- Join along as we get the crane in for the day and the bin site starts to look like something. With the crew and the crane operator they make quick work of dismantling the site. Thanks for watching along.
Hey, Chris near where I live. We have Duffy Crane service. You all keep up the good work.💪🇺🇲👍
That's some good work men, love the Blake cam.
Wow thats do really great progress guys, Well done.
Cool and safe
Great Drone Footage and nice to see such big Progress on the Project 👍😊🌸
Great job Duffy! Good progress. That set up will be a huge asset to the farm. It’s good that you can put up as much or as little as you need or spare cash allows as your acres grow. Keep up the great work, I’m really enjoying following along.
Massive job
The crane was absolutely necessary . Great call for smooth safe take down .🎉
You made the right choice Chris. On the grain bins. The people with the comment need to let loose of all that cash they have to get you a new one.
Had to catch up on the grain storage relocation, due to being side tracked with my own stuff here in the UK, but have now caught up on the videos.
Fantastic content, glad you've had such a good deal on this stuff, and so glad I follow your channel, never had anything to do with farming apart from helping moving a herd of cattle on a farm for a friend a few years ago, I'm a retired Paramedic, and ex-HGV (CDL?), so totally unrelated occupation, wish you well with your farm and future projects, and glad to see you've got such a good partner looking after your interests back at Home Farm, she's a keeper by the looks, beautiful young women full of knowledge and experience, you are blessed mate.
You have a really good future ahead of you.
Great job Chris and Blake and crew getting down to it can't wait for next video 👏
I would add a few more ventilators to bin roofs when they go back up. The existing ones also seem too close to the eave IMO. Older bins always seem to not have enough ventilators.
Awesome video Chris and guys. Great work!!!
I thought you didn't have good eyes I don't think you seen the end of the tunnel yet lol !
Nice work Duffy and Crew. As for “more organized”, the cost to add extra trucks and pay people is far outweighed by the true friendship
And brotherhood your crew has shown this week. Nice work by the whole crew! Keep
Pushing Chris! You are a long way from psycho bicyclists calling the cops after getting a “bath”
After following to close!
You doing a great job, well done
Great footage, enjoying the progress. Keep your nerve. It's coming down nicely.
Chris, my thoughts on leg versus that would be to save the time and expense buy a back and then you don't have the hassle of crawling to the top of the leg if you have something break I like you do not prefer hi work. Evac would eliminate that other than roof work when it eventually shows up
Exciting time for Duffy Ag
Congratulations Chris for thinking outside the box moving your operation forward
Tremendous progress 👍👍👍
Dude! You better be PUMPED! This is awesome. Tremendous accomplishment in 4 days.
Great watch today! Happy it's going very well for you and crew
Making good progress now Chris & the crew, that's going to look mega when you get it up at home
Nice crane great job guys
Love the content keep it up
We used a tri-pod jacks from the outside with a hand crank cable winch. Hydraulic look much safer! Great progress!
I would highly suggest changing the top bearings on grain leg top before u put it up ... with the belt in there it's a real pain to change them
Thanks for bringing us along on our adventures!
Big investment but big potential outcome for future growth . Praying all goes a planed with improved health 🙏🙏🙏
Big job Chris....really big
Take care of yourself Chris as you look exhausted. It's great that Blake & crew are working with ye. Best of luck from Ireland.
You don't get your rear in gear this year and get your crop in time you will have nothing to put into the bins hope the best for you its hard to get stated farming when you start from nothing it's a hard grind but don't give up shake it off get up and keep going !
Hey chris your doing great your brother and his guys came in clutch can't wait to see it up at duffy home stead
Yes Chris, you probably could use a lot of more updated equipment as some think, but they don't take into consideration that you don't have an unlimited supply of cash flow to get that newer equipment. I for one think you are doing great with what you do have to work with.
Love ❤watching your stuff
How many trips do you think it will take to get all that home? Will your loader tractor be able to lift those pallets and the larger pieces? I know time and money are an issue, but it's a shame you weren't able to get that barn too.
