I am right there with you, 20 years ago I was all about the F series with the crank starts and now passing 60, crank starting an old F series is not what it used to be.
I figure with these rope trip plows...I'll get them out about twice a year
I have a 2 bottom rope trip little genius plow .
Thanks for the nice video, M sounds good!!
I have a 1 bottom for my cubby. Someday I will put in a garden.
I hope don't quit UA-cam anytime soon I really look forward to watch any of your new videos
Worked fir a guy had F20 with a starter they were optional the later F years
Wow. The video footage of you looking back at the rope trip plow is priceless to me. I know that view oh so well. From a boy around 10 to my early 20s. Sure brought back some drudgery, but mostly fond memories of happy days gone by. Man that’s when farming was FARMING.
Yes it was!
I appreciate the videos. Love seeing the old stuff in action.
Enjoy watching these videos and the auction ones are great. I have the W 6 and 9 series and grew up if you can’t crank start it you can’t drive it. Now I love the electric start. Grew up on Saskatchewan farm never used a plow, my father did with horses, I enjoy learning about your Farmall and plows on your videos. Good work.
Awesome "M" Power. Great Video. Thanks for showing.
Thanks for watching!
I love your Farmall M and your other tractors. They are awesome.
Thanks
This video was interrupted (on my stream) by a John Deere ad. I think the UA-cam algorithm is trying to bring me to the dark side!
I'll take all the money John Deere wants to give me lol
Get the old M going. I used a Super M pulling the same plows back in the 60's. Pulled them no problem
Then we bought a new 460 and 3 row 14s quick hitch which worked great and it had power steering which was a game changer. The 460 replaced a 400 we lost in a field fire. My grandpa was throwing a wrench into the toolbox and broke the sediment bowl and she burst into flames. Even.worse was we were bailing hay with it and by the time fire rescue got there rear tires were on fire. I remember that like it was yesterday. I also plowed with a 300 utility pulling 2 14 plows. Thanks for the video
460 would have been a game changer for sure
The M sounds good! I have fond memories of my Dad and my Grandfather plowing with our M’s using the same plow. Unfortunately I don’t have an M but I do one of their plows in my front yard. May they both R.I.P.. Great video. Thanks so much.
It sure beat a horse didn't it
Glad to see the mighty M back in the field. I miss hearing that throaty sound it makes. I noticed the right tire of the plow lifting off the ground. That means the points of the plow needs replacing. Maybe you should get that plow in the shop this winter and work on it the whole winter. Lol !!😄😄
Oh, that front point is shot lol
I'm pushing 70 and as I get older I like the "creature comforts" more and more but I still enjoy the old way just to be able to say "I can still do it"
Twice a year for me lol
Thanks for the great consistent content. I'm kind of like you. When I was a little kid, my grandfather(a long time Western Pa farmer) still insisted on keeping a big team of horses and plowed a lot with them with an old walk behind Oliver plow, even though my older bros bought him a Super C with all the modern attachments. He wouldn't change up until the day he passed,but I enjoy the modern stuff(Hydraulics, cabs, air con, etc). Keep enjoying what you do and entertaining us . Bill
I figure get the rope trip plows out a couple of times a year and get my fill
I have always loved the M. Have owned a 41, a 46, a 50, and an SMTA. They were all my favorites
I give a like whenever a video pops up. You are putting time, effort and money into all this.
Appreciate it
The M sounded really good. Thanks for showing her.
Never plowed with an M. Grew up plowing with an H and a 2x16 following my dad on a G John Deere with 3x16 plowed many acres that way growing up. Miss them days.
Nice tractors
You have some very nice combinations there Farmall.
That M is running as smooth as silk. Nice👌
Thanks for the cool video. It brought back memories. I used to run my brother’s M pulling 3 14’s .
It's a perfect combination
In my youth I did my own tires. I would always take the time to remove the tire and put a coat of paint on the rims. I have the bead hammer and tire bars. I had the patching equipment to even replace a tire valve on a tube to save money when they were Twenty Bucks. Then I got old so I no longer have tire ballast.
Dad had trip plow, planter disc and drill. We never had the pump on the H connected until we bought a used IH 64 combine then we had a single acting cylinder for the header. Maybe the worst thing we had with rope trip equipment was the rope would rot out and break in the field.
Still I see your point on Two or Three Point equipment being less fooling around with. As long as the tractor engine is running you should have a hitch to lift your equipment up and down.
