Thank you sir

Tidying up is a good thing. Keep up the good work.

Mike, you take pride in the things you do when you use your hand made drag to smooth the ground. And besides, it makes the area near your shop and pond look much nicer. Blessings to you.

I’ve seen you use that drag many times but todays video was especially pleasing and rewarding. Weird that it always seems enjoyable …but it does. That drag is an amazing implement with, what seems to be the perfect amount of disruptive pressure and bounce to chew up clods. Kudos to you for making the time to “interfere” with productive work to make your content more interesting. For some reason, today I was aware of many times when you had to stop and get off your JD to move rocks and roots …then the epiphany. You are also taking time to set up the camera to capture these moments so WE can go with you. Thank you for that !!

Thats a nice machine and grader attachment! Great job! Amazing how much work can get done with a tractor.

In regards to the lawnmower that won’t run, I find the best thing to check is the bolt under the float bowl that goes up into the carburetor. It’s supposed to have holes in it that feed fuel up from the float bowl into the carburetor if those holes are clogged, no fuel and engine doesn’t run. It may or may not be the problem but it’s always a good place to start I find. I learned this trick when I was trying to get a lawnmower, running and rebuilt the whole carburetor to find out that that bolt that holds the bowl onto The bottom of the carburetor was supposed to have holes in it for the fuel to go through. Before putting all the parts in the carburetor cleaner and let them soak, I couldn’t see any indication of the holes. Later, when the engine started running rough I pulled the bolt out to find it had gotten clogged up again and let it soak a little longer before Using the spray can carburetor cleaner, and the straw that came with it which led me to found out there were three holes that led up to the top of which I had only uncovered one the first time. OK you may want to start to check if there’s spark, but the big three for it to run are spark, fuel and air. In my experience, though, I find that bolt getting clogged up with gas varnish is more common than the ignition system failing and it being so choked for air it won’t run.

Mike I'm going to make suggestion to you would you drinking up all that old wood and find some good tops well even though it's got rims and rocks why you make a shaker table where the kids could shake out the good dirt and get up the rocks the tree limbs that are big so you have good dirt for your beautiful wife above-ground farm area I know you can build one and I know you got plenty of wood to use and I know you got some extra chicken wire alright this is Bob from. Vero Beach Florida God bless and have a great week

Would like a short video to see how the chickens are doing, and the friendly turkey.

Great job great video thanks Mike

It’s odd to see the 755 and 555 parked back at the “shop” after working…I thought they were free range machines and lived in the woods?

Nice work Mike the place is really shaping up.When are you going back to your brothers property to get it dialed in?

Are you going to add a ballast rack to the road grader? An equipment owners best friend can often be a trash picked weight set (almost as easy to find as a free treadmill lol) It’s kinda too bad there’s not a down pressure piston on the back connections.

Idk Captain, worrying about aesthetics seems more of a feminine atribute. Since they tend to care what others think more than guys do. They like things to look nice as well on general principle. Afterall if it wasn't for women we would still be living in caves happy as a clam, 😁Are you sure it wasn't your better half saying something about the aesthetics to you?🤣Teasing aside, it looks really nice . 👍
