Video almost like going to the fair. Thanks Nephew Trent.
Big boys and their big boy toys 🤣🤣 Looks like you had fun. The cab enclosures with AC are awesome!!! You didn't get enough chain cases, though. 🤣🤣 Those autonomous lawn mowers are neat. JD Zero Turn mowers are cool. Trent did a great job!
Great video Neil! See you in the next one! 🥰🥰🤗🤗😘😘
Thanks Susan!
Good Job Trent, you may have a future in the RUclips business!
Neil that was fantastic! You had a camera operator with you. Very nicely done, nephew Trent!
Thanks so much Ed! It was nice to have a helper there for sure!
So many toys, so little time lol. Stay safe and have a great day
Uncle mark with the lighting what a legend
Nice 👍🏻 Is that really your uncle Mark? Those lights are great! Thanks for watching :)
This was like watching a kid in a candy store. 😄 Good job Trent, keep up the good work
I love my electric automatic sheep. They cut our grass like a lawn (and fertilize it for free at the same time) and we get to eat the mower at the end of the year!
I have not cut ANY grass for 9 years now and we have lamb on a spit 4 times a year. Jim in Chile.
That's perfect!
@@digdrivediy a hahaha yea I can’t believe I thought of it.
Nice Job Trent !
Neil I must have one of those chain storage Thingies !
Thanks for sharing 👍
Sure thing. I'm gonna throw a link in the description.
Good video. Glad you didn’t lose all your footage.
Thanks! Me too!
Thank-you for helping with the video Trent!
Thanks for sharing Neil, lots of interesting stuff !!
Thanks Trent for your help. Great to see you in all the videos over the years and now maybe more.
Great overview of the show, Neil.
Thanks Chad!
🔥🔥🔥 THANKS FOR SHARING THE TRIP MY BROTHER
Howdy Todd! Thanks for checking it out!
Harlan days small town boy, then the Grabill fair and Edgerton,OH has an axe throwing place called Axcapades. Thanks for the tour!
Great video both of you that looks like a great place to visit lots of toys I mean tools to check out
Thanks Shane. There was actually too much to see!
Good job Trent
Great video, editing on point 👍👍
Thanks fore the awesome camera work Trent and thanks for the content Neil
Thanks for the vid Trent😊
Thanks for the video Trent. Hope you enjoyed KY!
Great job guys. Fun video to watch!
Good job on the camera Trent...
My father was in the hardware business for 40 yrs. I used to love going to trade shows. The little booths with the unique items where the best.
For sure.
I love going to those shows. I don't usually buy much but, it's fun to see what's on the horizon. It seems like a lot of the stuff doesn't hang around long but, occasionally, someone has a great idea that changes the way we operate. Thanks for sharing Neil.
Yeah, great fun to see all the new stuff.
Very true. I always imagine the first cordless drills and power tools at these events. They would have been novel at the time and now it's strange to think of life without my cordless drill. The tractors are gonna take a while to get there but I could see the small electric mowers being very common for sub division yards.
Great video!!! Big toy store!!!
Nicely done Trent!
Good job Trent...!!!!
Thanks for the ride along sir, great stuff. Big show. Thanks Trent.
Trent great job. Your uncle failed to tell us your age ? Neil thanks for sharing all the awesome toys and tools. My grandson wants a remote control lawnmower.
Thanks much TJ! Trent is 18 and graduated from HS last year.
Great work nephew Trent. I'm thinking I might need to make the drive to Ky next year for the show. Thanks to Artillian for having Neil down to the show.
Don't worry about the people talking and telling you what you should do or not. Take a look at a lot of Channels, everyone who tried to appease these people stopped it very soon!
You work with chainsaws for decades (I guess) and yes it is important to have protection, but I bet that these people would have to complain even if you would wear a Titanium suite!
Keep going and don't worry to much about them!
People are bored and they want to feel special, just nod and smile and do what you do!
The people like your content because of you and your ideas 👍🏻
Nice work Trent ! ! !
Good job, Trent.
Nice job guys! I'm sorry I'm late viewing! 😁👨🚒
No worries! Thanks as always!
Great stuff you guy's Thanks !!
Looks like a great time. Thanks for sharing. Thanks Trent
Thanks Neil/Trent.
You have to do a Video of how you got those crazy Angles and moves.
