Good job Tim & Christy! You are always welcome here!

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Thanks for hosting us! We had a wonderful experience! Would love to revisit that restaurant!

[@zfilmmaker]

Nice video... it’s amazing to see this actually! If you go back to early 2017 videos I told Tim about Maschio and Tim responded, “never heard of them, where are they from”. I’m a huge fan of Maschio and own several implements of theirs, a Bufalo 300, Gemella 620, G tiller 350 and an Admiral disc. The Maschio folks know me well. Their products are just built so well. Their quality and performance supersede anything made in the USA...sadly.

[@philsmock4943]

I did not realize Maschio makes such huge pieces of equipment. Wow. Thanks for taking us on your tour.

[@jean-philippegagnon9189]

Nice video! Did you know that the Frontier rototiller is made by Maschio? That's probably why it's so efficient. Good day!

[@charlesrose7212]

Great tour - great video! Thanks!

[@akbychoice]

Cool seeing the processes. Driving commercially for over 25 years I was fortunate to see many different pieces of equipment that many would never dream existed. Attention to details and doing it all in house is nice.

[@RCPSU4]

This is truthfully impressive to see them actually making the implement in house. Goes to show how much they stand behind their products.

[@mannyportelli2114]

Great video team. Nice to see manufacturing of machinery. Manny

[@Kcolby47]

What a place! I always enjoy seeing how things are made and you folks did a great job of “show and tell” along the way. Thanks for sharing. Blessings.

[@mikegraziano1562]

WOW! Now you guys are international, congrats! Really enjoyed your ver. of "How it's Made" & watched it 2x's and even paused it with the space bar several times as there was so much info to take in!

[@acdii]

There was a time when American factories did everything in house just like this factory does, heck Ford used to even produce all the steel used in their vehicles they built. On those parts they were heating and bending, they do that to not lose the temper of the steel. That is why they check the color constantly. If they cold pressed it, the steel would fracture, so heating it allows the steel to bend, and by no over or under heating it, helps maintain its temper. Pretty cool they do it all in house too. The one stamping machine was putting a blade edge on, which is faster than trying to grind an edge, and less wasteful. Cool tour.

[@madtater5948]

thanks Tim and Chrissy for taking us along on your vacation. that was quite the tour of the factory.. keep up the great videos. would love to see you visit a tractor dealership to see what they're using across the pond

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Hey, we visited a Deere dealer in Germany a couple of years ago. Fascinating. Search 2036r …that is the model number specific to Europe.

[@321DLCR]

Great video!

[@MyClutteredGarage]

I always love a factory tour. Great job Tim and Christy (and Katriel)!

[@lloydbaker7099]

As always enjoyed the content

[@Totalyrediclous998]

Tim you absolutely need the folding flail mower. It's a must for the back field.

[@SudheendraKaranam]

Good people always end up meeting good people

[@cashlance4863]

BIG TILLER!!!

[@johanbos160]

Nice video tim and kristie and a great tour 👌👌

[@ranger5721]

i like it to see where they are made very nice set up and i have been looking into a flail mower

[@BG-vq9fd]

Good tour. The heated and formed pieces are more likely forgings.

[@Freecan67]

I love the new change. As you read the Scripture. God Bless

[@patrickmchugh4894]

Well did you get a cheese burger over there!!!! Lol great video!!!!

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Yes!

[@patrickmchugh4894]

@@TractorTimewithTim good deal!!!

[@robsmith7681]

That’s a real nice looking place. Are they hiring? 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@TallTexasGMan]

Now you need to go see Titan Attachments and show us their factories. This way we can see the differences in quality. 😁

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Right!

[@garymeyer3294]

That's Titan Attachments made in China. Not to be confused with Titan Implements made in Tennessee.

[@garyh2023]

Do you know if the small offset flail mower like you have is made there? The reason I am asking is that I was told by someone that the small ones were made in China. I am curious if this is true or not and thanks for the great video!

[@TractorTimewithTim]

My understanding is that the smallest ones are made in a Maschio owned plant in China.

Why did you apologize for wearing a safety mask? Anyone refusing to wear one, is simply selfish, and cares nothing for others' health.

[@ritterjon]

💥 What a wonderful tour! I’m amazed at how everything seems to be made in house. Sure is some quality equipment! *Keep on tractoring!* 👍

[@michaelmactavish1728]

that would put in a garden in no time in a back yard lol

[@HuserHelpers]

Hi Tim and Christy, if you all ever want to go on a Caterpillar tour, give me a yell. I know it is outside of your channel's content scope, but I think you would enjoy it. Take Care, Jason

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Would love it!

[@jaytomson7052]

Wow! What is holding Italy back?

[@GPOutdoors]

Thanks for the tour Tim! Enjoy the pizza!

[@turdferguson5300]

This was an interesting tour. Did you ever think when you started this channel you'd be in Italy someday. The cap part reminded me of a brain fart we had years ago. Our company was called to bid a job at Komatsu America Corporation. Little did I know Japanese companies require wearing caps, not hardhats just ballcaps. We show up without caps so they offered us some, thinking they were just being nice we put em in the truck... We didn't get the job. lol

[@timraber6575]

Manufacturing processes are always fastening. I spent 20 years plus making large steel truck wheels. Watching the forming, bending and being involved with quality control made me feel connected to the products we made. I still will inspect truck wheels for where and when it was made. I sometime think that I probably touched the wheels back many moons ago. Thanks for taking us along.

