Tyler: Really like the way you don’t let “Perfect” be the enemy of “Good”. Is the change “good enough” to accomplish the desired end state. It’s even better when the change is accomplished with an investment of minimally necessary time and resources. Good Job on the bale feeder trailer.

Oh, that mud...and the green grass. Of course, Tyler is always being resourceful on a budget.

I watch Tyler do his work, then I go do mine. I love this channel.

Learning to know when something needs to be good enough, and not necessarily “perfect”, is a valuable lesson. A lot of times “good enough” will suffice. Also, you practice welding project made a great short.

Also might be good justification for bringing bales to it instead of pulling home. You recently thought about that.

Equipment always needs repair! Looks good and is definitely functional! Good job FTR!

Nice job Mr. FTR . Try to keep your nose above the high water mark the next few days. Yes, the Go Pros are working nicely on their new “resting” spots !!

Great job. Grass looks amazing. Cows all look healthy. Dogs have tooooo much energy.

I watch with my Black Lab, Gilbert, he loves when he can see and hear the cows. He was born on a ranch. But most of all he is in love with Callie.

Wow I don’t think I’ve ever seen Tyler without a cap 🧢

Greetings from New Mexico farmer. We are patiently waiting for the rain that California just went through.

Just a thought, why weld it? Why not use a pin mechanism that allows you to remove and place in various locations. It can still be bowed, but it solves your head banging…

Wondering how the overseeding in the home pasture is looking? Much visible now?

Great job. Stopped or minimized the twist and makes the perfect place to attach a tarp to keep the hay dry. Your talents are endless!

cows look great

Really enjoying your videos. Very articulate expressions of the process. Tip of the hat to you.

If anything else, add some gussets to the inside corners for added strength.

Tyler, Ha! As I watched today’s video, I thought I need to give you some KUDOS for your very good filming and editing skills.

What about hinged bars/lid? That way, it strengthens it and you can open it to put hay in it?😊

Thanks for the video, I usually learn something and always enjoy watching!

Could you build a removable bar that could be taken off or swung over when I stalling bails then swing it back down into a bracet with a pin or bolt??

Dogs are hilarious!🤣🤣

Nice job, but I was half expecting to see several lengths of oil pipe being bent to shape and welded on! :0

Good morning Tyler and family.

I love watching your welding jobs my grandson wants to be a welder. Again great video.

Great job FT! Always a pleasure to watch your successes!!!! God’s blessings!!!❤❤❤

Good job again there Tyler

The flex is out but the wheels are rubbing. Well done.

It's officially a Franentrailer!! Great job.

🤔..... add gussets at the inside angles of crossovers, where they meet the angle iron, and tie in on both sides where it meets cross overs ...

I always enjoy the videos Farmer Tyler!!! Thank you

As Always Great Job Tyler. Ur Skills r Superb, Keep Up the Talent. Keep Pushing!

Job well done 👍👍👍💕

what a great place to heal!! You should market your place for that!

Enjoyed watching the video Tyler 😊

why not ay down fence panels or angle iron side to side flat along the floor and weld to the side posts. It would add strength and be "below" the cargo space or at least out of the cows way. May not totally solve the issue but I think would help.

I would consider stiffening up the frame.

So… gotta ask, was there some reason why FTR didn’t make the hoops a few inches taller so he could walk underneath them easily? Or would making them taller diminish the structural support they provide? Another highly enjoyable video ! Love the unique camera angles

Good job !!!

Once again great job

Good fix. No bumped head.

Looks Perfect to me !

Great job Tyler!

Great job Tyler

You look like Jack Nicholson with your hat off. "Here's Tyler!".

You have a lot of cows and calefs and bulls, chickens, and pigs 🐖 🐖

Tyler, the only thing I would do differently is gusit the upper corners of the bow. You still have twists, and that's where it will stran on the welded angles. Just my opinion. Great job.

It looks like you got plenty of rain as muddy everything there is along with standing water. The rain will be good for your pasture ground.

Less talking and more action. Lol..love your work and videos.

Another awesome job😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

You ought to think about some merch with your cattle brand on it

Thx for sharing

I don't know if you planned this or someone else suggested this but you could put a tarp over the trailer now and keep some of the rain off the bail.

I think the problem is with the original trailer frame. My guess is that it is just a simple ladder frame made out of channel iron. That’s the way camp trailers are typically built. What the frame needs is a torque tube. Put a 4” pipe between the frame rails near the center of the frame from front to rear. Yes, bigger pipe isn’t cheap but you should only need 5-6 feet of it and just about anything used will work. Visualize if the trailer was only three pieces, frame rail on each side and a piece of pipe going side to side in the middle, the pipe won’t want to twist and that will keep the two rails in the same plane. Channel iron by itself has almost no torsional strength so you need to add something that does. I had this problem myself decades ago and every trailer I’ve built since has a torque tube. Camp trialers don’t have them because there’s enough shear in the walls to stop the twisting.

Curious what options for strengthening the frame (foundation) were also considered or vetted.

Nice job.

Weren't you the one that asked why gpa didn't make the roof taller on the calves pen? Why didn't you make the trailer supports taller, so you wouldn't bump your head? 💖🌞🌵😷

Is there a reason why you can’t bring a bale in the back of your truck, then just move the hay wagon 20 yards or so, then dump the bale from the back of the truck? Would stop a lot of back and forth driving and less wear and tear on hay wagon!

T-shirt weather in Cali

thx

Would not welding bracing underneath strengthening the frame to stop the racking of the frame.

Great video! Do you have hundreds of geese around all the time?

Awesome job thank you for the video

Sound like the trailer tire’s were rubbing,after you loaded it.

Great video Tyler

Whats your thoughts on a Triangular shaped piece of 3/16" Plate Steel welded into where the tubes meet the Sides to reinforce your welds of the braces to the sides?

Nice job!

U only use one bale in trailer so u can support it anyway u want

3 questions. 1 - Did you re-weld that one spot you were talking about in the beginning? 2 - Why do you keep using the same spot to bring the feed wagon, especially when there’s all that mud? 3 - What was the scraping noise while you were going down the dirt drive near the end of the video? Thanks for sharing. Have a good day. ⛅️

Why not just leave the trailer at the winter pasture and move it around the pasture when needed? Thereby avoiding the bumpy road.

Hi,just a quick and probably silly question,why do you need to unhook the trailer when welding?

All you had to do is turn it upside down and put some gussets on it

❤ video ❤

My thoughts are with tipping the trailer on its side and welding some cross braces on the bottom. It would be a pain in the neck to do. But it would be worth it

Tyler, don’t you think the main problem is because there is no suspension on your trailer?

Thanks Tyler 2-20-2024., I can barely understand you talking so Fast 2-20-2024👍🏽👍🏽❤️. I think it’s KZfaq because another Channel is doing the same thing talking real fast

Hey brother tyler , What breed of cattle do u own ?

Tyler, would it help to grade the roadway?

You think you’re ever go for a Hereford or black Hereford bull?

I tried to comment on livestream but was too wordy, with the steers , could you cut the bladder out of an ibc, load up 3 bales and put a bladder upside down over 2, strap them down, then just uncover a new bale each day you needed one, save carting the trailer back amd forward

💖💖💖💖💖

💖💖💖💖💖💖

👍👍❤🐂

🙌🏻💕

And how many times did you hit your head? Didn't see any? The true test..... when off camera!

I cringe every time you set a bale/feed wagon over a wet and muddy spot.