Mike M.
Those are trade secrets! :)
Very cool! Great video!
Thanks Trent! 🎃
Great video I see you have great help now way to go love your videos thank you
Trent is doing great! Thanks Ed!
Thanks Trent.
Trent, you did a fantastic job. Uncle Neil has taught you well!! I look forward to more of your creativity!
Neil, I wish I could have made it this yr down to Louisville. Sadly, my wife and I are dealing with some unexpected medical issues with one of our children. Hopefully, next year, we will be able to attend the Paul Bunyan show in Cambridge and the equip expo as well. Great job, as always. Thank you for the smiles and the opportunity to feel as if I were there! Well done! Until next time.
Thanks. Best wishes and get well soon for your child and hopefully we can see you somewhere next year.
Those shows are like a kid in a candy store 😂.
Oh the old ditch witch. They have been getting better stronger.
John Deere set that opstical course up nice...corner, circular and bumps 😂.
👍👍👍👍👍. Thank you Neil and team for the ride along.
Thanks Trent, and thanks neighbor!!!😃
Trent has it going on!
Thanks Trent :)
Thanks Trent
Great video Trent
Good job trent 😊👍
I know it's a while ago but better late then never.
Great job, Trent! Thanks for all you both do.
Great job Trent...
Thanks for the videos, great job.
💥 After seeing that 360 camera footage in action I’m very tempted to buy one. Nicely edited Trent and Neil!
*Keep on tractoring!* 😁👍
It was definitely fun and I think it did provide a neat perspective. Hope you caught yourself there in at least one of those shots!
That place was awesome Neil I’m jealous I couldn’t be there in person but u and Trent did a great job covering a wide majority of it crazy what the world is heading with all the technology these days great video guys gif bless
Good work Trent!
Awesome video as always Neil!
Thanks Paul!
As always, the camera work and editing is fantastic
Thanks so much Hank!
I just found out about this show a few years ago but have never been able to go. Thank you and Trent for the overview.
The first thing I bought for my JD 2025R was the Artillian front frame so I could put a trailer ball on the front. I came close to getting the grapple but I just could not handle the shipping.
It is a really fun show to see.
Trent ya done good, Love the video.
That Case dozer/skid is legit… but I've heard it was $160K with steel tracks. WOW.
It is pricey!
hi there real nice show . john
The rep for that huge mower is an Indiana man as well from down here with me!
Oh nice 👍🏻
Great work Trent!
I would like to see Curtis/Artillian come up with one of these for the front mount Grasshopper mowers. I tend to think those are more versatile compared to a midmount. I bet you'll easily get Kara to allow a ZTR since she'll want to mow more. Trent might be getting offers from the local racetracks to do video work for them soon enough.
These wood really be nice for a grasshopper! Maybe I shouldn't have exposed Trent as my cameraman so that no one would try to steal them from me! :)
Hey Neil its Lindsey again we just got another text from our mom and dad is getting a cat scan done right now at this very minute
Hey Lindsey. That certainly sounds scary. We hope that everything will be OK for your Dad. I am writing this message from Texas but we will be home soon. Thanks for letting us know and maybe we will talk to you soon.
Good job Trent!
My favorite video is when you explain how you got hooked on John Deere
Tanks Trent
Super 👍 👍👍 👍 👍👍 👍 😻😻😻 😻 😻😻 😻 💯 💯 💯 👏👏 👏👏
It’s like visiting Santa’s Workshop before you fill out your Christmas List!
So many cool toys that a boy can hardly choose which one he wants under the tree… the most.
Trent did a most excellent job of capturing the sights and sounds. He has truly proven to be an asset to DDD… he may become famous one day for his cinema work.
I have been needing an answer for my chains. They hang on two hooks in my shop. One for ‘sharp’. The other for ‘needs to be’. But, if I take them off and head for the woods… then I spend more time untangling them than I do putting them on. I’ll own one of those chain boxes… because it’s going on the top of my Santa List!
I’m not sold on electric automotive vehicles because of their impracticality. But, the usefulness of the cordless hand tools have warmed me up to battery powered equipment.
Years ago, I lived in town. My neighbor had a 120V push mower. It was only 16” cut and way under powered. He had to cut his yard twice a week just to keep from bogging it down.
