    No wonder Shane can do magic with machinery he’s been working with tools since he was two years old. He would come to my house and say (Aunt Bunny) do you have a radio or any I can pull apart and put back together. He was such a cutie and still is.. so proud of this young man..

    I was a heavy equipment mechanic for about 15 years of my life. I know you own this stuff, so you don't really get a choice, but watching these last 2 videos has reaffirmed why I started running the equipment rather than working on it. Crawling around on your hands and knees, covered in an even mixture of dirt, hydraulic fluid, and blood, cussing, fighting... I'm glad you're doing it! I'm more than happy to watch!

      Totally agree. While I was watching these last two videos I was thinking that there's no way I could be crawling around under there like Shane was. My legs and feet certainly couldn't contort like his were. Uh uh.

    Pixall corn picker. Boy that brings back memories of picking sweet corn here in WI for the canning factories. Good to see you have a parts machine now. Maybe Tim can replicate the spline shaft using the old one. So you have a spare. Shane might have to take a few notes from Tim and have a couple pairs of coveralls to wear. LOL. Keep posting videos. Really enjoy them.

    Some of the most fun friends can have together is fixing things yourself. I remember working on cars with my high school buddies, nothing major, just swapping brake shoes, rotating tires or changing oil really made us feel like we knew what we were doing.

    It is great to see a couple of knowledgable, skillful workers able to put things to right. Industrial farming needing people who can keep the machinery going; a lot cheaper than having some pros come in to do the work or buying a replacement machine.

  • @JimWhitaker
    @JimWhitaker 2 месяца назад +1

    I wish we got corn like that in the UK. Supply lines only seem to get us corn which needs to be cooked in some way. Still good but not quite fresh enough for raw. What a beast of a job getting that shaft out.

      You get the knowledge from doing for yourself, My dad taught me to always try to fix it then if it dont work find a friend that knows.Thats why he and I have so many friends most will drop what there doing to help you out and you will them.
      I'm 61 taught my children to be independent too but when you need help ask for it but give back when you need to, My 25 year old daughter is independent fixes most things around the house or on her car, very proud of her and the boys. ABOVE DONT BE AFRAID TO TRY FIXING IT YOUR SELF OR FIGURING OUT HOW.
