@@medamit She was a great tractor

@bearpawtimber8739 I bought mine used and it had a broken frame. My friend put 3/8" steel fish plates on the inside of each rail. It was broken in a very difficult area. He had to figure out how to navigate around a motor mount and a hydraulic valve. The break was on the right hand side vertically between the 2 rearward bolt holes where the loader brackets mount, and could only be plated on one side. The left side wasn't broken in half yet but it had a crack in the same location. He cut an oval in the broken part and welded through it into the fish plate, then welded the oval piece back in and then welded the top and bottom edges. The plates also have 2 bolts through them and are sandwiching the frame between the fishplates and the loader brackets. Very ingenious idea. Now its stronger than the original. I don't know how to attach a picture to this comment. I am sure there are others that have been in the same situation and were trying to figure out how to repair it adequately in such a difficult area of the frame. The local dealer said several of the TYM built tractors had the same frame and were subject to cracking and breaking because they were too thin and people never realized the bolts for the loader brackets come loose from slamming into piles of wet snow. The guy I bought my 234 from even managed to break the loader mounts. The tractor only has 387 hours on it, and still looks new, but the guy lived on top of a mountain and has a long steep driveway. He wouldn't admit to it, but I speculate that he was running out of room to plow the snow mid season, and was getting a run from the top of the hill and slamming into piles of wet, heavy snow with the blade angled. I am in the Inland Pacific Northwest and we get really wet and heavy snow up here.

No sir. It came in the kit, but I just lightened up the hammer spring. I was happy with the rest from the factory

I got the Alaskan and put the Wilson 10 lb trigger and hammer springs in it. Did you ever get light strikes?

@@pugilist102 I never had light strike problems but since some ammunition has soft or hard primers depending of brands and manufacture, example, 9mm NATO ammunition primers are harder than standard 9mm. Better stick with those you tried and you gun likes.

Awesome. Thanks for stopping by my channel. I've got a better video on here with the feather game. I will find out which one it is and let you know.

It's called Tree swallow human interaction

Thanks for stopping by my channel brother. Watched your TikTok this morning and it lead me to your KZbin channel. This was about 60 miles short of the Canadian border in the Idaho panhandle. I bought land up there in 2012 and built a little cabin. Lived up there by myself completely off grid for 7 years. Eventually I got super lonely and relocated back to southern Idaho to be with my pops. Sold my land to some good friends of mine, and they built their dream home. Just waiting on the next adventure to present itself once this economy collapses again so I can afford to pay cash for something.

@@bearpawtimber8739 wow!! I can sincerely appreciate that! And I I appreciate you stopping by as well. It’s crazy how our journeys guide us through times and places and people. Your story is very inspiring though to say the least and honestly I’m glad you found our channel and vice versa. I have no doubt that you will once again gain your freedom and another piece of land which by that time will be well deserved. It was really nice to meet you my brother by the way my name is Dusty.

I've always Wanted to try the 9mm version. Ruger will always be my go to gun. I finally got with the times and bought a semi auto. Ruger Max 9. Sweet little shooter and EDC.

@@bearpawtimber8739 agreed! I like Smith and Wesson and have had several Smiths from the older pinned and recessed models to the newest two piece barrels and with the lock. Not a fan of the newer stuff. With Ruger, their warranty department is second to none. Also the general construction of their guns have not changed. You can buy a brand new 4-inch GP100, and you're getting the exact same gun as if you bought one that was twenty years old.

@@flip97gt Absolutely. Don't fix it if it ain't broke. I own a few smiths as well, but more Ruger than anything else. Did you know that S&W made hunting rifles back in the day? I have a model 1500 7mm magnum from the 80s. Very beautiful and accurate. Check them out if you haven't heard of them. Several different calibers in this model

Awesome. A heated cab. That must be fantastic. Cup of coffee, some good tunes. I bet that makes snowblowing fun.

@@bearpawtimber8739 Awesome. Love my t264. Great for clearing my land.

Thanks for watching and the comment. My first winter up there was rough. Nothing more that campfire warmed water with a bucket and washcloth. I was pretty spoiled in this video on year 5.

@@bearpawtimber8739 ya you were spoiiled....I am doing it the way you did before....

Thanks for watching, and thanks for your opinion. I use the wood ash in my garden, and last time I checked using propane to ignite my pile won't leave any residue to leach into my soil. Guess I should've mentioned that for those who want criticize. 🤷

Hello friend,i want to just teasingabout the choise off words.I know you ment sasoline of course but overhere is gasoline-benzine.propane wil not contaminate youre soil.i also use my ashes in the garden from my woodstove inside (only clean ashes.) tomato's love it.Stay healthy,greetings from Belgium

Wish I could buddy, but I don't live up there in the forest anymore.

@@bearpawtimber8739 aww man, i really love watching the smoke came from the fire it's just so satisfying

I always thought they stayed in the same spot until I worked at a course. Tons of strategy involved in golf apparently 🤔.

