"Volunteer Barrel". That made me laugh. Keep up the great videos.
That was so cool your daughter driving the truck out to pick you up out in the field, This is what we need in society kids helping there parents out
Even a bad situation fixed with positivity you are so impressive and a great role model for all the young fans just wow what a good person thanks again
Thank God Colin is ok and damage is just equipment. Great example how life for a farmer changes in a heartbeat when everything is going so smooth. Thank you for sharing and good luck with the rest of the field work. God bless.
I am glad Colin was safe and didn't get hurt.
Rich man that Tony Faust...wide open beautiful Montana country and riding a big red tractor with his daughter...I’m jealous.
BURN! That Swift driver comment was a good one.
Back it the 80s it was JB Hunt!
Hay Collin at least the track didn’t go flat!!!😎🚜👍😂
Tony your a good man. A lot of people would have been very nasty to their employee having an issue like that. But you were very calm. Your a great person.
Only one question when something like this happens. Is anyone hurt? Once the answer is no move on. Machines can be replaced or repaired. People not so much.
Noah Murphy amen
Yes i agree
I had the same thought. Iv seen some pretty hot heads but than again Iv seen a lot of stupid. If everyone could act like Tony a class act person this world would be a lot better place
Tony, it is quite obvious you are one of the good guys, you handled the tractor incident with calm and grace. I'm glad Colin is ok too. These things happen in life and come on without warning, they make equipment everyday. Good people are hard to come by. You all stay safe out there
Great video Tony and Colin also your Dad Tony
Hey Collin-- next time you see a cloud-- get out and wash the windows-- it'll be sure to rain on you then!
Isn't it amazing what a simple thing like a marker board on a piece of twine does. The crazy Canuk has a great idea.
They way a single situation is handled can certainly mold a young man... hats off to all of you! As I follow several of y’all operations I see young men who a committed and dedicated to your family farms. I truly hope they appreciate the patience it takes to help them become young responsible men! That being said .. how blessed you are to have them a part of your business in these days! Gods peace,grace and bountiful season for you all!
Loved the Swift driver comment!!😂😂 I’m sure Colin had a pucker factor of 10. Glad nobody was hurt.
Tony I loved seeing your daughter hanging out with you doing her school work. That time is so precious. Also loved seeing her driving the truck to help you. Farm children learn so much growing up, and yet still have fun.
A few funny’s in this one. Keep em coming. 😂😂😂
Pin looks awesome Tony
Tony you are blessed. You have 3 lovely girls. When you get old they will come to the home to see you. Them boys are either hunting or fishing or working Ha Ha
Really appreciate your videos and especially seeing some with your dad in them. God bless you all and looking forward to the next show!
Ol rope in the bucket trick! Love it! Mike Rowe would be pleased!
My heart feels for you Collin 💟. I was hauling double wagons with 1,240 bushels of corn to the elevator with ice snow and slush on the gravel roads. I had to take a different route to a breakdown on the road I usually take. Drove that road many times in the truck not realizing the grade until well let's say when I got to the bottom of the hill. I climbed out of the tractor to inspect everything. I didn't loose a kernel of corn and both wagon's stayed in line. I believe 💯 that only by the grace of God all went well. My Johnny came down same hill In semi stoped beside me got out and hugged me 😊. Pammie I am so sorry I forgot to tell you that you could of gone one mile east then avoided the hill. I wiped by tears sucked it up to keep a hauling. So having clean underwater in the lunch box not a bad idea. Be kind to yourself. Farming is one happening event with disaster always lurking. Yet I wouldn't be happy doing anything else, besides raising chickens 😁🐓
Glad to see you are putting the metal lath to good use.
Your skills & comfort level will improve as you find more projects to machine.
Way to stay calm. Not gettin upset or mad
Well I really appreciated this video: haven't commented much on here before, but this one with the jack-knife - who would have thunk it? We haave proper steep hlls in the UK and I haave experienced jacknife with forager+trailer on grass, we plough fields so steep that engaging the clutch and the tractor still rolls down the hill plowing 4-Fur's - but THIS! an Artic on the Plains - gives one an idea of what tonnage can do even behind a Planter, there. - and then the jammed track.... Oh oh oh Yes the steering of Artic tractors - can be frustrating at times. Great tip with the rope n bucket, Keep some spare fuses in the ash tray ! Thanks for posting . Slàinte Mhath .
That was unusual but very interesting. Thank goodness Colin is ok.
You guys are great👍
Great video as always. God bless and stay safe !
First on FastAG? Your gaining on it Tony and crew! Keep safe.
😭😭
Loved the Swift comment.
