Thank you Zeke. I didn't get anything real negative. I just like to joke around with the people who can't believe I do things differently . I appreciate your kind words
@@lucasrabe we don't have to much issues but ours just seems to keep going. There is a Brillion store still in Brillion WI (East of Appleton) and it has been renamed Landoll.
It's interesting how every region of the country has a different name for this implement. In my neck of the woods, it's a roller harrow, unless it was built by the Parma equipment company of Parma Idaho, then it's a rollaharrow.
Brillion does make a great seedbed. I’ve used John Deere, landoll, but brillion sets the bar. I agree they are heavy built. Even if you were to pull a disk with a brillion roller behind it that does a great job too. Ives had my fair share of long time use with each of them.. brillion is top notch.. great video Mike..
Hey mike, long time follower here , keep em coming, lots of wet weather here in ontario, havent had much dry ground to plant but managed to get little corn in so far. Fingers crossed it drys up. Love the vids my friend.
That tool does a great job reducing the clump size in the field. Looks like you could finish the job much faster if you added an Auto-Trak Universal to that tractor on this job.
"Welcome to another episode of I would have done it different" 🤣🤣🤣 I would have, in my ground, but I don't have a clue as to what works for you. I really enjoy your videos, Mike! Keep em coming!👍👍
Hello... excellent drone and driving skill in use as usual 👏 👍🏻. All the names for the equipment over there is brilliant but when I see some I call it somthing else I suppose its just a way to find a market or something eg roller Harrow 😀.. hope you get a set of folding rolls with paddles some day Mike as we wouldn't be without ours.. 😊. Stay safe 🏴
We had a brillion it was a 3 pc one 6 ft. An 2 3 footers all connected an hitched on the grain drill somehow it was called the crusher …..probably by my older brother 🤣
I have always preferred to call these culti-packers; seed bed rollers. Some use them before the run with the planter, some after the planter has planted. I do both depending the soil type and what is being planted. On ground with rock content, nice to run these rollers to push down the rocks after planting. Most land rollers, have smooth roller surface, whereas most Brillion culti-packers have notch rollers, that helps reduce soil erosion when raining. Regards, Bob
I've heard them called culti-packers or culti-mulcher, I've never heard them called bed rollers before. John Deere had the same type of roller. The Brillion just have a much bigger and heavier duty roller and frame compared to the John Deere. The tines actually look the same between the Brillion and John Deere
How deep are you running the shovels to mix in the fertilizer? I would love to try one of these in the spring before planting. Sometimes after we field cultivate.. we still have big soil clods, or corn root balls. I think this would really help level the seed bed, firm the ground, but not too much, break up the soil clods, and perhaps break up the root balls a little more. It’s the old root balls that really give our planter a headache.
It depends on the field. If the field is tilled pretty good I'll put the tines in a little bit but if it looks like it needs a little more I'll adjust accordingly
Howdy Mike, I hope ya'll are doing well, I'm surprised you don't have a land roller, they pay for themselves, in saved repair bills on equipment, especially combines, you definitely don't want rocks going through your combine, they have the necessary weight, to knock down those rocks, that will do the damage, we roll all our fields, except for hay fields, obviously lol Stay safe, God Bless and Farm on my Friends
Thank you Arthur. Maybe someday. I would like to get one. The roller harrow is working good now but for a field we are seeding over it would be nice to run the roller over it
@@mikep7810 someone would still find fault in it, lol. With our, odd vernacular around these parts, I’ve always known them to be called (are you ready for this?) a “collipacker”
Great job Mike! Apparently you are doing it right. Small, family dairy, still surviving. Don't let the negative people get you. Yall are awesome!
Thank you Zeke. I didn't get anything real negative. I just like to joke around with the people who can't believe I do things differently . I appreciate your kind words
Can't go wrong with Brillion.... We love all of our Brillion equipment. Always does a good job.
Brillion is great equipment. We love our chisel plow and roller harrow
Is it easy to find parts for older Brillion Equipment? Especially the older Seeders and pulverizes?
@@lucasrabe we don't have to much issues but ours just seems to keep going. There is a Brillion store still in Brillion WI (East of Appleton) and it has been renamed Landoll.
@@lucasrabe That depends on your dealership. We have 3 dealers around us that sell Landoll/Brillion so getting parts isn't bad
Great video. Nice to see the iron horses working. I went over some of the same fields your working on back in the early 80s.
I was just a little guy at the time

I've always called them roller harrow. It is interesting how many names that machine has
I'm always amazed by how straight Mike can drive with no GPS while working the drone
Thank you Dustin.

Good job
Thank you Scott
Awesome video Mike. I just wanted to say thank you for all prayers for the loss of my Dad
Thank you Scott. I hope all those prayers you got from everyone put a smile on your face in your time of mourning
@@mikep7810 yes it does
Looks like it does a great job.
Thanks John. It sure does
I used to pull what we called a culti-mulcher behind a disc, using a 4630. It did a great job on Michigan soil. This was back in the mid 80’s.
We diid the same thing in the 70s and 80s planting corn. Plowed, disked, then disked again with the culti-mulcher, Then planted.
Sounds like a nice set up
Hey mike, long time follower here , keep em coming, lots of wet weather here in ontario, havent had much dry ground to plant but managed to get little corn in so far. Fingers crossed it drys up. Love the vids my friend.
Thank you Bill. Hopefully it dries up soon to get the rest of the crops in the ground

It does a great job reducing the size of the clumps and makes a great seedbed

Thanks Morgan. If everyone did it the same way then it would be pretty boring to watch on RUclips
I guess it depends on where you're from. South Central Missouri we called it culti-mulcher.
I think that's what John Deere called theirs

Thank you Ian. I'll have to keep my eyes open for a good one
Looking good everything in our area is in full swing too!
Thanks Jerry. I bet people all over the country are in full swing!
Hi Mike, p you are doing a good job on the jhondeer tracker 🚜 you mite get down quick i do not see your dad yet
Thanks Amanda. That Brillion does a good job for sure
You are welcome mike p

Haha, they do a good job, that's for sure
Seems to be doing a great job! Great vid! We call them roller harrows on the west coast! Lol
Thanks Gene. I've always called them roller harrow
Good job mate 👍 Awesome bit ofdrone footage 👏 Have a good weekend
Thank you. I really like the drone footage too

Good video, keep it up Mike!
Thank you Richard
Sweet video Mike!
Thank you Glen
Great awesome video Mike
Thank you
Farm on ! Thank you
Thank you Noel.
Doing a great job: good tillage choice. That field has rocks like up here in northern MN and it looks like they all disappeared. Going back into corn?
Thank you. Its a great tillage tool for sure. The one field is going to be corn and the other has oats in it
Good job. It’s a good day to have a good day
Thank you Judi, everyday is a good day to have a good day

Your back window needs a washing mike so you can see better out the back
Thanks Brad. I'll have to wash it
Damn clean that back window 🤦♂️🤣
Is it bad? I didn't notice :)
What did you do to the window. Busy guys don't have time
I have that tractor on the manure spreader before I put the duals on it. Lot of mud kicked up going back and forth from the field
As long as you can see out it who care
I should clean it
Wash your windows! 😀😃😄😁😆🥲🤣😂😅🥹
Just for you John

@@codymccauly349 You have a good morning too

That's because it was an episode of "that's not how I do it". If it was a regular video it would be right!
