It's a small thing, but I always chuckle at the little seal pictures. I appreciate the time you take to keep this gag going.
I get disappointed when I don't see seal pictures and when watching channels such as CEE, keep expecting to see seal pictures. It is like expecting to hear tappy tap tap or release the schmoo, or "click".....oh wait, wrong vidjeo and channel on the doobly doo.
I love them too. Even if thier corny the kid in me loves the humor
I would sand it clean, spray with brake parts cleaner allow to dry and use one of those two part epoxy kneading stick gas tank repair kits. Work well on old plastic tank of dodge truck.
Most folks are not aware of the actual strength that welds provide. In fact, a one inch long weld that is 1/4" wide is capable of supporting approximately 2000 pounds. Judging by the size of Jon's new support lugs, I would estimate that each one is capable of supporting around 48,000+ pounds of vertical load. I am a recently retired mechanical engineer who performed pressure and load calculations on pressure vessels in refineries and chemical facilities for the last 43 years. Well done, Jon.
Two things cause serious uproar on diy YT channels imo, welding and electrical splicing/soldering.
People lose their $hit and it's so entertaining.
And it comes from a simple lack of knowledge and experience.
Bull-shit! That's a lie.
Welders and pipe fitters are an exceptionally arrogant group at times. The idea of an ugly weld that works seems to get them riled up@@thatrealba
Machine weighs about 6,000 lbs. each of the four pick/lift point carries a portion of that weight depending on how the center of mass is located front to back and side to side. I’m sure there is a huge factor of safety associated with what Jon (no H) has constructed.
it time to take a look at the pond you dug for your neighbor last year
I second that motion!
Video dropped on that today, you were a week, then few hours early
After a long week of crowded train stations and work in Tokyo requiring me to talk all the damn time, there’s nothing more refreshing on a Saturday morning than a plate of eggs and bacon while listening to and watching Jon entertain us all. Therapeutic. Thanks, bud.
No kidding
I just did the same thing. Except for the whole Tokyo and talking to people part.
Thanks for the latest post. For a content junky like me, its good to have a subscription like FarmCraft who consistantly posts regular videos on interesting topics which I can sit back and enjoy. Thanks again Jon
Dozer is barking at his echo, my dog is barking at dozer. It's an international language!
My dog jumped to, lol. Dozer making internet followers.
"I'm just gonna put together a quick venturi...."
John these are the exact golden nuggets I love taking from watching your work.
But really they're the bonus. Your show is just good for the soul. 😊

Great idea with the Mesh tape Used for Reinforcing drywall Patches Jon 8:26 @FarmCraft101
I can admit. You're the youtube influencer now. By your films you're forcing me to fix stuff that waiting for its turn somewhere around my workshop. Thanks
Jon « no h » : You and Marty T are my heroes.
I owned a Rut Tree Slayer on my mini excavator. I don't believe you will be disappointed. Good quality and great folks to work with.
Dozer is getting big! 🐕
On that pin you were fighting for the cylinder, you had the right idea at the end with that 3/4" rod and a hammer. Just need a much bigger hammer. The pin is tapered like you said, so just frozen in one spot. As soon as you move it even a tiny amount, it will be completely free - but takes a big hit! Trying to pry or pull it out won't work with it being stuck on the taper like that. I look forward to your videos every week :)
That 3/4 bar was starting to mushroom and I was worried I was going to get it stuck. Seemed better to quit that fight before I made it worse. ;-)
@@FarmCraft101 Yeah I just finished the video, you did great. It's amazing how much a taper can hold isn't it? Love Dozer, he's growing fast!
Use BIG hammer, then you might need only one hit. That will avoid mushroom problem. When using small hammer, in any job, you will mushroom anything.
the shorter the bar the better too. A long bar just flexes sideways somewhat when the blow is not perfectly straight. Keeping it short minimizes that flex and more of the blow translates to the far end. Also could weld a pipe section to the outside of the bar where is not in the hole to help direct the force of the hammer blow as well. Deadslow201 is correct you just need one GOOD hit. 🙂
@@whs2220 Good points from both of you. A longer bar flexing makes sense, would take out a lot of the energy. And getting it done in less hits
hey John just received my Farm Craft 101 baseball cap. Nicely done man.
