    Great video! I'm 79 last October and I grew up with many of the stuff you use today. I like the way you run the farm. A lot of the old equipment is still being used and still being appreciated. Myself, I always liked the old beauties. I never ran anything with a cab. Out in the weather, no matter what, and doing what needed to be done. I tell ya true, I miss those days.. and I'd go back if I could :(

    I sure love all of your videos. I come from a farm here in Iowa in fact we still own our original farm. I have 7 brothers and we did an LLC after our parents passed away. We don't have any very new equipment plus we don't farm a ton of acres. We farm just about the same as you. We still pick lots of ear corn and grind it for fat cattle. I love the fact that watching the way you farm is about the same as us here. Keep all of these great videos coming. I looked you're only about 5 hours from us here in Iowa.

    The combine worked well for being 40 ish years old.
    On the sides of your elevator in place of duct tape you could weld some 14 ga sheet metal to repair the torn areas.just tack it in place and run some more tacks every 2" all the way around. Then grind 'em flat. Make it last another 15-20 years

  • @philipingram1667
    @philipingram1667 Год назад +34

    The 1460 was likely the most popular size when IH introduced them in 1977 - still my favorite even though the size now is considered small. Good video - keep up the good work!

    That duct tape is like rocket science! We only had baling wire and small sticks back in the day.
    'Gaffer tape' has improved adhesive over regular duct tape, more expensive though.
    HVAC guys use 'Nashua aluminum flashing tape' that might last better than either stuck to metal, about the same price as plastic duct tape.

    My brother worked on a farm in 1982. I would go out there and help him feed calves and watch the crew milk. One of their tractors was a 1600 Oliver. They'd run that thing wide open all day blowing sileage into a 105ft silo. The muffler would be glowing red but that old 1600 took the punishment. What an awesome old machine. I like watching your tractors in action no matter what color 🙂

  • @DrEVIL-og4qv
    @DrEVIL-og4qv Год назад +1

    Only color of farm equipment is #2150 RED, first tractor I did serious fieldwork with was a Super M-TA, unfortunately it got traded at a BIG IH dealer about 25 miles away and I lost track of it, but someday I'll have one, I was born spring of '54, have a '54 Super H and Dad's '51 M he bought brand new, I really need another FARMALL.
    I like your 686, I worked at the IH FARMALL PLANT when they were being built. And I worked at the IH East Moline combine plant while they were still building #915,#815,715,615 etc combines. Both plants are just about totally gone now.
    One special request, Please give your St. BERNARD more time in the videos. I was about 5 yrs old when my folks bought our first St. BERNARD, have had 4 total. Great farm dogs!

  • @keithkuckler2551
    @keithkuckler2551 Год назад +5

    I had the same elevator, but, I put a hydraulic motor on it, that way, I did not need an extra tractor to unload, just plug in the hoses on the tractor on the wagon and go for it. It also worked well in cramped areas, where it was hard to get around.

  • @t-rex558
    @t-rex558 11 месяцев назад +1

    Always was a IH fan. That's what the neighbor always had except for a two row New Idea corn picker. Always loved this time of year taking crops off back in the 70's. I just turned 68 and the way you operate your farm brings back great memories. Keep up the good work!

  • @anthonyhengst2908
    @anthonyhengst2908 Год назад +8

    We don't combine that much but when we do a Gleaner E worked well for us. It probably isn't the most efficient these days but it is what we have, it's paid for and it does the job satisfactorily.

  • @jeffsnider3588
    @jeffsnider3588 Год назад +2

    I had a Gleaner E and a model A-2. I remember the sound of the grain coming off the threshing cylinder and hitting sheet metal , it was so soothing. One of my favorite jobs was combining. Today I use a two row New Idea ear picker for some feed corn. Bought the picker on line from a dealer in Canada, it replaces a John Deere 100 one row that I used for about 30 years.

    Just a thought folks , if you could find a tinsmith and provide him with stock and a pattern he'd make parts for you , within reason . I'm a Massey Ferguson type , used them from the late 60s , your kit looks good , if someone had a case combine and a selection of tractors and kit like yours I'd be a kid in a sweet shop . Great video 👍🇬🇧

    @terencenelson4472 Год назад +4

    Really good video. I can't tell how many times that I've been able to return to home station from really remote locations with the use of the USAF version of duct tape (called "Speed Tape") or duck tape as it was termed in WWII. We didn't have baling wire available or we would've used that, too. An example: having an extended landing light that couldn't be retracted or held closed that limited our calibrated airspeed because of potential stuctural damage or fallen objects. Solution: close it manually on the ground and speed tape it closed. It works! Also! Love to see those colors flying proudly on the combine. Salute.

