I hit on the name for this because I have Farmalls and Allis Chalmers tractors and related equipment. I grew up mostly on the Orange ones, riding around on the toolbox of a 52 WD with Grandpa. Still have that old girl and it still runs. I consider myself to be a give credit where it's due kind of guy, that's where my interest in the Red ones got started. Meadow Green, Oliver tractors and equipment interest me too. Currently have 3 plows but that's it. Would like to have something from a super 55 up to a 2255, should be able to find something. An uncle has a super 55 I've offered to adopt... Time is on my side.
I have a small farm in central Ia. where I try to keep these things working. Moldboard plowing is one of my biggest interests, currently have 18 and always seem to be hunting the next one. This channel will focus on the tractors and equipment, daily maintenance and such. Also enjoy hunting and fishing so some of that may get sprinkled in.

Kalsom plow day 2023

This is a compilation of clips shot at Mike's plow day last year.
Luckily your tank is sort of squarish to work well that way. I have a Farmall Cub that has the tank as part of the hood, would be a little bit trickier to pull that off, lol.
You're right, the shape made it easier to work with. When I did the one off the 756 it was bigger and harder to manage.
Nice way to clean a tank and get some work done in the process. The tank on my Oliver is rustier than I'd like. I put an in tank screen on the inlet for my sediment bowl and haven't had any trouble more trouble from rust. That's a nice 185, those are good sounding tractors. Thanks for sharing, Mike! I hope you have a good one!
Thanks. I hope it got clean! time will tell I guess. Yeah, the 301 Allis is a sweet engine, I'm a big fan. Hope life is treating you well Evan.
I have a CA tank you can do next. lol. My son’s puller build has some nasty old gas and a little not a lot of surface rust.
It's really not too bad to do. My one CA tank had damage, pinholes. Tried to braze them up but never got them to seal, finally coated it with por 15. Like to have a better tank for it but CA tanks are hard to come by.
@ they are. This one has a dent but not really worth fixing due to going on a puller. I never tried that sealer.
@@justinblain928 The por 15v worked good, just follow the instructions to the letter. I don't coat unless really necessary. My tank could be fixed with body putty but I would prefer a nicer one, someday.
@ I’ll check it out
Hey Mike! My grandpa had one of those garden seeders. He had trouble pushing his so he tied a rope on the front and he would use a grandkid for pulling power. I don’t remember seeing it after he passed away, I don’t know what ever became of it. Really handy little planters. Thanks for sharing, Mike, that brought back some good memories. Hope you have a good one!
Glad you enjoyed it Evan. I'm getting caught up on the video I shot last spring now so things will slow down soon.
That little Cub runs like a sewing machine! It looks like you have a lot more fun using that tiller than I do with my old Troy Bilt. Thanks for sharing, Mike!
Thanks, that thing makes gardening so much easier it's hard to describe. I don't mind a little work but not going back to a walk-behind! If you remember from the equipment tour, have another No. 2. It will probably go on a 782 eventually. Have Dad's monkey wards in the shed, needs some work yet. Probably try to fix, then sell it! Man, looking forward to retirement, will attack the project list with a vengeance, when I'm not fishing!
Thanks for bringing us along, Mike! It's good to see a variety of tractors working together. Looks like quite a few pickers showed up, that's really cool! Thanks for bringing us along, Mike!
My pleasure Evan. Always a great turn-out for this event. I've got some ideas how to make the videos better going forward, hope they work out.
Howdy, Mike. If that 1600 was in decent shape, that was a steal of a price. I would have liked to see the mounted picker with the sheller. At least you found a couple treasures to bring home. Hope you have a good one!
Evan that 1600 was not a bad machine by any stretch. I have 19 tractors now, kind of picky what no. 20 is. I'd really like to have a 770 or 880 or something from the 50 or 55 series. The floor jack, (5 ton) will be a great asset around here! I have a still picture of the picker I could send you, e-mail is in my profile. I left you a second reply to the other video, don't know if you saw it? The Gleaner "Z" engine in that one is a 226 like what would have came in a 170, I think. Pretty sure they were 8 to 1 compression. Made pretty good HP,m not sure what rpm they were governed at? As always, thanks for watching! Kind of hard to believe how this is progressing.
@@MikeJensen-wo7oh I did see the other reply, I guess I forgot to respond to it. My cousin has a WD45 with a Gleaner engine in it that he pulls. I was just curious if it was the same engine or a different one. I still think it's funny that I ended up with a 770, I wanted a Super 77 or Super 88 but I got this one cheap. For a long time I didn't like the looks of the 3 digit tractors. They grew on me, I guess. I'm glad your channel is growing well! That's pretty cool! Hope you have a good week, Mike!
@@evanaustin2636 Thanks! over 100 subscribers already, would have never guessed that would happen this fast. I'm going to work on a video of changiing the wheel center and mounting the tires on the 400 pretty soon. Starting to learn how to do a little editing with the iPad.
