Short section of fence
Got a short section of fence done from the top of the hill down to the creek. Had a large limb fall into the area I was working in, fortunately I wasn't there when it came down. The base of the limb stuck about a foot into the ground.

20'x20' carport
Переглядів 1183 місяці тому
From start to finish, it took several days to cut down and remove the trees from the site. Got a load of gravel Monday and prepared the site. Had an issue with the framing not being square. Had to cut it off and weld it square. Worked on it a couple of hours a day and finished installing the last two rows of roofing panels Sunday morning.
Farm & Garden update for June 30, 2024
Переглядів 5494 місяці тому
I've been busy with the site preparation for the 20'x20' carport. The woodchipper has been awesome for removing all of the limbs. The first cut hay was a failure, only got 50 bales made, and normally get 200. Haven't had a chance to work on the baler. The garden looks good except for the sweet corn, which is a little sparse.

Finally, dry enough to cut hay. The grass was so tall had issues with it wrapping around the reel bearing. My fix for the issue. Picked up a 20'x20'x7' carport. The site for the carport and chipping up branches from the trees I took down. Hay is raked and ready to bale. Got a ton of firewood to split. Garden is doing good, need to weed and had to replant the sweet corn.

    "Leaking down." What does that mean? Mine will go up and down, but when I disengage the pto, it drops - the heavier the load, the faster it drops. Is that what you mean by "leaking down?" Thx!

      By leaking down I mean hydraulic fluid is leaking pass the cylinder. Usually a bad seal. The heavier the implement the faster it will drop. The 3- point will only work with the PTO engaged.

    Awesome job, Robert! I was wondering how you've been doing, you've been busy! That looked like a big branch, I'm glad it didn't fall while you were working. I cut up a tree yesterday at a friend's house, he said that Friday evening he was looking at that tree (which was still standing) and wondering how to bring it down without it landing on the fence. Friday night the wind blew it down on the fence. Made more work for him fixing the fence but less for me because it was already down. Thank you for sharing, Robert! I hope you have a great week!

Some of these windrows are huge. Gonna have to go slow baling. It would be nice to get the carport up so I can finally have a place to keep equipment out of the weather. The chipper is nice. Has a hydraulic feed and will chip up to 6" in diameter. Use it mostly for small branches. Bigger stuff I cut for firewood.

    Got an old 8n that runs absolutely great, just have to replace several seals and also figure out the 3 point leaking down. I’ve come to the conclusion that I really need to buy another 8n to have one running while fixing the other. Jubilees are running about the same price in my area, so thinking I’ll get one

      If its leaking down it's most likely the seal on the piston.I really like the 8N, just wish I didn't have to run the PTO for the 3 point to work.

      It was a pain to replace the brake light switch. Both of the brake pedals arms are in the way, and if I remember, there is a hydraulic line there also. It can be done just need to be patient and take your time. Not a job I'd want to do very often. Think the switch was about $80 from Messicks Part#86531138 just looked it up and it's gone up to $384.28 ridiculous

    That sucks. We have one of those on our 8n that we bought from a store called Central Tractor back in the mid 80s. Unit has been rock solid and worked like a charm. The original bracket you removed was part of the original style of swinging drawbar those tractors had. The original swinging drawbar actually integrated into the 3 point hitch arms and had a lock bar that would hold the arms down. A lot of those got scrapped over the years

    • @Rdrake1413

I've had a few health issues and will be going in on the 18th for a biopsy. Thank you for the comment on the fence. That back section has very steep hills and two creek crossings. The fenceline was never maintained after Grandpa passed away in 1985 and trees had fallen on it and floods had washed out other sections.

    Making a desperate search for an answer in the comments here. I have a 2N, slightly different pump. Had a very weak lift when I bought it. Goes up and down fine, but if there's an implement on back, it can't lift it. Rebuilt the pump this winter, brand new cam, cam blocks, pistons, valves, relief valve, and control valve, same problem. Found a very slight leak from the piston a few days ago. Put in a brand new piston and cylinder, the new style, STILL WILL NOT LIFT. I do not see any visible leaks anywhere, does anyone have any ideas? Control spring is adjusted per the book, no luck
