@@strhaivenswr I have most of the 12v tools at this point and haven't had any issues with any of them. They are great for the money.

@@rodcros That sounds like a nice setup you got. My next tractor will definitely have a loader. Thanks for watching.

@@SethHenigman Thanks for watching.

@@ThineLesser I may do that here soon. I haven't had any issues with any of the tools and have gotten several more since I made this video. Thanks for watching.

@@wemcal Thanks for watching.

@@BlahBlah122-b2t I plant it with a corn planter that is setup on 36 inch rows and it is helpful because I can till between the rows when the sorghum is small. Cover crops between the rows is a great idea that I need to look into. Thanks for watching.

@shepshomestead cover crops intermixed in between rows allows a sort of relay team for fields so your fields are never bare and you can have livestock graze off the cover crops, even chickens can highly benefit from them. The trick is the right mix, planted at the right time so it doesn't out compete your primary crop. For example most will inter-plant in between corn rows at the V4 stage of corn.

@@stephensummerlot3288 I would just suggest driving it around a little bit and make sure everything works as it should. You should be able to tell if the clutch is going out, if it is very bad. Good luck with it. Thanks for watching.

@@mrs.rogers7582 The variety is called Martin Milo. I can't remember which company I ordered it from but I'm sure it is easy to find. I only bought seed one year and have been saving it ever since. Thanks for watching.

@@rontropics26 It produces a pretty good yield. Thanks for watching.

@@cdfps750 It is super handy. Thanks for watching.

Thanks. It's done everything that I've needed it to do. I believe the 254 is the series right before mine. Thanks for watching.

That sounds awesome! I hadn't thought of doing that. I'd love to see one of those conversions. Thanks for sharing

I don't happen to have one but you may be able to find a service manual online and that should have one. There may be one available online somewhere but I wouldn't know where to look. Good luck and thanks for watching.

I actually just recently got the 3/8 impact. I really like it too

No need to brag bud lol. People buying HT are most DIYers who don't wanna spend a bunch of money on higher end tools. Personally, I only buy milwaukee fuel and non fuel and I'm just a DIY guy who sometimes does side work.

I'm sure that mice could probably get it if they wanted to. My biggest problem is birds getting it over a long period of time. If the sorghum was stored in an enclosed area it would be better. Thanks for watching.

You're welcome! I'm glad it was helpful. I've found the hammer rack very useful.

Cool idea. Thanks for the tip and thanks for watching.

I just use the greenhouse to start my plants from seeds in the spring. It's nice to have a place to keep all of my seed starting supplies together. In the summer it gets very hot inside the greenhouse so I haven't really used it for anything then. In the fall and winter I use it to store sunflowers and sorghum that I grow for my chickens. Thanks for watching.

Thank you. I ordered mine from a place called Belt Palace but there are a lot of different places that sell it. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll have to check them out.

@@shepshomestead self adhesive rubber strips. theres a 12x 12 and a 17x4. choose the latter

I will have to see about doing a video on the 235. Thanks for watching.

I have a 245 and would recommend pulling a 4’ tiller. Anything bigger could make it work to hard and overheat. Same with a bush hog…..stay with a 4’ and you’ll do fine.

Thank you. It is a handy tractor for sure. I've never seen a 4wd one but I imagine the lever would be near the gearshift. I've never had a rotary tiller for the tractor, nor have I ever used one. I am sure the tractor would do fine with a 4 foot one, maybe even a 5 foot. Like I said, I don't have any experience with one and don't know how well the tractor would pull a larger one. Good luck on the 255 you're looking at. Thanks for watching.

The 4Wd shift knob is just inside your left heel. Slide it ahead most times to engage. Use the clutch and your fingers if it won't.

That's good to hear. I haven't tried any of their 20v stuff but I'll have to check it out.

My tractor doesn't have power steering and I don't have any issues with it being hard to steer. Mine has the wider front tires and I'm sure if you had one with the 4.00s on the front it would be even easier to steer. When I have the suitcase weights on it, it does make the front noticable harder to turn. The tractor is light enough that when you have an implement on the back, it will steer easy anyway. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

I've only found it online. I haven't seen it in the stores that I've been to.

Also, which state are you located in ? Temp zone?

Unfortunately the way the opener works you can't have a screen in the window. I live in Indiana and only use the greenhouse for starting plants in spring and early summer. Thanks for watching.

I didn’t think so but just wanted to check. I am zone 6 in Eastern WV.

I have been really happy with the coop design but have made a few changes to mine. Thanks for watching.

Honestly I'm not sure. If I had harvested all of the sorghum I had grown, I probably would have had somewhere around a bushel of threshed grain. I didn't harvest it all so that is just a guess. Thanks for watching.

I like the IH 29 cell soybean plate for planting green beans. It is number 489111R1. There are sunflower specific plates but I don't have any. I just use large flat corn plates like a Lustran C11 or C8, depending on how long the sunflower seed is. The corn plates will usually plant heavy but I go and thin them out by hand once they start growing. Thanks for watching.

@@shepshomestead hey shop, I think my planter is missing some sort of plate that sits under the seed plate. Is there anyway you could take some pictures?

@@shawnwebster3948 Do you have the same model planter I do? I have seen some that have a solid bottom that the plate sits on. Mine is not solid and would have had another piece that the plate sit on. I am not sure what the original ones were made of. I took some thin cardboard (like from a cereal box) to make a piece that fit under the plate. It works fine and I haven't had any problems with it.

@@shepshomestead okay that sounds great! Thank you so much! Really appreciate the help

@@shawnwebster3948 Glad I could be helpful. I do plan on making a more detailed video of the planter in the near future.

Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching.

It is a differential lock. If one side loses traction and starts to spin you can push it down and it locks both sides together to give it better traction. Thanks for watching.

I appreciate it. I guess mine is stuck in 4 wheel drive then. It sounds like it's a very low gear.

Thanks for watching.

I'd like to add that and the long ratchet to the collection.

Nobody cares honestly 😢

Don't sleep on 12v platforms in general. For jobs around the house or small jobs its nice having a lighter weight tool and usually more compact too.

Thats a lie they are plenty strong enough i own these and milwakuee and these are stupid good for the money

Oh so you’re that, guy. thinks he needs a 60 V drill to drive 2 inch drywall screws ETC.

@@youtubeuser5424 no one said anything about 60 volts. i use 20 volt dewalt drills to do much more than shooting screws drilling big ass holes too in metal and wood and other materials too. sometimes it takes everything that drill has and i got a dewalt DCD 998 and thats a pretty strong drill for what it is. Also use the hammer mode for drilling holes in concrete these dewalt drills last me a good while too. only had 3 dewalt drills within 20 years

Was it the regular or the fuel? I heard the regular multi tool is like the worst product milwuakee makes

The regular m12 multi tool is an absolute joke

@@Nicky14P it was a regular m18. But I also had a few issues with fuel products. Like a drill where the gear box seized. And now my m18 fuel grinder has some gear issues too. I’m not saying that Milwaukee is bad, I have everything from them, but it’s not Festool either.

I've been using a Fuel Milwaukee multi tool borrowed from a buddy and have really put it through its paces. No issues.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you!

Thank you. It was a fun build. It is holding up great. I still haven't done anything to the floor but plan to in the spring. Thanks for watching.

@@shepshomestead how does it due in the winter with keeping heat?

It gets warm on a sunny day but cold at night. I haven't tried overwintering plants in it so I've never tried keeping it warm.