Friday night, a cold beer and a new video from Farmcraft. Thank you Jon for taking the time to create great content 😊
Hello from Moosomin, Saskatchewan, Canada great videos thanks for sharing with all of us 😊
For a fellow backhoe owner, super kudu to your workmanship and as a former videographer for realtree outdoors,i can tell you the amount of work and dedication to film and editing is unreal. Many things. Your the man.
My grandfather always said ''When in doubt give it a clout, the bigger the doubt the bigger the clout --GET A BIGGER HAMMER'', you're a stubborn bugger John! all the best from NZ again
I have enjoyed this series. I was thinking of the old saying "patience of Job" when you were working on the frame leaks. I liked how you fixed the gas tank and think you could do a separate video just on that fix for anybody with a leaky plastic fuel tank.
I'm sure somewhere in the comments someone has said - removing bucket would have not only given some room and the leak would allow the attachment plate to flatten on ground. Thus allowing cylinder piston removal:)). Great Vid young man:)))
Jon, welding plastic is a tricky thing, but I was with ya, I was 100% convinced the zip tie would work! Great video! Been farming 30 years, but I learn something nearly every time I watch your channel. Thanks for what you do! Lee
Andrew Camarata has a pretty neat method for drying out the last of a fuel tank. He stuffs some blue paper towels inside and then sticks an air nozzle inside and blows them around
Quick Attach / Erskine Attachments out of Fosston, MN makes great skid steer attachments, great prices, very heavy duty. I could be biased since they're close to home but we use them for all of our equipment attachments like snow blowers, brush mowers, forestry mulchers, etc..
The most important thing to know is the flow rate of his hydraulic pump. The mower/mulcher must be sized accordingly.
Yup they take all of that into account during the quoting process and ask all the make model and specs of machines to specially build to spec for the specific machine.
Always entertaining videos Jon. How about a visit to the pond that you built? I think that would be cool to see how that turned out. That was quite a bit of work you did on that bad boy.
There will be an update video on it soon. I promise!
@FarmCraft101 awesome! Thanks, Jon. Like you don't have enough going on. I'll continue to pound the Like button and leave little comments no matter what. It's great real-world content. Sometimes, situations suck and you just have to power through. Keep it to the firewall.
I had a New Holland skid steer and never again, it very high Maintance, I was happy to sell it and now have a Case and happy.
Protect the gas tank with a rubber mat material. between the skid plate and the tank
For the drive creep adjustment, the two bolts you loosen to make the adjustment is holding a steel bar that is holding pressure on two cam folders. The steel bar gets divots worn into it and the cam followers are prone to seizing, this makes it extremely difficult to get it adjusted properly and it will fall out of adjustment quickly. You can flip the steel bar 180 and get a fresh flat surface or mill a bit off of it if both sides are worn out.
It took a while, but the seals finally showed up for the seal installation. Always a good laugh here.
Youre a great teacher mate, even though ill Never work on something like this, the way you go about it and show/tell us (even with the errors in doing it) is addictive and wonderful to watch and Learn from you. Youre an Inspiration to us all and I appreciate it. I hope I made sense there as im a bit of a blockhead with words. Cheers.
Saturday morning in the recliner with a coffee watching Farmcraft and learning! #daymade Thanks Jon for all you do!!
I think this was one of your better buys, Jon. Thanks for having us follow along 🙂
Brass hammer and a 9/16 Craftsman wrench!! You are my hero!! I'm always amazed when I see professional people using a steel hammer when they should be using brass or composite.
Really impressed with your work ethic and "can do" attitude. I could feel the despair at parts of the journey, but you soldiered on. Good job!!
I really enjoy the benefit Jon gets from the back-up team (the knowledgable end of the comments, that is - I am at the other end) . Just one of the many facets of a really enjoyable channel.
John, just another little trick to try on stopped up grease fittings. I've found that warming them up with a Mapp gas torch does the trick more times than not. They don't have to get cherry red, just enough to soften the old hard grease inside.
0:02 "Jon"
Thank you for sharing your project so that viewers can learn how to perform the repairs needed to keep a unit in shape. You are excellent as an instructor .
Your handling of the "fine adjustment sledgehammer" is commendable! 😁
I think it works on the same principle as a torque wrench. When you've hit it hard enough you hear a click.