I think he has most, if not all home, we are about 5 days behind the video.
When you think about it each bin broken down is a pallet of roof pannels maybe 2 or 3 pallets of side pannels and a pallet of flooring. So about 5 pallets per big bin and maybe 4 pallets for the smaller bins...then theres all the tubing for moving grain around plus the leg.
Leg is at least one load on its own. All the pallets probably at least 2 loads ans a load of all the tubing.
I realize that your done now but wouldn't the crane at $219.00 an hour been cheaper to take the bins down? You had enough guys to zip apart pretty fast and wouldn't have wasted the time moving jacks. Just wondering
Hi from chris. My one comment/ suggestion is that all those moving / wearing parts at the top of the leg, you replace them all with top quality new while the leg is on the ground so that it will be many years before someone has to go up to fix a breakdown. That's what I'd do anyway
I agree when the leg is on the ground rebuild the top end. Will be way cheaper than going it later
Lookin good
Awesome video Duffy
That's great Duff, another day forward !
Big job Chris 💪💪👌😎
Bin yard is going to one hell of a asset Chris, your making great headway, not sure how many loads it will be but your going to need some power to unload it all at one as well. Can’t wait till we see it going back up will be very interesting to see it handle its first load of corn! Looks like to me you’re going to have 6 semi loads for sure if not more. Maybe Isiah will come for a couple loads also that would help. Might be an idea to get someone to tender it out as well. Might be cheaper in the long run.. getting a great kick out of Blake’s Boston accent!!
Good Job Duffy, Keep making them Haters Hate!!
You guys got a Ton dine today🎉
Looks like everything is coming together.
It does? it looks to me like everything's coming apart. But hey if you're watching this demolition series in rewind that's your choice I guess.
That's awesome
Looks like it’s time to start loading the truck for the first trip home. Maybe I’m wrong but I think it’s going to take a couple of loads. It’s coming together just keep plugging away.
Here for my daily dose of duffy's drama
Isn’t that the whole point of a vlog? Where’s your farm at?
Right after you get off Daryl's Dingaling . 10 Damn 4?
@blacksheep9734 yeah no shit . Ole cup cake aint got no vids. Oh but I do ...
Ouch. Cranes are pricey.
@@stevewbeardswhat exactly do you think that crane costs plus operating costs.
Just make sure when you do dry corn that it is dry enough.and keep an eye on it.there’s a lot to wear out with air system.keep it good luck.😊
Nice job getting the grain leg on the ground!
If you get that back together and functioning I will be truly impressed holy shit
Getting it done 👍
Soon you need a fleet of trailers. Lots of pieces parts!
He has all home, we are 5 days behind.
@@martincassidy682 glad it all worked out well 👍😁
that leg is going to look sick on the farm
The other thing about commercial is it follows osha standards. So many feet of ladder you need a platform.
You will never regret putting that 4,000 bushel bin on a scaffold to load your trucks directly. Being the scavenger that you are, the steel will probably magically appear. Such a loading of out-bound trucks will actually reduce the number of needed trucks by one or more.
Those Silo Bins don't look too bad at all, might be rust on parts but only facial rust, can be treated and a bit of silver paint on them.
How many load do you think ? I think it's more size and not weight that will be the factor on the amount of loads , my guess 4 loads . Lot of work you got your team into this time ! Good video/
He has all home.
Nope more like 6 loads maybe 5 the leg is probably going to be 2 loads depending on dimentions. Might not be able to put both peices on the same load. Plus he has a load of just tubing for all the bins. Then like 15 or more over sized pallets with the bin pannels thats probably another 2 to 3 loads because they are oddly shaped.
Better not be leg ever is Mr d you got plans and w support them I'm UK will come help if you need me too but that leg will stand again
Ive seen bins that size lifted from the top with a excavator and couple guys with impacts unbolt the side walls in a hour or so.
