I am retired and watch a lot of videos. You are by far one of the best narrators for videos. Growing up on a farm in the 1950s, your video content brings back a lot of memories. All of our equipment was open station and we got all of the dust, heat and cold. We used Farmall and IH equipment. I ran a WD-9 International tractor plowing and disking most of the time as a teenager. My Dad said that was about the only thing I could not tear up.

Corn started coming down out here by Bismarck two weeks ago along with the damn flowers. I have no idea how the hell we managed to pull off a late plant and turn around and have an early Harvest I've never seen corn come off this early let alone the flowers. The crazy thing is they could have taken high moisture corn the second week of August and the yields would have still been good it's not like it was completely water deprived. Strange year I tell you strange year.

Love the videos, been on a binge watching marathon recently. Be careful filling the fuel filters that way. It bypasses the filter and can damage the injectors if there are any small particles in the jug. The machine should be able to prime itself with the fuel pump, or there may be a manual prime on it. Not nitpicking just a suggestion.

Kids again, you have no shame. Love too see them in the videos. There's a product you can use to keep things from rusting like the battery clamps. All you have to do is spray them about once a month and it will do wonders keeping rust from forming. If I could only remember the name of the product? I'll do some research and get back with you on that amazing product to stop rust. God bless.
@brianhubbard64236 жыл бұрын
@Douglas Rohr Do you know how WD40 started? History, W - stands for water. D - stands for deturant, and the number 40 is for formula number 40. It was developed during the world war. It was the 40th formula that was tested to detur rust from forming on tanks and artillery units.

This may be a dump idea but it may work with having several attachments you can put on the tube of your grease gun. what if you take those attachments and put grease zeros in the end of them. to make it easier to change the attachment so all you have to do is clip on an attachment when you want it