Oh yeah I don't even do my own tires anymore
Can't wait to see you in person...next week at red power show down in Bloomsburg at the fairgrounds. I always enjoy the videos. I also own Red power. Several. See you hopefully next week
Right on
Don't miss them rope trip implements 🤔 like the classic tractors and implements 😊
I get my fill after about twice a year
I'm agreeing with you on the rope trip plows. Harder to get out from under a big rock without hydraulic lift.
You have a life! As you should and do what you enjoy.
I love my Is M. I have 4 of them and a super.
And and I have one like you with the easy joy seat.
Nice video, keep it up.
I have to say, I do enjoy your videos . I own a H and M myself
Appreciate it
That M still sounds strong!!
Well I didn't expect to see the ol M out plowing today, it was a pleasant surprise.
I figured it would be 😁
U r young so enjoy your time with your tractors. I'm 65 now and I miss mine.
We are that different in age
Aren't
Ms,and Hs r very good tractors. We used each pulling a International baler(430)?. Thanks for the memories.
Very well built machines
You have plow day whether you want it or not. LOL!
I enjoy your videos so I would like you to keep on
Nothing shines up a plow molboard better than gravel. Gravel pit if its handy. Second option gravel windrow on gravel road.
Great video and Love the Mighty M she's a Beast 😊😊
I know exactly what you mean.
Till my back went to hell and took my health with it i use to love to play. Only farmed about
50 acres a year. Helped my neighbor with 200 acres. Them were the good times for me.
Now I push my walker and just wish I could do anything.
By the way you are looking good, how are your health battles doing. I hope well !!!
TAKE CARE BUDDY !!!!
My next appointment is June 18th, so I will know more then
100% on the hydraulic lifts, I am feeling the wear of the rope trip life. My Ih #9 disc is going to get a #37 younger sibling.
I can do the rope trips a couple of times a year and then i'm good
looks like a solid plow job to me
The M is amazing. Do these new tractors will be plowing in 79 years?
Plow day videos are good.
Thanks. See ya next time.
No the new ones won't run at all because they're ran by computers
Great vid. Wouldn’t the end result be better if the field was mowed first?
Not really
I often wondered if you painted the mull boards with 90 weight transmission oil would keep them from rusting. I have never done it.
I'm just trying to not get the dirt to stick to them
When teaching my boys to use a rope trip Oliver plow they had to learn to be cognizant to just do one quick pull. There were a lot of times when they would unknowing double pull the rope and drop/lift and not start a furrow or lift/drop and run a furrow in the road before they realized it. But they got the hang of it and can now run equipment that is 50-60-70 years old that most people have no clue about. I know gps tractors and push button spray mix sprayers are the present but I also believe a lot of this technology is killing the persons ability to critically think and rationalize a working solution. Old equipment means you are the computer and the solution.
Yup it takes a while to learn this stuff
I really like that plow.
It is pretty nifty
That’s why you take your trip style plow and replace it with the cylinder and yeah, you can put a cylinder on a trip flow just takes a little bit of welding
Oh yeah guys do it all the time
That M sounds smooth. Hardly working. Is the steel wheel on the plow depth control or the rubber?
The steel wheel is the trip side
Just for those who really don't know what the "M" stands for, it stands for MARVELOUS! LOL
Concur
Well you drop about 800 -1000 lbs of weight what you don't expect is difference in the way tractor handles the load . Throwing two sets of wheel weights makes a big difference from experience.My 1941 pulling and handling silage wagons you could get pushed sideways real easy .I ended 4 sets of wheel weights and it maked big difference which I turn my easy adjustment in pulling classes from 5000 to 8500 lbs.I used 3 weight bracket on hitch,belly and one on the front.iI really my on farm because of nine speed m&w really change ground speed also PTO changed to it run about 720 or little more.That 826 and 400 are cat ass in up grades to farm on your level of enjoyment enjoy the summer.
Yeah it's the first time I have felt this tractor slip under any load
Keep rocking on man!!!
One of Grandpa's old sayings,
"you buy cheap you get cheap",
that applies to those cheap Stanley mufflers, they are straight through unbaffled, I do not like the sound of them compared to a real IH muffler .
You are correct
That M sounds sweet!
We used axel grease or old motor oil to protect the plows.
I just don't want the dirt to stick while i'm plowing
Looking good plowing but what do you like better a three point plow or a pull behind one
Fast-Hitch
Question. Why is one tire rubber and the other a steel wheel on the plow?
My absolute guesses, at 1 time, They were both steel and somebody changed it to rubber
Could any of your tractors run a roto tiller,just wondering 😊😊
826 could run an 8 or 9 footer pretty easily
You are good to watch
Thanks
Ok I’ll admit that I’m a 1% viewer that’s seen enuf plowing and past ready to see some Seeding!! It’s almost mid June for goodness sakes!! You going to push 110 day corn again??
