Time to come home... 🙂

[@johnearhart8811]

This is cool. Enjoyed the old time equipment being possibly put to use just because. Thanks Mike

[@dennyr6248]

Go completely old school and use the massey combine to harvest what the massey diskers planted.

[@BeingMe23]

That could be a band "Ernie and The Diskers" Known for their famous hits! - Old but not forgotten - 20 years ago - One wheel - Can't stop - It's me not you - We shall meet again Their #1 single is "I have no right".

[@helifixer206]

Oh man that reminds me of our old JI Case one way seeder/disc. You can't turn right LOL, I forgot all about that, and the half bald tire on the back.... Good memories of planting with that old case on the back of an open 4020 JD. Thanks for the time warp!

[@arlenstrauch]

Love hearing the Canadian word "giv'r" thanks for going back in time. 😀

[@mikemitchell2554]

Thanks! I like the old school stuff 🙂

[@raypitts4880]

how about were bist gying where are you going england 1920's

[@mikesmith1076]

Love the old Massey

[@ronniesorter1888]

Massey loved their "magic wrenches." I remember the giant wrench each Massey 760 and 860 came with. Conveniently located right above the fuel tank.😂😂

Mike, like very much how you respond to the negativity with positivity. Very classy 👏

[@mikemitchell2554]

Thanks Charles 🙂 There will always be differed opinions and that's ok.. Its just how you and I respond to them is what will set us apart 🤷🏼‍♂️🙂 I want to treat people how I myself would want to be treated.

[@derryhardin4047]

You should do a chart per decade of acres per employee. it would amaze the subscribers how many employees you needed 30 years ago. Great videos!!!!

[@johnd.5964]

Great to see you took the seat cushion off so it doesn't get dirty.

[@claudreindl7275]

Mike: that sticky caster wheel should be adjustable from one of the cab monitor screens. Just press: Override/Reset/caster wheel/activate, and it should self correct within 5 revolutions! LoL.

[@fowletm1992]

Didn't work Think the ISO plug on the Massey is dirty

[@craiga9492]

Looks like you had a full line Massey farm at one time 👍

[@benpattinson1]

That old Massey purrs like a kitten.

Hello from Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada. Thanks for sharing your great video’s please keep them coming. Please keep them coming you make us Canadians proud.

[@paulskorheim3721]

I enjoy seeing the country roads of Saskatchewan along with what you are doing. This is equipment out of my Era. 😀 Amazed at no trees in your part of the world unless planted. Thanks for sharing

[@alaxparthur3734]

So cool how this channel has grown over a year..

[@jeffbrooks6166]

Shift to high for engine breaking. Hi Multi-power 👍Thanks Mike

[@andrewsuwala4011]

Spent my teenage years with a Case 970 and CO-OP 18ft disc in the spring. Brings back good memories.

[@eldonjons7442]

We had a Massey 135 diesel with Multi-Power growing up. Dad always warned us to keep it in 'high' coming down the hills, but of course we wanted to go fast...so sometimes we would leave put it in 'low' half way down the hill. My little brother got a little too brave one day and put it in 'low' a little too soon, came to the turn for the lane a little too hot, hit the brakes and of course one locked up on the gravel...he just about rolled that tractor taking the corner that fast. Unfortunately for him, dad saw him do it :) . I have that tractor in my shed now, it runs but needs a restoration....

[@danielmoore6507]

Mike, "you can't turn right, only left". Me thinking, "you mean like Nascar?" Lol

[@jamiec6217]

Man your old equipment stays mint even stored outside, it would be half rusted out in our province of PEI

[@georgedavidson7986]

Salt winds off the Ocean

[@warrendemars]

Love seeing the old equipment Mike, keep it coming! Blessings!!

[@raypitts4880]

lovely perkins used all over the world run for ever cost a bit but wont let you down if you see one buy it .

[@lindenhawthorn4761]

It's fun to watch the big machinery but I'm kind of glad all I have to worry about is a 75x75 garden and keeping my walk behind tiller and lawn tractor running.

[@scottwenger7577]

Sweet old set up with the Sassy Massy. Guessing the heat and A/C don’t work so good.

[@joshuadoll9000]

What I wouldn't give to be able to run an old set of discs like my grandpa used to. Maybe one day I'll be able to find and restore and old pair to have some fun with.

