I can’t tell you how much I enjoy your channel. Thanks so much. Have a great day.

The interaction between you and your dad was priceless! I knew you were up to no good when you offered him some gum. I laughed almost as hard as you did. Peace!

What makes this video exceptional is the love between father and son!

Chet all I gotta say is your dad must really love you with all the wise ass crap you sling at him. Don't get me wrong it's hilarious. I'm just sitting here falling off the chair. World wide sports man hahahahaha. Giving him sour gum. And he takes it so well. Dougo you're a good man letting Chet do this comedy skit on your account. Man oh man. Chet don't ever change.

Your repair adventure on the excavator brings back memory of EVERY field repair we have ever done. As dad says, "the machines get newer and require you to be more flexible and I get older and can't bend anymore so it's a danged " conspiracy!" The machinery manufacturers are conspiring against me to cause me more physical pain. When I die, im going to come back and haunt them all." He keeps on saying that they should make it so you just pull 3 pins and the motor falls out, just like a 1970 Chevy Vega.

I'm 64. Spent 8 days inside the combine. Working off the straw walkers. Had to make up boards and cover in carpet. The front access to replacing drum bars are via a pallet put on feeder house with foam.and carpet on top. Confined spaces is no fun with sharp edges and hanging outwards. Feel old pretty quick to say nothing of the up and down trips for tools etc. Just be thankful your not dealing with pigeon poop as well!

Always great to see father and son working together!!!

I'm 60 and was a mechanic and construction worker all of my life. I have a hard time even changing a darn air filter anymore!

When i thought about the bottle being left in the excavator, my first thought was that it wasn't Brody, because everything you see him use is clean afterwards. I had to laugh though, because i could see a picture of Dougo going into full trouble bus fear mode. Seriously though, that could have been bad. Good on you fellas taking care of the fixalating, because Dougo is my age, and it starts being a bit rough on you when you have to crawl around under stuff. G-d bless y'all.

A bad day on our farm came when we burned a bulldozed grove into piles for burning. A barn burned to the ground and a grainery was saved by multiple volunteer fire departments. It turned into an event. Local ladies were selling coffee and sweets. Not kidding. I was 8 and it was a very exciting day for me. 1964. I will never forget watching my dad take off on the Oliver Super 88 in road gear to get to the house phone a half mile away to call the fire department. 7 miles away. Lac qui Parle county about a mile south west of LQP Lake.

U guys are so good together, A good father & son team.👍👍🙂🙂

Loved seeing your dad's reaction to the Atomic Warheads, my dad did exactly the same but with more swearing.

So Doug and Chet , have either one of y'all had the PLEASURE of changing the 16 spark plugs in your Hemi 🤣😂😅? If you haven't , it's a real joy 😀😊😉 !! Ol Pappy loves y'all 🙏❤🚜🇺🇲

That was funny when you gave your dad some gum. And then when Dougo was trying to get the socket, and getting his hat an clothes all dirty. Thanks for another great video.

Always good to have a Dougo episode

You and your dad are hilarious together love the relationship you guys have with one another, it's really fun to watch.

Big Swede is gonna grab some Ball Park franks and some marshmallows and have a campfire cookout on the burn pile

chet, thanks for fixing stuff so your dad doesn't have to crawl around under it . You are awesome.

The first minute with Dougo always the best

I absolutely love all your content been watching for a few years now and things just keep getting better. Your relationship with Dougo (Dad) makes me laugh reminds me of my father and I on the farm. Keep up the great work guys, looking forward to many more videos.

yes chet, somebody saw that ouch! God bless you guys and praying your crops will finish before the frost

Burn piles are why we have popcorn. Throw a few ears on the fire. Then try to catch the popped kernels as they come flying out. You do know that the design engineers go to great lengths to make sure components are almost but not quite impossible to service. Another great video.

We always had a pair of coveralls on hand when the wrenching got messy. It was nice to be able to take them off to go to get parts or elsewhere.

Thank you God bless

It's always a joy to see everyone interacting together. Seems like you have a great group with Randy and everyone all together.