@@KenFullman In the back...I usually tend to use a loader or a digger as a mobile press to adjust bent metal or to keep pressure before welding.
Nice repair! Congrats on getting Val's leaks under control. Are you going to install some lights and maybe some sliding plexiglass or polycarbonate panels on the sides of the cab to keep out the dust, dirt and rain and wind? Maybe a fan in the cabin for those hot days?
What about a set of forks to move stuff around? I bet this would be easier to do that with than having to fire up your tractor....
Cheers from Oregon,
Philip
hello john ive been a welder and fabricator all my life since i was 19 years old and im 64 now and still working not because i have too its because i love what i do to help people out as well as big buissneses. so i will say to those mounts you welded they are more than suffice and will not fail in service and if the arm chair crowd on youtube dosent think so they can go fluff there dusters.
I did liked the last little white seal that you edit, hahaha so cute, as all your work, well done.
Farm Craft 101 is my favorite channel. Jon, you're a pleasure to listen to and always funny. I learn a lot and enjoy all your mechanical projects!
Not one leak after you're done. That's pretty amazing. Congrats. You almost always expect something older like this to leak a little. Thanks for the content.❤
Rihno mowers are bullet proof. I've seen people smack boulders with these things on hundred horsepower tractors and they shrugged it off. All of the local municipalities in my area use rhino, they're an established staple name in the attachment industry, they're three-point tractor mowers are phenomenal, I have one and so does my dad, a lot of these have gearboxes on them that still run quad zero grease which is basically really thin grease. Farmer down the road isn't exactly known for taking care of his stuff, and for the better part of the last 30 years he owned the mower I can say with confidence the gearbox has been at least 80% water, I split the box cleaned it and filled it back up with oil, and honestly the gears didn't look like they were any worse for the wear. If you have an opportunity to look at a rhino mower next to most competition, just the thickness of the steel alone will probably be enough to sell you on them. Don't take my word for it though do your own research for sure!
I think the fuel tank leak was a factory defect. During the process of assembling the tank at that seam where the leak was, pressure was allowed to build in the tank and the channel to a bubble was formed. Once the skid plate was bent and came in contact eith the bubble, it wore thru, and opened the channel. I think you did a good job of repairing it. I think your use of the machine will be less stress on the chain boxes than original, and those welds will hold up. It looked to me like those were fatigue cracks from the stresses resulting when the machine bounced or lifted and dropped loads in its previous life. I always buy messed up stuff like that. My hope is that I can be more like you in overcoming the issues that come my way!!
Quick Attach Attachments, American made and made well with great tech and customer service. Have used numerous pieces of there equipment over the years and have never been let down. Great vid and soldier on my friend!
Glad to see you lube up that 7 inch pin really well before driving it home.
Saturday morning, cup of coffee, house to myself and a new Val video. This is the life
A few washers on the bolts along the rear edge of the skid plate between it and the body/frame of the machine might give you a little more room between the fuel tank and skid plate if you find it's needed. Easy to do.
Great idea!
My thoughts exactly.
I saw the o ring on the ground when you repaired the stud leak again....but looks' like you put it back on. Great vids as always. Really enjoy this channel.
No more fuel leaking Nice Jon 27:38 @FarmCraft101
You do a great job with your welding man. Some people have to find fault with everything. I love your vids….I’m glad I discovered you. Your narration skills are awesome. You take us along with you. Keep on keeping on.
I'd say the comments about the welding on the lift points were made out of ignorance rather than malice. Jon did the right thing by educating rather than calling them haters or something like that.
We have a RUTT Mulcher for our Yanmar 35, very nice piece of iron. Built well and have had zero issues with it. Can’t say on behalf of their skid steer attachments, but if its anything like the one we have you won’t be disappointed. Thanks for the video and take care!
Again, after watching your video I have a sense of accomplishment, when in fact I have not done anything and am ignoring my projects for youtube.
Thank you for your vids, really have enjoyed them! More than once have I gotten frustrated during a seemingly simple project on something I thought I got a good deal on, and found patience when thinking of your boom lift and dozer project challenges.😂 Hello from Grand Rapids, Michigan 👋
Fantastic channel John,I'm abit like you but in Australia,Jack of all trades but master of none.Its the joy and satisfaction when a job is done and the sense of achievement when it works out well and of course giving a finger to the experts and saving a buck.