I'm pretty much Gonna do whatever I want... And people are gonna find it entertaining or they're not going to find it entertaining. Either way, i'm to the point I don't care
@@FarmallFanatic lol I thought my comment would hit home with ya!!
I brought a M a few months ago that has fire crator pistons in it looks like my the inspection camera and that thing has a sound of its own. I really don’t have any implements for the M yet but the long lever on the the plow is depth control and the string is the trip the raise it and lower it? My M has a 3 point on it but it’s the kit where you buy your own cylinders and nobody never put the cylinders on it but they are on the bucket list lol
That should out about ten percent power
Your welcome :)
Do you use a Clevus on that plow or put it threw the draw bar
Clevis and the original breakaway hitch
Are you planning on loading the tires again?
No
@@FarmallFanatic Dang
I can smell the dirt from here, nothing quite like that fresh plowed earth smell
Yeah.
I can still smell some of the cow manure from being spread for 50 years.
Now the Ms turn for a workout....
ive noticed in us that everone ploughs very fast compared to uk i guess becauce all farms are much bigger and havnt go the time to go at our pace.
I prefer slow
A lot of it also depends on the ground. When we plow (aka plough, I have two David Browns [780 & 880] also) we have to go faster to get a good "roll" and flatten to the furrow beside it or the new furrow just stands proud and makes the field rough as h%ll. So the speed is dictated by how the furrows marry up.
You aint old my man wait till your 77 have never plowed with a mounted plow or semi mount. We had the old G tires plum full of chloride.
Not old just ill
Well you need to go and buy a corn picker 234 or new idea ?
Or sheller
Can it still plow??? RED POWER IN 1945...RED POWER IN 2024! A lot of people that talk about not plowing deep enough have never plowed. Down here in the land of red clay, the top soil isn't that deep and you don't need to turn it under while rolling the clay up on top. I know where there is a farm today that was ruined that way.
It's just about making a good seed bed..that's what's lost in the idea of plowing
Nice red power why do people have to be so stupid just watch the video and enjoy I don't get sharp shooters keep it up farmall fanatic
I guess they have to feel like know it alls
Yea I hate those people
I hate rope pulls, yes, I am old.
Lol
You'll get older, wiser. I still try to do things, but definitely like I used to. Jesus said to not let any man deceive you. So I try to not let that happen. I'm still going to school. I should have never have had been treated the way that I was treated in the past. Maybe before I die I'll be nearer to where I should be. God willing. We'll see.
Let no unsaved man deceive you... A fellow Christian has no desire to do so
Definitely any year is a GOOD YEAR for the Mighty M!
I gotta tell ya you tell it like it is and man I respect that 100%. Someone's always got something stupid to say guess that's why there are so many stupid people out there! To make my point this current administration is just screwing this country into the ground and all these Americans sit around on their cans and do nothing about it. Imagine what our forefathers would have to sat about now! Keep on plowin!
Oh they would call us cowards
Your lays are dull not pulling the plow down. We had an old black smith that sharpened them in the old forge then hammer them out. He formed sharp point about 2.5 to three inches wide on the leading point of the lay.
Yeah I just haven't got around to changing the points
I always enjoy your videos. I thank you for your time and effort. Your videos are some of my favorites. I love watching the old equipment work. I feel we share a good amount of opinions. Thank you for thanking us. Hope you have a great day and I'll see you later. You're welcome.
Oh, the memories you bring back , like walking the furrow behind grandpa on the H and a two bottom rope trip until the one day that plow opened a ground hornet nest ... needless to say, that's the end of that memory !!! I want to thank you for the memories of the older equipment i grew up with ! Please keep up the great videos ... Thank you .....
Many hours listening to the bark of an M!! Grew up farming with an M as the mighty tractor!
Definitely
Glad to see the M out working again. Thanks for the video!
I hope tick tok gets banned asap.
I got mixed feelings about it but yes I wouldn't mind
Steel wheels dont go flat.😅
Exactly lol
That M is giving that Little Giant quite a ride. WD 40 just before you take her to the field, maybe again in 10 acres.
Wasn't me
Red Power to the rescue 💪🏼❤
I didn't figure it with you lol
I've shaken my head with some of the comments people made on my channel which proved that they didn't actually watch much of the video at all. Your M does have the original hydraulics with the proper IH valve. M&W hydraulics are live. It sure did a good job. Want another Joy Rider seat? I'm sure we have a couple of those kicking around somewhere. A 4 bottom 60 or 70- plow would be nice and you have lots of tractors you can pull one with. I would also like to find one to pull with a WD-9 or something like that. Around here, the 770 plows are common. They are the newer trailing plows (Some are even Case IH) and have auto trips as a rule
60s are rare here...I've seen lots of 70s...love one for my Super M-TA
Oreo muffler. Black/white/black.