Duffy ...DO NOT. DO NOT. put the grain leg under the ground, put it above the ground so it not set in water !!!
Ok Mr know it all farmer
Make sure to post you brother's channel so we can all subscribe. Good to see things coming together Chris.
Hi Chris are you going g to use cold galv when painting inside and outside of bins
Doing good fellers
How are you gonna load the leg on your trailer! It looks like quite a few loads of stuff to get everything home!
He already has it home.
We are 5 days behind the Videos.
Cool!
how far away from the farm is this site hours?
4.5hr
@@OOpSjmhe said before 6 hours each way
@@OOpSjm just wondering if worth selling the leg and take rest home minus scrap itll pay for everything and some cash in bank
@@OOpSjm not so much to haul home
@@russellpetrie119 No, the bucket elevator will be crucial to future efficiency.
Hi Duffy, first time commenting. I would highly recommend pumping that basement out and save that boot. That piece is a major expense of that leg. It will be worth your time. Put new bearings in it and redline it. Otherwise good luck.
Got some rot in the bottom, it might be salvageable.

😊😊😊😊😊
A new site like this is atleast 700k
Idk about that, today guys would build 3 small bins. Just one big one and a wet bin. Even if the leg was 100k. You wouldn’t have 600k in bins and dryer
It dont matter. How much a new site is. 200000 to 20000 what's the savings genius duff is getting it done. Period.
This video has by far been the most interesting intriguing and information. It’s nice to hear what a new bin cost compared to what you get for a used bin makes sense as to why some US farmers and Canadian farmer to go broke up putting these brand new ones up and then going bankrupt 20 years later down the road Thanks to you duff and your crew your a blessed man Interesting song . Where do you find your song tracks?
You have several loads to carry to NY
He sent a bunch of it with other transports because there was going to be no way for him to load it to keep going back and forth himself for days.
Your going to need a lot more land to farm when you get the bin's up and running.
No he doesnt....just because you have the storage doesnt mean it has to be full. It'll just allow him to hold more back after harvest in hopes of better prices to sell it rather than trucking it all as fast as it comes off the feilds...and with the dryer he can dry his own grain rather than paying crazy drying prices at the mill.
Small steps commenters updates don’t work with a budget… Period.
are the bins rated for snow load in that part of NY?
Duffy should have borrowed a flatbed trailer from someone and hauled it down on the landoll and unloaded it and loaded it as stuff was torn down and then loaded the leg on the landoll
I've seen the whole hood lifted with a spare tire from a truck, a 12" 2x4 and the crain
Be nice to drive up and over your discharge grid i got fed up every time u needed to yous the leg having to pump water out off pit or possibly at yours you could run a drain out off bottom off leg
Why would you have to pump water out of the pit just put a roof over it drive the trucks under the roof I mean if you want to get real fancy put a roll-up garage door on each side can only have the doors open whenever you're handling grain I mean if you're going to spend $75 or $80,000 setting up a grain handling facility to cover that pit would be what another $5,000 it's not worth worrying about.
Just needs poper drainage. I could never understand spending so much money on a grain system and not isntall a proper sump/tile system for the dumpit.
You will recover the leg anchor posts?
I was seeing a cauple of years back when neighbor put his grain leg up they were putting it in 4 parts
How did you orchestrate all this? Amazing!!!
🌽🛠️
Do you know how many acres that is?
I still don't understand why someone isn't taking a load back to the farm every day
Grain legs are FAR from outdated. Whomever wrote that knows not of what they write.
Of course, Trolls aren't the brightest sparks around.
The cheaper grain legs were 1000to 1500 a ft
Will you gif it new Paint ?
Do away with the tower cable stays and just put up 3-6x6 box pipe brasses halfway up. Save ya ton money and headaches.