Val stood no chance against raw Jon power. Your videos are absolutely perfect. Thank you for producting and sharing these. I always watch.
I bought the Gladiator from Rut for my skid steer to make trails because it has the carbide tips underneath to help grind up material. The problem is that it leaves 3” stubbles.
The hockey puck design of the blade bolts are lower than the carbide tips and they get the brunt of abuse trying to get a lower cut.
The Gladiator is built like a tank, very happy with the quality.
It will take down 4-5” material easy with a low flow machine.
"on wowo , that goes all the way in" , "that's a serious hole" :) Thank you! I was missing those!
24:26
I'm surprised that there wasn't even a comment on that 😂
Thought about it ....but then I already had made the comment and I didn't want to go at it twice...like John does :) @@Kremit_the_Forg
Hi This is Alan I have watched you for a few Days , with your projects I wish I had your Energy, As I have a lot of work to Do on a 30 Ton Excavater. Just a couple of tips
Before replacing any cylinder head
Always blow out the threaded hole with compressed air and make sure all the holes have the same Depth if
Any question run in a Plug Tap ,
And put engine only on head bolts
Never any oil in threaded holes ,
When arc or any type of Electrical welding be a careful, if welding near and around Hydraulic rams , as the Chrome rods can arc across the cylinder Id or Seal Glands Rod Pistons , I have seen many Hydraulic Rams. Destroyed From arcing, Keep up the Good work
It’s good to see you repairing stuff
Not Replacing. It if possible.
Cheers. Alan
Is it high flow? It matters for the bush hog. If you want more room under the tank you can cut a hole directly over the tank and face mount plate over the hole. I think on the New Hollands that adjustment for stop movement may also adjust the left and right wheel speed, so if you find that it's not going straight, that may be your adjustment. I'd still highly recommend two buckets. You'll use the toothed bucket as much as the straight bucket. Nice machine and good job!
Yes this is a point Bill makes and one I was going to mention.. I think these machines have an auxilary flow rate of 62 liters /min (if I remember correctly..)
He needs to know the flow rate and size his rotary cutter accordingly.
Your level of ambition and ingenuity is beyond MacGyver.. While I don't always agree with your action plans I am always impressed with your results. Good job Jon
No more creeking forward or backwards Nice Jon 45:28 @FarmCraft101
Grinder and paint, and percussive maintenance. You sir are a mechanic of my own heart. Hahaha.
Yaknow I've been watching ur videos for quite a long time, you never cease to amaze me John and you certainly never disappoint, you explain everything you do with perfection and admit when you don't know something, you also find the answer when you don't know and tell us. I really appreciate you and your content, please keep it up fine sir, outstanding job. Your in the top 3 on RUclips my friend.
I do enjoy a FarmCraft video on a Friday evening,
These machine refurb videos definitely make good content. Thanks for the effort you put into releasing these videos.
33:00 your becoming an expert at repairing these.
I was watching an old man who was a pro equipment operator.
He was working on a very old cat that had sat in the bush 30-40 years
First thing he did was look at the pistons clean them off and fix any high spots, file and emery cloth.
You wet a rag with thin oil and wipe the crap off them before you even run the equipment.
Same thing with a cars power antenna .
If you make sure they are smooth and clean they should last longer.
The old guy was in the outback down under, he got that old cat running and drove it
Great video John , I know I or ready as you if at all possible
To show some pictures of that pond you did last year 🤞🇬🇧👍
I’ve use an air hammer during my 46 years of aviation repair to remove rusty and stuck bolts. Seems the rhythmic action of the hammer loosens everything.
Well done Jon you picked the frame problem like a dirty nose. The give away was the extra counterweights. Skid steers work on the premise of a 60/40 weight split between front and back wheels. 60 at the rear when unloaded and 60 at front with a full bucket. Adding weight to the rear means that all 4 tyres are near even with a load hense they are working against each other. That would be adding stress to the components you addressed. Love your content and am an avid watcher of your channel. One of the few I subscribe to.
Jon, just love these old machine repair videos. Must see TV. Blue Diamond brush hog is great. I have one for my Bobcat.
