Seasoned Firewood vs. Fresh Firewood
Переглядів 506Рік тому
How you too can tell the difference between seasoned and fresh firewood. This seasoned stuff shown here is about 8 months seasoned. Beware of stuff called "seasoned in the round," which means they didn't split it for a long time after they cut it. Not a great idea, you have to split it and expose the grains to dry it out quickly or it will retain moisture and begin to rot. That's the whole poin...

Working John Deere 330 Round Baler
Переглядів 592Рік тому
I've been restoring this old 330 baler from an auction all summer, and I think its finally ready to go bale. Its been an experience. One of the tension rollers was shattered, several bearings were shot, tension arms were almost wore through, pickup teeth were gone, cylinders were leaking, gear box needed new seals, bale size alarm was broken, driveline was siezed up, and probably something else...

    We just hired a guy to put in 1250' of 6 strand barb wire fence. Had some brush, mesquite, etc as it is just unimproved cow pasture. We put double H post on all the high and low spots. The double H assemblies are 24' which includes the kickers on each end. Post are 2 7/8" pipe, 8' tall and in the ground 3'. They are 6' apart with the "h" pipes. The kickers on each end are set 6' out also, with a short pipe set in ground for bracing, all in concrete. Each end of the run has a similar set up for the corners. By setting the H's on high and low spots, we were able to pull fence wires with no problem, and no perceived leverage of wire trying to pull the pipe out of the ground. Also pet Tee post on 10' centers and 2 wire stays inbetween each. Run us about $7,000. Your mileage may vary. ;)

    I would assume the terrace was put in for crops. If you are doing only hay or pasture I wouldn’t think you needed them anymore, no erosion with established grass.

    • @bignatehobbyfarm
      @bignatehobbyfarm 11 місяців тому

      Yes, when we bought the land it had years old corn residue on it. I worked the terraces for months with an 8' box blade to make them more friendly to a hay rake, but in the end that's a serious amount of dirt to move. Plus you still have to keep it friendly to water run off.

      If you have a small tractor with small acreage, it works great. The working width is more like 5'. So if you work more than 5 acres you'll be out there on the tractor for quite a while. I've since upgraded to larger equipment, where are you located? I might sell mine....

The only issue I've encountered was an O-Ring failing on a hydraulic line connection.

      Yes it is expensive, and I've found out recently that it needs to be used within the season you buy it because it goes bad. Well, not really bad but the effective ingredient that keeps them gone for a long time peters out. I spread some old stuff this spring and it worked for a little bit, but now they've all come back. Normally, if I apply early spring I won't have to apply again until early fall/late summer. So count on 1-2 applications a year.
