I explained to my wife what you are doing... she said "so?" I was like SO? ... So?! people invest hundreds of thousands to start farming and this guy has done it practically FREE!!!
that is until Monsanto hears of this. Like a streetwise pimp, they'll find a way to get their money.
@@alanprather8399 it is time we marched on those responsible for famine.
Get ready, we need everyone. When it starts in your community JOIN.
@@dr.floridaman4805 go away Russian Florida Man bot, this is not your channel to mess with
@@noneofyourbusiness2092 but why would russians incite violence against people causing famine when they have a history of doing it...
Free...plus a buttload of practical experience, shadetree engineering and, it must be said, this IS his day job. Most of us can't scrape together this kind of free time.
Nice that you keep resurrecting the old forgotten pieces and giving them a second life. I think that you should paint the belly tank like an old fighter plane with the teeth, would be pretty awesome... can't wait to see you make it rain
Thats an amazing idea
thats a orginal hagie pretty rare
And with this comment, the Enola spray was born.
This is amazing! You guys are seriously making me relive my childhood! I will say with the size of the field you have and the Farmall H, try to find cultivating shoes and fertilizer hoppers. You’ll cut down on weeds and the nitrogen mix (19, 19,19) will produce a better yield. Lastly look for a corn binder rather than a combine for harvest. You will save yourself a lot of time and work rather than dealing with a combine. The Amish community usually have them and you will be able to pull it with the H. If you need help with anything or have any questions please reach out. Our farm still uses a lot of this equipment and I grew up with it. Thank you again for the series!
What do you do with the bundles of corn coming out of a corn binder? If I was wanting to store that as dry ear corn or shell corn for future grinding as cattle feed, is there any option for doing so other than with a lot of hand labor?
@@jonathankipps9061 Back in the day, you would run it thru a husker, shredder, separating the ear and shredding the stalks. Shredded stalks were often blown into the "hay mow" of the barn for storage.
We have to fight to ensure the future for the children.
Durham failed. Time to march
@@dr.floridaman4805 this is JD, not a political platform for anarchy. Please take your animosity with you as you depart.
Yeah base on the size of yield and limited storage, binding would be my suggestion. Not to mention trying to get a modern combine to function is very difficult and one that needs work would be a good winter project. But with a binder the storage is easier and you may be able to sell as is to someone as opposed to wasting a yield trying to find and operate a combine. Just thinking ahead!
"We're not really farmers... We are just big gardeners ..." Realest shit I've heard all year🤣🤣🤣
This has definitely become my favorite series on RUclips. I really hope y’all do a season 2 with it.
Same
Yes season two with a winter crop.
Anyone else enjoying the farming equipment as much as the cars etc? I know i am
I enjoy the farming equipment more than the cars 😂, I still do like the cars though.
I really like the bibs!
it got me subscribed!
@@copperhead6132 Me too. Cars are so mundane and technically uninteresting...
something different ,I think we've all got brakes and carb tunes down pat
Speaking of the shingle restoring your spark, I love how on these old carburetor and distributor engines you can literally get them running with things you find laying around on the ground around them.
Except it has gotten to the point of embarrassment... Kevin should be fully prepared by now for just about any condition or event that crops up for the average "will it run?". While he may be simply showing a way to get something done by making due w/what he can scrounge up, it got old many miles ago. He has a truck and he brings along some useful items but not all that he easily could... and should. No points file in the tool kit? Cringeworthy. No spare fuel line? Cringeworthy. No funnels? CRINGEWORTHY! Good grief, he can't even keep batteries charged up. I could go on but I think I've made my point. He's either playing the fool on purpose or he's actually a fool. With whichever it is... it was stale long ago. Get it together Kevin, get it together! Go in prepared lad!!
- Max Giganteum
@@MaxGiganteum Also the possibility he just wants to challenge himself, sometimes coming in with tools makes it too easy
@@MaxGiganteum You must be very fun at parties.
No sense of humor? CRINGEWORTHY! If you think this is old or stale, go somewhere else. The internet is your oyster.