Always enjoy the big swede taking the time to explain like the corn and it’s growth stages. I’ve heard others on other pages state well I know that way I have to hear it? I know the stages and most parts of farming but what they forget to understand is there’s alot of people that truly enjoy these pages don’t have any idea about anything in farming and they want to learn. So it’s really cool when u guys take the time to explain things to those that don’t know. Like I said I know a lot but not all so I even enjoy learning

Your father is a good sport. My youngest son actually does repair excavators for a big company in California. You called it right. My son's in his mid 40s.

I always enjoy watching you make farming fun to watch.

Great video Chet Dougo Eric Broodie great explanations thank you for sharing and your time was really great never miss a video

Way to much fun

I work at a bobcat dealer and its funny to see the older techs (old as in late 20's early 30's) who are going to the chiropractor every week and say they will be in a wheel chair by 40, then we got our corporate service manager who is 67 years old 6'5" and has been working on bobcats and equipment for almost 40 years and somehow is in better shape than all of us

Sour warhead gum.....that was awesome! 🤣. Still laughing

Thanks for another great video Chet and Dougo. Eric and Brody too. It was interesting and enjoyable. The best part of the video is you and Dougo hunting for that socket. Dougo had me in stitches laughing. Oh my what a hunt that was. Good thing for that magnet. Those machines are not easy to work for on. So much stuff is behind panels like you say and hard to reach some of it. But between you both you got the new belt on and working. Ya!!!!! Big fires-wow!!!!! Never seen the edges worked like that before. Super idea and sure got it all burned except the root balls. Good work troops. Good teamwork I should say. Neat video everyone. Dougo sorry about your hat getting grease on it. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video b Thanks for everything you all. The Iowa farm boy. Steve. Forgot something from today’s video. When Dougo took that sour tasting gum from you and spit it out I was in stitches laughing. Chet, your dad is like me, we are from the old school. Funny item today. The Iowa farm boy.

Dougo in any video is a bonus absolutely love his attitude and he’s right Amy Chet did get the grease on Dougo’s shirt. Enjoyed video guys keep it up and God bless.

Thanks for sharing all the things you do

True story from working on the farm in the summer near Asquith, SK in 1961. . . . a dairy farmer had some hay overheat in the barn loft. The barn burned. The Asquith Volunteer Fire Dept. had one firetruck at that time. Unfortunately, the only firetruck was having its engine rebuilt. . . . so, the volunteer mechanics were called and started working on the engine. The truck got to the fire about daybreak. . . . no problem. Imagine that! My uncle said that everybody gets excited about spraying the remaining glowing embers. The fire chief yells, "Prepare, . . . here comes the water!" "Hang on!" My uncle said that it was almost comical. He said a tiny stream came out. . . . In fact, he said that he could have peed more water than what came out. His wife, my aunt, said that he should have driven up to the embers and asked, "Do you mind if we roast some wieners on your embers?" We had a good laugh, but the dairy farmer had lost good hay. . . . The drought last year was compared to the summer of 1961. I had just finished my Grade 11. I recall having no rain days working on their house. You see, I was the resident carpenter that year. That summer has lots of good memories. Your conversations help bring back those memories. Thank you. By the way, my aunt was a great cook. . . . those were the days alright. 😊

Hay was to green. Had to much moisture. With hot weather leads to spontaneous combustion.

That was funny about you and your Dad and the socket, but it was really funny when you pulled that bubble gum deal on him that was sour. Lol😂 cool video 👍👍👍❤️

Not being a farmer, I learn something on each of your videos. Thanks! Hang in there!

I'm still looking for a 15mm 1/4 drive socket somewhere in the bottom of my 3.6L VVT Charger engine compartment. I'm glad you found yours.

Sir Doug, You are very correct... At almost 70, I can't bend like that either! [OUCH!] I won't go over all the other things I can't do either... Just know Male Menopause is a Real Thing! However, it's not that bad... Things still work... Eh. Chet, remember... We were all strong and able to do stuff when we were your age... I'm glad you support your Father, and have good camaraderie with him... Just know, he's not telling you about all the pains and Frustrations of being older. [In your mind you're 25; until you go to do stuff.]