One day his grandson kept blowing breakers. I watched from my patio as he constantly mowed a few feet then ran inside to flip the circuit breaker.
The neighbor was at work. So, I walked over to see what the problem was. He told me that he’d cut the power cord and had to walk home and bring one of his dad’s extension cords to finish the job.
I looked at the cord… it was two 50’ X 16Ga. pieces. One of them had a couple of splices put together with a wad of black tape wrapped around them. The other had the ground prong snipped off on the male plug.
The cord that he’d cut was a 100’ X14Ga. So, I grabbed my 50’ X 14 Ga cord and plugged it into the light post receptacle on our property line. It was just long enough to finish the yard.
I learned two things from that… electric mowers weren’t ready for prime time. And, my neighbor introduced me to shrink tubing for electrical repairs.
That was several years ago and my prejudice against electric equipment has faded. Perhaps my fondness for battery powered hand tools and the relentless march of innovation have conspired to make me look seriously at these electronically powered options. Your snapshots gave me a few places to look.
Thanks Neil… I will be shopping soon.
Plug in electric and battery electric are two different animals. A battery powered drill is a convenience: the electric drill on an extension cord will last a lot longer as a rule. Battery powered lawn mowers at this point in time are ether over expensive or not built so well and both will not last as long as a gas or diesel machine. My opinion is that you should keep your Prejudice against electric equipment that is bigger than an electric drill. My uncle sorta had an electric mower. He used a belt on a washing machine motor to start the worn out 3 hp lawn mower engine. Spin it long enough and it would get a little compression and start running!!
I always enjoy your take on things. I think because I spent nearly a decade as a test operator for an agricultural auto steer tech company, I have an appetite for new tech and some patience for it to get developed out into a working product. I'm really glad to hear your take on it as someone who has slowly developed some level of acceptance.
I'm not rushing out to buy a new electric tractor anytime soon, but I can see where they would be nice for residential neighborhoods once they get them figured out. I'm worried that too many folks are quick to say "those will never work because of x,y,z" yet that is not how innovation works. It will take some time but if the market does truly demands it, they'll get it figured out.
Ironically, the Amish in our area appear to be the biggest consumers of electric tech. Many have big solar arrays to get their electricity and they can easily charge their batteries over time.
It is very common to see wives out doing the yard work with their electric trimmers and leaf blowers during the day. They like them because the wives can run them easily and there is much less noise to disturb the horses and livestock.
They all have electric bicycles around here too! So, it isn't a stretch to think there will be a demand for this stuff once it gets perfected... At least amongst the Amish communities! :)
Thanks for the discussion on it. It will certainly be interesting to follow although I'll probably still be in my 30 year old tractor even when this stuff is commonplace!
Ha! I like that electric motor start assist trick! :)
Agreed that we're not quite there yet on electric mowers.
@@scottsoper thanks for the advice… my yard is far too large to give up on dinosaur bone powered mowers… right now!
@@digdrivediy the Mennonites that built my barns owned every battery powered Dewalt power tool that you can imagine. I offered to string an extension cord for their use in charging their batteries. They said, “No thanks.” And, put a solar charger out in the field instead.
While there is a lot of buzz around electric powered equipment, the only real need for it is when states like CA mandate that you have to use it. Otherwise it would just be for special situations and there would be a lot less interest in it. That DeWalt Zero Turn fire says it all for me. Gotta have a Class D fire extinguisher for that kind of fire at about $480 at Home Depot.
Yeah for sure. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out and if it all dies out. I have to admit though, I do like my battery operated tools. Kara uses the battery trimmer a lot and the battery leaf blower nearly every day on the porch.
@@digdrivediy small things like blowers and trimmers work OK as a convenience with a battery. But power hungry lawn mowers move up in battery size and down in convenience.
Neil that was fantastic! You had a camera operator with you. Very nicely done, nephew Trent! (I stole this comment as it was just perfect)
Appreciate it!
Neil buy me one while your at it 😆
Sure thing 😃
That's like a candy store on steroids. It would be hard to leave.
Dang i wanted to go
I believe I have seen that system for robot mowing before. It has been a long time coming. I wish I knew more about it and right now I don't even know the name: unless Bob Cat bought them out. They were making the system to work on any zero turn and still retain the ability for a person to sit in the machine and run it. This system using a diesel mower is the best I have ever heard of and I would like to know more about it. It has great possibilities.
