I enjoy your humour regarding your joke that you don’t know what you are doing about fixing dent in auger when in fact your knowledge regarding repairs is extensive in a very skillful manner.
Andy if I didn't know better i would say that Nathan was your son. I've been watching your videos for several years and it seems like Nathan is your go to employee he's a hard worker and looks like he's a good mechanic. Good help is hard to find in this day and age. Stay safe.🍻🍻
Very impressive family dairy operation. The Hourigan family legacy lives on in documentation. I looked up the late Mrs. Hourigan on Find A Grave. She sure lived a long and profound life.
I have been going back & watching some of your older videos & it blows my mind the capital investment in equipment required to spread on the fields the volume of manure your dairy operation produces.
I've done this trick before, never fun working on augers in my opinion. For someone that doesn't "know what he's doing", you sure do know what you're doing, don't care what anyone says Andy. Great video as always, cheers :)
I knew you had it fixed before you even started working on it. The funny part was! When you said that you didn't have any ideal what you was doing. You had it right from the get go!!!
Maybe a good idea to weld on a couple small bolts for studs along the bottom of the auger and use them to bolt in a piece of aluminum reinforcement under the auger to help keep it from being dented again? Happy 4th Andy !
Hi Andy . I use a bolt for round dents and I’ve pull kinks out of hollow tube like this by welding the edge of a flat piece of metal across in the kink . The same direction as what hit it . Kinda in the middle area of the kink .🤗. Hope makes sense . You do a great job repairing things 🤝
@@FarmingFixingFabricating . Thank u . I’m sure you’d work a way of pulling 🤔 . A com along ratchet 🤗. I do it on a small scale with a pliers 😅. Anyway hope it won’t happen again 😉
In our area a neighbor had a sicours jack . You have to pull the auger, but weld on what diameter pipe you need and go. We have half inch pipe couplet welded to it,and various laughs of pipe to run it from the end. Just a suggestion! Good luck. 😅😅😅😅😅 I
Andrew is growing like a weed. He is gonna be a brute. Amazing what he.does at his age. Andy your.entire family.all all hard workers. You and Mom have done.great. Betting Charlie is going to be a Dr. :)
you can also use a mirror to see where you have to rate out now you don't have a tool with which to knock it out a stench with a weight that you can pull back and forth
Is the corn you feed before using the stuff in the silo yours? Just curious why you don't feed out the corn in the silo first to avoid spoilage. I suppose if you use the corn in storage you pay less storage. Love the videos!
I don't know, but I was thinking if you heated around the outside of the fent and in to the middle of it as you tighten it up it may work ??? 🤔🤔 Great video as usual
Stuff happens, and his crew tries to keep the dumb stuff from happening. The auger was damaged by a contract driver. Pobodies nerfect, but his crew works to prevent damage. 😂
@@janicewilliams6820 I work on a farm. I have run my own dairy farm. You don't keep people around that screw stuff up, and after watching many of the FFF videos, I can say with 90% odds that the crew is not likely to do stupid stuff. The Hourigan family has hired good people, and have raised good ones that are involved in the operation. Andy specifically said it was a delivery driver that damaged the auger.
@@FarmingFixingFabricating if you heat it from the edge of the dent to the center you pull it back without anny problem sorry language barrier im from the Netherlands
Hi Andy. Just watched 3 other UA-cam channels that i watch. They were in Iowa at a factory tour and Farm testing out the latest from JD. Farming with Zoe did a 2 parter. Laura farms and The millennial farmer all did one video. Ag with Emma and some construction channels covered other equipment. Good stuff coming down the pipeline. Interesting videos. Enjoyed the video .
ANDY. IF you had any experience welding you'd stay away from that little wheel on your hay head. An Amber from your torch could cause a slow leak in it.

Andrew is growing up fast. It's noticeable that the little fella is getting bigger. He's a good worker too.
He's a swell lil guy.
Nice work! Just a little paintless dent repair. Sounds like the driver owes the shop fridge a case of beer.

You are adding body work to what has to be done on the farm 👍🚜
That's pretty ingenious fixing Andy. Nice job.
Have a good 4th Andy if you can find time 4 it 😊😊
Another good one Andy Y'all have a HAPPY 4th of July 🇺🇲 🚜🐄👍
Your giving away some of your secrets.😂
I know right
Darn, Andy she's almost better then new....didn't surprise me a bit 👍👍🍻
Another very interesting video Thank you Andy 😊😊😊😊
I usually weld a piece of chain to the tube heat it and pull it with a come a long and just leave the link welded on if it's no going to be in the way

Neat little trick to pull a dent out. Expected one of those pull hammer thingies.
Hawk Tuah! Spat on that thang ( tire) NATHAN!

Tell the young viewers how important safety glasses are when stuff under pressure sometimes pops.
Pretty late now but I expected to see you touching the outside of that dent with a few hammer taps to take out the stress??
You’re pretty handy there, Mr. farmer good job
Boy you are patient

At 22:40 all I had was visions of the whole bottom melting out.
It's hotter than coo coo brown down here in Ky
Guess I should have been more patient about talking about the hammer and just watched instead of talk! Sorry. Goo video again ! Thumbs up!
Thank you happy Fourth of July
No thought of the day from Nate? or did I miss one?

Can you store corn seed for the next year? Thanks olgoat
Dang Andy, you could probably get a job at a paint and body shop. 😂😂
Hi Andy !
Good job !
Thanks Andy for your time and everybody have a good day at the farm ! 🙋♂️
Great Vid 👍👍👍👍🍺🍺🍺🍺
You finally admitted it on camera !!!!
Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without. 🙂Thanks again for the content Andy.

Hello Andy nice repair you all have a good day.
Thank you for another Great video. Cheers
with the expansion are you buying an other feeder mix to hand the extra cows
No we have enough of everything
What ever happen to your FJDynamics dealership for tractor autosteer ?
I still have it…. Do you need one?i have a demo unit for sale currently
Good to see Andrew working hard. Looks like he needs a haircut
Slidehammer the next time?
With a magnet?
Unbelievable craftsmanship from someone who doesn't know what they're doing 😂

You don't find much custom storage for Hi Moisture corn. Andy has it figured out how to extend his supply of the stuff. I'm amazed at the operation.
It’s all good
Worked. ❤

Heat is hard to control though
👍
how much time do you spend repairing things your crew breaks?

@@MorganOtt-ne1qj sooooooo you work on the farm or just assuming?

2:22 You got nuts? 🤣
I am glad I wasn’t doing the straightening…. I would have heated the pipe and made a bunch of bubbles
👍
Great repair job guys
Couldn’t you cut that dent out, hammer it to shape and weld it back in?
Yeah you could but then you risk hitting the flighting while cutting
Next time pul it and heat it from the outside in with a Torch flame
Would heat bend it back?

What is the pipe's SDR/wall thickness (not sure how that pipe is spec'd)?
Maybe 10 ga

Where do you get your high moisture corn during the cold months of the year?
We fed dry corn up to this point
ANDY. IF you had any experience welding you'd stay away from that little wheel on your hay head. An Amber from your torch could cause a slow leak in it.
It’s a good thing that I ain’t doing any welding with the torches then
@@FarmingFixingFabricating just pulling your leg Andy!
Happy Wednesday Andy
