  • Today we are finishing up some important tasks before we are headed to the Horse Progress Days in Lancaster PA! We are mowing the lawn with Baron and our one horse mower and we wanted to share a little more about the mower and how it works.
    We hope to see some of you at the Horse Progress Days in Lancaster, PA ► horseprogressdays.com/2024-ev...
    Watch our videos to learn about draft horses- horse logging, horse farming, and horse training! Jim uses Belgian, Percheron, and Suffolk horses to do work on the farm and in the woods. He teaches about harnesses, horse-drawn logging and farming equipment, horse feeding and maintenance, and voice commands for horses. New videos uploaded every week. Keep watching to see how Jim trains his new Suffolk Punch colts as he has trained his full-grown teams!

    Bridget from Ohio I Love watching your videos 😊
    I have a single horse hay cutter, I'll have to take a look at it . Last time we used it was 48 years ago. we then parked it on a hill & planted flowers around it. my dad had a buddy who had 25 ponies and he came out and we hooked it to the bumper of the pickup truck and he mowed our little one acre patch. Mr Burke was his name he rode the mower and my dad drove the truck they wanted to see for sure if it worked. and it worked great at the time we had just put a whole new blade bar in it I used to keep it oiled when I was still living at home. it still sets on the hill and is my reminder of when I got my first horse.
    My dad and Mr Burke have been gone for over 40 years my mother is still alive and just turned 93. I love hearing her stories of when she was a kid. to help get money for the family she would work on the neighbor's farm with the two draft horses. and when it was time to eat she would unhitch the machinery and ride the horses back in and eat and then continue the job she was doing. she never rode a horse with a saddle until I got a nice little quarter mare and her and I and a few friends went to a big horse Park and road trails in the woods for about 5 hours. it was the only time I ever got my mom on a horse. ❤

    It has been almost forty years since I ran that old one horse mower, but it was pretty similar as I recall. The one I ran was a John Deere, and we had it rigged for two ponies instead of a single horse. It was an open gear mower like that, and I think it dated to the 1880's. I do remember that you needed both the foot pedal and the hand lever to raise the blade. I think it had a foot pedal to put it in gear. I didn't get to run it enough to be really expert at it, but I did clip several pastures with it. I'm really sad that we won't get to see you in Lancaster. I would have liked to have seen you, and I would have liked to have seen my home town again.

    Always so much work to do before going on a trip. Though having a farm with horses, cattle, chickens, and pigs, there's so much more you have to do. William will see to it that Pansy is milked and cared for. While Abby and Trudy will see that the horses, pig, and chicks are tended to! I just wonder if Lady has finally decided it's ok for Bill to stay with her and little June!? Have a safe and fun week at Horse Progress Days, Jim and Brenda! Remember to stay hydrated as you will be outside in the heat much of the days.🥰🙏 Happy 4th of July to everyone!🇺🇸

    I do some logging with my horse in Germany and I am a big fan of your channel! I was always worried that the mower is too heavy for one horse. But I can see that this is not a problem. If you have the opportunity, try a Lanz LVK 35 mower. It offers a lot more functions and was designed for working with one horse. But I don't know if they are available in the USA. Have fun at the Horse progress days.

    I have no personal experience with your Mc Cormack Deering #4 one horse mower . So I asked google .Here goes .yes it was designed to automatically kick out of gear if you use the lift peddle (right ) side .You look to be missing a second wood handle lift to lift cutter bar ( rotted off) .Have that rod put back on to the drive clutch ( right side ). With new wooden lift handle ,bar stays engaged but can be lifted to get over low rocks and stumps .see clear as mud.😊😊😊
