What I learned today: Lee is just as crazy as Mike. Mike might act reckless, but he really looks out for everybody’s safety!!! Spring is coming!!!
Mike when will we see the full equipment and farm tour? Show all the semis,bins,all the stuff parked in the back 40? Would be awesome to see :)
There is one
@@baflle289 I’m talking showing everything,he didn’t show everything they had in that video
I love the fact that Mike gets excited over the little things, like we all should.
Haha thanks man! 🙂
Comment from Oz; we use the same bags and the Akron out-loader here, however, no bag rollers and re-cycling is in its infancy. So I built my own roller, quite simple really, requires two tractors, one with a p.t.o.shaft on its wheel and the axle jacked up , then a 3.5metre shaft with a pvc pipe over it . The other end is on the normal pot shaft of the other tractor . The bag is either stretched out or better still straight of f the bagging machine roller. I then run the tractor with the jacked wheel in low tear and wind the bag in , ending up with a roll about 3 metres wide and 80cm deep tied with baler twine . I then just drive forward with the pto tractor leaving the roll on the ground. Thanks for your vid. I picked up some handy points from it. Dave.
Now this is when that Neeralta you demoed recently, wins! All in one unloader and bag roller, it lifts the bag up and sheds the snow. No coming back to the field on another day!
Thank you guys for cleaning up your grain bags instead of leaving them out for your neighbors to deal with. One of the mega farmers around me empty out their grain bags and never clean them up and they blow into our fields and we get to clean them up.
Very interesting,luv the dialogue you input into your videos. Keep 'em coming
NEW VID YAY. Can't wait for seeding.
Everybodys a critic, I know, but noticed the bag unloader Tony on Fast Ag channel worked very nice, and it rolled up the bag while emptying the bag. It kept it from getting the time to blow around and fill up with ice. No, it wouldn't be as entertaining, but save you a lot of work!
Good afternoon Mike.. Thank you for the tag along good sir. Who knew rolling bags could be so fun - or dangerous... Grin.
You guys have too much fun!! Keep it up
It good to see you make and have fun with things that can be a pain in the ass. Allot of people if things go south get pissed and loss their cool but you don’t. You make it fun.
Enjoyed having your brother Lee aboard you guys look alike
Great video Mike and Lee
Just to much fun rolling up bags.
You'all have a blast. Syre makes life easier and fun. God Bless
This is completely different from my experience of driving a tractor. This is so smooth like a car, I'm being thrown all over the place. Admittedly, you're in a merc compared to my 70s beetle but all the same, it just seems so incomparable.
Great awesome video mike ,
Mike, I love your channel. So how many grain bins would you need to put in to get rid of the bags?
I'm not sure if it would work for you guys but maybe another option over bags would be to build some portable grain bins on some custom built huge trailers that you could hydraulicly move the wheels up and down. The trailer would just sit on the ground when loaded. Maybe use some of your old bins that your going to get rid of. You could also use them for during harvest if the trucks couldn't keep up for some reason.
I'm just throwing out ideas.
Love you videos man.
Great video buddy.
id run the bags over a couple of lumps of wood so it squeegees the ice out as it rolls the bags in!, cracking video as ever!
I was wondering how you rolled up the empty bags. It's really great that you recycle them and not just putting them in a landfill. You take care and watch out for flying ice and debris!
Lee does that Ranch Surfing thing pretty well! 😂
That Pro-grain did a pretty good job actually . To install a roller on the Akron wouldn´t be very efficient and after we took a better look at the Neeralta it looked like a bit of a hassle to set up . I think if you have around 10 bags and up , a stand alone roller is the way to go .
March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb, unless you live in Mike's world! Lols!!!
Haha right?! 🤷🏼♂️😂
How knew picking up plastic would be that interesting 😁
Mike call Carl’s mobile welding in Luseland SK they build bag rollers for 10x400’s and built like a tank. They have the peanut butter and jam to roll them up with ice as well. I have owned ours for 5 years now not a problem yet.