M is sounding mighty fine! I feel the same way about tractor rides as you do about plow days. I do it every day, why would I do it on a day off?
Well, it's got to be people that don't watch my channel saying it lol
Why do I feel like I've been put in the 30% category I could fall in the trap though because as I'm watching the video if I get a thought in my head that I want to comment on I'll leave the video make the comment and either go back to the video immediately or at another time depending on what I'm doing I really don't like or I don't have any interest in the electric bicycles so I won't watch those videos but I did make a move in regard to electric batteries lithium for the boat not my bicycle the boat very expensive but then again those bicycles aren't cheap either
Nobody watches the electric bike videos... Those are $2000 bikes that I get for free...So I couldn't give a crap if I make one dollar off the videos
Nice of you to thank your viewership 👌 but if you didn't have good content you wouldn't have any viewership 🤔 So Thank You 💪💥 great video of the Mighty M showing the plough whos the boss 💪💪💥Red Power
Thanks
Trailing implements are certainly in a league of their own.
The upside is convincing a gentleman at a plow day who actually operated this type of equipment back in the day to get on & go a few rounds.
He hesitated and told me he didn’t want to break anything ……
I told him to get on, and not to worry…..
If something breaks…..
We’ll FIX it !!!!!
That big smile on his face when he stopped after 4 rounds was worth everything to me.
He confided in the few adjustments he had made and shared the why & what to look for.
Now in your case where you are actually working your ground for yourself, I’m with you !!!!
Live PTO & live hydraulics, let alone power brakes & steering go a long ways toward actually getting the work done in a timely manner.
To each his own as we all have differing situations.
I'll get on about twice a year and use the rope trip plows... and call it good
M is for massive. H is for handy.
Well FF, I for one am glad that you keep putting out videos. I appreciate the time you spend and your point of view on things, we’re all different and farm or have farmed in totally different parts of the country, if not world, so who’s to say what exactly is right or wrong…take care from, I hope a considered core viewer💥🇺🇸💥
You been around for years...appreciate it
Hello Gino enjoyed your video awesome. I prefer the hydraulic lift over the manual guess im lazy. You have a great day.
It's just age for me lol
I love the sound of them old tractors. They had a rumble to them, not the roar of diesels nowadays if I ever come across the Tumblebug, I will let you know because then you would have the best set up. If anybody I know on here do you have a two-way turning plow and then you have a tumble two-way turning plowanyway I love your videos
I saw one in ohio but it was not for sale
I’m from the old school of moldboard plowing. I was taught that the maximum depth of the plow should only be as deep as 1/2 the width of the shear. This is for good soil turn over and clearance of soil and trash between the plow shin and frame.
That's correct 👌
If I had to judge it looked like the M and the 3 bottom did the nicest job of plowing this year even tho you said it was the toughest on you physically...I enjoyed watching...thank you
That four hundred is going to drive a hard bargain
60 years ago followed my Dad on an M pulling a 2 bottom rope trip. We mostly threw dirt to the middle to counteract years of one way plows. Had to to make furrow irrigation work. When you finished you put a nice thick coat of axle grease on the bottoms
Yeah that's what I do
Jeez man, you make a round then go back and get another tractor. Make another round go get another tractor. C'mon man it's 6-06 you're going to have to get something in the ground pretty soon if you want to beat the frost.
Cmon man...You must not have watched my super c video...explaining that issue
I really enjoy your videos, you are one of maybe 3 channels I watch religiously! I hope you stay around the UA-cams for a long time yet Farmall
Right on man
On another channel a guy wrote in and said a 1066 couldn't pull a 6 bottom 16 inch plow and I said that guy knows nothing about farmall tractor's boom
It definitely could
Keep going! If you live in a big city watching you plow and go to Auctions helps fill a void. Thank you for what you do. Change nothing!
Right on
I first found you on UA-cam because of a pellet gun video. Another hobby besides red tractors and more. Thanks for the videos 🍻🍻
Wow, that was a long time ago 😳
Kissing and not telling only applies to cousins. 😁
You did EXACTLY what I said in your last video! Good job!
Still love watching your videos. How are you doing? I keep you in my prayers daily.
I'll know more June 18th. Appreciate the prayers 🙏
Someone once told me, the Super M uses about the same amount of fuel whether it’s plowing or mowing hay - a lot!
I can't disagree
