Meg, I am so happy you did the painting!!! Now I understand the layout of your dreams. It was hard before to understand what was where and why, now it all makes sense. You may be able to bring the drawing back into future videos to update your viewers on your progress or changes, helps all of us feel like we are on the journey with you and your family. Thank you. Keep up the great work. Lastly John great welding, I too enjoy playing with the my little welder and find it entertaining at the same time. lol
Meg...... you are right. You remembered the suggestions in the comments and saved much heartache. It is heart-warming watching you two interact in such an encouraging manner.
Meg, Homeschool teaching skills on full display with the sand castle explanation = A+ Great awareness! You guys are doing amazing work! 👍🏼 Jon, I’m enjoying your guys’ creative thinking, “Brilliant!” 😃 Outtakes at the end are always hilarious 😆
Hi Guys, In hot weather, parking the attachments in deep shade will usually prevent heat from pressurising the hoses, thus making it difficult to re-attach the unit.
You guys are up to similar shenanigans as I am. I live in a houseboat on land in the hills of TN ... building a saw mill at the moment to make the lumber for the house build. I finished my roads for the most part. You guys are doing pretty good from what I have seen so far. Keep it up.
You are right Meg, it takes a sec to process what and how to shape a road! Since you are starting road work… here’s a 10min general engineering video. He kinda uses a sand castle model too and a simple cut and fill graphic for slopes. ua-cam.com/video/PIK6I6Q58Ec/v-deo.html
Everyone is right. Relieve the pressure both before removing and to install, relieve the pressure on the tractor the same way. I turn on the key but don't start the tractor to switch back and forth while relieving the pressure.
Hey Bryce, that backhoe can be tricky. I'm sure the 25 is similar to the 24. I always rest mine on a cinderblock when it's removed. You can tap those poppet quick connects if they're stiff. I've certainly done that about a dozen times and found the mounts for the backhoe (the pins) fit perfectly inside the female quick connects to tap the pressure out if needed. Hope you're well!
You guys are doing a great job! Loving the videos! Weird question for you... where are you getting your music from? The opening track to this episode grabbed me in both its haunting melody and the rich harmonic content of that Dobro. My Sound Hound app told me it was "Northside - Blacklake Waters", but when I looked that up on UA-cam, it wasn't. Then I got sucked into a Dobro rabbit hole on UA-cam. LOL. Thanks!
It got Northside correct, but the song is "SunRise". ua-cam.com/video/tmX_Ah4VPRM/v-deo.html We get our music from epidemic sound and we've been pleased with the selection they offer. That song makes me think of cowboys at a campfire sipping on some spiked coffee. haha!
Meg and Jon, what is the elevation gain from the beginning of the driveway to where your house will be built? I don't think the camera does justice on the steepness of your land.
Hey Jeff, it's about a 200 ft. elevation change from where the garden is to the top of the mountain, where we want the house to be. You're right, the camera does no justice.
Always decompress all valves when you leave your machine. Even for a few moments. One kid with a finger in the wrong spot, and an other child fiddling with the handel. You are responsible. Always decompress all hydraulic cylinders. If you have a connector teasing you, give the little spot in the middle a dash with a hammer, and out comes a bit of the pressure.
Why haven't you put that sawmill on a concrete pad yet? Just curious. It would be so much easier to keep it level and true if it was on a pad so it can't settle everytime it rains.
You want the answer to the grapple pressure problem? Step one: Lower grapple to the ground. Step Two: Shut engine off. Step Three: turn key on without starting engine. Step Four: Actuate the third function back and forth. Step Five: Turn key off. Step Six: Remove grapple hoses. Step Seven: Disconnect grapple from frontend loader. Done.
Thanks, that's pretty much where I'm at. Maybe my relay is supposed to be hooked to accessory because a lot of guys have said to turn the key to accessory, but mine will work on constant power. The trick is not to accidentally hit that button when the grapple is off. Thanks for taking the time to share. 👍
This! I have the 37 and my button works with key off. The 24s may be wired to accessory. Tractor off, accessory on, third function depressed, curl both ways. No pressure at third function remotes.
You should really have two male fittings on the tractor side of the diverter. Thst female is going to collect tons of dirt and there way hard to clean than the male flat face you have.

Love the channel, the banter and partnership between you two, and what your working to achieve together! Great work
Meg, Loved the watercolor. Made it much more clear to me all the locations that we have been seeing.
Only thing better will be seeing it all in person. Hope that will happen soon.💕
The ziggady driveway will be a heck of an accomplishment when complete! WOW!
I love the map! Great job with the watercolors!

Nice welding John be proud 😊
Awesome!! No purchase necessary !! Glad the grapple is solo capable… sometimes 👍
Maybe you can slide a clip under the button so it can’t be pressed when the grapple off? Easy kill switch no wiring.
Thanks for helping with this annoyance! I'm definitely going to add a kill switch if I have a problem grazing the button.

You can pres the button and release pressure to the couplers
LOL on Meg and button
I like your intro music.
If you push the button, the only way to relieve the pressure is to loosen the coupler on the hose. You will loose a little oil.
Everyone is right. Relieve the pressure both before removing and to install, relieve the pressure on the tractor the same way. I turn on the key but don't start the tractor to switch back and forth while relieving the pressure.
Forgot to say on the previous video that the float position relieves the system pressure.
I had that happen the first time I took the backhoe off. tony's tractor adventure let me know. I had to relieve the pressure on the backhoe.
Hey Bryce, that backhoe can be tricky. I'm sure the 25 is similar to the 24. I always rest mine on a cinderblock when it's removed. You can tap those poppet quick connects if they're stiff. I've certainly done that about a dozen times and found the mounts for the backhoe (the pins) fit perfectly inside the female quick connects to tap the pressure out if needed. Hope you're well!

I like your tip about decompressing, especially with the little ones with curious fingers.
Why haven't you put that sawmill on a concrete pad yet? Just curious. It would be so much easier to keep it level and true if it was on a pad so it can't settle everytime it rains.
I'm going to, John. All in due time. Moving it to a different location and might extend the rails while I'm at it.
