[@brownwarrior6867]

Nice upload as an ex Plant Operator in the British Army who has experience in servicing large voluminous equipment this brought back some fond memories of being elbow deep in various fluids while stuck down a Servicing Pit for sometimes days on end. I was much happier pulling levers than dropping fluids of course but ultimately the job satisfaction of completing a full service always made it worthwhile. Looking forward to seeing these beauties in action guys. More power to yer elbow as we say in these parts 💪🏼 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼 Ps We had Terex Equipment also so well used to the sound of a screaming Detroit Diesel first thing of a morning.

I absolutely love the painted nails Scott! Your entire family are truly amazing people, amazing dads. Memories with card board boxes, and probably other crates that become forts. You guys are amazing fathers, hard workers, incredibly talented, and so much fun to watch. Thank you for sharing your family with us. God Bless and I do pray that God shows you His True Grace during your harvest this year.

[@larrydavidson3402]

Kids and big boxes a great combination. Our kids had more fun with boxes than any of their toys. On another note, I can't imagine what it costs to change all the fluids and filters on those two combines!!!!!

[@larryeuteneier5877]

In regards to the oil drain There is a tool you can get to put on the engine we’re the plug goes that you can stop and start the oil drain process with out making a mess works great Seen it at our farm progress show that we have up here in Canada in Regina Saskatchewan Canada

[@NVMDSTEvil]

I made a tool for fixing the center feed drums without needing a torch. Just 2 circles cut from the side of a thick pipe and threaded center on one. Stick one inside and clamp them together through the drum finger hole to squish the dent out. Works awesome.

[@glenlaughlin6547]

Talk about a tool learning curve, for everyone. Nice job on the cardboard boxes. Our grandkids have tons of toys but will play with boxes also. I got my toe nails painted once & only once for them. One foot, purple for her & one green ,for him. They were impressed for 10 sec, maybe 15 sec.

[@thomaswooten2399]

Thanks guys for the content. I can no longer do physical labor, however I always enjoyed working with my hands and at the feeling at the end of the day of accomplishment. No matter how dirty, greasy, or covered in cow poop i was. Please keep it up. And may God bless your operation and family. The cardboard made me smile, reminded me of a Barbie I spent a couple of hours on before Santa Claus arrived in 1984. A glass of wine didn't hurt. I will always remember that year.

[@sandycurtparsons7375]

Thanks so much for sharing. My Dad's last combine before he retired was a 1986-1660 Case IH Combine. Great memories with my Dad during harvest. We lost my dad in 2019. He is missed greatly. The 1660 Case IH was the last machine I operated. That was probably around 2001. Combines have changed so much since then. Thanks again so much for sharing.

[@paxbonum4683]

Nick, the kids playing in the big boxes made me smile. My dad would bring hugh shipping boxes home for us to make forts. Great memories. Thank guys for being awesome husbands and daddy's. Blessings on the Welker Families. Peace!

[@stevenicoson6670]

Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable as always. Very nice toolboxes. Lots of storage for your tools. It is interesting how we collect so many tools to get the job done anymore. Good to reduce the number of toolbox’s you previously had. Nice drawer action and deep drawers. Really good to reorganize after some years I am sure. You all did good. Looks great. The combines. Wow and wow on the number of filters you need to change out everything. Just amazing now days. You spent a day just doing that. This new machinery is nice but wow what it takes to service them. Thanks for showing us the process. Was interesting. Then the headers. Lots of maintenance there also. I can see with your rocky ground. Leg arms doing a great job with the torch and hammer. Nice work. Saves a lot of replacement parts. Takes a lot of time to get ready for harvest. Who ever thought you were have to get oil in 55 gallon drums. Wow. Nick: absolutely super job with your children. You are a good dad. The empty tool shipping boxes turned into play houses for the kids. They were delighted!!!!!!! Super idea dad and mom. They love it!!!!!! You all have been super busy getting machines ready for harvest. Important to do that. Harvest is a busy time. Believe you said the peas are about ready to harvest. Prayers for a good crop production at harvest time. About it for now I guess. Enjoyable watching you all do what needs done with your tools and getting ready for harvest. Teamwork and the Welkers have it that is for sure. My compliments to each of you!!!!!! You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything. The Iowa farm boy. Steve. PS: nice construction job on the playhouses.

[@bobstratton6362]

You guys are great dads’. I love your channel. It’s amazing how people think farmers just drive around the field and make money. They have no concept of how much it cost just to do an oil change and all the filters.

