Leg Arms you and your family all inspire me! I’m 37 and have been a chef for 22 years and have been really unhappy. Honestly watching this channel I decided to pursue something I’ve been thinking about for years and that’s a career in welding. So I’m currently of January 2 of this year going back to school for welding and also working full time at my current job. But no gains are ever made without sacrifice. And I can honestly say you all were a huge push to do this. So thank you 🙏🏻 so very much! I appreciate y’all and keep up the great content! 👊💪

I removed seals by drilling holes in the seal and screwed sheet metal screws in the holes and prying on the screws to remove the seal , worked great. Love the videos

I drill a hole and used a concrete anchor welded to a slide hammer. Whack whack and it's out

[@andrewruble7706]

A day in the life of Legarms. What a way to spend a Saturday morning watching Scott work in the shop. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.

[@MaxCruise73]

Regarding the portion where a hole needs to be drilled into the old main seal. Dip the drill bit in grease, then drill. Grease can capture some of the chips. Helps minimize chips going into the engine. As for the big nut in the beginning of the episode, suspect a hydraulic wrench was used to achieve the desired torque setting. Something very few people are even aware of, let alone have access to. During the course of working a part time job, had to remove several 6-1/2" nuts. Used either a 1-1/2" or 2" impact. Used a crane to lift the impact. Required two large bore air hoses and two men to operate. VERY powerful tool.

Thank you Scott for mentioning a path, (how do others perceive us), that I have thought of often. I know I have not done enough but am trying. I have a habit of losing my temper when frustrated and out comes the🤬. Mother said it was because my vocabulary wasn’t good enough so That I could say something else and fortunately I married a woman that says the same thing. That is a part of my life I have projected that I’m not proud of but have worked all of my life to control it. I am seeing so many on the social media platforms that I wish I had not seen and especially our younger generation. I am very proud of you and Nick and the persona you put forth on your videos. Keep up the good work.

[@MidwestSirenProductions]

Scott’s work ethic is just unreal. Building his own tools, ripping things apart, and using raw manpower to get the job done is what we need in this world; especially on old equipment that was built to last many lifetimes!

[@ninus17]

seeing you trying to get that nut off reminded me of MN Millenial trying to get that oil filter off of his sprayer. also i am not a farmer, but i would split the tractor and replace the second bearing. because if you dont do it now, it will break and then you have to dissasemble the hinge again. and also you wont have to lie sleepless at night fearing when the bearing will break. personaly i think it will save you more problems in the future if you fix it now

[@Hamnut123]

I'd also add to this by saying get more than one bearing since you have another Big Bud that might also need attention in the future.(I'm not a farmer either)

[@kyleshores432]

@@Hamnut123 different series and different size buds though, so no guarantee that all 3 use the same size bearings....

[@kyleshores432]

yes and no, if either of the others uses the same size, then that's great, but if only the 600 uses that size, it could sit on a shelf collecting dust for 40 years....and depending on the price for the bearing....well, think that part of it explains itself if only the 600 uses that size....
