Broken Rake!

[@jamesrussell7488]

I really appreciate all that you and your family does, i know it's not an easy life with the weather changes and all the mishaps that occurs, but i'm glad you guys are keeping the farming traditions alive.

[@jamesthorson7025]

I loved how every time you would start to talk Travis would yous the impact it was to funny.

[@sergiosanchez2883]

kek same

[@michiganfarming1955]

That cracked me up! Lol

[@onelonleyfarmer]

i had one of these rakes!! it was a pain in the ass!! i love the ones i use now.

[@HowFarmsWork]

+onelonleyfarmer It works great when it's working great. We'll be trading up!

[@onelonleyfarmer]

i agree it works great when it works

[@Northern_Farmer]

It looks similar to our sitrex rake that our deer dealer sells... cept for that square tube in the middle. Little bit different hitch set up.

[@brakemancountry6110]

Our rake went up in flames, it was one of the best rakes we had in a long time

[@EezeeListen]

Being a naive person, I immediately thought you were going to video about a broken garden rake!! I'm 60 last week, guess I'll grow up soon! :))

[@jackiejohnson6064]

You can tell you are brothers for sure . You guys remind me of my brothers.

[@hoophil]

I can't believe you broke the rake! Lucky you have Travis to fix your broken stuff! I'm to far away to help. LOL

[@MatthewHoag77]

Travis's impact wrench blasts at the beginning are almost like "What?" chants from pro wrestling. The headline entertainer is always getting interrupted.

[@georgiaswampman4542]

You are very fortunate that your brother works with you on the farm. I have 2 brothers and they don't help ....any, nadda thing.

[@acrousonelos]

When you were breaking the rake, I almost tipped the brand new zero turn mower over...trying to mow around the culvert!!!

[@JimsEquipmentShed]

Love the sound deadening carpet in the tractor. ;-)

[@CJPhillips6648]

If your going to get a bigger tractor, and add more acreage, you should look at the 8400, or even the 9200 series.

[@mathman1923]

typical brother. my brother used to always break stuff for me to fix :)

[@bsauve2669]

Hopefully Travis's welding is better than Ryan's driving....lol. Just kidding keep doing what y'all do

[@willzealand]

I see how this farm works Ryan breaks it Travis fixes is

[@HowFarmsWork]

+will zealand refer to "Broken feeder" a couple weeks ago! Haha

[@willzealand]

:)

[@leoringler4671]

Was that a 4020

[@ninus17]

LOL i looked away when he was weelding :)

[@HowFarmsWork]

+the silent farmer Hahaha its second nature

[@timwendt2999]

you just look in there once in your life :D youll regret it the next day

[@ninus17]

haha

[@vetterfellow]

No sense in taking chances, I closed my eyes. I was taught that a long time ago.

[@ninus17]

:)

[@Ivansgarage]

Tell us the truth, you were messing with Jamie and drove the tractor into the ditch.

[@lukestrawwalker]

You tore it up... that's why we can't have nice things! LOL:) Seriously, not too bad, could have been worse. They make those rakes with the joining plates deliberately thin to give way when they hit an obstruction. Personally I'd prefer they made the plate beefy enough to handle the stress and have the bolts shear off clean if it hits something rather than bend stuff to heck and back, but that's just me. At least you didn't turn it into a pretzel like OLF's wheel rake a few years ago. Later! OL J R :)

[@hicktownpa1233]

Time for a new rake ?

[@jerrodpollei1591]

Where are u guys located. I must be really close to you guys. What is the towns name

[@jerrodpollei1591]

+Jamie Procarione is that anywhere near Sauk city

[@jerrodpollei1591]

+Jamie Procarione ok. I work at mid-state and I recognize some of those tractors

[@Cyclon32289]

Don't you buy new equipment when you broke one in America? lol greets from Argentina.

[@rambor3156]

I’m here for Jamie she looks so cool this dude is lucky

[@waterskiingfool]

Nice of your brother to fix your screw up

[@joetiller1031]

Get you a rake like onelonleyfarmer 's got if it will hold up under him its a good one.

[@masher7774]

Hi Ryan, I am curious on what resolution you record on your GoPro, thanks

[@HowFarmsWork]

Always 1080

[@2510jd]

what the heck.. your farm located in down town Chicago? lol.. weird to hear sirens in the country... you should let Jamie rake next time... I bet she won't breakdown. lol

[@tjb4030]

Jaime [what you think about being reffered to as an it ]?? lol bet its not for long lol

[@deerchaser7395]

Where is Jamie at in the new videos?

[@DesertDigger1]

Good job!....Wes.

[@1968dodger2419]

Ryan when you tying to knot?

[@peterdusenbury1661]

Jamie never do not say never and why not LoL

[@kevinwillis9126]

didn't Wes and Tim do the air wrench joke....

[@roberthealy2331]

yup

[@devontrayer3061]

I know how you feel we used the older rakes and we had a hole row of teeth snap off in 1 day

[@michaelcarley7016]

Be careful around ditches and bridges a neighbor driving a IH 806 got too close to a 20ft ditch and it rolled on top of him, slow down when near these potential accident sites

[@shanethrasher1027]

i got an IH 806 just got it yesterday

[@timothymcmurtrie5277]

Sometimes ya gotta use the ole blue-tip wrench.....lol. been there many times

[@kingmansfinest8895]

Pouring water on a fresh weld defeats the purpose of trying to make a weld strong

[@byronmill]

You have no idea what you are talking about. They were welding plain mild steel and there was substantial cooling time between the weld and the water application. Even if they had done it immediately it would not have affected the weld. There is no hardness or tempering issues to deal with when welding mild steel. The water was applied to make sure there were no smoldering embers of dry grass/hay or grease.