120 acres of paradise brother. Close to the best job I've ever had.

❤❤❤

@@bearpawtimber8739 pretty hole but where’s the fuckin swallows. lol. Guess I’m gonna have to go back & watch the good old days eh pal ❤️

I fuckin know what’s what my friend 💪❤️🙈

@@mikeyyoyo6464 I miss my tree swallows as well. I'm so grateful that I documented so many hours of my life in the forest. This golf course on the outskirts of town is 120 acres of wildlife paradise. I'm out there each day to watch the sunrise and mother nature wake up. I've got so many feathered friends along with a bunch of 4 legged critters. I'm out of there before too many 2 legged critters show up.

You most definitely get it. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

Yes sir. I was happy with the factory trigger spring.

@@bearpawtimber8739 good I have heard some people day the had misfire with the lite spring but sometimes there's more to it than just the spring.

I laughed out loud at this comment. Almost too funny to handle at my 3 am rise and shine.

Neither have I. If they don't all become some other aquatic critters lunch, I'll keep an eye on them and update. Thanks for the comment.

Good to see you're still out there buddy. Hope Scotland is hanging in there during these crazy times. Do you have catfish there? Found this school of baby fish today, and they had whiskers like catfish. Hopefully someone can confirm or deny my suspicion. Thanks for stopping in the comment section my fellow soldier of kindness 👊

@@bearpawtimber8739 naw mate we have salmon ,trout, mullet in rivers here , mackerel, pollock & lots of other species at sea, especially in deep waters there’s some crazy ugly fish, my mates go deep water fishing it’s not my idea of a good time lol, I’m a soldier of kindness alright but I don’t take handouts if you catch my drift , things have changed mate, I hope you understand what I’m saying? Anyway I fkn miss your old videos at the cabin but hey ho! Life goes on , all the best to you & yours my man 💪❤️👍

PS. It’s kinda hard to cope in the present global circumstances my friend it’s all gone apeshit🤷🏻‍♂️

@@mikeyyoyo6464 Yeah......to put it nicely......

@@mikeyyoyo6464 Absolutely brother.

We've got a couple of outdoor cats that make it pretty rough on them. Just had a hatch of quail as well. I will do my best to protect them.

@@bearpawtimber8739 They are cute little critters. I'm surprised those coi were trying to eat their feet.

@@MuskratOutdoors I dug that pond back in 05. I have allowed it to create it's own self sustained eco system. Haven't fed the fish in about 10 years. Everything is fair game for food. Hell, my bullfrog snagged a bathing bird and had it for lunch.

May cause dizziness😂 Thanks for noticing the 🇺🇸flag. I had just installed it and was the motivation for the video.

@@bearpawtimber8739 Dizzy Comes with the job, I'm an old Bullrider

Are tree swallows native to your area?. I have since moved further south, and all I see is barn swallows down here.

Put up some nest boxes. "If you build it they will come" LOL. Need to place them about 100 ft. apart, competition can get hectic. Also, compete with sparrows if a problem in your area. To keep those out place out in the open is better. Check Cornell University nest watch page for more info.

Yes sir. I tried to blow it out with my fireplace bellows, but way more simple to disconnect and carry inside.

The tractor control joystick controls up/down and rotate the chute. Pto switch controls the blower motor.

Just about as far North in Idaho before leaving the country. Thanks for stopping by my channel.

Finally, someone around here making a video about snow management. Although it doesn't look very wet compared to what get in the Athol area. How does it do in the N. Idaho wet sloppy snow? I am considering a Berco rear snowblower for my TYM T234.

Awesome that you have these wonderful memories. Bless your parents for teaching you this. Thanks for stopping by my channel.

My friend has since sold this tractor, so I have no way to find out what blower was on there. It sure did fling that snow though. Thanks for stopping by my channel and the positive comment. I will add Berco to the title and see what happens. I can't believe it's at 10k already. Thanks.

You're welcome. Thanks for stopping by my channel.

You are a man of much knowledge Mr. Gregor. I was a sophomore in high school the first year of manufacturing of the XR650l. Owning one has been a dream of mine since. The Big Red Pig is now a welcome part of the family. So much fun.

Even those plastic roof rakes scar the best of metal roof paint. Thanks for stopping by my channel.

I was washing the pickup, and walked away for a minute. There he was. Friendly little fella. Sure someone feeds him by the look of his belly, but he always comes running at the sound of free drinks. We call him squeakers.

Pack River road baby

@@bearpawtimber8739 You know it! Still own that?

😂

Gregor!!! Sure nice to see your name pop up here. I gave my mom a riding mower that I bartered for. I made a video of her trying it out and played around in the editing room. We all had a great laugh. Hope you are doing well my KZbin associate.

@@bearpawtimber8739 My pleasure.I've had some physcial challenges, nvr dmg. Changed my diet, started walking and noticing improve. Anything i can do for you guys,PLZ let me know. She gave me a big smile:)
