    Thank you for putting so much effort into these videos. Farm life is the same hardship and rewards in all countries. Greetings from Russia.

    The great thing about these old Farm-all tractors when they were new, not only did the owner had the right to repair, it was expected!

    I've never had much interest in an H or M Farmall, I'm also not brand loyal or specific either. They just did not tickle my fancy, until I have been watching you with your tractors. Tractors are like Pokemon to me, I gotta catch them all! Thank you so much Pete, your videos are an inspiration to me and many others. I'm trying to rebuild my grandfathers legacy, he taught my brother and I farming methods much like yours. Our goal is to farm 80 acres for direct to consumer. We want to grow all of our own pig feed, chicken feed, and hay + feed for cattle. Much like how my grandfather did it on 300 acres.

    I’m really enjoying watching the Farmall MD rebuild! It would be awesome to see the MD bailing a few square bails with the old New Holland bailer once she’s all put back together! That’s for the great videos Pete!

    My son and I both really enjoy these types of videos. He was the one who told me about your channel and got me watching in the first place. We both have done mechanical repairs and overhauls. He has done quite a few of cars and trucks and some tractor repairs and restorations. I've done a few more in repairs on tractors and the farm equipment side of things. Looks like you are getting it back together real good. Each detail is hard to explain to others that hasn't done it before, but I think you do a great job at it. Thanks for sharing and you have a great day and week ahead.

    Hi Pete, I found you last year when you were working on the MD. I left for a bit then came back and started watching you from video 1. I just finished watching them all and it gives me hope that your message will reach others. Thank you for the videos and allowing us a glimpse into you and Hilary's life. Take care!

    It's hard to believe looking at that transmission housing that's part of a huge tractor . Seeing all the dissabled parts laying around from what was such a big machine is funny . Keep up the great job , I'll never work on one of these but find these videos interesting . This series will help anyone in the furture to repair and rebuild this equipment .

    I wish I could put 5 stars ✨ on your videos. It is so nostalgic for me, so relaxing to watch. I watched my dad disassemble and reassemble so many mechanisms from as far back as I can remember. They said he had the patience of Jobe. He had a little tune he would whistle. All these words I haven’t heard in so long, bushings, bearings, shims, gaskets, etc. All that’s missing are the smells that I know goes along with those little cans with the brush on the lids, and the cleaning fluids, and the grease. And the tune I could never duplicate. ☺️☺️☺️🥲⭐️✨

    It's a good thing that the quality assurance inspector is always there looking over your shoulder and pointing out any oversights during final reassembly. 😜Being the videographer, editor and chief and part time grill chef, affords the luxury of reviewing and setting the clip sequence, while the smoker does all the real work on cooking dinner. Thanks for the great content.

    The oil in the spray bottle reminds me of an exchange between my dad and his mother many years ago. He'd gone over to her house to help with something and needed to clean his new glasses. He'd not worn glasses very long and didn't realize that she'd mixed malathion bug spray into a similar spray bottle until he'd gone back outside to leave and put his glasses back on :) He didn't have to worry about the mosquitos or flies at the hog farm that evening either :)

    This is the first time I have seen the internals of the drive train downstream of an engine other than a schematic. It's good to have the ability to watch and learn regardless of our age (I'm 79.) I had high school physics and 14 or 16 hours of physics in college (math major and a minor in music and one or two courses short of a minor in physics) but I can't recall ever getting my hands on an actual drive train. It is one thing to learn the theory behind mechanical advantage and another to put it to use. I guess that's the difference between an engineering degree and a teaching degree in some cases. At any rate, your demonstrations are very well done and excellent learning materials. What is fascinating about your sessions is the organized way you go about providing demonstrations. They are well thought out, logical and your presentation techniques are of "exceeds expectations" quality. You have my vote for "Teacher of the Year."
    I suspect we don't have a clue as to the amount of time you put in planning, developing, revising, cutting and pasting, etc. to provide a professional product. Even the humor is professionally bad (Puns have to be bad to be good and you're an "exceeds" in this area also.) I only wish I could afford to help with the funding of your site, however I only have a small pension plus social security and have high monthly costs for prescriptions associated with heart disease, so I have to squeeze every penny that comes my way. About the only thing I can do is offer my compliments on your product. It is the first site I check each time I open UA-cam. I think I have hit the thumbs up on each one of your videos. One thing I will promise is that I will go back and check all of your videos to ensure I have selected a 👍for each.
    I wish you and your partners well (that includes Hillary and the kids also!
    ✌❤🖖
    There, that is a good example of a joke for you. I'm sure the chickens will find it humorous. Don't bother reading my comments to John the boar. I've never known a boar who had much of a sense of humor. They pretty much have a one track mind!I've long and prosper.
    Live long and prosper.

    Love the videos. Just discovered you. The video titled farmers wife speaks, you mentioned that some viewers would have angry responses. Well, don't take that personally. Some people, a lot of people, are miserable. They want everyone else to join in their swill. You just keep doing things the way you are. You have a wonderful family. Thanks again.

    Wow Pete! Thanks for showing all the steps and even the ‘I forgot…’ bits. Your knowledge and expertise make it all easy to understand what you’re doing and talking about. I have zero experience with this sort of thing, but I understood everything you were doing because you were also telling us what you were doing! Especially the right nomenclature. I’m an Air Force veteran, used to work on B-52’s, F-16’s and a few others. Was good enough, but never good enough to do it right while also telling you what I was doing, while telling you the right name for each part. Bravo!

    I learn a lot about the relationship between parts and how they work while cleaning them. Helps on reassembly, especially when no service manual or parts catalog is available. Clean is the most reliable part one can install during reassembly.

    I can't count the amount of times I kept on coming to YT to see your video. and if the parts got here etc. well today it happened! Wow you got few more bearings than I thought you would. but now is the time to replace them!. The thought I always have in mind when I go for parts is, if you think they cost a lot now! wait till they break a year or two from now and watch those prices to replace them then!. and it softens the sticker shock now and makes you feel a whole lot better and secure. Thanks for another great video Pete can't wait for the next one already!. Thanks for sharing. ECF
