    Love the old mini dump truck! My grandfather just gave me one of his old farm trucks very similar to your dump truck, but just a flatbed without dumping capability for me to use getting my own hay farm started. I’m looking forward to breathing new life into it and making it a working truck again! I’ll keep it until it rots away, and then bury it in the hay!

    10 million acres of crops destroyed - yes, you all were highly blessed. Really interesting to see you line up those ears and show the height and count - what you look for. You are going to be shocked when you see CR. Take some film there. Hi Molly, missed ya.

    On the gas can,,,,, install a car valve stem in the back top part. Remove the core. This works awesome for venting the can. You can remove the cap and it's just like the old style cans. I also put a rubber cap (made for chairs legs) on the pour end to cap it. You'll thank me after you do this👍👍👍👍.
    Good info in this video, thanks for sharing and I'm glad the storm missed you👍👍✌️

    Awesome tool skid! Think about a Goldenrod (496-5) Fuel tank Filter with Replacement Water Block Element (carry a spare filter and the wrench to change it) keep the fuel as clean as possible, nothing like chasing a dirty or water in the fuel issues when time is tight! This ULSD Diesel gets crap growing in it and needs to be filtered out! Hint start inspecting the diesel tanks on your Equipment for crap! That's another issue that can creep up ya! Be SAFE!

    Midland vs CB Radios on the farm... We still use CB radios especially during the harvest season. Undoubtedly the CBs disappoint us every season. Sometimes you cannot even hear when next to the combine and other times when you are on the other side of the field. We are just so pot committed with CBs between the combine, grain carts, big trucks, utility trucks, etc. .... hard to make the switch. Look forward to your feedback from using the Midlands during harvest

    Thanks for the video, a nice break during my derecho clean up. Beginning to hate trees and chainsaws. Mount your vise to a flat plate that is on a square tube to fit in hitch receiver, makes a great base can’t move whole truck when using vice.

      Michael Stark I’ve been seeing pictures and it sure looks like a mess.

    • @michaelstark703
      @michaelstark703 3 роки тому

      iowANFarmer Indeed it is, we are all sailing on the same boat up here. Lots of grain bins, barns, and most crops gone. Empty bins for future crop storage a great target for wind.

    • @iowANFarmer
      @iowANFarmer  3 роки тому

      Michael Stark what do you think yields will be in the down crop? Will it rot?

    • @michaelstark703
      @michaelstark703 3 роки тому

      iowANFarmer I have heard a lot of talk of saving for silage, or trying to combine in one direction to save. I don’t know how you would find that much demand and storage for that much product. Also depends on rain we get from now on. Lots of questions! What I have seen locally the ears weren’t filled well because it was so dry, stalks were already firing and leaves straight up. It’s a heck of a challenge, beans are in far better shape, corn looks like you rolled fields with a land roller. Plus lots of bins are gone, one guy lost 4 million bushel of storage. Wish I had the answers.

    Probably not worth it, great setup as it is, but you could add just a couple inches to the front between the skid and headache rack. That would solve your shelves and handy man jack. What's that hadle of a shovel 1.5 inches plus material thickness. Great skid.

      "Legal load" is a funny thing on Iowegian gravel roads when the Quarry is only a mile and a half away in Flatlandia... my quarry is 4 miles away but 750 vertical feet below my place on a paved highway, I'd never get away with that. ;)