You got a good deal on buying all that for 7 grand and the leg itself is worth about 20 grand your blessed
I think your math on storage is off
Why didn't you load the leg when you had crane on landall when you had it more $$$
$200 an hour for the crane to lay it down repick it and load it or $50 a day for the tele handler to load it at his leasure later...instead of a 10hr bill of $2500 he could have had a $3000 or $3500 crane bill...which would you choose if it was coming out of your pocket?
If this was truly organized, the leg would be loaded onto trailers instead of handling components multiple times. Each time handling the damage probability goes up.
Dude u need to stfu fuckin trolls on here thinkin they are magic man. Dont watch then.
Stick to farmer simulator
End of the day it's about bottom dollar. Get it on the ground, and rent a cheaper machine to load out when ready.
At 10k/ day for a crane, hiring another truck, it's only money right?
Land it on the ground, get things down. Rent a cheaper machine (like the telehandler) to load out at your leisure. Rather then rush, or spend unneeded overhead for one load.
Things could be done 100 different ways, absolutely. Unfortunately some people have different constraints then just writing cheque's.
Wakey wakey, he has the legs home, so looks like you are disorganised by not knowing it.
@@martincassidy682you're really kind of a numb nuts, not everybody spends their life on social media just because you do.
Could you not off put leg parts straight on trailor take em home
They're already home.
@@OOpSjm I think we are about 5 days behind the videos.
Half ofthese wanna b keyboard bandits do not have a friggen clue as to know the price of this bin site
That's not the point the point is when you're growing 100 acres of corn and 100 acres of soybeans you don't need this setup. What would you need it for. Beans in his s area of New York will average about 45-50 bushel an acre so there is 4500-5000 bushels of beans he'll get next fall if he has a bumper crop he'll get 5500. And 100 acres of corn is going to give him about 18 or 19,000 bushels of corn to store. And there's no damn way that when you're as cash tight as he is that he can afford to store all his grain at harvest anyway so some of it's going to move down the road at harvest Time. He basically needed to find a couple more 5000 bushel bins to go with the 4000 bushel bend that he already got for free get them erected fill them with augers buy an old used grain vac to empty them with and he was good to go for 3-5 years.
@@Otherrandomguy42 why do you care so much about what someone else does with their money and time? If he wants to go big that's fine. If he wants to go small then that's fine too. Not your monkey, not your circus so I'm not sure why you have to say this on every video.
Bcuz he got it for 7600 bucks when it's all said an done he may have over 20000 in it. Put up a bin site for that price now a days. Duh
@Otherrandomguy42 he said that there's not much storage in his area so he could possibly rent space to other people
@@Nick-tz2vlwell for starters because he's stubborn and pig-headed and won't take advice he should start to learn soon that just because something's cheap doesn't make it a good deal. He freaking literally had to piece together the Kenworth a little bit at a time because and in his words he didn't have the cash flow to pay the guy to do the work of what he told us was a $12,000 motor job. So if he had to take a year to cash flow that one out where the fuck is he going to get 60 or 70 or 80 grand to put this all back together. Lmao I'm rooting for the guy but he literally keeps shooting himself in the foot.

Legs have a lot of maintenance and the climbing gets old painting is expensive. With grain vac the power source is on the ground and you can disconnect when not using and store under roof. Sell leg and the bins are paid for.when you age you will be glad you don't have to climb. Less maintenance
Building a entire grain center when your Cash poor and have a 100 acres of corn and 100 acres of soybeans is a diabolical plan. 😂😂
Open your ears up, the leg cost 4 times as much, as he paid for the whole thing, your some mug, saying sell something that's already paid for. 😂😂
@@Otherrandomguy42 what are you babbling on about Sim Farmer, he has all paid for Mr Halfwit, the leg is worth 4 times , than what he paid for the whole thing. You Troll find it very easy letting light pass through one ear out the other, nothing between your ears to block the light 🤪😵💫🤡😂😂
Oh no its the one who knows sod all, you do realise all Farmers who have silo bins and legs, all grow old, talk about being a Prat. Do you think Chris is in his 80's.