I actually did some testing on self driving mowers about 8 years ago. There was a company in Indiana trying to develop a system that would work. So I'm actually surprised it isn't to market quite yet but it is still very interesting.
Who did you have filming for you? I’m at the end of the video now, thanks!
Nice job on the video Trent!! Neil, curious how well you could see the lower blade corners in the Case Minotaur? From the video it looked like the machines arm blocked the visibility, but I know the camera was lower than eye level.
That Versatran 6T Retriever looks quite nice for someone without a CDL, now if they were just making that in the early 2000's....one could look for a decent used one😂
Have a good one!!
Hey Stephen. Yeah, it was impossible to see the corners of the blade. I found that to be a big downfall. I had to do everything by feel and while you could likely master it over time, I really like being able to see the blade corners. That being said though, I do run the backhoe a lot without being able to see the cutting edge. I should have done a better job explaining my experience of the Minotaur. It was cool but I'd probably still prefer a dozer.
👍
This was awesome! Looks like a great show!
My favorites where the young duo that came up with a patented dump on the zero turn. The other one I liked was the Minotaur SSL/Dozer, really interesting!
What did you think of the mini/stand on SSL?
Can’t wait to see the next one!
Thanks. I think there's definitely a place for those little miniature stand-on skid steers. It felt a little risky to me because you could be thrown off of the thing very easily, but I guess just like anything else you need to get used to it. Plus I guess I just prefer sitting down as opposed to standing up.
Thanks for the videos Trent! Hey Neil what’s the artificial body of water you dig in someone’s backyard called again? The one that the mower could cut the grass on it’s steep bank? Sorry I just had too, it brought back good memories! Thanks for sharing. Take care my friend!
Haha! It's funny I thought of you when I was editing this and heard me say it 🤣
"Pawnd"
Hope u get a 1mln subs so you can get yourself a machine like that Minotaur

hey Neil its Lindsey we just got a text from mom dad just had a heart scan done but he is still in critical condition
Isn't that the show the Dewalt electric zero-turn burned to the ground?
Yes it is. I wasn't there on that day though.
Does this show travel around? I’d probably attend if the landed in Iowa. Thanks for taking us around!
No, it's always at Louisville I think.
Did they let you fly a drone around ? 😳
No, I didn't get to fly the drone. I used a different camera for this that I hoped would look like a drone though!
Neil that cement blade was that 14inch ?
Yessir!
How much is that concrete demo blade
It's like $350 I think.
Did you make a video of the Massimo Motor Booth?
No, I'm afraid I didn't.
@@digdrivediy that's okay!
@@digdrivediy can you please make a video of there Booth in 2023?
I expect this mower will last several seasons with decent care. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx1VWTrayKBdCKAjzAcZ_Eg4dhHTae3LkN also recommend Also, I ran across the problem with it not starting the 2nd time I used it. There is a safety switch which is pushed in by the chute or mulching piece being attached to the deck. I took the cover off and it wouldn't start. Put it back on, no problem. It takes only a minute with 2 easily accessible wingnuts and no tools. This mower starts up first crank each time and it is a joy to use. It also mows in reverse by putting the key to the reverse area after starting and pushing in the triangular button. It will stay in reverse mode until you turn it off. All in all, for my homeowner needs, I really like this mower-and at 70 bucks a cut here in Miami, it's already more than 1/3 paid for itself in a month.
What do they say at end of intro
"Dig Drive, DIY"
@@digdrivediy thank you for responding.
Good morning! Hey Neil are you having a giveaway, an industrial pressure washer to be precise! I think I’m being scammed please reply thanks. From Northwestern Vermont
I'm sorry Darcy. That is definitely a scam. I wish that wasn't a thing...
Yeah me too! I can’t believe people are that low!
AAAAA+
Neil its Lindsey Chris and I have an emergency mom and our grandpa darvin just rushed our dad to the Er he is really sick with food poisoning so text me back right away Neil when you get this thanks lindsey
Wow 55k subscribers. 25-33% there to full timer 😁. TBH, lots of people do these videos. I like the project videos better.
Yeah, and especially since it is a week late! I get it. I definitely have some projects in mind. But thanks for checking it out Jim!
$65k, get a 40hp tractor with a batwing mower