[@benjaminyoung2454]

Thanks for sharing your passion of farming and history

[@thomasvogelgesang667]

Looking forward to seeding with that neat old-school equipment.

[@joelbittner6212]

Holy crap I knew y’all have quite the operation but I didn’t know you do your own crop dusting with your own plane as well. Y’all are about as big time as big time gets!

[@samellis4054]

Love the old iron!!and it would be pretty cool to see them in action again

[@thomasjunkins6491]

You have a beautiful farm Mike Mitchell.

[@markblackwood3121]

Great channel Mike. As an ex Iowa Farm boy I have been enjoying knowing about farming our northern neighbors.

[@ronaldjennings8057]

Now I know what you mean about the rear wheel got you what's a good running little tractor be proud of that thing Mike can't wait to see better videos of it for sure👍🚜🌞 God bless🙏

[@alanbillingsley2604]

Well Mike I have a question, how many acres were you drilling back in 2000 when you last used the MF 380 drill?

[@warrengraydon457]

Can turn right, just drop back discer in the ground on the road, will help swing around the corner. Most we ever pulled were 5 16' coop's

[@wssides]

That would put some bad bends and twists in the complicated hitch linkages!

[@andban92]

Seeded with 30 feet of ih disc's and a 4450 for my uncle for a few years, that's still my favorite jd tractor

🔥u right bout Perkins diesel they are solid reliable engines, my old trail groomer had a Perkins turbo diesel in her, run like a champ and just per like a kitten, pretty much start in -25 to🔥👊🔥🏍🚜🛻🚙

[@normpowell3566]

Both classic pieces of farm equipment. Hope you can restore them.

[@peteschiavoni]

I think you should add a new seat in Ernie for Mike’s comfort.

[@jacobszymczak9323]

If you do get those old discs planting I'd love to see a harvest follow up comparing yield from old school to new school

[@mikemitchell2554]

That was the plan!

[@gavinperry7237]

@@mikemitchell2554 Time again this fall for the MF Combine to show its stuff. Red paint performance vs Black or Green paint. The older MF at least won’t give you code issues.

[@Sicktrickintuner]

Even our tools in Canada are shaped like a hockey stick 🏒

[@jocamp4837]

I must say I was betting against that caster tire making it..

[@zzzubmno2755]

farming tech sure has changed over the past 20yrs. no wonder farms were much smaller back in the day, it would take you a day just to get across a large farm with that thing. im sure there are still lots of old farmers still using equipment like that. it makes me wonder if that is a contributing factor in the several decades old trend of older farmers packing up shop and selling their fields because it is too costly and a steep learning curve to buy and use modern equipment. interesting vid, thanks.

[@GijsRupert]

This is much nicer than the air drills. Thanks for this!! And send it you guys

[@robertpayne2717]

I know it's convenient but ether is very hard on diesel engines when staring. If you do use it try to have engine turning over before spraying the ether in....good alternative is using a gasoline soaked rag the gasoline vapers are not as hard as the ether

[@ericlemay686]

I really really hope you will have time to get those diskers ready to seed ! I want to see that running ! I thought I know well farm equipment but I think I don’t see everything yet !😅

[@ATLS_gaming]

133k Mike you're growing at a pretty good rate.

[@davidstout5883]

I sure would like to have a disk er to to leavel and reseed hog rooting. Like to see old equipment being used even just to keep it working. Great video.

[@Myamericanlife61]

I was broke in on a 10 ft Massey Harris planting barley lol 😂 I love that old equipment Mike awesome video I always wanted to know how one of them worked I can’t wait 🤙

[@siglarson35]

Used to fill them with 5 gallon pails.

[@jacoblenting3742]

You can use the power shifts to hold yourself

[@coleholm7501]

Don’t worry about no breaks in Yellow Creek SK we are mostly hill but ran one grain truck with no breaks for a couple years finally got them working this year thankfully because we haul our fertilizer by the old Yellow Creek ski hill and the hills are scary to look down let alone drive down

[@byamrcn]

No rush at all but yeah it would be great to see them in action someday.

[@piperdoug428]

Man when youre driving the old iron you get real quiet.....ye got a soft spot for the classics eh? i just bought an Allis Chalmers 8550, it's the one with the twin stacks n turbos

[@schachi_sm]

Have a great day 🤞🏼

[@danbonikowske5870]

Awesome stuff, love seeing that old iron

[@jackgerberuae]

Clever bit of kit this. I would love to see it working. 20 years is not that long ago, you had more sophisticated equipment than this around then.