Cool seeing how you pick up those big bags. Short axel trailer are worse then tractor truck and trailer
Be cool to see mike making hay with the old tractor. I know the channel is a grain farming channel and that you could search that on UA-cam and find lots but they just don’t have mike in them lol
Thanks Mike
A farmer not that far from me used a JD 510 round baler. I believe he took the teeth out of the pick up. From what I heard it worked great. Our recycler is about maybe 5 miles from me they have bags just piled up ready for recycling. They hate grain bags and don't like to deal with them and don't like to recycle but Merlin says otherwise. LOL
You should build a roller solution for the front 3point hitch, since you only run fendts on it and it wouldn't be in the way. You could run the bag underneath the tractor.
Lol No we don't want Lee in the bag 🤣😂😅. I thing his family would be mad at you. Great video God-bless you all Keepsafe and warm ❤.
Hey Mike, why not tie the bag to the roller and drag it forward for a while to break the ice chunks!😎😎
Love the look of the merch
Hey hey mike.. Have a good one buds
With the severe shortage of plastic resin, those bags could be worth something now.
Mayber that Neeralta extractor isn't so bad after all... lol...
here in medicine hat alberta it was 15 on Saturday
I would try, the bag roller that you have, pulling the bag off of your unloader. Put them back to back, more or less. The bag roller should get the bag off of the unloader as fast as putting it back on the ground. The issue of the junk stuck to the bags could be solved by extending the distance between the unloader and the roller.
Hey Mike, how about converting a old haybine into a self propelled roller? Run the through the feeder housing into a roller mounted behind the cab. Complete with automatic tying and rear unloading... 🤷♂️
Question Mike. Could an old combine have a head put on to empty the bags. Self propelled . Could go into the hopper while changing trucks. Just sayin.
Pro Grain makes baggers, extractors, etc.. Made in Sask! East central Saskatchewan.
Bag roiling looks like a good job for the Massey
Mike - enjoy your videos. Have you looked at Loftness grain extractors? Seem like it might be just the item for you!
that camera zoom made me appreciate the quality of your camera. very good.
🎵Keep rolling rolling rolling ro......🎵
mike why don't you use a head strap cam for when you are in the tractor so you can use 2 hands
Thanks for tye laughs Mike you made a wet cold crappy monday morning better
I hadn’t laughed till you said don’t laugh guys honest
"10"? Nope... "11"! 'Cause it's one more than 10, of course. 😉
Would putting the tensioner higher on the machine dump the ice and stuff as the bag is pulled in?
I thought when you were trying to bite the bag you would open and close the grapple and say nom nom nom
Hahah
25:27, that's why you don't go ramming speed or full send, ha!
Love the new profile-picture Mike!
Have you thought about or tried rolling the bag straight from the debagger to the roller? Like when you are finished cleaning a blah, bag up the roller to the debagger and roll it up
Hey Mike, have you watched ollysblog yet on youtube. You guys like a good tractor pull, days 350 and 357 should be to your liking. He's a big Fendt fan but his colleague has JDs. He's done a short video for each day of lockdown over here
31:17 you need some grisport work shoes! I'm not sure if they are selling them in canada...
In the last part of the vid there was a haybine... is that still being used? If so, can you maybe do a video on it?
Why not make one yourself and mount it on an A-frame that you can hitch onto the front 3 point linkage. You could carry it to the bags, Unhitch if need to use the loader then re-hitch and quickly roll a bag up. Job sorted and I would imagine fairly quickly too.
That blue extractor had a self roller on it.
Another great video. As others have said.....looking forward to big tractors and seeding. Way down
South (MS and AR Delta) there are poly pipe rollers for 18" plastic irrigation pipe. If you do build your own, check that roller design. May get some ideas on building your own.
Could you cable tie the two hydraulic pipes to the rest on the front loader it would look tidy good video
👍👍👍
Hi hello my brother good video
Mike, I have questions: 1) How heavy is a empty bag? 2) Does the bagroller come a frontloader implement? Because then you could have a trailer hitched up to the Fendt, on the way to the field,unhook the trailer, roll the bag up and unload it straight into the trailer. And on to the next one in ramming speed.
Is the plastic shredded as the next processing stage? Be curious if shredding right at the farm would be more efficient, like a chipper shredder for bags. Volume could be an issue then... Hmmm
Almost need some plexi glass on the top and side so you don't get crap all over the place
Between that machine and the Akron, they both seem more simple and less expensive parts (combined) than the neeralta
The second guy has way to much energy. :)
hey mike i gotta question why dont you save some of these old bag7s to make patches for the damaged bas instead of just using tape
have you guys got any machine sheds seems like alot of gear sits outside?
