I grew up absolutely loving tractors. John Deere especially. My grandfather had an older 5 series John Deere tractor from like the late 90s. Beautiful tractor. Yours is very similar to his. Had the roof and front loader aswell. He owned a mobile home park for college students and that's what it was used for mainly, aswell as planting hunting fields. He has since passed and park has been sold. That series tractor holds a special place in my heart

[@BillTheTractorMan]

Jobs around the farm & ranch like these are so satisfying. Watching the progress and seeing the end result leaves a good feeling of pride.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Amen to that one Bill

[@TheBastyPastyShow]

Hello Bill The Tractor Man I am chief The Tiny House Man. I need help getting pulled up the road can you help?

[@ctdmowing]

I love your attitude and all of your enthusiasm and energy. Keep up the great work God bless

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Thanks so much!

[@sal_e._mander5151]

The view of the tractor working and driving in to the sunset is a pretty romantic view of farming!

[@joolwing]

Really? I'm blown away at the video quality, the music, the epic drone footage and narratives while actually getting work done on top of it. I don't know how you do it but I can see why you have the following you do! I am here to stay bro! Yep!!

[@henryrodgers3409]

What a great video. I just love it when a land owner has pride in how his property looks . Many country folks just ply up their garbage and their property looks like a junk yard . Perfect music for this video and the camera shots were great . When you had the flat tire I figured the video was over but no you took the time and effort to show us how to fix a flat with a plug . Again ,Great video Sir and thanks . About cutting the plug . I was thinking is he going to cut off the extra . LOL

[@Sean_Hartley]

You have a beautiful farm sir. Thanks for sharing all the highs and lows of your projects. The variety is awesome!

[@Stomby85]

Haha! Love the bloopers man! That’s how attaching/unattaching to the 3 point really is! Keep up the hard work. Place is looking great!

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Always a struggle behind the scenes...fun to show at the end...instead of just wasting that gold! Wooooooo!!!

[@ronniepate4315]

Josh , you have a heck of a good start on making your farm look beautiful.The way you are going at it. It's going to be a farm other folks and myself will admire.

[@darylcampbell3244]

Tractor work is very satisfying! The farm is looking good.

[@mikegilbert7276]

Enjoyed the video. A trick someone showed me for a hole in a tractor tire is to screw a pan head screw into the hole. It worked like a champ for a temporary fix.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Ah....cool idea

[@sarmadnajim4839]

I find your videos interesting as it shows facts and your smart solution methods

[@tommmarree3689]

Josh, I am new to the channel, and really enjoy how you make things simple, just how I like it, I've always enjoyed the KIS method (KEEP IT SIMPLE). Also enjoy its not the same thing all the time, one day its raking, next working around the far, then the Willys, and I'd KILL for that Grand National, what a gem!!! Good luck today and stay safe!!!

[@28cruzin]

I just dropped $4000 at Titan Friday nite. It was the last day of a 12% off sale. And yes, I bought a 6' Rakey Bobby, too, along with a bucket grapple, a tiller, and a few more goodies. I still want a scraper blade and am holding out for an Everything Attachments sale. I really enjoy your videos. See you in the next one.

[@dancrafton89]

Had a guy ask me what a the weight of a truck tire was I told him about 150 pounds. He said how much air is in it 100 pounds and he said so it is 50 pounds flat and he wrote that down in his report. He was a my rehabilitation counselor then I messed my shoulder on the job when I was driving a 18 wheel end dump. Could not believe a guy that had a college degree said something like that. Keep up the good work and God bless.

[@simonrowley4913]

Happy times Josh down on the farm. 👍🏻

[@cormackeenan8175]

The smart thing to do is take your anvil of the back of the truck where most of the energy you applying with the hammer is being absorbed by the suspension of the truck. After watching a good number of these type of videos, it’s become apparent to me the protagonist of these videos love when things break, so they can have the pure pleasure of fixing them.

[@tomlee7966]

you sir are a lucky man to be living on such a gorgeous piece of property!!! doing a great job love watching the progress and all your videos!! keep em coming!!!

[@fooddude9921]

'Bout the only thing more satisfying than doing a good day's work on the farm is watching someone else do it - lol.

[@brentjohnson6654]

I always enjoy watching your videos. You explain in a great way, not talking down to anyone but in such a way to help us “noobs” understand. Have a great Memorial Weekend (yeah, I know this is a while since you posted this).

That old farmall if you still have it keep it and fix it up there amazing tractors my grand father has a farm and his father bought two farmall tractors to start and we still use them today!! Along with the other farm tractors and farm tools and a farm truck is amazing to have too👍🏻 keep up the great videos👍🏻🇺🇸🚜

[@benjaminstockton3917]

Good job Josh keep working hard Josh it will pay off thanks for video's

[@supercellf5]

Thanks for the discount on my landscape rake. Pretty much covered my state tax.

[@rongeci4092]

Great video Josh. If I may give a little advice on the rake when pulling heavy material like sticks and some larger stones, instead of having the rake level try turning your top link out so the back of the rake tips down more, it will grab more material and as it gets closer to what you want then you level it out. Too bad there isn’t a mull board on it you could drop that down and pull the heavy material and the loose stuff should filter between the tines. Also a power angle rake would be nice then you could angle your rake as much or as little as you want to move material around.

[@hapnewsom9217]

I agree Josh, I have a section of rail that I use as an anvil as well....GREAT tool!

[@storklocker8787]

What a great day to be outside!

[@troyeager8877]

I've been doing my plugs the hard way. I push it in and twist it then pull the eye of the tool out and cut off excess and light with a flame, then blow out. Never had one fail but if this works I'll stop all my extras. Thank you for you knowledge.

