The Farmhouse Workshop. Feeding the calf. Building Rustic aromatic Cedar shelves. Name the calf?

[@joezimmerman9804]

I want to thank you for the efforts you put forth to create and post the videos. I recently retired and discovered your channel and I find the content very enjoyable and informative. In fact, you provide me wonderful ideas and incentives as I work to adjust to my new chapter and life! Ironically, my name is Joe as well, from Wichita KS, so from one Joe to another, thanks for making such a positive difference for so many people, especially me! Best and blessings to you and your family!

[@NorthernSeclusion]

Thank you Joe. What a wonderful comment. I am trying to get stuff done today but the wind is gusting over 40 mph and the temp is dropping into the single digits and it is snowing out. I see it is 46 where you are with a 20 mph wind but your high is going to be 58. That would feel like a summer day up here right now. Haha. I hope you are having a great day, get out there and get something done!

[@JustinHallowesOutdoors]

nice to see another wood shop style video, i like your style of woodworking. ,

[@prwpmp]

Yes! A workshop video with stuff getting made! Joe…I have to tell you that watching you since pre-Covid, I felt courageous enough to build my own shop in the basement. I’m making cutting boards, doing turning projects, and making rounded glued boards for my daughter to fancy up. Your usage, and more importantly, explanation of why and how you use the power tools gave me the confidence to do this. Thank you so much for being my inspiration and remote teacher!

Greetings from Northeast Ohio. I’m glad you put the cash in a warmer environment. You guys take such good care of your animals. I love the blanket jacket that you have on him. Name him Dillion.

[@irishheart4768]

Marshall Dillon , Dillon for short. Love the shell great work, Joe. 😊

[@catswambo9706]

Loved the video. I am also a fan of square but i can appreciate the beauty in the natural lines like at your dad's. Im not a fan of holes purely because I think it doesn't clean easy. The colours are amazing.

[@patsywillard3439]

I would name him Rascal. Because he is a little rascal. Love the farm videos

[@Mary-t4q8z]

Otis is a great name

[@ann-raelagrelle8312]

You are a fine wood worker

[@vickiconley3638]

[@kenhagen7718]

Oh oh,, you marked that board twice with your pencil. Your Dad is going to have a fit over that.

[@maycraib661]

Lovely shelfs, name the calf shadow.

I was thinking Mr. Dillon. He's going to be the Marshall when he gets bigger.

[@trutsieo5430]

Great shelf and cheese press!

[@lyntonmartin4868]

Gday Joe from Australia I too milked a cow and started from scratch without any knowledge. Over the years I gradually learned more and more , one thing I did was to allow my cow Razz to foster the calf , the calf would have a drink while she was in the bale, the days I needed milk I would take what I needed first. The funny thing though was Razz would only let the calf drink while in the bale she would mother it in the paddock licking etc but I would take them to the stanchion for the calf to feed . Of course her own calf could feed when it liked !!

[@robertallan9601]

Joe, surely you have named him Chuck.😂

[@SlowMotion-ec3zo]

She’s gonna like it. Cedar is similar to cypress in appearance.

[@greghollingsworth1321]

Get the calf started on some sweet feed.

[@francesbrooks2320]

Minnesota

[@woldrau777]

Name the calf to remind him of his future...Brisket

[@luckycharm-g3g]

Ruger would be a good name.

[@dennisberthiaume2058]

If you would like your planer blades sharpened, Hansen's Sharper Edge out of Cloquet can do that for you.

[@Robert-bt1bo]

Joe you feel some awesome shelves I like how you build things yourself you learned well from your dad now you got to go milk Mesa give to calf some more milk feed the chickens feed the cows can you get to relax

[@arte96]

[@KaylynnStrain]

that is one cute calf

[@erindriffield5643]

How about Louis? Truncated from Louisiana, as a tribute to Melissa’s (previous) home state and the happy memories you both share from when you would visit.

[@dustindewind3210]

Calf should be named Winkle, Lil Bull Winkle ❤ Edit: I really enjoy Festus peeking into the milking parlor thinking he's missing out on something 😂😂

[@KarenTaylor-fp5xp]

Those cheap brushes are also known as chip brush. I've learned to vigorously swipe the bristles (widthwise and edgewise) across the edge of my hand before using any chip brush. It helps dislodge nearly all of the loose bristles.

[@watsup1350]

Looks like a Happy Li’l Guy to me! Aa a breeder, you’ll want him to be that for a long time to come

[@pyewacketpeggy8329]

Moonshadow ❤

[@kenconley6396]

Theo would be a nice name for the calf. Theo the cow lol

[@fuelfumes]

Tinker is a good name

[@gregmacdonald8233]

Since you are having a cold snap,a good name for the calf would be snapper.

[@yupyup4020]

Max would be a great name!

[@dano616]

He had a dog named Max

[@jimmccormick6091]

[@allanwdoe6999]

Name for the calf: Mr. Blue, after the blue warmer that he sports right now.

[@karenchakey]

Nane it Uno. It's your first calf😊

[@funnyeh]

[@littleshopintheshed]

Considering your using a meat thermometer to check his milk temperature…Stewart, Stew for short!

[@longrider1452]

Calf named Festus would be cool

[@terryducote]

Have you retired from your contractor job? I notice you dont show pics and you dont talk about it anymore.

[@EllenCormier]

Owdis is a good name for a bull calf.

[@redcanoe9810]

[@msppilot]

He looks like a Chuck to me.

[@dedwin8930]

Can they handle the cold out doors?

[@guppy2129]

Doc🐄😊

[@kcgal81]

Being in the generation of gunsmoke I like the name uncle Finney.

[@franktillinger7468]

Jeremiah Johnson the calf

[@vickiconley3638]

Another thought for the calf’s name, how about “backseat”. For how the calf came home.

[@gilliancook4072]

[@richardchayer6597]

Chuck..... Chuck Roast. Lol

[@elteescat]

Name the calf Steakburgers!

[@norm4907]

T-Bone, enough said 😳

[@kennethpace9775]

put something stronger to hold the calf in, if he gets out because you just put a rock there he will freeze

[@SuziPoozi]

I feel so bad that the baby moo is out there all alone, how long hntil he can be with the others? Or any other critter?

[@sonjasleeper1511]

Mortimer?

[@colin8532]

T-Bone for the calf name lol

[@jimvanlinn-z4j]

[@nancymeyer-s4s]

A good calf name "Kevin"

[@sarahbenjamin3386]

Was gonna say 'freckles but that may only work while he is a calf. How about "Freddie" then? 😊
