- That could have been much worse but still unfortunate. At least no one was hurt and the grain bin only slightly damaged.

Bob was on vacation this episode so here are some puns in his honour: It's BIN great to see no one got hurt while the winch tried to PULL a fast one. And: He went NUTS hammering out those bolts.
definitely got SHAFTED
Thank you Joop! I was having pun withdrawal!!
Now I'm receiving pun- ishment....... 😁 Honestly watching this vid 'lifted' my spirits until the fall....... But that's the breaks........ 😁
That was very punny…but not as pun-ishing as Bob’s! 😂😂😂
The boys will have to use their crane-iums to fix this situation
Ok LegArms, when lifting bin and crawling out, they need to block up with something so bin does not fall on you or who ever is getting out.
Enjoyed. Looking forward to seeing project completed
It was likely the bouncing of moving the bin that was shock loading the splines causing the failure, not the static weight of lifting it. So this is also a very good example of why you don't use your winch to hold down anything to a trailer or use the winch on a vehicle to hold it to a trailer.
But the important thing is no one was hurt. Also really cute dog.
Tell that to wrecker drivers. They don't use anything but their winch.
@@TheMetalButcher Thats why I avoid following them at all costs.
@@BlueDually4x4 Same. Wrecker drivers around me are the most reckless drivers on the road.
@@TheMetalButcher every accident they encounter they earn money. If the car behind them crashes, they're the ones to encounter the accident...
@@TheMetalButcher good drivers use safety chains
Farm Life. Something needs to be done, formulate a plan, set plan in motion, execute said plan….something goes wrong, formulate a plan. Rinse and repeat until the job is complete. I love it!
The good Lord had his hand on y’all! That could have been bad if y’all had been around it! Glad y’all are safe and little damage was done! God bless!
Two thumbs up for Brad a.k.a. Wiggles. Glad nobody got hurt with the bin drop. The struggle continues for bin moving.
1-3/4 😄
I am glad none of you would ever get under a suspended load!... ;)
And FYI, that kind of winch is not rated for overhead lifting, it has no load holding brake, and you can see why it is not supposed to be used for overhead lifting!
I know you won't change up your equipment for safety, but I would suggest at least adding a pulley block to cut the load on the winch in half.
Remember also that you add load from friction of the cable going over the boom sheeve, so the load that the winch sees is higher than the weight of the bin.
You also get shock loading when you are traveling which could be quite considerable at times.
Thanks Guy's....God Blessing to y'all...!
When you have a load in the air no one should be near it. Use tag lines, they will give you a chance to move out of the way in case of an equipment failure. Very happy no one was hurt.
Nick - a lot of engineers out there (I am one myself) are actually saying, "oh yes, that's how you do it when you need to get something done." So the winch failed, not the home made crane arm. Looks like a good tool to me!
Glad to see Brad back!
🙏 Thank God one of you guys weren't under the bin when the winch headed for the crapper 🙏🇺🇸
Nice too see “snakebite” is healing well. Glad no one was hurt when that winch failed. Have you guys ever seen the trailer that south sask farmer uses too move bins?? Anyways thanks for taking us along
Dude, you scratched your crane! :) Always a pleasure to see the Welkers at work!
Glad you ALL got to go home! Whew!!!
Hello from Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada. Thanks for sharing your great video’s please keep them coming.
WOW. Merle is a good looking pup.
Thanks for another great video. Thanks also for showing us all that the "struggle" to succeed is common to us all. The past two years have been difficult for all of us, without the drought, so thanks for the positive attitude!:) A lesson for us all!
Bobs Big Bud Bin Boom Busted....... Boooom, Breaking Bin
반갑습니다. 영상잘보고갑니다 오늘도 편안하고 행복한 하루되십시요
The important thing is everyone is safe. I installed bins around Billings for a summer back in 77. It was an interesting time. We used an actual crane on some of them and a hydraulic jack system on others. Come August, working the inside on those things was not something you did for more than an hour at a time. Had to trade off and consume lots of water.
Very glad no one was heart . and yes God was with you .
Iam watching your videos since 9 years and they are still the best of all UA-cam :)
Grettings from an Austrian Farmer :)
I watched that video of restoring the series 1 bud about the time you put it up and I have watched every episode ever since. Love your work. Love the attitude. Love the family atmosphere. Thanks
17:55 That's how it goes: "What goes up must come down..."
