The nerves in your hand get much more sensitive when they're cold. Also, your veins constrict, and blood runs less to your extremities and more to your vital organs to preserve heat. This makes your skin more rigid, which causes pressure to be applied to these already sensitive nerves. So everything is getting less blood flow, which also makes it harder to make precise or repetitive movements (texting when it's cold).

I am from the old school. When we turned around 9 or 10, we were taught how to work...run the tractors, drive the the pickups. It builds character, physical and mental strength. When you were ready, you spent the day, dawn to dusk, catching hay from the bailer and stacking it on the cart. Then you had to catch it from the cart and stack the bails in the barn / hay loft. I was the one who had to climb the silo and shovel the silage down for the cows. That was fun! I love all the new equipment, and you definitely need it all for what you do, but good memories of doing a lot of manual labor. Edit: figured I would add I am from up here in N.E. Pa ( Lake Ariel ).

It's cheaper for Zack because he already has all the equipment and expertise so the costs are not so huge for his operation.

People rent their land due to a variety of reasons. Getting to old to farm. They don't have the money to risk in planting. The farmer died and the family will rent the land for a few years until probate, wills, heirs, jobs allow them to formulate a new plan. Just for a for instance, my family farmed in Nebraska 100 years ago. They farmed their own land, and they rented the land from a widow lady next door as her husband died and she couldn't farm it. She took a percent of the crop.

I know when I was a kid there were very few times we would have a service call where we would have a tech come to the site. Simpler times, fewer people were willing to go into debt on things. When Zach broke the shaft on the auger earlier this year I muttered to myself "Dad would have had the thing pulled, jigged and trued it up as best he could with whatever was handy and welded it back together with the old Lincoln arc welder set on nuclear. I remember one year we were cutting hay and one of us pulled a rock into the 469 Haybine and actually broke the stub shaft off the one of the upper crusher/roller on a Saturday. This was one of those older machines that the hub was actually part of the roller and not a bolt on deal. So the proper fix was to pull the rollers and install different rollers. I remember how dad fixed it without replacing the rollers or even pulling them. Dad used carbide bur to cut a V into what was left of the stub on the roller and cut a V into what was left of the shaft with a grinder. Left the rest of it alone so the break would act as a lock and center it. Then used a couple of magnetic triangles and a sacrificial hose clamp to hold the stub in place while he got it tacked. Then once he had it tacked in 3-4 places burned it in with the welder. Obviously had to pull alot of stuff off the machine to get access but he was back in the field mowing hay again Sunday afternoon. Was only supposed to be a temp fix. Well, we all know how those go. Ended up running the machine about 3 more years like that till he ended up wearing the rest of the machine out and junking it.

Reason for extra pain, In the cold the BP changes and p cells, the receptors in nerve systems that regulate pain and sense changes to the environment, are overdriving to adapt to the change which means pain signals intensify. Also the capillaries open to increase bloood flow and that’s can also be painful in trauma. That’s what my Doc explained to me, I had a orchidectomy and they damaged some nerves, treatment for the pain was to overdose p receptors with capcatium cream to overload the system and dull my responses over time. Now check this, rubbing chilli cream on your sack was one of the most insane things I have ever done and I found that it didn’t really help but it did test my sense of humour as I would 😂 at the fact that I had done this. The doctor then reminded me that he said it was meant to be rubbed into my mid back at the nerve branch to overload the system at the spinal nerve branch. I swear that he said rub it where you have the source of pain. Anyway that’s an explanation as good as any I have been given! Happy days and lads please check monthly and don’t be shy if you find a lump! 9 year survivor of Testicular Cancer and I will admit I waited a little too long to get to doctor.

Accelerator beater, rear beater feeding straw on to workers and main subframe under engine took a beating. Took me 8 days to repair. Some of the damage I could only see with a mirror. This was on a mf 760 1977 so no bits available. Was a successful repair but very disappointing to loose a new bolt that had only run 60 hrs since we put on new rasp bars. I knew it was a bolt failure because we found it minus head and there was no head damage on rasp bar. Grrrr.

Have you looked into a portable hydraulic unit you could move from bin to bin when you needed the sump savers?

Have you taken the 8 hour test regarding the first 6 pages in the manual? The next 8 hour test only takes 3 hours if you are a qualified Bohemian mechanic. Apon completion of the second test you can then pull those 2 pins to empty the drain connected to the fluegefelter drain. If you havent passed the test, ( score >98%), then go back to the trash pile that you originally and place the trash back into the Fluegefelter drain. Upon completion go back to the barn and cry.