Great video Chet Dougo and Big Swede

Dougo: new hat and a new shirt! Corn in the burn pile? Yes, it's time for some home grown popcorn.

Fun summer time jobs. The gum was funny.

I always look forward to seeing your new videos.

It’s easy to enjoy your videos

really great video Chet. Love you and your Dad comments to each other. Y'all are so funny. Thank you for a great video ?

That was great! Thanks

Great video thanks

You can get the root balls to burn up. Keep them pushed into the middle of the burn pile. After everything burns down around them, pull them out and drop them from about 10 ft in the air. The impact hitting the ground knocks an enormous amounts of dirt off the stumps. Throw them back into the pile and repeat until there is nothing left. No burying required!

Those magnetic grabbers are priceless. So useful when working on machinery, cars, and trucks. I also have a mechanical grabber, like a mini version of the claw game (except mine actually holds on to stuff).

And in Ireland all agriculture burning of bushes and dead trees like that is banned. New O2 emissions rule. As well as cutting bovine herds.

Chet - might be time for Larson Farms bump cap. Ouch!

Yep I'll have to agree... That's the pioneer corn

I can't tell you how many times our boys got their dad with sour gum or sour hard candy. You made me laugh. Good memory

I hope you all are able to harvest before frost. The corn doesn't look like it's near ready unless this was filmed weeks ago.

Best episode yet! The interaction between you and your dad Chet, that was amazing, I laughed so much watching that.. 😂

The most important belt on that cat is the air conditioning belt.. right Dougo..

Great root Balls of Fire!

I love Eric's explanations and indepth information dumps, it's truly fascinating stuff. I'm no farmer so I wouldn't learn this stuff otherwise. He presents it in such an easily understood manner, really enjoyable to watch. Hardest I've laughed all week with the warhead joke, I'm going to keep that one for personal use.

Man chet we've had nothing but 95+ since may here in southwest Kansas. Bout to start fall silage harvest next week because there's no water and the corns shrivling up.

I know the feeling. I am six four and working on our skid steer is a pain. With that cab up I don't fit under there. It would still be a pain if I was shorter 😂

Good stuff man Chet👍👍👍👍👍.

Advise, to burn trees and brush 1. Dig a burn pit 2. Get an air blower, 3. Have a water tanker by 4. Once it stats have the excavate drop on trees and brush! Do ash no restocking! Safer! Done this many times on large highway projects through vegetation and trees

Chet , to save on your knees and elbows working in those tight and hard to reach areas, they make a mechanics rubber pad which is about an inch thick , you will save a lot of skin . 👍

Nice stand of corn considering the late start.

Oh yeah check your sheaves or pulleys for wear cause it’s crazy how much they wear with all the dust and oil especially the crank cause I have a 345 that was overheating like you I changed belts , piulleys ,pulled the rad sent it out to be checked inside and out and did the thermostats but come to find out it was my crank pulley it was so worn that the ribs were barely visible

Love it

I think you guys are a bunch of mechanics who do a little bit of farming :3

And each kernel of corn has one tassel connected to it ! If you strip the green off of a cob when the tassel is just out, you can see it all on display !

Had the same happen to me last season in my 8640. Bottle got stuck in the throttle linkage in the cab, and couldn't get it to idle. Lol

We are under a burn ban. Here in SouthEast Kansas. Been dry for months corn looks bad.

Also check the clutch on the Cooling Fan

Dougo always makes my day. Does he ever curse? Because I know when I hit my noggin with an open hatch, there's some F Bombs gettin' dropped! lol! Would be fun to see the cursing outtakes for a year. lol!

If you would have made the pile in/on the hole you dug for the rocks. The root balls would burn much better. Then you could put the rocks in and cover it up. Try it and you will never do it any other way.

Better check that pannel for cracks after hitting that hard head