You gotta hate those steep hills. It’s good to know you can carry on your seeding operation safely. Don’t trip on your Mike cord. Praying for rain. 🙏
Hey Tony I just love watching you and the Welker's Farm there in Montana especially when you and leg arms are working on the lathe I think that's so cool
You're up there in God's country. you have a beautiful Farm. some really cool equipment and they say go big or stay at home. You guys go big. That will look good with some new tracks on it but you guys stay safe and have a good one😎👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
It's awesome the way you handled that situation. Long as Colin is ok, that's the main thing. God bless
Yes a helpless feeling as you start to slide. Had a manure spreader push me down a hill, jack-knifed tractor and rolled it on to its side. Wire fence stopped it rolling into a bigger dip. Amazingly enough no window glass was broken, just a new wing. All in slow motion...... Good you are safe.
Great video Tony
Like the rope/bucket marker. Paint the marker board a bright color for high visibility. Just an idea.
Glad it turned out ok, God bless.
Farming looks hard!
At least everyone is ok and everything came out mostly unscathed, could have been much worse. Just another day on the farm. Great video.
Thanks for the video and always 👍👍's up.
Well at least he stopped before he really tore something up. Good job handling that BTW. I’ve had to deal with h that some and it doesn’t help to blow a gasket because, when you do it there is no one to blame but yourself.
Can’t wait to see the girls start farming
You could be a jet pilot, with all those screens. I remember when a four row planter was a big deal.
Good video Tony y'all stay safe and good luck with the rest of the year
I saw recently that Larson Farms had ordered new tracks for one of their tractors and they hadnt come in in time gor planting so you might check on that soon in case you run into that problem
Hey Collin, I have jack-knifed at least twice. Too much weight on the wagon for the steepness of the hill where I was turning and the weight of the tractor.
Tony check out Riverbend metal shop. They make fertilizer screens to screen into the truck. Don’t cut fill times they work great!
I loved the Swift shot. Hopefully you will be getting some decent rain soon. They call for it here, and then it is a no show. When they don’t, we get a bit.
I miss farming. I would plant all night because im a night person and my brother and uncle would plant during the day.
Glad Colin was safe. It’s no fun being pushed around like that. That’s why we don’t sell monster grain carts in the Palouse.
New tracks and more weight!!
That tractor is pretty light.
Great stuff, Tony and family. Nice Nerf shootout.
You could plant another hundred acres with the dirt you got out of that filter 😉
Full Send Mode!!!
Tony maybe a weird question but what is everyone’s favorite jobs meaning Amy, your dad , Colin, the girls and you mine was always the big tractors especially the old Steiger favorite tractor ever as always great video thank you be safe
Been having the same trouble with the pins on my Seedmaster, too. Check the roll pins on the back side of all of those, about half of mine are cracked and splitting.
Love the Swift comment. No body is perfect and we all make mistakes, just seems those Swift drivers always get caught on camera doing something really, really stupid. I always steer clear of them at the truck stop, seen too many of them trying to back into a spot between two trucks and end up hitting both trucks and then trying to drive away.
Thanks guys!!
Tony funny how the air cleaner looks just like a ford 6.9 diesel air cleaner.
Colin is too good of a guy to be calling him a Swift driver, besides a Swift driver would have rolled the tractor 😂😂
I agree
Stop
Whining
I’m
F***ing
Trying
Great video, How much does all that equipment weigh ? Glad everyone is ok, Tony employer of the year. For showing us how to resolve a situation with class. 💯
The Quadtrac alone is about 55-60k and I"m gonna guess that the drill and cart is another 60k maybe more
I about fell out of my chair laughing at the Swift comment
He Tony, buy yourself a 3-jaw self-centering chuck if you don't have one, it makes it so easier, you can put that 3-jaw chuck also in that 4-jaw chuck if you reverse the jaws and dial it out with your dial indicator. 😉
I have a three jaw. Someone didn’t think I could set up a 4 jaw awhile back.
@@FastAgMontana
Ok, thanks for the reply, ..... it is one of those machines that you cannot miss in a shop. 👍
😆lol swift driver good one 👍
20:33,. That's just so wrong 🤔🤔, but funny as hell 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
50k subs congratulations
And now we know the real reason farmers go with leather seats. Learnin'
I guess that's a volunteer barrel 😂🤣
I priced out a replacement belt for your quad track. They tell me there 3500 series belts on there, and get replaced with the 6500 series. In Canada, the price is $14,000 for one. Not an easy item to find.
For your "Mike cord" try using a piece of PVC pipe about 2" diameter, and paint it orange. The cord will roll off easily, and you can see the high visibility color from a long ways away.
