I’m a grandmother of 8 with no farming experience but I just love watching you take care of your farm, the animals and your family. You do a great job and you are a wonderful example and inspiration for young people who are working hard and building meaningful lives. Sending love your way:)
Human impact driver; It takes a genius to run a farm on "spit, chewing gum and WD4" (my Grampa). We thank all our hard working Farmers like FTR who just "keep on a keepin on" (my Mom) in spite of what fate throws at you! Enjoyed watching this video, FTR, and may your winter go smoother now that almost everything you own has been rebuilt! (or so it seems!) 😊 Thank you for sharing and thank you for contributing to America's food chain!
Such a pleasure watching your vids! I’m a fam girl of many years ago, so it brings back great memories! Side note, my hubby of 56 years sure could have used that doodad you have to break the tire off the hub, it’s very cool and doable. I can remember him driving over the edge to break it with me on the other side of the tire, but really great memories. Tx FT for taking us along!❤❤❤
Hello Tyler to tighten the gang bolt leave on ground tighten the bolt. Raise it up , use a heavy sledgehammer hit the end of axle not bolt end, lower it tighten more, repeat you can hear the sound when you hit with sledgehammer when its tight. I also find that a patch inside tire is the best repair. Have a great day.
Hello Farmer Tyler Ranch ~ Is so wonderful to see someone being an example for excellent work ethics, & who is so inter- resting to listen to as you solve the problems of the day
Thanks again for sharing. Appreciate your temperament to face off with difficulty and delay using calm determination to press through and accomplish you goals. Also, mingling into the mix you march on with relevant content. Not sure about anyone else but, I enjoy your videos. Blessings today brother. ☝️🙏🙌💪🇺🇸❤️🎯🤠
Good Evening, Tyler and Callie! Rain 🌧️ is coming! A Confusing Life for the next two days! New Pens for Turkeys and Chicken! Fixing the Tire! Two days of problems, but you’ll survive! This is a Great Video! Moving the Cows! A lot of crying! Thank-you! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sometimes no segway is ok. Just action with no explanation all the time is acceptable. Keep a cool head when stuff/breakdowns happen. Love watching you get the job done on your farm. 👍
Hay Tyler good productive day you got a bunch done it may not seem like it but it was a productive day thank you for sharing blessings to you and your family
I use these tire plugs from Tech. They vulcanized together work great. Plugged a tire that a deer antler went through. Farmers 185hp front end loader front tire on the side wall had a hole. Took that kit over and put I think 2 plugs in tire. Lasted 3 yrs. Feeds 600 head of cattle and used it for farm work. Lucky on that repair 👍
The outer disk being cracked is from turning too sharp with the disk in the ground. It stresses and flexes the disk not to mention its bad on the bearings.
Have you tried plug/patches? You have to break the bead and install from inside. Clean, rough inside of tire around hole like putting a patch on a tube. Patch has a rubber plug in middle you pull from inside to out thru hole after applying glue to inside of tire. They work much better than strand plugs
The tire of the disk should be off the ground and not rotating with with disk in the ground. You could pull the disk to the end of the field to change the tire. I've never used rubber cement or another lube when inserting plugs. I've never had one fail by coming completely out. Maybe using the cement made the plug fail in that manner.
I'm wondering what Rivet doesn't like about Buddy. It's got to be his size! Mind you Buddy does have an attitude that is in proportion to his bulk. Looking at him now, it is hard to imagine him as that tiny bottle calf chasing you around your backyard.
Tyler, I have tightened many gang bolts (tine bars) with two pipe wrenches. Go by a pawn shop or two and find a couple of 36 or 48 inch pipe whenches you don't beating the ever loving pe-wadely-do out of if you don't have such, wear your gloves and glasses and get'er did! When you get it snugged up, walk down the row and give each a love tap with a about a 3 lb. hammer and it will often brake any dirt and buildup loose. As for that cracked disk, in a pinch cut a 1/4" plate about 1" over crack diameter and place it beside the disk. As you most likely know, that leading right disk takes the most abuse and wear. If possible to do so, move that disk to another position. It is typical for offset tandem disk plows to wear from right to left. While doing maintenance, evaluate wear and decide if rotating disk positions is viable. It may not be an issue for you and your acreage. My experience, on disks covering 14 ft and more, it is worth it. Enjoy your content, have a great day! 👋🤠
We learned to store our disk with the disks down and tires as far up as possible. Still half the time we had to air the tire up. It helps to buy a portable air compressor
Have you ever tried using 347 stainless welding rods on that high carbon steel? I have had decent luck when extracting broken high carbon bolts from castings.
Hello From Mark In Kentucky; I wanted to mention that the inside of the broken disc would be good to keep to make a natural ready made shim with. In the past, I have welded broken discs with 7018 3/32 welding rods before for cracks extending long ways out to the edge of the disc but I never tried welding a disc broken like what your disc was that was broken, So making a shim would be making good use of a broken disc. With your plasma cutter, you should be able to cut the inside of the disc very cleanly to whatever size you need to make the broken piece work for a shim. I also grew up on a farm and we didn’t waste anything if at all possible The implement tires usually fit the “X Factor” in that the tires are a never ending process. I have dealt more than once with tires that have never leaked after sitting idle only to go flat after putting the tire on after trying to use it - It Is What It Is.
Years ago we had a gang wrench - basically a box end wrench that would fit the gang nut and about a 12” solid handle. It was heavy duty and we would pound on it with a sledge hammer to tighten the gang.
Those chickens cracked me up. After you removed the fence, They all went to the fence line and stood in a row. 😂You think you put them that way or trained them but we all know you didn't, I'm surprised you didn't say something about them. Alot of farmers when they move the cow's whistle or holler something simple and that gets the cow's moving.
No you should reach out to what the hell is to see if you can buy some of the tools off of them because they have brand new tools that came out of a storage unit that would suit your needs
I love sweet Buddy boy! He's mighty special! I'd of thought Rivet would be used to him by now...especially since Buddy isn't in competition for Rivet's girls!😘 Hope you don't have anymore breakdowns disking the garden!
I was kind of surprised that when you raise the wheels on your disc that they still turn. Do the wheels set the depth? I always had a 3pt disc and I had to run it all the way down so its weight would allow the disc to dig in. So that's why I was thinking the wheels would be completely up and off the ground.

