It’s A Long Way To The Top!!

[@patricke3000]

You should have a weather proof tool box installed on the platform at the top of the grain elevators so you never have to pull tools up and down every year.

Awesome job on the new tiling. Hope the new neighbor and you all can agree to clear the ditch and maybe, just maybe you can farm that land too. One thing, please invest in harnesses and hardhats when your climbing and on the ground. It takes one socket or wrench to hit someone from 100' to change there life.

[@basiljarbo8888]

Thank you, Chet and the crew for another great video. You guys are hilarious thrown firecrackers at Chet while coming down from the elevator. I was very funny.😃🙏🙏🙏

[@craigsteele8912]

We're milking cows down here in New Zealand on wet ground. Over a life time of running this property I've progressively tile drained all bar 100 acres, ( Novaflo we call the plastic pipe ). The improvement is basically immediate. Your worst ground becomes some of your best in months. Doing 'Gods work" is how my drainage contractor describes his results. He's right about that. Cheers guys. Great viewing as always. Cheers.

Think I mentioned last year, just get a water tight toolbox and bolt it up top, with grease gun, and all the tools you know you need. Then all you need to bring up is oil and grease

[@mfanwelikeit3760]

I agree with Dougo, time for a winch system for tools

[@johnmacdonald6220]

I agree I mentioned a similar recommendation last year. A winch or at least a block and tackle mounted to the upper deck. Someone also mentioned a toolbox with a lid. Then you would only need to have to transport the grease and or oil and the odd tool. Like the old saying work smarter not harder.

[@gragor11]

1:12 Rig Pigs, Derrick men to be specific use a counter weight on the other end of a cable that they clip to their harnesses that help with the chore of going up 100' to the top of the large triple drill rigs. Their counterweight runs up and down a guy wire. Your counter weight could perhaps run down and up a cable next to the outside of the ladder you climb. It also makes it easier to get back down again.

[@SteveNicoson-u1i]

Thanks for another great video Chet. It was super interesting and enjoyable to watch for sure. Thanks for explaining the tiling project on your farm. Wow, super big tiling project but for sure will fix the water problem on your piece of land. Big tiling machine that went deep. Really appreciate you explaining how the Tiling project is coming together and how it will work. In the state of Iowa you can check with the county courthouse and public records will say who owns the land. Don’t know if Minnesota is the same or not. Would be a way for you to find out who owns the land next to you. It is public information. I am a big believer in tiling. We had all of our land tiled and it payed us back ten fold over the years. Glad you are fixing it now. Nice project Chet!!!!!’ Doing the fireworks with someone up in the air probably was not the best idea. Sure wish you would invest in harness’s when high like that. Just being safe. Nice work on all of that equipment high up on the grain bin systems. Good work to get done before it gets cold. Nice project to have done now in nice weather. Guess about it for now. Thanks for everything. You all take care and be safe. The Iowa farm boy. Steve 😊😊👍✅🇺🇸🇺🇸

Looks like you headed off a problem bearing on the bin site, and toppr=ed up the g/box oil at top,,glad it was you not me (no head for heights). Tiling is a major project but well worth the initial costs. At least you will see the benefits in your lifetime, unlike some investments. Good call, hope they come back in the autumn to finish the work. Thanks for the update, that corn looks ... at best. From UK.

[@bradpogue3448]

Great job on the video. One thing I will say is. On the gearbox their is a breather on the gearbox so it doesn’t build up pressure. If that happens it will blow the seal out.

[@ryaneick8864]

Yall consider putting some sorta of water proof box up on the leg to store tools, grease etc. Might not have to do that bucket deal every time.

Proper Western Minnesota farm etiquette includes Bottle Rockets, Strategically shot by Both parties, Those on the ground shooting up, And those in the air shooting down. A successful summer is measured by both parties shooting at least $100 of bottle rockets at each other. Bear in mind, older generations have less tolerance for pyromaniac festivities, But any 50-65 year old living within proximity of the South Dakota state line will understand the necessity of bottle rocket warfare. 56 years old, raised on a farm south of Marshall Minnesota.

[@genefucarino702]

Why don’t you keep a lock box on the top ledge of the bin site - with some tools and a rope and a large bucket and a pulley or something This way you don’t always have to climb up them ladders carrying all that extra equipment Keep some older tools and stuff up there in a safe weather proof box. ((Just a little planning ))

[@madisonlynn1753]

Awesome video Chet and Larson Farms!!!

[@jacobrobinson175]

Remember not to pump so much grease in your pillow blocks that you blow out the bearing seals which so many persons do. And causing premature bearing failure caused by moisture and grit mixing w/ the grease so a 1/2" pillow block should take bout 4 pumps and a 2" will take about 8-10 pumps again not necessary to over grease. Doing so will cause the bearings to not spin and ware out faster I like any grease that's not a dark color so you can see any silvery or metal color in the grease. Food for thought, we went through a whole chapter on bearing care while I was going to tech school for industrial maintenance tech certification.

[@johnunsicker7440]

You have two ways to tile do the low spots or pattern tile. Low spot you plow a tile into the low spot and put a riser on it to get the surface water away after rains. With pattern tile you are putting in tile like every 40 to 100 feet throughout the whole field. All depends on the soil and how wet it is. The pattern tile will remove the extra moisture from the soil and help when you get a rain. The rain will be able to soak into the dryer dirt then go to the tile and leave the field. I know it sounds strange but if the soil is to wet it can hurt the crop yields. So, in some area they will pattern tile to get a more even yield over the field. After the tile been installed you can see increase in yields the next year. Some have seen 50 to 100 bushels increase in spots just from field tile. Dirt perfect and A few points from perfect actually talks more about it and the farmer actually shows the increase in the yields. This is just a little more information.

[@richardmoore2590]

@@johnunsicker7440 thank you so much. I’m not a farmer ( as you can probably tell) but I love Larson farms and I hear that term so often. Now I’ll understand it better. Appreciate the info my friend.

[@lynwessel2471]

​@@richardmoore2590For healthy crops, you need dirt to be approximately 50% soil, 25% water, 25% air. Excess water drives the air out of the soil. Tile removes the excess water.

Chet, that land purchase is public record. The county clerk’s office can tell you who just bought it. Where I am they post land sales and purchases in the local newspapers. There’s no mystery about it. Have you seen the tile plow that Dirt Perfect built for the back of his JD 850J dozer? He does dry dams with “field carrots”that gets planted over. No flags to move. Pretty cool setup

[@robo1210]

Once the deal is officially done, then yes it’s public record. But not until it’s officially closed. Dirt perfect’s tile plow is the homemade version of what larsons have. And the riser pipes or carrots as you call them will still have to be pulled or farmed around. No different than their flags they pull.
