Oh course we need to see part 2. It's always fun and interesting to watch "pros" at work. Well, you're darn good at what you do. If I was 800 miles closer I would have gladly rented a sod cutter and removed that nice grass for you. I would guess it's about a thousand bucks worth around here. Time for breakfast. The wife now has to wait until the Sunday morning Neil show is over. :)

@sassafrasvalley1939 Жыл бұрын
Neil, we had a small steel grain bin on our dairy farm. We used it to store cattle feed. (Bulk feed cost less than bagged.) Our neighbor used an old clay block, silo type, bin for his hog feed. Back then, there were dozens of different types of bins used for a plethora of food storage needs… I don’t know if the relentless march of technology is more to blame… or, the government/ market forces affecting farming… but, now most of those bins and silos are idle…. Or gone. Our metal grain bin serves as a pad for the current family’s grill and picnic table. As you know, there is no profitability in small dairy farming. The neighbors clay block silo sits idle with a tree growing out of its top. It’s business model, small hog operation, is a thing of the past… the farmland now has a pay-to-fish lake and cabins on it. I think a guy can get a pretty good historical read on rural America by just looking at food storage methods. From old brush filled trench silos to the latest computer controlled spiderweb of bins… each one was built to fill a need or chase a dream. I find it fascinating that so much history is contained in the stories behind those methods. Thanks for telling this one. Please continue to enlighten us on the progress of this project’s place in history. PS: nice job of feathering that boom around those curves.

Hadn't thought about the read you can get from all the old different storage solutions of yesterday. When reading this I thought of all the old corn cribs around here. WE had one at Mom and Dad's and it didn't make for very good storage with the slatted-siding design. It was great for firewood storage though as it really helped to air dry the wood. Every year we filled that thing up with wood. The Amish are the only ones around here that still use that style of corn crib. We also had a grainery at Mom and Dad's that they would supposedly fill up with dry corn. I can't imagine scooping all that out of there. Matter of fact the big old red barn in the center of of our property is a grainery as well. It still has the elevator in it and the upstairs used to accommodate over 7000 bushels. Can't imagine parkin 7 semis overhead! You're right it certainly is fascinating. Might make another interesting component to the grain bin series! Thanks for the idea Dave!

Your finesse with the backhoe is incredible! Watching you pull the sod right along the radius of that curve. it can be difficult to achieve that when you take your time with a shovel but you're 15 feet away having to imagine what the opposite side of the bucket is doing back there. Great work.

I just bought a used bin last year, took it down last year, and reassembled it on the new pad on our farm this year. Luckily the crew I hired to do the work was able to do everything but store the bin over the winter. The bin was originally erected in 1979, and it looks to have had a low amount of grain through it really. 27' 8 ring Bougman bin with a 2 screw stirator for $3500. it was $35000 to move it without the electric. I still have the electric to deal with. Great work. Cheers.