[@GrampysTractor]

I think that their flail mowers are terrific. I wonder how Johnny would do running through some corn stubble with one.

[@lifeinmotionoutdoorchannel]

Loving your channel more and more! Great work!

[@tomoaktree4951]

Hi Tim and Christy, Great tour. The Maschio equipment line looks really awesome! A 400HP tiller, now that's a machine!

[@justinkarst2012]

My John Deere 655 tiller says it was made in Italy, was wondering if Maschio made it for them? I purchased it around 2014.

[@photocontrol]

Neat tour of the Maschio factory!

[@BradMyers]

Very interesting video. It is neat to see how things are built and the amount of effort it takes.

[@terryhelms1578]

Two things I come away wondering, how many horse power tractor to operate that giant mower? And did you find a great cheese burger while there?

[@umberto64100]

You should go to looking for Bonetti truck now that you are in Italy. I'm Italian and I see you on KZbin.

[@bobpurs]

Very interesting video Tim and Christy. Amazing everything is made in house. Never seen a tiller that big. 👍

[@richardstevens3461]

Yes see Venice before it becomes Atlantis

[@steventhomson2042]

Very interesting. Thank you for showing us around.

ITALIAN JOB.

[@Breakinlife007]

I had no idea about this company but the idea of using one of these units in my field has me hunting for a dealer. Thanks Tim! Also I think I'm pretty close to your farm in Illinois?

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Cool.

That is very kind! Thanks!

[@anndibella4869]

They are not tines they are blades times are legs that Scratch the ground I live on a farm

[@TractorTimewithTim]

I don’t care if you live in a tree. Tillers have tines.

[@michigantler5046]

chow italia

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

My guess is that the bat wing tiller is a bit to big to fit my BX23S. I wonder how may HP it takes just to till air with it? Thanks Tum & Kristy… you just took one of my dream tours!

[@MannistoCay]

That's a pretty cool tool tour! Impressive factory. Looks warmer there too! 🌴☕️

[@FelipeColby]

Very cool. Why did the image look different on this video? It seemed like a nicer camera or something?

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Hmm. Now we feel bad :-(. This was shot by someone more professional than us...a Maschio employee. It is 1080p rather than 4k, but he did a great job with shallow depth of field, etc. Shows the difference between professionals...and...well...us!

[@FelipeColby]

@@TractorTimewithTim Professionals you certainly are in my book! All the detail in the cuts, shots, dubbing, subtitles, lighting...and the mics/audio!...it shows to anyone paying even half attention. This video was just...different. You get used to one look, and when it is different, it just stands out I think.

[@johniac7078]

Very cool.

[@mymorristribe]

meh, I'm sure turbo Johnny can handle that tiller. :)

[@Fehal94]

Maschio build some high quality attachments ! For everybody wo is interested to see how they test the powerharrows there ist ja Video from the German Brand Amazone. Just type in „ Amazone test“ and you see what happens if you hit a rock with powerharrow and 300hp in front of it. Ich hope you endjoyed your vacation in Italy ☺️ Greetings from Germany

[@jddriver9565]

You love factory tours?We love factory tours too! that was great, thanks Tim and Christy!:)

I didn’t know Italy had an industry left to be honest. Good for them.

That tiller is something else...lol I'll take two.

[@d.a.ballou9740]

That was interesting. Glad you had a good time!

[@nutsandbolts432]

Would it be possible to see some of the countryside and interview some smaller farmers to see what and why they plant what they do, and learn if they do anything differently than what we do? Possibly sample some local restaurants, interviewing chefs on the importance of local and fresh foods they prepare?

[@TractorTimewithTim]

That would have been great!

[@bbcobra04]

Wow, thats a biggun!!!!

[@Thecowboy1950]

Little big for Johnny

[@blessed7fold]

Tim I can't believe you went all the way to Italy to make this video. I can't thank you enough for this! I have been dreaming of the day I could see a factory tour of Maschio and how they make flail mowers. At this point I think you have topped every single other channel out there on KZbin covering tractors and equipment. I was already a subscriber of your channel but now I am fan! My hats off to you man, you're doing what no other content creator in this space has dared to do. Keep up the good work! I want to add in that I believe this is the very first video of it's kind. You have made the very first video of a factory tour of a flail mower and implement manufacture and uploaded it to KZbin.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Thank you for the kind words.

[@kylerayk]

Safety Sam here...interesting how the "progressive" european countries don't require the draconian safety measures that we have in the U.S. like safety glasses. I still love metal forming and fabricating!

[@1001ewaste]

There is a mix of PPE being used from what I noticed although it's not the blanket everyone wearing identical PPE including hard hats and goggles etc. Draconian safety measures often arrive from litigation and subsequent costs incurred. If your employees don't need to sue you for every little accident to cover medical costs and loss of earnings things don't need to be as 'draconian'. You'll obviously be aware of how comparatively unionised European manufacturing is, often with works councils have representation on the board.

[@tomkeating65]

Did you ever think that your channel would include going to far away places in the interests of Johnny? KZbin thinks highly of your channel when you put in 1025r for search. Your the best 👌 channel for this site. Keep up the great work. 🙂🙃🙂

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Thanks for the kind words. We had no idea.

[@TimBinns68]

Do you have a recommendation of a US dealer for the 7-8' Maschio flail mowers. I've been unable to find them in the US.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Yes. CHE in Ohio is big Maschio dealer. There is a good one in Illinois as well. Check Maschio website.
