"It worked, I checked it. It was 28 pounds and it says to run a max of 24, so we're good" That made me giggle like a child
“We’re at 28 lbs, and it says max of 24 so we’re good.” 😂🤟🏼
At the time I watched this video, there's an active grain bin rescue in progress at a neighboring farm. The timing of this video has to be something special. Prayers to all involved
Praying for positive results
Praying all went well.
My dad mentioned something about grain bin rescue that has always stuck with me. Since rural fire departments are usually volunteer, there's probably a pretty good chance that they know the person they're getting called out for on an entrapment call.
My dad was a teacher in a town with population roughly 1000 or so, and there was a bad bus crash one year. Many students were injured and killed, and the worse part about it all was the firefighters and first responders called out were mostly parent of the kids in the crash.
@@cooperwill154 that's really tragic and sad
Being a racer you will appreciate this story . Years ago (70's) my older brother was in a tight 3 way fight for Cadet ( 302 ci.max, 2 bbl class). Every week the guy in 2nd place parked next to us and came over to "borrow " stuff from us ( bolts and nuts , TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE , etc. )- every week ! A few pounds difference in tire pressure could make a big difference in handling of race car , so after a few weeks of being a good "neighbor" I came up with an idea . We used several new , consistent gauges but I had 1 old ,pencil gauge with an aluminum indicator that showed the pressure - after a little , slight bend 20 lbs.was a far as the indicator would come out ! That was the gauge they were allowed to borrow every week - to set their pressure to 26 lbs ! Took them about 3 weeks to buy their own gauge !
You left out who won the title?! Lol, classic race story
Reminds me of the scene in Ford vs Ferrari where the Ford pit team place a bolt in Ferrari's pit lane and watch them freak out over where it came from.
That’s just gaming!
A friend told me where they had a training in repairing weapons, he went around and through some extra parts in the competitors parts boxes. Got really funny as some parts where still there and they where checking, reassemble everything again and trying to figure out where they messed up.
😄😄
Oh yeah, The release timing is perfect, I get to be an internet farmer while eating my food, conveniently provided by real farmers, re-enacted by actors like this. :)
I hate when my pin is to small for the hole
That's what she said too 🤣🤣
Hey Zach, there was a successful grain bin rescue in my area today! The farmer was very lucky because the first guys on scene weren't trained properly and almost cut open the bin. 😥 So thankful some people with knowledge showed up and got him out.
your father is a Legend, he is such a humble man. long way to go you millennial...
Grain bin safety is extremely important! My dad who lost his footing while outside at the top of the bin and fell to his death. It was one of the most difficult times of my family's life.
Unrelated note…kinda. I didn’t know there was an Alexandria, MN. But there is a USS Alexandria, a LA class submarine, homeported in San Diego. She is named after Alexandria, LA and VA. But I’m sure if anyone in MN was to contact the boat I think they would gladly add your fine town to the sponsor list.
You made me teary eyed with the announcement at the end! As a farmboy I SINCERELY APPRECIATE everything that you do for our community 🙏
Never got to meet my uncle who lost his life in a grain bin at 18, but I greatly respect the grain bin rescue as a fellow farmer
Wow , over 33,000 donated all ready ..EXCELLENT
The one nice part of those pull start Honda motors, they either start or they don't.
Honda small engines are a wonder of the world. If they don't start, you know there is a real problem that needs attention!
Zach. It is great that you are doing another campaign about grain bin safety, thank you for your efforts on this front, I know you guys a a tragedy near you last year and it hurts worse when it is close to home.
The bassist for Confederate Railroad lives two doors down from me in Alabama. Small world.
Keep doing what you are doing. I love that cause for the grain bin rescue fund.
I don't farm and I've never touched a piece of farming equipment in my life but I still love watching these videos. Zach is a big goof, always throwing out the dad jokes 😂 but on a serious note the grain bin safety fundraiser is so awesome. I love that hes using his platform for something more than just attention and fame. Those kids have a great role model. Showing them to care for others is definitely something kids lack these days.
