I might add!!! Thanks for sharing Pete.
Love how you integrated the aerospace lingo into the intro/exit, very clever
Sitting here on my 14 acres in W Pa. 18 miles from Pgh. watching you in your Pitt t-shirt cutting hay.

Thanks Alice!
You've outdone yourself Pete! Outstanding recording and editing and you're are clearly having allot of fun doing it all.
I really enjoyed the day on the two tractors mowing hay . Thanks for the ride alone. Great entertainment.
Loved the drone shot. Do more if you can.
Remember when you had to lease a helicopter, hire a pilot and a cameraman?
When you are on the MD going down the road to get to the pasture, It feels like we are right there on the tractor driving it. So happy you use a drone to show the cutting of the field.
Fantastic job on the editing and production. A new high for you Pete!
Brought back memories of when I cut hay with the 986 and discbine.
Good stuff.
NIce to see both tractors out in the field working. Lots of hay being done here in Arkansas, too... Window's over here tomorrow, rain tomorrow night.
now that's an intro! ....that's a smart man ''outstanding'' in his field...
Pete it's always satisfying to watch you in the morning while drinking coffee hopefully your going to do video of the entire hay making process
I could just watch that all day. As a matter of fact I have been watching this exact process all week on my farm!
Fancy editing work Pete!!
Hi Pete. Congratulations on your success. I love your channel as it is both interesting and educational. I'm a wannabe and my wife and I just bought 40 acres in Ohio and are about 10 years behind you but are excited to finally get started. Thanks for all the good info. Mark
You had me at liftoff!
What an awesome video. You're getting good at this Pete 👏👏👏👏
Music perfect, editing perfect, just a lot of fun to watch 👌
oddly satisfying for sure. Nothing like watching somebody do something with the proper equipment. Thanks for posting this - cut on, Pete.
Watching from Brisbane Australia! Love watching Hillary and Pete! Pete always puts those extra few yards in to make his videos different and exciting and informative! ❤
Good to see the fruits of your labor with the MD and even better to see the 756 at work
Hey Pete I have been watching your channel for a while now. Loved the MD restoration and really all of your videos, and I must admit this is a gem! I appreciate all the time and thought you put into structuring your content and editing your videos and the light you shine on farming and food production.
The fancy filming while farming with the Farmall was fantastic and fun Family, farming and fellowship with friends forever.
The 756 looks like she is doing good work for you, overall it seems like a good purchase so far, will this one be your next rebuild project some future winter?
I could definitely smell that fresh cut hay and remember simpler times. Thanks Pete!
I’m jealous. I’ve been trying to cut hay for 3 weeks and I can’t get enough dry days in a row to make it work. Loved the camera work on this one.
Same here first cutting is going to be heavy
This is one of the best examples of why I love your videos. I apologize for not commenting on your videos in a while. I have been watching you on my television and can't comment.

She told my wife I really needed to get out more. 🤣
Too hot to go fishing today and for some weird reason as a non-farmer/rancher I really enjoy these types of videos.
Simpler times. America was built doing what Pete and Hillary are doing. Big government is slowly, destroying that .
That 756 sound amazing. It doesn’t skip a beat. Thanks for sharing.

Very unique and a great video Pete!! I liked being able to see all the operations of the hay bine at the same time. What did you think of the performance of the MD? Have a great day
Hi Steven, the MD handled the haybine well. It was nice to hear her engine really working at it.
@@JustaFewAcresFarm and that was good for the MD to work like that. That will help break it in👍✌️
Gotta say best I’ve seen on utube

That poor sickle reciprocates at a punishing speed. What a design! And a mature design, admirable.
Good video Pete!
the drone shots are amazing
So relaxing to watch you cut hay! And that MD is so nice to hear purr too.
I loved this video , great filming , i hope your all well :-)
Loved the drone video of your farm so beautiful Loved the 1960s music very satisfying video thank you for sharing
Great opening and as usual a great video. Cool using launch sound track. The NBC peacock was a nice touch. Also why do cows have hooves? Because they LACTOES.
More than 50 years ago but haying still brings a satisfying smile to me.

Thanks for the filming. Brings me back to the days of my youth. I loved watching haying.
Now that you have the horsepower to run one, you'll have to get a disc mower. The 756 will easily run a 9 footer

Sure looks like a pretty day for cutting hay.
amazing how fast that 2nd field was cut . you absolutely have the magical touch .