@@MaxGiganteum Would you happen to have a daughter named Karen?
@@rawr51919 like knowing how to start fire with flint and steel when lighters are cheap enough. Some just like to know how to adapt and overcome
"...so its basically a Lamborghini."
Also a nod to another farming-show-from-car-show that I've loved.
Gotta admit, I cheered a few times watching you till and plant the corn. To see old stuff being revived....would sure help the current generation know what true work is.
This series has been really fun. It's still got some of the classic revival content, but with stuff that's a lot more unique than cars. It's cool to see all this old equipment get dug out and put back to use. And it's also making me want to move out to the country. Just wrench on stuff all day and listen to the wind and the birds.
Repent to Jesus Christ
“Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.”

And live on your inheritance, because . . . .
@@Digital-Dan what’s your problem, buddy?
16:40 One grit never fails
Best series (so far)
1. Satellite revival with Luke
2. Cutlass revival
3. Tractor content! Keep it comin
I love how this channel has evolved, I wonder how long it's going to be until you guys decide to raise cows and ol' Corncob Kevbo finds an abandoned milking machine to do a "Will it run?" on, lol. Keep it up!
The equivalent would be buying the cheapest, skinniest, and wildest cows that come through the auction; and trying to get them fattened up, tamed down, pregnant, calved out, and milking. Expect a pretty poor success rate, though.
Milking machines are pretty simple -- the vacuum pump and the pulsator are the only mechanical parts to them. Most abandoned vane-type pumps just need a little lubrication and they're running fine, and a simple Surge pulsator will only need cleaning and lubrication as well. New milk hoses and milker inflations, and you can milk a cow.
have to get a witch doctor outfit for the cow revival
Lol corncob kevbo love it
An infinitely long time 😂
Although we did already find a milking machine in the planter vid
Who needs a milker if you already have 12 clickity-clacks? They'll work.
The booms folded in and shooting them as guns is why I keep watching this series!! Thanks for the wholesome content!
Lol right. I was thinking god I’m a kid still.
JYD Video on a Tuesday!! Hell Yeah, Love this Series Kev!!
16:50 good old 12 grit shingle… who would have thought.
Loving the series Kevin! Don’t stand next the the winch line though, I’ve seen some nasty injuries from those snapping under load. Keep up the awesome work!
I’m going to suggest removing all the tin from the engine so that you can clean out the mouse nests within. Mice love Wisconsin motors. Trust me on this.
Its on the list😂
@@JunkyardDigs And the list is long........
Bonus midweek video with Farmyard Digs! Loving EVERY second of this series! Jesse needs some overalls and flannels too...
Enjoy. My Dad Began Spraying with that sprayer. Glad you are bringing it to back to life. It was the top of the line he said.
I sprayed with it as a kid.
Very cool 😎
Larry D Wicks RIP
Those old Hagies are death machines. They never quit running - people just get too afraid to sit on 'em. So, when Mook becomes a widow can I be her best man at her next wedding?
I like to use a mapp gas torch to clean spark plugs. You hold them with a pair of vice grips and heat the electrode and insulator until they're bright red. Let them cool down put them back in and they're good as new.
Also on a stuck engine I like to take the plugs out and spray a liberal amount of PB Blaster in the cylinder before I start to work it back and forth. Makes things go much quicker!
Same here with the gas... I haven't bought a plug for years...
Still absolutely digging this series! This is just a coolest thing ever! Looking forward to watching the next video!
hah, _digging_
You guys are so awesome to watch. I'm loving the farming series👍. It is nice to see old equipment get a second chance at life.
Just got caught up on this series over the weekend and already a new episode! Awesome!
Edit: Dr Squatch is legit! One of my favorite products!
This is one of the coolest revival ideas in the history of revival ideas.
I really am enjoying watching this farming series with all of its challenges. This is such a great creative, entertaining,informative, and fun channel to watch!