That's neat.😉
What if you were to build your own that is self contained hydraulic and you could pull it to location with pickup
😊😊😊😊👍👍
wonder if a old hay roller would work on these baggettes as I watched the vid you already thought of it...🙃🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜👀🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
I saw a video of someone using an old round baler to roll the bags
Looks to me like as useful as they are grain bags qualify as a giant PIA !!!
You hired😂
Mike I got a question. I know u knew I would. Was that a New Holland haybine next to the acron? Havnt seen u working hay or using pick up headers on the combines
"we need an Irish man because they can bale" 31:40 oh yes sir we can 🇮🇪
Mike do you take on much Irish people and where do I apply 🇮🇪🇮🇪
Mike how come you don't press the stubble for feed fir stock
Saskatchewan surfing.
Just curious Mike, why not bugsy back the unloader and tractor over the bag while unloading it, skipping winding it up, just leave it lay and have a roller come right behind you to pick it up for recycling.
26:11, rotten chick-peas, mmmmmm, good, lol!
Hey Mike I would love to build you a kick ass roller I am a welder fabricator and work with hydraulics I can build to what ever you need and cheep like porgies at a Ukraine babbas keep on with the videos we enjoy seeing the kick ass Saskatchewan farms iv bleed green my entire life would not live anywhere else even If you paid me
Well maybe we should take a second look at the blue grain extractor to save man hours lol
Mike the shorter the wheel base the more difficult it is to back , I've had one machine that wheelbase was the distance of a pro .. Is it always bad conditions when you are rolling up your bags ?
Try backing up a Tedder. Those things are wider than they are longer. Ours can be a pain backing into our barn
Nice 😁
On average how many tons would a bag hold ?
Today is actually March 15th down here in the states. Wow it takes a long time to upload a video in Canada. 😂 Hey! I think I see trees in Mike’s video! No, sorry those are just fence posts. 😂 Too bad no-one has thought to make those bags biodegradable, maybe something that could be incorporated into the soil.
There should be some expanded metal or mesh to shield the operator a bit from getting whipped by a bag of ice chunks lol we need a equipment tour of the bone yard.. cool to see the haying equipment and odds and ends that started the farm that lead to the monster iron there today!
To me what would make sense is if you could just collect the bags in folded, then take them back to the farm, have a machine that just shreds the bags into very small pieces and then you just put all those small pieces into a container or bag and deliver it to the company that recycles your bags
It seems that you have a lot of equipment - how many acres do you farm
You never kick out a bale goin down hill cause it might roll back into the baler we usually don’t kick off a bale going up hill because you don’t know where the thing is going to stop.😂
Hey Mike you might want to check out fast ag videos 4 grain bag extractors it cuts the bag at the top and rolls it at the same time to be easier for you guys to get the dirty grain out
Could you get the bag started in the roller and then drive the tractor forward to get the bag straightened on the ground?
Good idea.
Mike why don’t you use 12x500ft bag? Seems like a farm of your size should have one as you can fit 33000 bushels in one?
Verry nic Video
Mike, I’ve got a question. You routinely jump on your smaller tractors and drive many miles at max speed (22 mph?) . Wouldn’t it be faster and less wear and tear to load the tractor on a low-boy trailer, throw on a couple tie downs and you could drive to the site at 55+ mph and save wear and tear on the tractor and tires and save some time?
One would think that, but actually it doesn't work that way.. For example, the Fendts can road at 34mph and by the time you mess around unhooking trucks and hooking up trailers, that Fendt would be there.
Even if it was 34 miles away, now you load the tractor, chain down, strap a window protector around your windows, and fold in the mirrors all to protect from rocks. Now that's its strapped down - which took you an 30- 60mins.. The Fendt is already there or nearly is..
But even if you got that done in 30mins, which you would have to be humping on it! We only drive our semi's at at 35- 40mph on the gravel roads anyways 😂🤦♂️ because of rocks beat them up..
So you are better to head off with the tractor.. And saves alot time and messing around 🙂
Plus the Fendt is more fun to drive than a semi.
@@mikemitchell2554 Upgrade to JCB and 44mph :-)
But I do not like them in all honestly. Not bad tractors, just not as good as Fendt for sure.