I don't wish bad luck on anyone but its nice to see that I'm not the only one that has days like yours. Keep up the good work

Your show takes many of us back to our youth. Even solving a cotterkey problem is fun to watch.
I love the , "Human Impact Wrench"!
Tyler, sometimes no matter how hard you try, stuff goes on wrong and the best part about you is, you take in stride.
Some days are just ‘one step forward, two steps back’. Tomorrow’s another day. Buddy and Riveter!!! 😂

Chickens in the front yard is a beautiful thing.
Last scene with the cattle at sunset is so pretty.
I love watching your videos your always calm and a very good teacher.😊
Having all that life around your home does good things for the soul of the people, especially the “ littles”
14:25 "Let's just pretend we didn't see that" -VGG 😂
There are days where fixing or repairing things seems like the only thing I do!😂😂
Thanks for the longer videos lately Tyler. Great one as usual.
Glad you like them!

Truly astonishing day. Best wishes.
Excellent work Tyler. As Always u Rock!
You are so innovative when it comes to improvising. Love your channel. Maybe that little bit of rain will help to keep the grass growing.
What a coincidence, our fly pressure is way down too! Mind you 16F temps and 4" of snow last night just might be contributing factors.
I don’t know about anyone else but where I come from front yard chickens are pretty common. Nothing trashy or to be ashamed of about that.
I agree...if someone doesn't like it it, tough. We all have our opinions and you don't have to please everyone.
Tyler you are one busy Man., over worked and tried, To Much 10-24-2023❤. You do have a Beautiful Family Wife and 2 Children 👍🏽👍🏽❤️
Sometimes no segway is ok. Just action with no explanation all the time is acceptable. Keep a cool head when stuff/breakdowns happen. Love watching you get the job done on your farm. 👍
Plans are nice but I'm certain whatever you do on the fly will be productive.
Always another thing, truer words ever said . Esp on a farm.
Hay Tyler good productive day you got a bunch done it may not seem like it but it was a productive day thank you for sharing blessings to you and your family
My vocabulary increases when you ID parts of your farm 🚜 equipment 😂
“Well, that ought to last for…. some amount of time.” 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Wow learned something...did not know you couldn't weld disk blades...as they're so hardened...brittle.
I use these tire plugs from Tech. They vulcanized together work great. Plugged a tire that a deer antler went through. Farmers 185hp front end loader front tire on the side wall had a hole.
Took that kit over and put I think 2 plugs in tire. Lasted 3 yrs. Feeds 600 head of cattle and used it for farm work. Lucky on that repair 👍
Juggling...everyday to keep the operation moving forward. Good update!
Thanks for sharing farmer tyler ranch I enjoyed the video and I hope you have a great day
Well when it rains it pours lol but I new u can handle it good job going forward have a great day .
Thanks!
Its awesome that you can fix things for yourself[ love watching you work around the farm
Using a welding rod with a high nickel content seems to work pretty well for welding disk blades
Thanks for taking us along! Look forward your next video. Hope all goes well for you and yours.
I have to laugh at myself. Every time I come up with a question (ie. why don't you weld the disk), within 30 sec. you give me the answer. 😀👍
In the future, put a short brass valve stem on the disc, and put a long pipe on the pipe wrench for more leverage. Keep up the good work.
Problems problems I know you can handle it and get things fixed.😊
Loved the Ride along!