[@kingmansfinest8895]

+byronmill who told you that's mild steel ? Don't make assumptions.

[@byronmill]

A lifetime of experience has told me that. I have spent endless hours, repairing, building and designing equipment, especially farm equipment. Those parts are mild steel. The vast majority of the steel used to fabricate machinery like this is mild steel. Only in high stress areas or bearing surfaces are more expensive steels used.

[@kingmansfinest8895]

+byronmill as have I unless you have went and tested the metal don't make assumptions bud

[@byronmill]

But it is fine for you to assume that it is not mild steel, even though that IS the standard for all of these types of fabrications. A simple grinder spark test would prove that. You will never get anything done on a farm with your methods. Good luck, buddy!

[@eoinoreillyagrivideos5435]

Good song playin in the background outskirts of heavan😇

[@srvafool]

You still have 3 or 4 mishaps to catch Travis. :-)

[@LilPickleyt999]

911 wat's your emergency

[@ivanvrieselaar6475]

my older bro would do the same thing... make me look like an idiot for breaking it and then help dad and I fix it

[@richardmiller3919]

Hope you already know to fix (your comment as 3 years ago)

[@robandlauriecoble5566]

Your machine shop looks a lot like Onelonelyfarmer

[@ThePilotPenguin1]

i'd say you got the best woman in your area. in my area. the girls here have what we call "the country beauty" which is...... lest just say bad for now

[@lukestrawwalker]

True... gotta search long and hard for a good one... I dated a lot of girls with "princess syndrome" as I called it, or "23 going on 14"... still thought they were a princess and would grow up to live in a mansion, drive a fancy car, have everything they ever wanted, and live happily ever after. Real life doesn't work like that most of the time, especially on the farm. Finally found a GOOD woman and glad I did... life would have been miserable with one of the "princesses"... Had to explain being a "harvest time widow" to my nephew's girlfriend a few years ago... she thought she was being neglected because he was in the field or driving truck a lot. I explained to her "when it's time to farm, it's time to farm, work has to come first" and that includes planting time and harvest time, getting ready to plant as well, and maybe crunch times here and there throughout the year. Plus, in their case, deer season LOL:) Just goes with the territory with a farmer. They'll make it up to you when the work is done and the crunch is over... She got it; they married this past summer... Later! OL J R :)

[@MrEst1953]

No Safety gear , wish up , to late when it happens.

[@codyoldendorf4636]

Sounds like me and my brother

[@sojutime]

Is farm equipment always painted boring red or green?

[@andrewmicas4327]

In the Uk we like the red so that we can find the parts when they break and drop off.

[@lukestrawwalker]

Nope, several shades of orange, silver, blue, black, cream, and various other shades of green as well as red. Bout the only color that isn't regularly used is purple and pink... LOL:) Later! OL J R :)

[@steveriley2472]

ANDREW MICAS run green then your parts won't break and fall off. Lol

[@desertfarmer4595]

nice video

[@jakubdrwal8636]

You need to up the video quality, I noticed the videos with higher quality get more views on your channel.

[@HowFarmsWork]

+Jakub Drwal How Farms Work is a blog, so video quality varies by upload.

[@collintracy7694]

Sound like you guys need a new rake! Get a Kuhn!!!!!

[@mattherbert104]

Na krone

[@RodHays]

Couldn't you save lots of money on seeds but saving from from the corn you grow?

[@HowFarmsWork]

+Rod Hays We could if we grew conventional seed. What we use is patented and can't be replanted.

[@ArnieD17]

Today's corn are hybrids. You just don't know what you are going to get if you save seed. More importantly you stand a chance of getting your butt sued off by the seed company.

[@RodHays]

Thanks for the reply,looks as though the genetically engineered seeds have more net profit than conventional seeds and you don't have to save any seeds. The Amish save there seeds from year to year around here.

[@lukestrawwalker]

Open pollinated versus hybrid... google it... :) OL J R :)

[@myrodeofarmlife3317]

Rip rake

[@StephenMortimer]

2:14 MissJamie get a dang rubber band (or twist of baling wire) for da hair !!

[@StephenMortimer]

Jamie Procarione Psssst... ya LET the HAIR DOWN only on Friday nites (and get 'er back up for Sunday)

[@MrDyson01]

Jamie Procarione does it just look better that way?

[@lukestrawwalker]

Looks nice, don't see how it doesn't drive you crazy, but if you like wearing it that way, more power to ya... Just one word of warning-- around MACHINERY, be sure you put it up/back and keep it away from anything that might catch it, especially rotating parts... being scalped is no fun. Just not worth the risk-- tie it back, put it up under a hat (which is a good idea anyway for UV exposure/skin cancer risk later in life...) Safety first and be careful! Later! OL J R :)

[@bikerchic7938]

Teach Jaime to weld

[@lukestrawwalker]

Seriously... women are usually better welders-- steadier hands... At least that's what we were told in our HS welding courses... Later! OL J R :)
