    One thing that always stands out in your videos, is you take time to spend with your children. I think you have a future farmer in Ila, but there is no doubt she is daddy's little girl. Farm on!

    • @patrickdougherty2777

      Also he always talked with Ila before moving any equipment to be sure that she would not get run over. Good daddy. P.S. Seed corn is not "candy". Good discussion with Ila.

    I second the motion to highlight Jim. Also, kudos on demonstrating (without being preachy) your consistent focus on farm safety, including the need to teach children the host of unseen dangers as well as the big ones. I love that Miss Isla chooses to spend time with you and that you reward her with actual (versus feigned) loving attention. You do good work, Dad.

      @wishusknight3009 2 года назад

      Although pretty much all youtube family video's will tend to highlight the best out of the day, you can often tell when the kids are not behaving naturally or are putting on a show. Or the parents are pretending for the camera here. However with zach, I get really no hint of that whatsoever. And after watching them for quite a while it seems like the family would seem very familiar to any one to see in real life verses how they portray on the videos.

      Those farmers depend on that equipment and the investment they have in them. Having a happy mechanic to rely on is even more important to protect that investment. I do IT work and computer repairs in the home and i get some of that same treatment by business owners who rely on their computer equipment for a livelihood way more than just home users.

    Nothing better than having kids that would rather spend time with you, doing even the boring chores, just to be with you. Your kids give me the giggles when they say things like "That tiny thing?" when it comes to big equipment. She's going to be a farmer like you. Yes, I know they aren't perfect, as we don't see the fights with the siblings and the sass from time to time with the parents. It happens. Keep up the fantastic work with your munchkins, and hoping to see more.

One has a straight chuck and the other one rotates so between the two one will always work!

    I just purchased a rapid air K3015 automatic tire gauge. It’s pretty awesome. You set the pressure you want and it automatically inflates or deflates the tire until its right. My son loves it! It’s pretty pricey but so is everything these days. If it will just hold up it will definitely be worth it.

    It would scare me to death to have all the little ones running around in the same area as the tractors. Not to mention the dogs. Heck, it scares me to back up my Subaru from my parking spot.

  • @TrailRider1200
    @TrailRider1200 2 года назад

    I've used a Matco digital gauge for years and it has worked wonders. Used it on golf carts, wheel loaders, class 8 semis, and everything in between with no issue. The clip is like an inch long into braided line, so you can get it onto valve stems in the damnedest of places. Can connect directly to a hose and functions as a filler gauge as well, but works just fine without (use it quite a bit as a tire deflator when offroading)

  • @johnsonfarms4788

    Plumb up an air regulator and a hose with an air chuck on the end. Plug your regulator into the air supply and just regulate the air going into the secondary line and stick the air chuck on all the tires. That way, if you hear no air go through, tire full. If you hear air going through, tire low and getting filled up. Saves extra steps too so you don't check, then get the air stuff ready, them go back to all the tires that need it, fill them and then recheck them. Just have a secondary regulator on your air chuck on the wall and regulate a secondary line just for tires. Set your pressure right at the regulator.

    There’s a huge difference between farm kids and kids that don’t live on a farm. Most farm kids are outside doing things and entertaining themselves. Most kids that don’t live on a farm rely on technology to entertain them. Farm kids usually have great common sense and can figure things out better as they get older because of everything they learn on the farm. When I was a kid my siblings and I would walk the creek that ran through our farm when we weren’t working looking for sand stones, snakes, and other interesting things. Or we would walk across the fields to visit our friends and do things around their farms. We were seldom inside until late in the afternoon.
