Derek could start a channel dedicated to ancient Chinese terra cotta pottery and I would still subscribe.

That's a Mowin' To Town Rig right there.

Not Sure How A Fella Stumbled onto This Channel, But I Just Can’t Get Enough VGG !

OMG, "Should we move that acetylene closer, or is it good there?"

I know I’m not the only one who saw that Scout. That’s cool.

"I need to get this old JD mower running and drive it 100 miles."

Look at those little ones running around the farm it warms the heart like a gasoline fire warms the shop building.

I just LOVE that the whole family is involved and together, not to mention willing victi....um....participants. That's rare and wonderful in our day and time which gives us hope.

Don't stop reminding us of what makes this country work.

That blue international is a pretty cool lookin rig! 🙂

I'm not sure what I'm watching here. But it's that VGG guy. So we will just hit the ole subscribe button and see what else he offers us. 🦅🇺🇸✌️

I can't get enough of any of this both channels make my life, drags me right out of all depression and i ant kindin ya like right now!!!!!!

A fella almost fell on the floor when you said “ that escalated quickly to a frame off restoration “! Your killin me smalls! 😂😂😂

My grandpa has a 318, was the first mower a young fella learned to drive. This is kind of a special video for me. Keep up the work

Grew up with a dad who was a JD salesman. I cried when I saw that HF engine. BTW just a little further up the family tree was the 318 which is probably one of John Deere's all time greats in the Lawn and Garden arena. A 318 would actually be a collectable.

That’s the most efficient way to clean up spilled gas.

Well, who knew there was a whole other channel?!? It just popped up outta nowhere! Clicked all the buttons so now we're good.

What a lovely family campfire. So glad everyone gets to be part of the fun.

Wow a John Deere that you can actually repair!

I'm not sure what I enjoy more, the garage or the lodge. Love all the content!!!

A couple weeks ago a guy was mowin along just fine, till the beltalater that runs the knife whirler make it happeners decided it had enough... Thats fine. So I did the right thing and had a couple cold snacks instead.

Older riders from the 80s are the cats @ss. Made of some substance called metal. Love em.

A fella just found out about the lodge I'll be dipped. Keep it up vice grip

Never thought your videos could get any better, until they did

I enjoyed this. I love you other channel but Im in love with simple machines that need basic needs. Farm life is the backbone of this country

I missed hearing about your new channel!! Perfect idea

Am I the only one who sees Derek and his adventures as a more mechanical and refined version of the Red Green show?

A feller hooked his peeper on the VGG man and immediately wondered, "Why am I not subscribed to this channel?"

I'm really glad I found this channel - Great stuff! I was kinda surprised that you went with the plug after the second puncture in the tire...I was thinking, one hole to let the air out, and one to let it back in again. Should be fine. Keep up the great work! All the best to you and the family!

Well I'll be dipped, a feller can cut the grass now. Can't wait to see the meatloaf cookin' video.

Had one of the first one of those!! My dad bought it for me when I was a kid, so I could mow the several acres we lived on. Spent hundreds of hours of my life on that machine. Hydrostatic was a game changer! Onan twin ran forever!!

I was waiting for the “this episode is sponsored by The King of Beers.” Definitely some wobble pops consumed during this production.

I'm late to the Party at your family" Dig's" . . . but Happy Fourth of July Everyone ! from Boston. ( it's more Important Now than Ever 😰 )

"Not everyone drives their lawnmower to the bar."

WHAT?!?!?! A guys got a new channel? When did this happen? Subscribed

I just think that this channel should have “what could possibly go wrong” in the name

I hit that submarine button and even vibrated the bell over there, on this sneaker of a chan. Looks like the farmstead has hours of random content. Keep at it!

I've been a subscriber to your main channel for a long time, and I'm really enjoying this complimentary channel so far. Looking forward to when you do some cooking-based videos :)

Anybody else ever catch themselves firing off random Derek-isms? Now any time I see something sketchy at work, I just say “I’m gonna pretend I didn’t see that” and keep on walking.

Love it. Great family

Possum Lodge? "I'm a man, and I can change, if i have to, I guess."

You tell the kid to "tighten her up" and he instinctively screws it on clockwise. Hits a feller in the tear ducts.

How did a guy miss this?!?! Thank you 'recommended for you'! Love this guys!

Some of my favorite videos you do. I have been working on the old garden tractors since I was a kid. Great stuff Derek!

we've got a late 70's deere lawn tractor. Picked it up from a lady on FB for $150. Thing runs great. Has the original Kholer engine still, came with rear tiller, electric lift, and we just grabbed plow for it recently. terrific tractors. Going to do a full restore on it one day.

Of course it will run again it's a John Deere where I'm from is still common to see hundred-year-old John Deere tractors still in use by their proud owners of course I live in Iowa

Proud to support someone that pays such kind and encouraging attention to kids. Builds future character with each kindness. Thanks!

Thanks. We still have our JD 322 we bought new in 1988. At one point about 10 years ago I got on, turned the key, and nothing happened. I parked it and there it sits. This video has given me the enthusiasm to get it running again. Oh, it was very reliable except for the mower deck - it loved to throw belts, even when new. PITA job to replace them. Even the dealer was baffled.

That and the John Deere 318 are some of the most sought after John Deere ever!!

A guy likes that a fella puts a tree scentalator on his ridin’ mower.

ZIP TIES ON THE CHAIR !!!! Brother Vice Grip is my new hero.