I’d recommend a woods mower; we have one on our farm here in pa and it has held up well for us, we have used it for brush as well as chopping up corn stubble to bale. Very nice video as well; you’ve inspired me to be a better farmer and metal worker and wood worker with your skills and experience
Your videos are another reason to look forward to Fridays. Jon, you da man.
Jon, ratchet strap whatever your lifting to the hoist arms when you get them in place. Don't have to worry about any kind of balance once the arms are spread enough and the load is tied down! Hope that helps!
Thank you. Did the pond ever fill?
Now refurbish the bucket, I love ur videos they r better tutorials then the manuals
Jon: "Nobody ever plans to go slamming into anything." Me: "Obviously, you haven't met either of my sons!" 🤣
the auto parts store has a gum like materiaL THAT I HAVE used on gas tanks you just push it in the hole and it works look it up some time any way your doing a great job i am 86 in sept i have been welding and mech all my life you have been doing great
Maybe check into a flail mower instead of a bush/brush hog, I’ve never used one but flail mowers look pretty impressive for what you are going to do, keep up the great videos and I’ll keep watching!
I get a kick how you get a laugh out of yourself! 👍 At 48:55, it looks like the right side is higher then the left, unless that's the camera.
Sure does. I wonder if the lift is bent. Might show up when trying to level some dirt.
15 years ago i ordered an ac condenser from the USA but during shipping to Sweden it got run over by a forklift or something so i had it reordered. Second one came a few weeks later. I installed it in my S10 and started pulling vacuum in the system but there was a pin hole defect on one of the cells... It took 6 weeks since i first ordered the ac condenser and its now prime summer so i got pissed off and put a blob of jb weld on it. Ac still blowing ice cold 15 years later 🤣
Good morning from Southeast South Dakota
Best Friday notification!
Oh man, I watched to see how you’d get out the beveled pin. 😅 Front seal is leaking (after 26 years), but I had the other one rebuilt 2-3 years ago at a shop. Perhaps I’ll remember how I got it off. Thanks for the detail. 👍😎 I bought my NH in 1998, and it’s been incredibly handy.
Great feeling to see how well your repairs held up, turned a problem child into a real tool!
Good job John fixin Val’s leaks and issues 😊😊😊😊😊
Another superb set of videos. Your site deserves to grow exponentially.
I run a 2006 Caterpillar 252B and have a Carolina Attatchments XBC7 brush cutter for it. I have abused it and had literally zero problems out of it after 2 years. Always appreciate your videos!
Hi Jon. I absolutely care about how you spell your name. I'm glad you told us. I consider using, pronouncing, and spelling a person's name correctly a great sign of respect. P.S. My fav part was the diesel venturi!
@8:30. Happy to see you are using gloves when working with epoxy this time. At least in my part of the world - working with epoxy professionally require special training. I believe this is for a good reason!
Great video. Has the pond you built filled with water yet?
Great question. We need a pond-fill update!
Nylon zip ties are what I used to repair cracks around the fairing fixing holes on my Ducati. You need to plunge the soldering iron tip into the material to be repaired to at least half the material’s thickness using the zip tie as your filler material. Repeating every 2mm or so like you would when TIG welding.
Thanks Jon for another great episode. Love the short movies!
Great job Jon, always look forward to your videos. I too buy used equipment and use your videos as a "hoe to" or sometimes "how not to"...
I really enjoy your seals.
The zip tip is a great idea because the hole is in a spot that's not flat but if it fails a self tapping screw may be an easy fix. Just an idea. Thanks for the content from Jon. No h here either.
Just seen it again Jon, it was as good as the first time, awesome results, you must feel satisfied knowing that little machine is up to spec again, 👌👍 Javi G.
Suggestion for your shake siphon. Put a hose clamp on the hose on the end piece/valve....that piece has a tendency to fall off hose over time as hose softens from fuel exposure...just a suggestion.
I wondered how long it would be before the PC7 would come out! 😂
And yeah, I think there is wisdom in over-building those lift pads. No harm in KNOWING you are safe.
BTW, that vintage pipe wrench is the bomb! You make Fridays great. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
You're the man Jon, I aspire to be more like you.
Great video Jon ,you are a very talented person, and I love your can do attitude, I don't know how you get all those replacment parts, but I learn something new with each video. Thank you.