We are doing plow day today for the club. I’ll be posting some shorts later today of our Allis stuff and a couple other tractors
Cool! Where are you located? We were supposed to plow here this weekend but just too wet. More rain in the forecast and low temps aren't helping. May get to shine some moldboards yet this year but not looking good now.
Here in Mexico we grow corn and wheat in rows 30 inches apart. wheat in four-row furrows. Greetings from Yaqui Valley Mexico.
Thanks for watching and greetings from Iowa!
You have good agricultural machinery, greetings from Mexico.
I like how this is the "last" installment, until the next auction LOL! You've got a nice selection of plows. That Gleaner engine, is it the Gleaner version of a 226? I know the tractor pullers like those. You've got plenty of stuff to keep you busy in the new shop this winter! Hope you have a good weekend Mike!
Thanks! There was an auction yesterday I went to yesterday only bought a floor jack and a set of transfer punches. Bid on an 88 Oliver, gave up at $1750, it sold for $3100.
I missed the part about the Gleaner engine. Yes they are a 226 like a 45 has with some minor differences. Crank snout is one and the journals are the same as a D-17 has, pretty sure. Many have been put in WD's and 45's.
👍👍
Thanks!
Love the cub cadets !
Thanks, they are fun to tinker with. Get a lot of work out of some of them too.
That must have been some really hard ground. The plow was doing a really nice job! It gave the 856 a good workout too! I wonder sometimes why people were still buying shear pin plows by then. I'm sure they were cheaper but what a headache. I remember in Mike Kalsem's video, the plow behind the 2150 kept tripping bottoms, I wondered if that was why he was going so slow was to try and keep them in the ground.
Thanks for tuning in Evan. No idea why that plow was speced the way it was? That dirt really plows pretty nice, was running in low 4 direct at pto speed, probably 5.5 mph. I am really impressed with the job it does , very nice. The 2150 in Mike's video leaves me scratching my head. Someone else was running it earlier in the day and going faster. In dry conditions, auto reset bottoms will trip on the toughest dirt. Seen that on the Skunk river bottom several times. 720 IH plows, big ones behind Big Bud tractors. Hopefully get some footage of that someday.
Howdy, Mike! You definitely like your Cub Cadets! My uncle is a cub man, he has a 129 and I can't remember what his other one is, 102 maybe? I'll be looking forward to more of the story on the stuck 756. You've got a pretty impressive collection, Mike. Thanks for sharing it with us!
Thanks. I did some work on the 7 today. Decided to change the oil, had gas in it. When I dropped the plug, first thing I saw was green. Ughh, Don't even want to think about that! Guess we'll see where that goes. Have a good one!
77g rake
Thanks.
I've got shop envy...that's really nice space! Your 1066 looks mean with the duals on. I'm with you on switching to 30 inch rows, I'm on 36 also because of the picker. People want a fortune for narrow row pickers and if I bought a different combine I'd probably have to sell the picker and the All Crop, and I really don't want to sell the All Crop. I'm glad you found a head for the 450, those are really nice tractors. Thanks for sharing, Mike!
Thanks Evan! The shop has been a long time coming. Feels kind of strange to have concrete, and warmth. Probably do some shop updates as we go along. I ahve a really nice work bench in another building that will be going in, not till next year though. Going to purchase a decent toolbox and storage cabinet possibly. Have a better drill press to get moved in... Really lookiing forward to getting back to work on the 450!
Slat plow was a 70 series. Grain drill is 11x7. Ca disc is a model 20
Thanks, had to dig out Norm's bible to figure out the difference between 70 series and 80 series. The semi- mount is an 84 as it has the cushion trip bottoms.
Lot's of cool old equipment there! Wish I could get my hands on some of it!
Thanks! Took quite awhile to accumulate all this treasure.
Another good video, glad I found ya. Good lookin tractors. I love my D 15 ser 2 with factory 3 pt. I put new tires on it and it goes to the wood lot in winter and hay in summer.
Thanks again! With a little luck and weather permitting, the 15 is going to a local plow-day next Saturday, along with the 856.
Good video, Im also IH and AC. Picked up D17 ser 1 this summer and I wish I had those tires.
I like those D Series Allis Chalmers. My dad had two D19's. A gas and a diesel. One was his loader tractor. Had an F11 Farmhand loader on it. In the winter he would put a comfort cab on it, and rear tire chains. It was amazing how much diffetence that comfort cab made when it was cold as hell out. Like below zero. The way the operator is positioned on those tractors, it got really nice and warm down in there. It was a little bit of a pain getting on and off, cuz you had to crawl up over the back of the seat, but it wasn't the worst thing in the world That thing fed a lot if cattle over the years. They were good tractors. Trouble free and very dependable. And I like the way they looked too. They just had a really nice look to them. I spent a lot of time on one dragging a four bottom plow around with one if them. And they were good haying tractors too.
