Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. Lots of jobs to do after harvest is done. Tillage kicks into high gear. Replacing those knives on Jim’s machine can’t be cheap. Those are heavy duty steel knives. Wow. Amazing how they have worn down. Glad to hear your new building is about here. Will be nice to see it going up. Glad you are going to help a farmer in need. Important to do that. Best wishes to your dad and his surgery on his wrist. Take care dad. Speedy recovery. My blessings. All for now. You take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything. Thanks to Becky for her video work. The Iowa farm boy.

Might want to be careful with those loose nuts. If those anchor bolts were installed mechanically (drilled into concrete and used some type of adhesive or other) and not cast in place with the slab, you may have failed anchors the whole way around your bin which led to the looseness of the nuts.

I give praise to all farmers now days. Times are rough for everyone and they play the gambling game with every crop. Times have changed since my family was farming. We dint have the GPS auto steer and such even though most was available. Out grain bins were built in 1970 and dint have sweeps we were the sweeps. We had GPS on the 4430 spray tractor and that was it. The combines was 7700 John deeres even though newer was available. My family kept with old Times. So I know the struggles with every aspect of farming. Keep up the great work the world depends on you.

Hardface weld the first two inches of chisel in a cover pass, they last three times as long. Something like a Forney 42405, the rod is about 250 bucks for 50lbs so itll last several seasons even on hard dirt. Do not weld the sweep, leave it be, just the first 2 inches or so of chisel shank. single surface pass is all you need. You can repeat the weld as it wears if you like. The rockwell hardness is mid high 50s with the hardfacing, thats going to be fantastic considering the shanks are mid 40s.