[@semco72057]

I like the landscaping rake you have and it seem to be working perfectly and getting up all the wood and lumps of dirt and leveling out the soil. I have one which I got from my John Deere dealer and it is on one of my tractors right now and the primary implement used around my home. I still have some leveling to do in my yard and it will be used for that along with my box blade on one tractor.

[@tudor.turtle1958]

Your ducks would love wild rice planted on the edge of the pond. Food for thought

[@bradbrunelle7986]

I work in the construction industry as a pipe welder. We refer to that wrench as a spud wrench or in your case an adjustable spud. We use them to align flanges when bolting them together. I also have one on my tractor for adjusting the 3 point hitch and aligning implements.

[@countrylifewitherin]

Thanks Freedom Ranch!

[@scottsmith4111]

Hey Josh good video but. I am curious about how you got that flat tire when there is no gravel there and there's no glass there and I am happy that you were able to plug it that's a good thing but it's just strange the way you can get a flat on dirt

[@ronaldlarimer]

The rake seemed to do a better job than I thought for such a light weight piece of equiptment.

[@batpherlangkharkrang7976]

Hi..... Thank you 🎥👍👍👍

[@crujones6308]

Hello, was wondering if you Have messed around with detaching the lawn with a 3 point attachment before to bring up the old grass? Thanks for your time !

[@Jthumper]

Drag a pallet after that rake, you would be amazed at the leveling a silly pallet does

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

I've done it ...and it does work...I screwed buckets to the pallet and filled them with rocks that I picked up along the way...works great..that was prior to the youtube channel

[@Jthumper]

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer when I did my one acre lawn I pulled a Harrow with a pallet behind that with a lawn roller handle strapped to the pallet looked pretty awesome had to weight the pallet down cuz it kept going airborne

[@HewettHomestead]

[@ArkansasPilgrim]

It it doesn't work, BEAT ON IT! We think alike, Josh. Wooooo! ETA: I wondered what that kind of wrench was for.

[@tropifiori]

I love my landscape rake (York rake). I have put in two lawns with it and use it for gravel roads. I have a little hobby blacksmith shop in northern Franklin County if you need something small fixed

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Cool....thanks Frank!

[@ynotshowme2ur3times]

Farmer/offroad truck driver pro tip josh.......spray either, carb cleaner or even windex if thats all you have to clean the tire as good as you can around hole then use liberal amount of tire cement on your pluggs. Also if you can get truck tire plugs or industial plugs. The cement will be more of a lubricant but double as a sealant. I found that alot of times i could get away with using a plug but i always had a slow leak and had to add 15-30lbs per day after.......but with cement it made it a better fix usualy.

[@BUD100ify]

Josh, there should be a tube of rubber cement in that kit...put that on the plug before you stuff it in.

[@nicholasnapier2684]

How you beat me to it but you know what we all when we live out in the country you know you run in 4-wheel drives in the woods you always have one of those in your truck are you live on a farm that's the way it goes plug and Patch those tires and you got to have some glue...

[@matthewthibodeau9921]

You must be thinking of a square or round patch because I never seen glue come with that type of plug

[@dothagedm]

Is that seriously the biggest hammer on the farm?? How do you live, man? LOL. Love the vids, keep 'em coming. Any consideration to planting a pollinator flower garden by your pond? The right mix reseeds itself, looks beautiful, keeps your bees happy, and you don't have to mow it. Food for thought.

[@roberthoward7233]

Believe me a quick hitch is a must if you change implements very often. Stops the frustration. Your vids have lots of information. Keep it up. 👍👍👍

[@bobpayne830]

In New England we call that a York Rake

[@OakKnobFarm]

I was thinking the same thing (we're in NH)

[@clydestewart2485]

where does the York come from ... was he the inventor....?

[@KarasCyborg]

Do you find the swivel angles to be of any use? Which is better the 22.5 or 45 deg angle?

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

you just have to play with it a bit to see what works best for ya

Hey! Josh ,U ,&Family , As ,All That watch .God Bless!

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

I had to laugh because I was going to suggest to you to cut the plug down so it doesn't rip out, but you beat me to it!! LOL

[@camhester4251]

i recently bush hogged a thicket on my property and went over it afterward with the rake and it worked well other than filling up with debrie i had to stop and clean it out often but it worked good anyway , maybe i should've angled the rake to where it unloaded it self on one side , what's your opinion on that ? is your pond stocked with fish ?

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

I think brush will just clog the crap out of it...the angle helped more with piling up the rocks....this saturday's video will give ya a better idea of how it all went together....and cleaned up too

[@rkwill100]

shouldn't there also be a bottle of glue (rubber cement) to goop the patch worms before inserting into the tire

Hey Josh! I recently come across your channel..cool content..My question is I've started a new channel myself It seems hard to get videos out there to be watched..you have a great fan base, how long did it take before you we're seening decent views per video? I own a Excavation company in upstate NY so I just started filming its more work load but relaxing at the same time . Thanks Mike 👷

[@dalepremo3695]

Hi Mike. I discovered Josh not too long ago when he started working on the Jeep renovation and have found him to be a genuine, interesting and funny guy. I guess if it's OK, I'd have to chip in to your question and say that posting your comment got me to take a look at your channel and although I've only checked out a few of your vids so far, I find the same kind of things that interested me in Josh and some other channels. So I guess posting comments is at least one of the ways to increase your exposure. It's all about Views, but Likes, Subscribing, etc. all help with getting you noticed and then things blossom. Good and interesting content, proper sound, and good explanations are all part of it and you seem to have made a good start. Good luck and see you on your channel.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Yep...I know the stuff...but it aint gonna work on this monster hole....the tires have chemicals in them to "load" them up...so if ya put in slime...it would dilute it too much...good idea though and works great on my mower!
