Ben thank you so much. For me it was the mid 1960's and my dad came home with a scroll saw such as the one you got along with a wood lathe and more. His fellow co worker had gone through a divorce and needed a place for his shop equipment and we were allowed to use them. When I saw your boys using the saw It brought me to tears with such wonderful memories. Lost my dad in 2015 and his working with us taught us so much. Blessings to you and your family and remember your time with the kids makes lifelong memories. My mom's last words to me in Palm Desert California was to keep making memories. I do so now here in Ohio with the grandkids following mom's directions. Thanks Ben for being you and doing all you do for family. Again Blessings, Harold

Watching Ben and the boys in the machine shop is like watching kids in a toy store..😀.....I would love to see more of your non-farming "stuff" including Meg in the kitchen please.

Good lesson for your kids. Old tools can be cleaned, some small repairs, and work another day! Meg is quite the cooker/baker...so imaginative. Plain leftovers becomes a feast! Meg, love your soap! Hope the old farmhouse will become your soap factory! LOL

We have inherited similar old but reliable equipment and would love to know the steps and materials you used to bring these back to life correctly! Love your resourcefulness and appreciate your many skills which are now being passed down to the ever-growing and maturing offspring. What a blessing!!

[@theresad6990]

Same here! My Dad left behind several old hearty tools like this and I'd love to kow how best to tune up and take care of them for future use. My brothers don't see the value in them but I sure do!

[@waddeym]

There are many different ways to restore cast tools. I chose abrasive pads and wetting the surface with wd 40

[@missliz5039]

Looks like you need two water feeders for those baby chicks sure swarming, 😆 lol. You work hard with your farm and family lifestyle. Safety guards and shields for the boys and machinery will help them. They're so lucky to have you to teach them so many trades! I use to follow my dad around outside and in his garage. Helping him do so many wood projects. Best memories ever ❤ Blessings ahead!

[@CreatorInTrng]

ShopSmith. My Dad had a ShopSmith in his basement workshop. An absolutely fascinating machine. I learned how to use the lathe feature when I was quite young and made my own chess pieces (probably in some box somewhere...) Unfortunately, I was not in a position to take it over when he retired and downsized. But, fortunately, a very good friend of mine was and bought it from him and that was well over 40 years ago. We're both retired now and his son has it now in his home workshop. Maintenance has been done, but the motor on that thing is still going strong. It's bittersweet (mostly sweet) to know and occasionally see that old workhorse continue to serve. This seems to validate the statement - they just don't make them like they used to.

[@trinapellegrino621]

That’s wonderful 🥰

We would love a personal tour! Next time you go see if Cowboy will let you film some of your great finds. As a little girl, my mom worked in a department store in San Francisco and my Saturdays were spent with my Dad and the auto shop or the hardware store. Still a favorite pastime til this day.

we bought our Craftsman table saw in 1979 to build a house after ours burned down in Washington. it spent 40 years in Ramona, Ca with us bulding many things. Now, it lives in Idaho with us with a growing list of items to build on our new Homesteader!!! strong as ever.

[@CapnBrindolyn]

I cannot tell you how happy I was for you when I saw your treasures! Can't wait to see all the magnificent creations you make. It is always wonderful to see how involved you sons are with your work & projects. Look forward to the transformation of that table saw, too.

[@donnaspear8311]

I know you're too young to understand this, but you're a super, super great dad to those boys. Just letting them be with you, and help you will be wonderful memories down the road. I love that you let the oldest use the machine too. He's going to have great skills sets by the time he's 18.

[@juleswins3]

Love that anvil you have by the door. It looks just like my dad’s. He was a horseshoer and also a pretty fair straight up blacksmith when it came to doing iron work. His anvil had a hole in the middle of the bottom so that a stob could be left on a stump and the anvil dropped down onto the stob to hold it in place. It was given to my dad when it was about 25 years old and he had it nearly 50 years. My older brother, also a horseshoer and pretty fair blacksmith, has it now and it’s still in use after 75 years.

[@tommielourogers4327]

What a legacy that anvil has.

[@patriciaherman6499]

[@kimberlykelly7280]

That’s so cool you could bring that back to life!! Great skills for your sons and daughter too some day. Consider wearing an N95 mask when around a lot of sawdust and stuff like that. Wonder what will be made with that saw. You must share.

[@deborahandrews9728]

Hey, I caught the video from the Fit Farmer and something you said caught my attention. So, I just have to share what I learned from the old timers here in my town. Use lime, either powdered or pelleted, to kill that odor around your farm animals. It works so well and is a cheap fix for a smelly problem. Have a terrific day!