[@domination1985]

My neighbor uses the same tractor to plow spray and seed. He has a brand new tractor but thats only to feed hay because the old tractor has no front hookups

[@tonelock6963]

Old equipment is always fascinating, but let's be honest here Mike is only doing this so he can seed without DEF. Looking forward to the no DEF combine in the fall! :)

[@sorbabaric1]

I’m not going to miss the high pitched beeping and code pings. Be great to see it working.

[@bobtanner4068]

It is marked on the Multi-Power shifter to use High

[@donfrisch6437]

Love the classic equipment still have our dad’s first new tractor 4020 and my brother and i still have our first new one a 4440 had a new 3588 2+2 in the day should’ve kept that who would’ve known that was a classic, Love the new stuff also never get tired of driving tractors and combines have a great year we could use the rain also

[@brianrutherford3229]

The older stuff just keeps on going.give it a little love and it will be ready to seed with down here we call those press drills.guesd you guys have a different name for them.

[@trevorbacelli]

Brian, that's the best way is to show the younger generation how things work, put some time into the MF seeders, that way you can show most of our spoilt Farmers ie young fellows just how it was, it will make a great video Mike, Cheers Best Wishes Regards Trevor.W.Bacelli. Biloela Qld Australia.

[@jonwhite3265]

Huh, I'm from Woodford area, never thought I'd see someone from my neck of the woods on here.

[@duanebolen8359]

It would be interesting to visit with you since an old farm boy

[@kennethcarlton2860]

Ok ,,, you have to put it end wise . We had a setup made for 2 - 30 inche row planters , but we also changed the hitch so that you pulled the first drill backwards and the rear one forward .. I know it sounds confusing it worked. MIKE the rear tire on the lead disker is sitting on an angle . Is it supposed to ? THANKS MIKE I love seeing some older equipment that I used to work with

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Mike

[@HuckThis1971]

Mixing 50% red atf and 50% acetone in a bottle works wonders for seized parts. Shake bottle before each use because it separates.

[@chuckwilliams8015]

👋thanks 😊

[@diyhomeowner3879]

That Disker was made for NASCAR...lol.

[@olenilsen4660]

I think that caster wheel identifies as a disc. It´s not your place to tell it how it should or shouldn´t feel. ;)

[@mikemitchell2554]

Bahahah 🤣🤣 comment of the day!

[@gabriels782]

Mike, you said that that seeder was not used for 21 years and placed outside in grass and it is still in good shape like this? Great quality of MF.

[@denniscarte6564]

The Massey sounds good

[@paytoncobb1548]

You don’t have breaks but you do have full throttle

Cool, and remember tractors and cars are original only once.. This unit will last beyond you or I...

[@Chiellus11]

A farm so big it has its own airport !

[@gavinwolfe3238]

Many farms have their own airstrips here in New Zealand, even farms only a few hundred acres. On steeper country like we have a lot of, a plane can be the only way to spread fertiliser or spray when it is too steep for a tractor or truck to work on safely.

[@ronlashmet5711]

We call them “one way plows” here in kansas

[@farmshoffman8475]

Great awesome video mike, only turns left , massy must of been left handed that designed that disker seeder lol I’m the only left handed on both sides . Back then left handed people were shund and got there hand slapped and told to write with there right . lol , nice to see it works

[@wssides]

It was a function of the one-way tiller design, not the manufacturer. Deere, Cocshutt, IH and the rest didn't make sharp right turns either.

[@derek8838]

Well if you REA LLY want to have some fun, see how many discers you can hook up and pull with that new New Fendt and do some seeding. 2x12 + 2x 18 + ??

[@MisterThinko]

I made the mistake of not being in direct a Massey 1100 once . Experience is a great teacher if you live

[@jeffyoung2089]

Thanks Mike!

[@davidlogel2350]

Been hearing from other guys that the hitch update you had done on your 1300’s should also be done on 950’s. Your 950 done? The damage does not look good.

[@pistonringfarms8107]

Damn. We play with our discer too. But we can turn right with ours. Its a coop discer so not a massey.

That is pretty awesome