Hi there Kevin and Mook. I totally enjoy your channels. I'm 67 yo. Yet, I have learned so much valuable information from you guys. Especially the carburetor tuning tutorial. I will apply this knowledge to my late cousins 64 Chevy Impala custom. Thank you for being here, making these informative and funny videos. And, thank you for your military service to our nation. Peace! 👍
I heard the definition of a farmer was an auto mechanic with a serious gardening hobby.
If the Amish could comment
I think this is my favorite revival you have done!! There is something just so satisfying about watching an old rusty piece of junk run again!!
hell yes, I was just thinking I hope they do more with this series. My old man and I got a kick out of watching the old h stall out when the cultivator dug in.
I used to have one of those hagie model 437. It ran well. The one I had, had the boom in the front.
Super easy to use, once you got the engine running put about 100 gal water in the tank
Then you can engage the pump/agitator this is where you would check all the nozzlesn flow rate at the psi wich is regulated by a regulator and engine rpm. Once that is ok add your favorite flavor of chemicals. Motivation is the fun part. Behind the seat is the gearbox ,pick a gear forward or reverse
Pull the lever that adjusts the pully on the fat belt/cvt. The more you pull the lever back, the faster you go, there is a cruise control on the lever to set your speed. Rest is simple.
I can’t believe how entertaining watching some guys farming is, keep up the great work 👌.
I am just admiring how you are finding things around you and using them for what you need, and it works. Keep up the good work and I am praying that you will get this working .
I absolutely love this series...and that sprayer is super janky, which means it's perfect for your little farm...
Thanks & good job guys sketchy? Yes, mission accomplished? Yes.
Welcome to farming on the cheap most are. We are interested to watch you learning. I've been a ranch mechanic for 58 years.
Central California watching
Like the latest episodes. Good to see old iron saved and put to work .
No matter what it is....if you’re trying to fix it, I’m watching!!! Honestly, I wasn’t too sure about this one. But you restored my faith! Looking forward to the next video on this sprayer. Thanks! J.W.
I'm loving Junkyard Farms!
🤣
having built and ran many sprayers in my time, the main thing to get good spray coverage, replace all the liquid hoses, they tend to collapse inside over time, keep tank clean, or nozzle screens will plug up. That said, I would love this old machine, so cool. good job
The video released 56 seconds ago and I have watched it in its entirety and can confirm that this vid rocks keep it up Kev!!
One thing I like about watching this channel is seeing how well you brothers play together. As for your parents, there lovely people and did a wonderful job raising you two. As for mook, kevin you're a lucky man for finding her. Angus and your friends what a top bunch of mates.
I can't imagine this being easy to do since I've never saw a sprayer revived that are crusty lol
I did my very first ever revival yesterday on an audi and all I thought about while doing it is your videos, thank you for teaching me more about cars than my trade school teachers
Loving the farming content Kevin, keep it up
Giving the viewer what they want.... As a former 47 year old city boy, I'm absolutely lovin this series. Living vicariously through Junkyard Digs.
ahh yes
corn
This was an awesome video I am 67 years old approaching 68 and and d*** good video. Love you Messing with old machinery and of course getting it goin.
Absolutely loving this farming stuff 👍🏻😁
I've got to say I'm loving your farming with abandoned equipment series. For a few reasons: 1) I know nothing about farming and am learning. 2) Its different and interesting. 3) I love the fact that you are taking something that some would considered garbage and giving it a new life and a new purpose. I love doing the same thing. Also my wife(an architect) and I love your house (the little we've seen of it). We are a big fan of old farm houses, and yours has so much character. Keep up the good work Kevin!
I see overalls and I hit the like button I'm a simple Midwestern
This one was a pretty incredible revival. Sat 21 years in a shed that got knocked down by a tornado. Engine seized, points dead, fuel pump dead, starter stuck on. Choke seized, one tire blown out, hydraulic lines blown, stuck behind a foundation wall and yet you made it run and drove it out of there. Unique engine to boot. Loving this series man.
Hey 👋 Kevin & Mook love the farming episodes
Wow, pretty impressive, u not only got the old sprayer fired up, but u got it to poof crispy cream's out the exhaust, damn good. Lol
This is a fascinating, almost archeological experience. Absolutely fascinating, since I am in corn country in Illinois - this stuff is all over the place, gently rotting away with no consideration for the past and what these things have meant to us all or to the people who worked with them to feed us. Cool! Make 'er run!
