    HP required for elevators

    Hey Guys, I have 2 elevators I use exclusively for small square bales. One is a 40 foot Kewanee and one is a 20 foot Mayraith tube type. The longer one is PTO powered and the smaller one has a 3/4 HP electric motor. I am wanting to convert both to gas engines to free up a tractor and get away...

    I need a new welder, advice wanted !

    I am convinced that I need to invest in a new welder. I currently have 3 welders which are not serving me very well. I have a Hobart Handler 120 wire feed mig which is fine for sheet metal but little else so it just sits around a lot. I have a 40+ year old Century 5 in 1 arc welder which has...

    Long Lived Battery

    Once in awhile the topic of battery life shows up here whether it be short or long life. My 2003 Durango showed the first signs of needing a new battery yesterday, it is the same one that came with the truck when I purchased it new in late 2002. Pretty good ! I have seen some Motorcraft and...

    Affection For Mechanical Items

    I am working on my old plow truck tonight, 1985 GMC K1500 4x4. We are expecting a large snowfall here in central MN. I have owned this truck about 20 years, it was my main road truck for years, now it never leaves the yard and is only for plowing snow. It is nicely optioned and has aftermarket...

    Hay Rope Questions...

    I am kicking around the idea of putting the old hay trolley/track and rope set up back in use in my old barn. I currently use a PTO elevator to unload which works fine, but it is slow,especially when I am by myself which happens more and more it seems, and the bales need to be dragged away from...

    OT Rude People

    I went to Walmart last night then to the movie theater to see a film. I was blown away by the general rudeness of people, and this is Minnesota where we are supposedly known for being "nice". From poor and reckless drivers, people leaving carts anywhere and everywhere, making cracks to the...

    That's the Dumbest Thing I Have Done Lately...

    Late last night I was working on a Saturn, the job was to replace the bad P.S. pump with a used one. Keep in mind this is a tight , tough job. I pulled the old one off and compared it to the "new " one, looked good. So , I am halfway through the install when something didn't look right to me...

    Learned something new today, Oil related

    I had a 2006 Dodge 5.7 Hemi Charger in today, scanned computer codes as part of a routine tune-up and found code P1521 ,which is " Incorrect Engine Oil Type ". Meaning wrong viscosity . The computer uses inputs like temperature and oil pressure plus others to calculate the oil weight. I never...

    Regular Mag Timing

    I am switching the Mag on my 27 Regular to a known good one ( I hope ) to see if my hard crank starting will get better. So I have the book handy, I put the engine on TDC compression, and it says to rotate the coupling til the distributor disc is pointing near #1 plug wire terminal and the...

    OT Severe Back Pain

    My back "went out " a couple of days ago. I had this happen one other time about 7 years back. Lasted about 6 weeks that time. I have been taking anti -inflams by what seems like the handful. I have been dragging myself through the day and just barely getting my work done. I know rest is the...

    What To Say, If Anything...

    I am not a full time farmer anymore, but my cousins who now own the bulk of the family farm land are. I cleared a wooded area of over growth and planted a strip of oats as a cover crop for grasses and alfalfa that I planned to cut for hay. I also planted sweet corn and squash in a smaller...

    Gehl Hammer Mill

    I have an old hammer mill that I still use regularly. Well the flighting on the unloading auger gave way and got all bent out of shape. I am thinking of just removing it completely and mounting a little pad instead since I only grind into sacks or barrels anyway, no bins. I was thinking as...

    Temporary Ear Corn Storage Question

    I am thinking about making a small temporary corn crib out of snow fence for the extra corn I have this year. This used to be pretty common around here . My question is whether to cover it with a tarp or not. I dont recall they were ever covered . Is there a reason for that ? Does the corn do...

    I found this amusing ...pic

    Corn Harvesting the Old Way

    It was a perfect day here in MN for picking corn, 75 and mostly sunny. It has been a great fall so far, warm and dry. I took the day off from my regular job to get my little bit of corn harvest done. I picked 3 1/2 flare boxes full of some of the nicest cob corn I have ever seen. We had good...