So nice to see the good you do. Thanks for everything you and the farmers do. Keep up the great work.
Nice to see you are again promoting grain bin safety. Very good cause.
Zach, I hear that you have the same birds that we do in southwestern IN certain times during the year. Don’t you just love how they decorate everything that sits outside.
Not exactly lol!!
Thanks Zach! Please take some time to educate non farmers why drainage tile saves the day in a year like this. You get in the field earlier, roots go deeper, and with some tillage, the soils warms, become plantable, and more drought resistant with deep roots. Have a great, safe, spring.
Some people take some people give. The thumbnail draws you in the ending melts your heart. Damn fine folks.
Keep these coming. We almost bought a farm in Villard many moons ago, due to medical problems it turned out to be good that we didn't get it, but at least I'm an farm vicariously through your videos.
Still remember the live video of you guys doing that fundraiser. Kept watching the dollars come and was amazed. Nice job on all that, should be proud of what you and Randy did that night.
Great video and a fantastic service for farmers and their fire departments. You folks have very big hearts
Going to be watching more often. It's getting good!
Your Attention to detail is amazing
Thank you for all of your help with the fire departments!
When your dad said will it start, i knew you would be pulling the rope lol. Since the video where your dad and Jim were giving a hint which, which really meant Zach, go do that, i get a lot of laughs. You guy's all do great work. God bless.
Great job last year and thanks for bringing it back again . You guys should be proud of yourself small communities need this type of support . Zach you do a amazing job at this channel thank you and hope you have a great crop year . Hope the music concert does well .
You guys and girls are what make America go around the right way all donations that's solid solid thing to do thanks for being human beings like you guys are love you guys's videos and watching for years
Zach your so much more than a just farmer you are doing things to help Better your Community your always pushing important issues inside the farming community and beyond great work as always!!
Nice too see you guys up in Minnesota drinking best soda around!
Always put a blast of air into tyre and valve before using gauges as a small speck of dust in valve will cause issues with gauges to become ( sticky ) as when you put gauge on valve any dust in valve body will end up being shot into gauge when you connect it and eventually jam it up ( sticky ) . Ive had the same Dunlop one for 20 yrs and still reads accurate .
That may be our issue. Is there a way to clean the gages and get them working again? This would make a lot of sense
only way i know is to strip down and clean . although never done it myself.
You may consider letting some air out before checking the pressure to get some of the dust and dirt out.
"tyre"? You meant tires?
@@deadghost1964UK and US english, like neighbour neighbor, colour color , tyre tire etc.
Terrific cause for the grain bin safety!
you have a wonderful family , keep up the great content 🤟👍
Great awesome video zach , Nate , Becky , things are coming up good . Drying nice ,
I love that you donate to fire departments we just got our grain rescue equipment a few years ago I pray we never have to use it, but it's a vital piece of equipment to have.
You guys are killing it, let the season begin! I just finished some planting tonight, almost 3am I think it's time to ZZZzzZZzZZZzzzz... Looking forward to the next video. Props to you two for fighting the urge to pick rocks, I know how that goes. Compaction's a no-no after all.
Dad will probably say start planting Friday. Glad you guys keep giving back with these fund raisers
At 1:16 that reminded me of when I was a kid riding in the lawn cart we had with my dad towing me around in our old 80's John deere tractor thank you for that.
It's hard not to get antsy when the calender clicks into may. God bless you all and have a safe planting season
You’re getting close to a million subscribers mate! I’ve been watching this great channel for several years now . Watching from down under .
This was recorded the day before my birthday, and today it got posted on my birthday. So thank you for the birthday video!
You and your family are just awesome people in my opinion for always stepping up to try to help make this world a little better place. You guys are most definitely setting a great example of how to treat others so thank you! As always thanks for sharing the videos with us all as well and blessings to you and your family.
Thank you for the kind words!
The loud humming was the only thing that kept me awake while watching your videos🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Farm safety is so important. We just lost two fine men to a trench cave in at their new pole barn. Thanks for doing your part in helping save lives.