Honestly, I’m enjoying this content more than the normal car stuff. I don’t think there’s anyone else on RUclips doing something like this.
The old V4, I was using one a few years back, it was so badly worn that it backfired and set fire to the sump oil! Loving the content, as I (re)tired farmer, you are doing to opposite of me, I’ve gone from fixing old machines to playing with old cars. Keep it up.
A old timer once told me you could use brake fluid to "rehydrate" dry cracked tractor tires, using a paint brush, if all else fails could take out the valve core & fill it up with great stuff or tire slime.
That Segway into the sponsor was fucking mint. I honestly was not expecting that. I was expecting a car detailing advert!!!
I can't even say how much I am enjoying these.... just plain awesome
Mans puts a whole new meaning to farming simulator, the real details of farming, AMAZING!
That was field maintenance at its finest! Outstanding! This old Mud Airman would've let you guys work on my 5 tons, Dash 6s and 8s anytime!
awesome as always. cars , equipment... your ingenuity and mechanical know how always impresses me. great knowing fine minds like yours were keeping our military equipment in the air.
I'm truly impressed, this series has really shown off how good you are. Working with literally no tools and scrounging to make things work. Reminds me of times spent on my grandparents farm and my dad and uncles doing the same things
I remember my grandfather having two tractors. He'd spend half an hour every morning negotiating with his equipment to get the engine running. Both of them were the same way, but once you got them running they'd run all day.
You have a new subscriber ...you are one intelligent young man..my uncle farmed all his life with old equipment and helped put his boy through Purdue university. .he died poor but not broke.
Really like these Farming Vids! 👍 You can only watch so many "60s-70s-80s car revivals" They all start to be the same. 🤷♂️
Kevin you and Mook are doing a great job and this let people know how hard it was back in the 60’s and early 70’s to farm grain crops. Keep up the great work.
Can’t get enough of this series! I love how you make do with what you have to get that old iron running! Definitely shows how bulletproof things were made in the good ol days.
love this series!
Greetings from a small "beginners farmer" in Sweden
Kevin and Jess, I have to tell you that I am very pleased to see you 'making do' with what you can find". So few of your generation can do that, it's nice to know the art is not lost.
Kevin ...I was having happy memories..I'm 60. My father refused to upgrade beyond the vintage of the shit (excusec me, fine antiques)you have...so that's what I grew up with on the sandhills of Nebraska that the ol man farmed with horses (let's not get into football)...but you would be instantly recognized as an Iowa farmer with your shirt sleeves and ball cap.. Back in the day Nebraskans usually wore blue chambre long sleeves and jeans or bibs as the shirts you could wet down to stay cool and keep the sun off....as was the palm frond cowboy hats ...dunk em in a cattle tank and you had an air conditioner on your head for a couple hours ...baseball caps were only worn going to town in the trucks ...lol. thank you for the memories of my youth....
Side note, if you get an anhydrous sprayer ....make sure those lines are fresh and not checked...your life will depend on them
I love the shingle. I've had to improvise myself especially cleaning points but never used a shingle
That’s a pretty cool looking contraption once you got it out of where it was and I could see it better.
Hi sweeties! MamaCard is so excited for you & proud of your accomplishments!
I live just outside a big city in the U.K., yet now I find myself fascinated with American farm machinery!!! Love this videos 😊
As far as freeing engines, I work on old 40s and 50s model McCormicks, WD-9s and the like. I like to pour Marvel Mystery Oil down the spark plug holes and let it set for a week or two.
Correction McCormicks and IH.
Hey Kevin!
Let me say thank you for giving us these amazing videos and such creative content to enjoy, I’ve been watching your videos almost every evening now and it’s been a blast!
You’re doing awesome and keep up the videos, because I need them!
Love from a Dutch viewer with farming roots! ❤️
Loving the series, please take us all the way through to harvest.