This explains soooo much. Derrick, you have risen far from your very humble beginnings. Without dying. Acetylene to distance from fire ratio is obviously critical knowledge on the old homestead.

I can see a george jones style trip in Derek's future

Derek - Not everybody drives their lawnmower to the bar, George Jones - Hold my beer...........LMAO!!!!! Love the video.

ever since I found your channels, I have learned so much. Always a pleasure to see what you fix next

Thanks. It's nice to take a break and watch your videos.

“Its ford son thats what its there”. Best thing i ever heard

Hey Derek, Pro tip: When trying to do a tire plug...lube up the hole reamer with some rubber cement glue, it'll go in super easy then. Same with the plug or "worm", once you have it threaded into the insertion tool, lube that up and in she goes!

Great tractor, I have one myself with the original engine. Also have 317, 314, and 212 . The 300 series was a great tractor!

I love the 1086! Great video BTW!

Had a ol John Deere that smoked more than a coal mine on fire but it was free. Tires on the front were dry rotted but still had good tread. A feller thought to himself “why spend $60 on new tires when you can spend $30 and buy some Slime and patch them”. Welp the slime worked a charm for over a year

Great stuff. At some point I would love to hear the story of the farm.

The wife and I really like your shows. Keep up the awesome content.

Great video. As a fellow small engine reviver I appreciate that old tractor being saved.

Graduation on your new channel I hope you have great success for everything you do buddy

Getting Derek back on the farm gets his farmer lingo going more. Same as when I go back to Minnesota and my accent comes back 🤷‍♂️

...for a guy that always reminds me a little of Red Green, the 'Welcome back to the Lodge' opening line was fitting...

So glad Derek brought us along on another adventure with Tommy, Crane and the little humans that they are responsible for. The old Deere is running and mowing again.

A guys liking the second channel. Is there a third I don’t yet know about?

Should have Jessica record stuff like the trailer build.

Well this just made a fellers day! Stumbled across this channel with more videos! Just finished watching all your other content. I'll be dipped.

Holy Hannah....didn't know you had another cold snack channel...now it's just right up my ally...you're awesome....and the kids will eventually get some laughs tryin that hill on the cycles....

“It’s fairly noticeable” 😂😂

I thought I was a big VGG fan but I didn't even know this channel existed! 🤔

I LOVE THIS CHANNEL! Thank you Derek, family, and friends for showing us what's been a dying breed of "Americana!" "Low Life High Life go let's go!" "Down to Derek's farm where I wanna grow old!" "Take us DOWN, Derek!" That tune was playing in a fellers head while another feller was out ridin' fence!

I had one of these for several years, good mower, I also had a single stage snowblower for it. That worked great too.

A guy thought this channel was a cheap knockoff for a moment then realized no, this is the real deal!

Tire ject is magic one lonely farmer in New Jersey uses it all the time on his tires, dont change the tire till it's ourt of treads. It will hold

New Channel, Love It… Same Great Derek and now funny and cool family too. You all are the best, keep’er up!

Just found this channel! How did I not know? SUBSCRIBED!!!!

A guy just hooked his peepers on that 1086, what a classic old iron you guys got there. Need more viders on them there red 1's. I may be a gamin channels but i know how to work on them old red irons.....

It’s funny how when something has been taken off or apart, mods are done to make it faster to take off or apart next time lol

Pretty cool seeing a scout on your channel.

COOL !! Another shot of Derek and his adventures... Subbed and standing by ..

Deere made great garden tractors back in that era. This 316 is pretty similar to the 318. I still have a 318 myself that I have a 50 inch mower and the model 49 snow thrower for, it's a great machine. Still going nearly 30 years later. Hold on to that 316, they are built like tanks.

1086 - that was the deluxe tractor back when I was young - I got stuck driving the non-air conditioned 966.

The little blonde cutie at 3:30 is just what you and Jessica need, A baby sister for the boys and a daughter to keep you on your toes. Keep the videos coming and thank you for making my day a little brighter with your humor.

I have a 61 falcon 6 cylinder, ruined diff. What's special about it is that I gave it to my niece Cathy who was going to school to be a tech having to do with nascar. Loved racing and race cars, planned on fixing it. Before graduating she was diagnosed with cancer. She did graduate but the cancer took her shortly after. I can still get on her Facebook page and see the pictures, some have the falcon. There are drag racing pics, one of the cars reminded me of Tom's camaro. I don't have the means to do much with it, just sinking into the ground. If you could help it become a race car, I only ask its somehow dedicated to her. Thanks for all the videos Derek

The battery light means that the system isn't charging the battery. Something is still funky in the wiring most probably. You'll need to fix that or you'll get a dead battery real quick-like.

I noticed a guy can't help but see a task through to the end no matter how distracted he gets. I would probably give up. Guess that's why I watch. It's kinda fascinatin' that way.

Hello from Saskatchewan, Canada thanks for sharing.

You guys are having way to much fun!

Your brother's name sounds like a Klingon character's name from Star Trek. Krang the Conqueror.

Bailing wire would have fixed that chair right up.

Good intro. The frisbee floating by is a nice touch!

A guy seems to be finally getting the second channel up and running. I'll watch it!!

I’d like to see a mustie1 VGG crossover I know he watches the other channel he’s mentioned you before

My Hobo Freight only carries the older Tanya Harding 1000's, how'd you get your hands on a 2000?

Well I'll be dipped, I like it when the youtubes suggest new vice grip videos on a new channel 👌 I'm all caught up on the other channel and will be caught up on this one in just a bit haha

I love that 1086. Best looking tractors ever.