One way or another... 😉
As long as no one's got hurt... 😌
Thanks a lot for the video! 😊👍🏻
Definitely ingenuity at its finest guys does the job
Love seeing these machines. 👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🇬🇧🇺🇸
Winches are unpredictable and dangerous. I work on 10-20k cap. frequently and I've seen them do strange things when they fail. Glad it didn't happen when anyone was crawling around the bin. That boom you guys built is one serious piece tho. Pretty cool
Glad you were not inside the bin that would have rung your ears for a bit glad no one was hurt you guys are awesome
Thanks for the update Guys, it was great to see Wiggles. Hey guys don’t take any unnecessary risk when moving the bins. I am glad nobody got hurt.
Glad everyone is ok, no injuries. God Bless Y'all
Love Wiggles puppy. So cute!!!
Glad all of you are ok. So dangerous lifting heavy awkward steel
Gread vid shot of the Big Bud rolling over. American iron getting it done decades after it was made
Lots of verticle snap multipling the load on the cable n winch wh3n moving across even just slightly bumpy ground. Boom length n flex multiple the snap load
Thank God all of you AND Merle were clear when it fell! Merle is absolutely adorable! Wonder if Wiggles will train him to detect rattle snakes?
Glad no one was hurt,
Very thankful no one was hurt.
Nice looking German Wirehaired Pointer!
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable.
So glad none of you were next to that bin when it fell down. God was looking out for all of you. Sorry the winch failed. Bad deal. Believe you are right in getting a new one and not trying to repair the old one.
Great to see wiggles again. We all enjoy him. Glad his hand is better from that snake bite. Hi wiggles!!!!!!!!
To bad you can not move the bins right now. Hopefully when you get the new winch you will have some good weather days to try again. Glad the bin did not have heavy damage.
Always something to do around the farm. About it for now. You all take care and be safe. May god watch over all of you. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything.
The Iowa farm boy from years ago.
Thanks Steve, God Bless!
good luck and be safer guys
Im sorry for yalls lost. But I believe that the Lord will bless yall with somethang bigger.
Hopefully the weather holds out till you get that bin up on the hopperr bottom. Thanks.
Bien!!! Volvieron a hacer videos como los de antes!!! 👏👏👏
Glad no one was hurt, also happy you didn't try to repair the shaft. You guys take the safe route and sure admire you for that.
So thankful no one got hurt. That is one of those jobs you have to be close to the work but that is dangerous.
Tell LegArms that the Clutch doesn't stop the tractor... You may want to introduce him to the Brakes!!!
Glad you are all safe. Lord was watching over all of you.
That was a big project.
You guys sure got lucky on this Crain failure .Hope the replacement is stronger . 😉👍👍. Take care .
"Crain"?
Glad everyone was ok. Merl the pup was beautiful
Very very talented guys, nothing ever makes you quit, love it. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🤜🤛🤜🤛👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
That Big Bud still looks awesome after over 40 years!
Wow That could have been horrible thank God everybody's OK
I’m not from big farm land and never seen a bin moved that way. I helped move a few and we used jacks to lift them and took the rings off until it was like 15 ft high lagged it down to a trailer then moved it and put the rings back on it.
In 2000 my helitack team was sent from Nova Scotia Canada to Montana for the forest fires, first place we went to was Shelby MT 3 days for introduction then. they moved us to Darby MT. for 5 weeks.
Got my hats today. They are even better than I had hoped they would be.
Awesome, glad to hear it!
Glad you are all safe. Maybe you could find a wench with some kind of locking mechanism (or add one on) to prevent it from falling if that happens again. Have a good one guys! Wiggle's dog was a adorable.
I hope you guys get her done good luck and be safe
Good to see Wiggles back on the farm!
Really enjoy watching you guys work together!!
Glad you enjoy it!
Also this mystical text about you "backed up the butt with the crane against the bin" at 18:51. You have to consider how much you can eat for Christmas to be ready for Beach 2022, Nick!
The N14 "Red Head" engines are very good. Last of the 855 cubic inch engines, but probably the best. If your cummins is down on power it might need a 'hot-set' valve lash adjustment......or it has a boost leak,intercoolers are famous for cracks that leak, even in tractors.
We used to own a TV 320 and that is how they ride. It had the big flat tracks that don't tear up sod as much. And it shook like that on pavement. We used to plow big parking lots with it in the winter and any faster than slow and you can loose your dentures haha.
Big buds look more like monsters than farm tractors 😂stay safe god bless
Always put stiffeners on a hopper bin.
Glad to see no one hurt
I have enjoyed this post . Keep up the good work. I am glad no one got hurt when the winch failed !
I'm just really glad nothing really bad happened there!
Great video Nick LegArms and Brad
Wow, at least the winch gave out when it did and not over the new base that would have been a mess, just glad no one got hurt!