I guess I'm a "livestock guy", I have 18 angus. This evening I trimmed around the fences, came home and took a hot shower and remembered I forgot to turn the fence back on. Threw on some shorts, a hoodie and tennis shoes and went to barn. Found out a cow had gotten out. We got her back in. Not much trouble. Luckily the 17 others never got out. I wasn't quite dressed for that. LOL. So yeah, sometimes we have it bad.
I keep coming back just see Anna get a ride in the tractor... hopefully soon lol
thank you for doing the grain bin safety thing last fall, our local fire department got some funds and I believe the equipment/training they got saved someone local. sad to hear someone got in that situation but glad they got them out safe.
Echo #1
awesome video .really enjoy your videos. Thank you
😂😂 Check chain every day….I think that engineer had a sense of humor.
About those air gauges: I wonder what country they were made in? 🤔 And, remember . . . the reason they’re like that is ‘cause of the way they are. 👍🙏🏻😁🇺🇸🌽
Only 111,000 more subscribers and Ana gets a tractor ride.
Very good video good to see y'all again
Glad that you Southern boys are so close , here in Roseu Co I still have some snow in my yard . It is drying out here too
Thanks!
Here’s to a bountiful 2022 rock harvest!
Zach, your daughter is growing up fast good stuff man 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Makes me laugh every time you start an engine and Anna starts barking.
,, Me too Jim, 🤣
"Timmy's in the well again"!!
More likely "yip" or "yelp"
A few years ago my cousins cousin on the other side raised a bunch of money for rescue tubes for every department in the county then a couple years after that one of my friends who works at the elevator needed it so it was a good thing we got them
That's a great thing your doing.
Hello from Moosomin ,Saskatchewan, Canada Great videos thanks for sharing.
Hey Zach, we run the quadratouch on our dryer which is the same as yours and it makes it so simple to run. Also, we enclosed our blower with a small building with one window and a screen door then spray foamed it. Can’t hear it at all over the dryer fans running. Just crack the window and the window on the door and it gets plenty of air 👍🏼👍🏼
Pro tip for a gauge like the Blu Point: put a quick connect at the end of the hose so you can swap tire chucks. I have a straight nose for semi's, an angled one for other styles, a locking angled clip on for big tires, and a straight collar style locking one for trucks.
The female air q/c coupler goes on the end of the gauge hose, and each tire chuck gets a male q/c fitting on it.
This also makes it so that if you are filling up a big tire, you can put the locking chuck directly on the end of the air hose instead of having to stand there and squeeze the lever, or you can pop it on the gauge for fine adjustment.
Two other accessories I have;
A 10 inch long 1/4 inch pipe nipple with a female q/c connector on one end, and a Tee with a plug in the side port on the other end, and then a male q/c fitting in the end.
The Tee acts as a handle, and then you put the proper tire chuck on the end.
This is amazing for getting into the deep valves, or the ones where you have to hold the chuck at EXACTLY the right angle while pulling hard, and having the extra leverage and length allows you to stand comfortably next to the wheel, instead of contorted inside the rim.
The other trick piece is an adjustable pressure regulator, the type used on air nailers or your lube pumps, with a q/c fitting on both ends, so for tractor tires etc you can set the desired pressure and walk away as it fills.
You should put all that together and sell it as a kit.....sounds like a sweet setup
Good to see Rob is still at Sukup, he is a good Rep. and a great guy.
Hello I am a 70 year old farmer from Alberta CANADA have watching you since you started and enjoying it Can relate to many things that happening your life as we have a family farm. Your work to raise funds for the local rescue and fire departments is a great cause I only caution you about using go fund me after the things that they did to the freedom convoy by taking millions of dollars of donations and saying they were going to give them to another charity .Be careful of snakes they come in shapes and sizes. Keep up the good work we will be watching
Thanks Zack
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable.
Good to see your dad. Very humble person and hard working and pleasure to be around. Good to see you dad!!!!
Wonderful Zach you have your dad to farm with.