Take some of your smaller toolboxes and put good casters on them and use them as tool carts. Just put the real basic stuff in them. You will be surprised how much time you save by having the box close behind you.

We farm in east central Alberta about the time of your video we drove past your area to Northern California. It’s amazing to see the how the crop conditions change in a days driving. We have what looks like one of our best crops and are about 7 hours north. I hope what missed the hail surprises you.

[@John-nc4bl]

Wonder if you ever cut the filters and open them, (the more important ones) stretch the accordioned media out and check for metallic contamination. Run a magnet across where the vee was in the pleats as that where most contaminant will be trapped and check for the bad stuff. Keep in mind that there may be non ferrous metallic particulates. Ya don't want to see any crud with part #s - -:) At oil changes on my Cessna engine, I check the engine filter for metal.

[@Ham68229]

Just a suggestion about the toolbox. Get a second one, set one as sockets and ratchets and the other for wrenches. If you plan on keeping the older boxes, use those for "specialty" tools. Looking forward to harvest time, hopefully, you'll get good solid yields. Cheers :)

[@tompinnef6331]

Nice work - not easy to service those 'monsters' of a combine. I have fond memories of the neighbor picking ear corn with a IH 2 row tractor mounted picker. Farmer James was what he wanted to be called. Sadly his house / farm is long gone. Only memories in my mind now. His acres are covered with houses along with my grandpa's place. Miss riding out with Grandpa and digging horse radish roots. Don't miss the grinding of it though. IF the wind changed when grinding it. You would start to tear up and sometimes cough. But loved eating it. Soon you'll be harvesting the crops not hailed on. Means winter will soon be upon us. Getting my 13 hp snow blower ready. The neighbors love coming home from work. Their driveways done and all they have to do is pull into their garage. The Mail person also likes me. LOL Hope the crew / family and you are doing well. Take care - be safe and God Bless.

[@douglasboyle6544]

if you're gonna use a cut down tote like that for the oil you could also fab some baffles from the cut off sides and top of the tote to go into to prevent massive sloshing as you move it around. Hey, and if LegArms wants to paint his nails fancy colors, that's cool too.

[@bradmeacham6982]

A toolbox drawer labeling idea... Buy some 1/2" wide by 15-yd long Roll-N-Cut Flexible Magnetic Tape (available at Amazon, amongst other places). It's magnetic on one side with a sticky back on the other side covered with a white tape. Cut it to consistent lengths of 3-4". However, leave the white sticky side cover in place. You can then write on the white side with a Sharpie, or print out 1/2" wide labels with a label maker and stick them to the white side. This gives you ultimate flexibility on labeling the drawer's contents. It also gives you the ability to change your drawer organization as needed by just moving the magnetic labels from drawer to drawer. You can also put multiple different labels on the same drawer. This system has worked well for me.

[@mathbrown9099]

You guys have the operation to harvest big crop! I hope God, who has blessed your fields with warm summer rains-and some hail, too, will bless and protect the kids and family with extra good things.

Not sure how chronological the scenes are, but Nick cuts boxes for the kids condo (great job Dad!) , and then shows up in the shop with a finger taped up. Ah, I remember so well the the cuts and bruises from being a Dad with little ones... dangerous business! LOL My Dad almost broke his collar bone climbing in a 65 year old Weeping Willow to haul a cable spools two sides up into the tree for two floors of our magnificent tree castle when I was 8. Brutal business having kids! Meanwhile Scott shows us his painted Daddy fingernails.. When I was in the Navy my daughter could only paint my toenails, but she made the most of it. Fond memories.

[@died4us590]

I had to laugh when you fellas were doing the unboxing in the beginning, because my first thought was Case IH tool box, and I was surprised at the same time. Nick, with your hair cut so short, you really look a lot like your dad, and he is so kind and humble. I wish your mother would take a shine to the camera, because it's rare to see her. G-d bless all you Welker's, and little Welker's.

On big bud leaking water, there is a compression tester to see if compression is getting in coolant, a tube with special fluid in, placed on top of radiator, fluid is blue,turns green when diesel exhaust is in rad, yellow on a gas burner. Would recommend testing, might have compression in radiator, causing it to blow

I have picked up some sticky sided magnetic tape and put labels on them. That way you can mix or move them until you decide a on a more permanent location. I have moved things from drawer to drawer after about a year or to getting the most common in a the best location.