    I always enjoy your videos! Do you know that the handy man jack can be used as a clutch driver remover on a JD B tractor? put it across the face of the belt pully, put 2 half in. bolts thru the holes into the clutch driver, then tighten the bolts evenly until the driver comes off! I like the Flag on the combine! I know another guy that puts one on all his equipment! I know about this eating thing! We would run in the house to get a bite to eat when we were putting in hay, and Dad would come and say, come on, let's go, you can eat when it's raining! Well, it may not rain for the next 3 days!!

  • @kaisabens4856

  • @LtColDaddy71
    @LtColDaddy71 Год назад +1

    I’m not uniformly tribal when it comes to equipment. My great grandpa used animals as modes of power, my grandpa and his brother brought in John Deere 2 cylinders, and transitioned in to IH in the 60’s and was a red farm in the 80’s when my dad, aunts and uncles sold off everything. Ya, I had to start from scratch.
    That 1460 will do anything a Deere will do all the way up until JD came out with the 9400-9600 models. The catch is, you have to find the horsepower. The back end will take it. Their is a common hydro upgrade also, can’t remember off the top of my head.

  • @guydaubenspeck9206
    @guydaubenspeck9206 Год назад +2

    I just looking at the similarities of your place in Wisconsin and our farm here in Western Pennsylvania. We like you still pick most of our corn to feed our 60 head of beef cattle, but we also sell some at the end of the season every year. In the last several years we've been able to grow enough corn at 28,000 population on our wide rows to pretty much take care of our custom feed business and 100% take care of our cattle and usually in the fall we have couple or 300 bushel to sell. And like you we do run a hydro Columbine however we do have her own machine we have an old Alice Chalmers cleaner f2 was a four row wide head. We just put it away day before yesterday and LOL we're just finished Columbine about a week ago almost like you guys stay safe out there don't fall off those hills LOL I never knew Wisconsin until I got to watching your channel

    We used 1620 for the last few years upgraded to 2144 this year They both have shelled corn beside the neighbors new John Deere with the 1620 and 2144 doing a better job with less loss. So it's Case IH for me when it comes to combines.

  • @repairmanjoe8081
    @repairmanjoe8081 Год назад

    Speaking of elevators; when we used to pick cob corn, my dad bought a brand new 52' new Idea elevator. Our old Little Giant had seen better days. The very first time we hooked it up to put it in position, my dad turned too short and the rear tractor tire caught underneath the elevator and twisted the bottom section of the trough all to hell. I was too little to help but he was able to beat it sort of back into shape with a sledgehammer and a large pipe. That was in 1973. When we went from cob to shelled corn, the elevator went to fill my uncle's large bin and then come back to fill our even larger one. We also used it for b aled hay, sawdust, running shingles up the barn roof. It is a very indispensable piece of equipment.

    So I'm from WI and now living in CO. We went to a pumpkin patch last weekend and did the corn maze. They are not half as good as Wisconsins! 😁 As we were taking a tractor ride, our son, who is 3, saw the corn picker and asked what it was. Growing up in farm country, I was excited to get to explain to him. He wanted to see a video, so I ended up with yours. He LOVED IT!!! I miss WI a lot this time of year, so here I am washing, drying, and curling my hair and watching your video and totally enjoying it😂 I guess it reminds me of my childhood and feels nostalgic. Thanks for taking the time to make them, all while working hard. I enjoy seeing real men do real work! ❤

  • @AJmx2702001

    We used to fill 2 grain bins in much the same way with the Kewanee elevator. but our elevator had the power lift on it and just ran off tractor pto. Did about 25000 bushel with the elevator and 1460 axial flow. Took a lot of time to get it up with the conveyor. Compared to now doing it with a 13-inch auger.

    My favorite color is the one that runs flawlessly and doesn't break down and does a good job harvesting without a lot of waste. Glad your harvest has went well. Here in southern MN the farmers had an exceptional fall. Now we need some moisture for next spring. Oh my dad said it wasn't uncommon for him to be picking corn well into December. He said he raised some of his best beans on corn ground that didn't get plowed in the fall. God Bless and Have a Merry Christmas.

      I run a 1440 and 2 1460s have for a long time been very good machines for me only thing I can say keep the oil changed in the engine. To early is better than to late hr wise. And that engine will run a long time.