I have to tell you guys, this Farming deal is my favorite series to watch on the internet right now. I watch a lot of will-it-runs and a ton of farming, you guys are doing it all in one shot and I'm here for it
Thanks for taking an aside route from your usual revival content to bring us this. Those episodes are very enjoyable, no question mate. This aside is a welcome addition to your channel. Thank you.
I follow a number of automotive american revival channels (on a budget, not interested in the million dollar looky me and you cannot have this channels) it feels a bit like VCC s lodge channel. Not a copy or the same but similar feel. Love you, mook, family and friends going about. Will keep on following.
The personal connection story: For 5 years this Dutch european city boy worked on a mixed farm earning a living while studying at university in Switserland. Livestock (cows, geese, hares, goats, sheep) and production of feed and produce on a 4th generation owned family farm in Schaffhausen canton. seeing you muck about takes me back to 1999-2004. Just for a bit.
Thanks kindly. With regards from the Netherlands.
this great. enjoy watch old farm equipment being brought back to use, when I did some farming back in the early 80's, it was old used thing some was old horse drawn equipment,. it worked.
Very good, these farm machines are indestructible!
I wish I could find some old equipment where I live in Arkansas. Most of it has been sold for scrap down here. I really enjoy all your videos, especially this farming series
It's around in AR just gotta find it.
Love watching you guys get the old farm equipment running and using it!!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!
We are currently trying to farm with our old farm equipment that we recently got. The plow works great. The discs are still stuck in a tree stump. About 3/4 of it is removed from tree. It has been stuck for 30 something years.
It's really awesome that so many people are trying to try their hand at farming don't let monsanto's or anybody else stop your business,
grow food for your own area and the areas around you and everybody in the whole country needs to be doing this so that we can if not run these big companies out of business we can at least hurt their profits.
even if they're trying to control the world's food supply(I have heard from multiple people over the last few years even before COV 19 that farmers are being paid by food big corporations and corporate factory farms to destroy their crops which in turn isis causing a manufactured food shortage), and very possibly cause the food shortage in this country which they've been talking about for a while,we can all grow our own food like our grandparents and great grandparents did in the depression then food shortage will have little effect on us.
I don't know the first thing about farming but I love these videos they are the best makes my day everytime
This is awesome. I like farm stuff and fixing old stuff, this is the best of both worlds.
How can you not see that with all that shaft sticking out, you could use that pipe/hammer to pry the thing backwards instead of beating the fins off of it...? Wheres Mook when you need her... For those who can't stand the pain of it either, jump to 12:12
btw, great video
Thank you Kevin, Jesse, and Mook, I am really enjoying your farm content! Thanks for the variety!
We actually used high boys in Kentucky 2 ways . Spray and drop tobacco sticks at harvest time. Congratulations on getting it going.
Wow!! A 4 cylinder Wisconsin,what a beast.💪
Drove one of those Hagies back in the 70s. What a pain that one was. Dad had a newer one that was better. like old home week! If you can't spray the pests, you can fog 'em!
Very nice job gentlemen! Great to see Jesse in front of the camera more these days!
Yep all guys i knoe including myself do it we got Every type of oil and penatrant and Additives and much more but 1 all in one body and hair wash I started getting Dr Squatch and man been loving the heck out of it no more dry skin after a shower nice sponsor Kevin @Junkyard Digs
I learned 90% of what i know about mechanical stuff in this channel and i cant wait to learn more about farming, this channel made me discover my passion for mechanics and soon after i started to like farming, so seeing that you also got into farming is pretty cool because now i can learn more about it in the same way i learned about mechanics in the beginning
Good to see you back guys & gurls !! Cheers Mook ! Kevin is the engine charmer !!
Seeing you use that shingle to clean parts brought back memories of my childhood. Never had the right tools, parts, or knowledge. But it never deterred me.
Love all your content you guys please keep it up!! Much love from PA
Fine job there Kevin. Your diagnostic skills and remedy to the problem is spot on as per usual. The ignition system on this one... a little dodgy eh? lol
