Back Creek Homestead

Hello! Welcome to Back Creek Homestead. We live at the base of the Blue Ridge mountains. While this channel was started to display knife making ; it will also have content from our daily lives. We have a small homestead were we enjoy raising our own vegetables, hogs, and chickens. We currently pay our bills by delivering organic chicken feed to farms in VA. Trucking has been a large part of our life. Hope you enjoy :)

    Man...those tractors were just a step or two ahead of a horse. They were common in my area...never understood why people liked them...there were much better options available for the price.

    When a $89 Harbor Freight bead breaker seems like the deal of the century. For the next one some cheap suggestions, 1. Tire soap. 2.Proper tire levers. 3. Stem tool. Guessing the fight to install the tube wasn't family friendly?

    Yep good ideas for next time :) the tube actually went in fairly easy. Hopefully I don't need to do any more soon:)

    You can also have the tractor a little lower and use the air in the tire to adjust height. This is helpful in larger, heavier tires. It's more precise than a hydraulic jack. It's the only way I can change the heavy cast wheels on the front of a Case CC.

    It was rusting the rim. I thought I was going to have to weld a patch on it but I was just on the surface thankful. I plan to put fluid back in sometime but il try to get something that's not corrosive

    I have upmost respect for hard working semi drivers, but two cars passed you on the inside. Now what does that tell you about how you’re driving?

  • @backcreekhomestead
    @backcreekhomestead3 ай бұрын

    Look at the white Mark spacing on the road. The camera is a wide-angle lens and makes it look like there's more room than there should be. Both of those cars had no business getting that small space. Just because a car will physically fit in between two vehicles does not mean it's safe at 70 miles an hour

  • @KensTrains
    @KensTrains3 ай бұрын

    It tells him nothing negative about how he’s driving. Just because some crazies decide to fly past you in the right lane when there’s barely room anymore while you’re clearly trying to pass slower traffic that’s in the right lane doesn’t mean you’re doing something wrong.