Is the tachometer drive on that 6080 come off the back of the alternator?
I don't think so, it's different than 100 series tractors but can't remember how it drives for sure. The tach still works just the hour meter that is on strike.
Glad you finally got this one to load! Videos used to take a long time to load for me, now they are loading pretty quick but I don't know what is different. I'd be interested in that subsoiler, we may have to figure something out! I love that All Crop drill. I've never seen one in person. I found one on Craigslist a few years ago, they wanted a FORTUNE for it. I think it's awesome that you have your Grandpa's WD. My Grandpa had a WD45 he bought new as his first tractor, my uncle has it now. Not much of it is original, it had a pretty hard life. Thanks for sharing, Mike! I hope you have a good one!
Thanks! Well, the sub-soiler isn't going anywhere, we'll figure out something. I'm going to buy a laptop or I-pad or something to help with this stuff. Went to Wisconsin on my annual beer run today, good times! Help coming tomorrow to move the 450, maybe shoot part 4 then? Thanks for watching!
@@MikeJensen-wo7oh Got to get stocked up before winter hits, LOL. If you buy a laptop, I would not recommend a chromebook. That's what I use, they are cheaper, but there is almost no software that is compatible with them. And it won't talk to my phone anymore so getting videos off the phone is a major pain in the ass. I'd like to try something different, but I'm cheap...unless we're talking tools or tractor stuff...
@@evanaustin2636 Well, I'm an Apple guy so something from them for sure. I'll get there, in time. Really happy this got on there, finally! Hopefully it's dry enough to plow next Saturday and I get plenty of video, and can get it loaded!
Thats a New Idea running gear
@@JohnIckes-s1j Thanks.
Howdy, Mike! I got confused when the title said "part 3," I thought I missed one LOL. Hopefully part 2 will get loaded ok. Some videos load easier than others for some reason. I like your Kinze, you don't see many small ones. I've seen one near here that is a 4 row with the split row units on the front, that's the only row splitter I've ever seen that small. Looks like you've got a good collection of Cub Cadet stuff too! Thanks for sharing, Mike!
Still working on part two. It's about twice as long as this one, lots of random stuff. Then, down to two buildings and some misc. stuff. You may see part four before two! I may re-shoot two with the go-pro and try again. I missed one Cub Cadet and probably some more things. I like that Kinze but am looking to go to 30" rows at some point. Of course, then one needs a different corn-head too. My cousin used to have a 4/7 Kinze before he went to 30" rows, it was a really nice planter. Thanks for looking in!
You shouldn’t ever get bored, plenty to work on. I found that plow video, haven’t had a chance to watch it yet. Thanks for sharing, Mike!
You should see what's to come! I think you'll like the plow video too. Thanks for checking in.
Nice variety of tractors there! Thanks for sharing, Mike!
We are supposed to plow up there again this coming. Saturday. With all the rain of late, not looking like it will happen. I'll bet we get it done before the ground gets hard though. Have a good one Evan!
3 bottom slat plow...pretty cool! Don't see many of those
That is a pretty darn good plow Evan. Actually have another one very similar to it but in rough shape. Have toyed with setting the other up as 3-18's, that was a Doctor Allis idea. Thanks for watching!
Pretty good pull, but she did it!!
Yeah, that little tractor punches way above it's weight class! Thanks for watching.
14ft disc!! Not bad for a Wd45! Are you running fluid in the tires or just weights? Good video Mike
No fluid, not a fan. Three sets of F&H weights, think they are about 150 lbs./each. The video has more dead time in it than I would like but such is life. Will work on the editing this winter? Tahnks for watching Evan.
Evan said to check out your channel. Pretty good looking project! Took some talent to bust the wheel center, unless it was a bad casting..
Not a bad casting, explanation in reply to Evan. Thanks for watching.
Evan sent me over, subbed in look fwd to seeing what you get into!
Thanks.
I like those ole Farmall tractors It looks very straight from here
I've got quite a bit more footage of the 400, stay tuned.
She looks pretty nice to me! A whole lot better than my 770 when I dragged it home. I wonder how they broke that wheel center??? New center and some new rear shoes. Thanks for sharing, Mike!
I know exactly how that center got broken. This is a long story but I'll cut to the chase. Guy I bought it from used a Case end-loader with big forks to load these tractors on a trailer. He bought a collection, I think there were 46 Farmalls. He might have been in a bit of a hurry. He put a fork through one of the holes in the casting and one under the belly. Mine was not tho only one that got broken. It's an interesting story but I don't type well enough to tell it all here!
@@MikeJensen-wo7oh That makes more sense. A hammerhead in a hurry and pallet forks is a great combination LOL. Hope it isn't too hard to find a good center
@@MikeJensen-wo7oh oops... Well, if you had the missing piece, not hard to weld back in, no one would ever know, if done right 😎
@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin I did have the missing piece actually but opted for a new used center a buddy had. Never thought about welding it and gone to scrap now.
