    I must say that Pete has it timed to the millisecond to drop the sickle bar blade onto the uncut portion at JUST the right time 6:27 - other videos have shown this skill as well. Thank you, Pete, Hillarie and the rest of the players at Just a Few Acres Farm!

    Are you baling this hay? Or are you cutting it for another reason? I am in Michigan and we have had quite a drought so I was curious if you were skipping second cutting to bale later in the season.

    I spent many hours sitting on the Farmall Cub mowing the apple orchard. The Cub was really suited for working in the orchards because it was smaller and the sickle bar mounted under the tractor. This way you didn't have to look behind you to mow which was important in an orchard where you had to really watch out for branches. The seat and steering wheel was offset which made it easy to see what you were mowing.

    Sickle bar on an H was how my grandpa mowed all of his hay. Of course his sickle bar never ran as smooth as yours. He was always backing up to clear a jam. If I happened to be there when he was haying, I would often pull jams out of the guide bar on the end.
    These videos always bring back memories, thanks for this channel Pete, I appreciate you.

    The bolt on sickle sections sure make life a lot easier running a sickle bar mower. Turning at just the right time so that you can run the mower under the fence and miss the posts was one of the things that I particularly enjoyed. It was a game that I like to play. Losing meant changing out a sickle section and maybe a guard.
    Thanks for the video and the videos on Red Power Roundup.

    Excellent video Pete :) my dad use 1963 B414 McCormick International Loader tractor Desiel motor 40 hp , with a pull type on draw bar 2 wheels McCormick International 1966 number 10 ! In 1993 was only year he had put 1968 International 624 A Desiel motor 62 hp on to 1000 RPM Speed on PTO because hay and grass cow hay was thick and taller in height on 3 farms ! He said 550 PTO speed just didn't cut made mess and bung up ! So he need more power and when rake up to dry too also bales too was lots more hours on feild then normally!

    @CarbonPoweredLife Год назад

    Boy Pete you sure are right about sickle bar mowing being relaxing. While I was in the military, living in the desert I never cut grass. I so looked forward to when I would go home to cut some. I used my 1948 Farmall Cub with a sickle bar mower. Definitely very soothing somehow! Still have it, still love it, need to clip some now myself! Thank you for all the great videos!

  • @bethmotgomery2662

    Just curious, why do you not switch between tractors when doing light work like this? Not sure how often you use different tractors outside of the videos, just thought it might be a good little work out for some of the tractors you don’t use as often like the MD or F 20. Anyway, love the videos, keep up the good work.

    What type of power steering is that you have installed on your tractor? If I was to make a guess, I'd say that's power steering by Arm Strong, if I'm not mistaken. 😁
    This is my second cutting season on my pastures. I'm just using a rotary cutter at this stage trying to keep it cut down so the grasses can drown out the saplings, weeds... I love the mindset you get lost in while you're cutting where you can have some of your deepest thoughts. It's also a silly game I play trying to make my lines straight, trying to cut both sides at the same angle so your last pass is a full cut instead of ending up with a small odd shaped strip. lol...

    Never misses. A repair while farming. Guess that's why new tractors carry a tool box as part of the accentual. The grass got a nice hair cut and looks good. A little trim by the posts and careful not to nick the ears.