I know this happened a couple weeks ago but I’d really encourage you to check all the bearings and the journal’s as well as the bull gear for wear If you still can. Ideally when you reassemble you can check the backlash of the two gears to make sure you have the appropriate mesh. Failures like that don’t happen for no reason and it may not have entirely been the pinions fault. When you have poor contact with the gears or loose bearings/housings and they can push each other away that’s when you have a weak contact and the force is able to begin to shear the teeth.
i thought he is getting a new winch not just a shaft.
They're not rebuilding the old one. Clearly stated that they are buying new.
That Big Bud and you guys deserve a like new Air-Ride seat from a sermi-tractor with the hours you guys log in that cab !! Just treat yourselves to some well deserved comfort !!
As a kid there was a crew building a 5000 bu bin. Using central pipe/winch/collar (like your tire) first time I saw corded impact tools. Dad got upset. Guys going in/out of bin as being lifted. He told them. “Nobody goes in/out UNLESS every sheet but one fastened. So if winch fails nobody hurt…”
Next row put on. Guy inside cranking it up. Worker slides under edge, dad starts to yell. Noise, BOOM as bin hits cement. Cuts power cord. Guy who rolled out dang near passed out. Not 6 seconds later it would have killed him. I climbed held ladder to manhole, lower lunch, water to guys inside while 3-4 outside A frame jacks located, brought home.
Decades later I mentioned to crew leader unsafe actions I observed. “But it’s your crew”. 2 hours later they hauled guy to ER 15 staples.
Kinda chuckled when Legarms drove the loader backwards like that! I get it though it’s just sorta funny! God Bless!🙏🏼🖖🏼❤️
Good to see Brad. Beautiful dog. Stay safe everyone
It's good to see Wags to Wiggles back in the videos
You guys were about a month ahead of the game. To do it Montana/Welker style you could have had a bin drop instead of a ball drop for new years eve! All joking aside I am very grateful no one got hurt and at the end of the day that is what counts. God bless and be safe!

Tire Ballast is critical to any piece of equipment. Water weights 8.3 pounds per gallon. The Rim Guard I sell weights 11 pound per gallon. Won't rust and won't freeze till -35F. The best tire ballast available.
Welker Family - Thank you for reminding all of us that that the Heart & Soul of America is alive and well...
Never get tired of seeing a Big Bud move.
In the 70"s we had a Cat 950 loader which sounded a bit simular as that 435 BB. Indeed, never get tired of hear that roar.
Glad to see the pad being poured for the new bin. Also glad to see you being able to repurpose those on the hoppers. We’re you able to get the used bins you mentioned that you wanted to put up as well? Hopefully, next year you will need them!
Glad to hear everyone is doing well! Some great camera angles in this episode. Wouldn't 500 horse in the series 1 put other parts at risk of breaking? Take care and God bless!
Yeah that’s what I thought especially as he said it used to be only 250hp.
See this on a daily basis, farmer not paying attention to basis safety practices. Simple a have taglines on the bin would stop the swing. If the winch would have dropped while the worker crawled out from inside the bin, you would most likely having to explain to a family how much fun you had holding him as he died
Great video as always! Thanks!
glad everyone is safe.
That Bud is my favorite one, it's got a look about it that's just really appealing
I hope you put some blocking under the lower bin ring when Leg Arms crawled underneath to get out from inside the bin because that winch could have failed at any time and the results could have been DEADLY.
There is engineering and farmer-eering, and you guys do a pretty good job of it! 👍👍
It's good to see Brad again!
Hey guys. I'm in Missoula and my son's in Havre. Do you ever let visitors stop by?
Would love to see all the buds in person.
I'll ask
Tell us at least if they are as friendly as they look like. If you . . . :) Lucky Luke!
We moved a 24k bu bin using a semi rim in through the top. In hind site prolly not the best idea. But we had moved many 10k bu bins that way so we made it work
One failure in how many bin moves? Not bad at all. Things where going too well on this move. It had to happen. Hope the crew / family and you are doing well. Be safe and take care. God Bless. PS missed Bob's puns....
It’s a neat process that you guys make look easy!
finaly you guys take out my favorite tractor ..i just love the look of that 435
The shop looks pretty organized, LegArms, what ya gonna do?
I really enjoyed this video!! Thank you!
Glad nobody got hurt!
Glad everyone is OK. Could have been much worse. Love your videos!
Thank you!
Their needs to be a manual axillary brake system on that winch for safety reasons, as well as taking the pressure off the winch. They are made to pull 12 tons, not lift and hold.
i know alot of engineers who couldn't design that good of a crane
That 5 tones bouncing must triple or more thats why it failed. Its very luck it gave out there and not on you. Just be aware of a clear run so you can get away.
Hey, y’all shouldn’t walk under that bin like that! Yikes!!! Be Careful!! Me and my husband love your videos. We farm and ranch in Texas.
We will! Thanks for keeping up with the channel, we appreciate it!