[@tommielourogers4327]

Just be aware that the lime will change the ph of your soil, so if you plan to later plant in the area that they animals are now preparing, you will need to get a soil test done and make sure that the lime will take you in the direction that you want to go in.

[@deborahandrews9728]

@@tommielourogers4327 I do know that, but this is just for where the critters are running and to keep the smell down. Here, we use lime to change the ph of soil around the oak trees, if we want grass and not sand. Thanks for the advice…🙂. Have a great evening.

[@TXNLaurenMcN]

Not only was it great to see you had a new upload, the content was wonderful! You reminded me of how much fun it always was to find and recondition old sewing machines, from treadle machines to much newer ones. Like you, my mom started me down an evolving road when she taught me how to sew. First lesson was how to maintain and adjust the machine. That led to working on VWs and that led to computer building, rebuilding, and Windows to Linux conversions. It was such a joy to watch you give that old saw all the TLC it had missed out on for decades! ~ In other news, thanks for the tip with uneaten oatmeal! I've often made extra grits in order to chill and fry slices up later; never thought of doing it with oatmeal. ~ Buggie is growing like a reed and is even more gorgeous than her older brothers... who are no slouches!

Making polenta out of oatmeal 💕 Also I have an old contractor's table saw that looks similar but have the nut that holds the blade in. I made veneer on that thing when it was working. Nice seeing someone who understands machinery, the old stuff was built to last, you'll never find a piece that good that is modern.

[@juliebaker6969]

Yeah, that's the problem with the modern stuff, planned obsolescence. You can't sell them another one unless this one wears out. In the last 7 years we've had 3 microwaves, 4 toasters, 2 toaster ovens, 4 coffee pots, 2 soda streams, and 4 crockpots. But we're STILL using my mother-in-law's 60+ year old roaster that they got as a wedding gift. To be fair though, the soda stream didn't self destruct, they just changed the bottles and CO2 tanks so that the new ones no longer FIT the old model.

When I turned 82 I gave my jigsaw, chop saw, and drill press to my daughter and her husband. He was trying to become a carpenter. So I had him clean out my garage. I still have a Craftsman table saw and a Harbor Freight Lath. He will inherit them when I die. We old guys hold on to the tools as long as we can. You found some good tools on that trip. The old jigsaw cleaned up real good. I am sure the table saw will clean up well also. I hope the motor is in good shape. Missing a belt is an indication of maybe a bad one. A good rebuilt one should be easy to find.

Speaking of fried eggs... My pregnancy self has not been liking them as much (so I haven't been eating them as much despite knowing I could use the protein) and I usually fry them in butter. Then it occurred to me that I could fry them in schmaltz instead, and it was sooooooo good. Butter is good, but I have to say that I prefer chicken eggs fried in chicken fat. It was beautiful.

[@dakotawinds9291]

I can rarely eat fried eggs, my go to is poached or sunny side up if not hard boiled. Can not stand any egg fried in animal fat, can not stand the brown crispy stuff they get fried in animal fat (bacon grease, sausage grease etc.).

[@jessicah2345]

@@dakotawinds9291 I don't like the hard brown crispy stuff either so I still fry in butter etc but I add a little water around them too and cover the skillet before turning them and the steam keeps them from getting the plasticky bits!

Get an adjustable belt for the table saw. It's a huge difference over a solid belt. I have an old Craftsman and the motor used to shake horribly until I switched to an adjustable belt. Also, when restoring that bad boy, vinegar is your friend for removing rust. Can't wait to see it once you're finished.

[@pammccrary1602]

When I was born Dad had bought a piece of land and was building a barn on it. He had bought a lot of his tools and saws. He also worked on cars, trucks, tractors and did body work and painting on the side as well. He worked in a rubber factory so he was busy mom worked in a candy factory! He started our home and finished the basement for us to move into. I was around 2 by then but his tools were used to build that home and helpy grandparents build their home. Then we moved to MN on a Dairy farm and had a huge beautiful home but the kitchen He worked on to remodel I learned by 8 to use a lot of them to help him. His table saw is 67 yes. Old now but solid steel and heavy I still love to do wood working! Now my son is remodeling his home but hope when the time comes he will keep dad's saw at least! That saw has helped build and remodel so much even remodeling my home I sold as well. I wanted a scroll saw most of my life but had to do with a jigsaw my son now has. But I still have my drills and saws. The smell of oil and wood is unmatched! I also learned to work on most all there is to engines, transmissions, tractors, small and huge desil engines and all the welding needed to run a farm. Yes a girl can do the same as boys, but we weren't met to do so I'm pretty broken down now but that smell of wood! By the way my son is him incarnated he workes full time 4 days, farms and has a Logging business as well so what I passed on to him he is teaching my Grandsons. And my Daughter she learned as well and my Grandkids are learning too!