GOOD AFTERNOON TYLER
Nice video God bless
Good job
I agree with that! My T/A cable broke this morning, cutting hay!

imagine how easy farming would be if nothing broke just weather ,sickness and markets to worry about
I really like your commentary to your videos.. You make it fun and real all in one.
Buddy is so big and awesome,
Why dont you seed Fescue and Rye grass they are great winter growers in CA it can help supplement

Old disk blades make for nice wire anchors for corner posts 😅

You're a FARM!! I think it wd be nice for ppl to see chickens!

Been there and done that with a disk. I keep a couple extra disk blades around just for such an occasion.
Deer antler hole I put about 6 plugs I believe. On 85' harrows.
Love every video
If each tap on each disk blade with a hammer or something hard while they are off the ground they should make a ringing sound if they are tight .
add a couple large flat washers to the shaft. thats standard practice
Enjoyed watching the video Tyler 😅
I’ve started changing our valve stems to metal ones that have rubber washers so they last longer.
thx
No you should reach out to what the hell is to see if you can buy some of the tools off of them because they have brand new tools that came out of a storage unit that would suit your needs
Buddy ❤❤
I love sweet Buddy boy! He's mighty special! I'd of thought Rivet would be used to him by now...especially since Buddy isn't in competition for Rivet's girls!😘 Hope you don't have anymore breakdowns disking the garden!
Thx again
Always hated to have to tighten disc spindles but I had 2 36 inch aluminum pipe wrenches & 6 ft cheater pipe that made it easier
Dad always said there would be days like this, and it looks like you are having one of those.☹☹
Nice work
When I worked on a horse breeding farm, my friend had 7 vehicles die on her - most were Tractors and 2 were cars -she never lived it down
Dude, again, listening to you talk to yourself cracks my shit up!!!
Not the best of days for Farmer Tyler, may tomorrow be better...
Thank you for the video awesome
I think the chickens would look good from the road
Tacky is grandma hanging your shorts out to dry on the line in front from the mail box to the porch. Then the School Bus stops out front.
l meant to ask why you didnt put a couple of bales under the roof of the covered part of the yard they would have a nice bed
Get you a harbor freight cordless impact gun, well worth the money
I can’t carry you. 😂😆
Build a box end wrench with a foot long or so handle, then hit it with hammer too tighten it
We used to run foam filled tires on our slip loader. Maybe they would work on your disk?
That’s not a bad idea
Maybe you should put tubes in the tires
Tyler what about brazing the disk?
I was kind of surprised that when you raise the wheels on your disc that they still turn. Do the wheels set the depth? I always had a 3pt disc and I had to run it all the way down so its weight would allow the disc to dig in. So that's why I was thinking the wheels would be completely up and off the ground.
Question. How come Ring Rollers are never tight ? The rings always flop around ?
Why do u disk that field? Is it because the cows walked on it so much that it turned the soil to dirt and will u put new seed down
so many farm machines dont need pneumatic tires
How is your cows doing
Tyler what breed of chickens are their, that you have?
Why put bales in a shed with no roof? They will get wet and have no air circulation to dry out.