I drove my uncles T9 560 last year and hit the auto steer button a bit early after going around a tree and it through the duals back into the draw bar of the seeder ant well snapped it clean in half.
not a good feeling
Saw a pylon on a rope used as a marker for the semis. Mike Mitchell
Get yourself a Pylon, run your rope through the inside of the cone and knot it just outside the top of the cone. Then when your done filling your drill, just turn the pylon upside down and coil your rope up inside it and secure it under your air cart somewhere-upside down
Tony what chemical does your Dad spray on those volunteer barrels to get rid of them I was just wondering in case they start popping up here in Indiana Great video i hope all of you can stay safe and well and Colin might need an anxiety pill
Tony why not invest in a power cord loom and use it like the piece of wood in your MIKE cord. Just a thought.
Poor Colin ! 💪👍🏼
your getting whole field acreage's here in one headland turn.
I remember seeing a 7721 jd combine beating a 4840 jd tractor down a hill. didn't seem to be that big of a hill. but when I sprayed that field in the spring the wings slaped and I mean slaped shout on the 3 wheeled big A sprayer. woke me up. mid east Alberta.
My Cousin went backwards down a hill couple years ago in a Combine and totalled it in the Sticks.
Colin! Tell us all about your jack knife incident in slow motion story.
Yes like it is on the farm shit happens that you bbever expect good job guys farm hard play harder
Ótimo Vídeo que Deus abençoe sempre você e sua família e abençoe a sua prestação 🌾🌄🌱🌫️🌦️⛈️🌧️🚜🚛⛽🛢️.
Awesome video thanks for sharing stay safe
Go Pro is the John Deere of a/v equipment.
Darn you have a puncture in your tracks Colin. Question is, did they start going backwards like wheels do in that situation? Happened to me many times on one farm which was steep. cardio-vascular work-out!!
At the 7:03 mark I noticed you are having an issue with that end hopper bin, panel corrugations folding in on themselves and wondered if there is aeration in that bin. Unfortunately we have a number of bins we have to repair and in our case its due to aeration causing grain to shrink and pulling the weakest part of the panels down and also sheering the bottom bolt that the stiffener connects to the hopper, as well as corrosion around the bottom panel where it bolts onto the hopper as that is where the panel is failing. Bin age and lack of design for what was flat bottom bins put onto hoppers and having more down load on the walls then they were ever designed for.
we put peas in that bin 10 years ago and it did that a few days later at the peas settled down.
@@FastAgMontana Aerating peas is what really began the process for our bins, the moisture driven out of peas is what we feel really sped up the corrosion in that seam where crap sits at the hopper ring. Westeel has stiffener instructions of adding what amounts to twice as many stiffeners on some of the larger diameter bins and also adding more bolts up the wall through the stiffeners to take a normal bin to install onto a hopper so indeed they recognized weaknesses years ago. Around here its hard to come by a bin crane to rent ( the style behind a tractor with a hydraulic winch, westeel used to make one ) so I ended up buying a used one.
Nice! How many times can you fill up the seeder and fertizer before you have to fill the trucks back up?
I can’t get two full fills out of a semi load.
Um forte abraço do Edilson do Brasil 🇧🇷
We have hap problems with those air compressor plugs arcing a bit when plugging together and blowing the fuse
That must be a very steep hill. Glad everyone is alright. Underwear can be replaced.
That Colleen is good at everything he does. Not vary many people can jack knive a 6 000 lb Tracter in the middle of a 2000 acre field
6,000lb tractor? Did you mean 60,000lb?
There is a farmer in Western Canada that uses the same method as you do for loading your carts but he has a orange cone attached to the rope.
That’s why I call it the Mike Cord. The idea came from him.
Mike Mitchell?
Volunteer barrel. 😂😂😂😂
Paint the block it helps to see in the stubble.
Tony you do a good Jethro Bodine, Ya'll come back Ya hear. You got any possum?
Just build a Frame with some fine hardware wire to go between your hopper bottom and auger neck.. it'll filter out the chunks..
Tractor jackknifed - couple of questions from a novice operator. Pulling that much equipment downhill is normal to expect it to push a tractor that heavy or is that an unusual situation? Also, if the resolution is to always turn with equipment in the ground does it damage the planter? thks enjoy all your videos - excuse the elementary questions - learning
If it was a tow between cart it wounded happen as easily with the extra weight on the cart. It’s not that steep of a hill but it is rocky. There have been a couple other drills in the area over the years that have had the same problem. Making a gradual turn won’t hurt the drill.
Maby one of those cranks they use to roll ratchet straps would work on that string?
13:45 *POPTARTS* are *MRE's* for the *normal* people, errr *civilians* .... lol
👍👍
Video starts with giving Jesus Christ praise, homeschooled kids, and a member of NRA?
My kinda people! 👍