Zach and family. Congratulations to you all for supporting the grain bin safety program again. The last one was very successful. Doings like this one will be great with the entertainment and everything.
Great that you are supporting this important safety project.
Fields are a bit wet yet. Your dad thought it was ready to go but once into the field not quite yet. That spring time for you.
Get the rock picket going soon. Another project out of the way.
Planting season can’t be too far off. Be here before you know it. Will be interesting to see the updates to your dryer system. Your bin system company is a good one. Headquarters is here in Iowa. Family operation. Been on tours of their operation. Super.
Tire air level equipment. Never ending project. Do understand. Just saying.
About it for now. Will finally be quiet.
Looking forward to the next video.
Thanks for everything Zach. Thanks to Becky for editing.
The Iowa farm boy.
Steve.
Dads in a TEE SHIRT !! What y’all been doing all WINTER just checking seed tender come on MILLENNIAL 🙃🙃🙃
I like the digital tire pressure gauges. always worked for me and I've dropped them tons of times.
Good video good presentation to raise money to help first responders thank you
That is amazing!!!
Good stuff. Love the fund raising. I have a new Thunder Creek hat for ya! I’m in Alexandria tonight
I really thought you were going say haw yeah when he lined that ball up.
The pressure gauge that ALWAYS worked for me was the Snap-On gauge for fluid filled tires.
Thought I’d heard all of the tell tails but never heard about the frogs before!
Love your videos….I’m not a farmer but enjoy watching what you do. Air pressure gauges…..I had a problem similar to what you are dealing with. My compact tractor has loaded tires and a small amount of liquid comes out if you have valve on lower part of tire. Some fluid does stay in valve if it rotated on top. I now add a small amount of air to push fluid out and check tire when valve is on top most rotation.
Great video keep them coming
Zach you do a awesome job in the bin project to help the fire departments, I had a brother in law who worked for a elevator in Welcome MN and was there electrician and he went into a 200,000 bu bin plus cuz of something and then the corn started flowing again and he had another guy with him and he was getting sucked to the center of the bin and the other guy got out of the bin and down to the ground to shut the switch off and the fire department was called and got him out but his boots got sucked off his feet and they came out through the auger almost lost him, but Thankyou for promoting bin safety, you are a great asset to Agriculture.
This stuff is amazing!
Good to see Father MF is getting around well after knee surgeries. Enjoying all the videos.Southeastern Wisconsin has finally received enough moisture to get us out of drought classification.
I love Father MF. I don't think he has quite accepted his son working all day with a Go-Pro.
Unlike a lot of people you actually check tire pressure, grease daily and do every other type of menial maintenance. I applaud your work ethic. Greetings from LA. (Lower Alabama).
Will you be picking and grinning when you use the rock picker? 🤣 🤣
Great vídeo Zach.
Watching from Wisconsin we definitely need some of that grain bin rescue equipment over here and that concert sounds really interesting though I'm gonna do some planning see if I can make it hopefully I can run into ya
Awesome 👏 .
Had a bin entrapment happen to 3 young people in my hometown in Illinois about 10 years ago. 1 survived. They had to call equipment up from Moline/Rock Island to cut into and crane up to the spot in the silo.
Hi there, Zack thanks for the info on the Country Bash, I will try to get a group together come up from Southern Minnesota for some great music and great time, and a great cause. You should get Chet, Dougo, and the Big Swede involved this great cause.
I’ve been waiting for Ana’s tractor ride for ages now! 😂
Awesome keep up the good work
I miss working with my dad on stuff like this. You're dad reminds me of that same kind of go get it attitude, tough guy, hard worker, and probably a pretty amazing guy. When it's planting spring season it's go time, I get it and completely understand. I just miss doing that kinda work.
You got this!
Good job Zach
I laughed at the comment, there is a real good reason for using high temp grease, it's cuz that's what we have! Love it! Perfect reason!!
Milton used to make the best tire gauges.
They are all made in China junk now.
Idk why but watching the rock picker do it’s thing is super satisfying
I am on a volunteer fire department and grain bin rescue training is very important
