Love ur new intro

Pick yourself up a smaller generator that you can use to run the block heater on the tractors and the trucks for when it's cold and you don't have electricity readily available

Speaking or "jammin" every farmer I ever worked for forbade you listening to the radio while combining. I was told if you want music listen to what the machine is playing. That way you stay ahead of problems. Not sure but there is a way to loop a hydraulic hose into the system via the remote outlets that will allow the hydraulic fluid to flow through warming it up. Maybe someone else listening will better explain. I am in Ga where we don't have those issues. It was 60 degrees here today. Until you get shelter for the combine I suggest some big heavy duty tarps. They are better than leaving it out in the weather. Good luck with the finish up...

i bin thinking it , but i will now say it Duffy you need to take care ( clean ) your equipment a bit better . i know your running solo , but still a clean machine is already half of the job done , i love you , i love the channel , i love the content ( no homo ) . keep it clean , is half of the work for the machine . 👍

keep that corn you cleaned out of the combine, feed it to your calves, just a bit at a time, 5LB./ day between the 3 of them, you dont have to grind it.

Just so people you don't live in farm country know, there are a lot of farmers who have a million dollar's worth of equipment setting outside all year.

2 of the most important things to keep under a roof in my book are a combine & a grain cart, especially if your wanting to keep the hoppers from rusting out. Thankfully I have enough room for all my equipment except augers & the hay rake.

If you ever come back to New Zealand it would be cool to have a meet n greet or something like that. Think some people here would be very interested to hear your story of where you came from to where you are now and how KZfaq have helped you progress in your farming career. Keep it up!

I sold the 24 robots to that farm Chris and remember your input👍

Wow 😊 15000ac crazy

Strait pie

Hello, just want to say I enjoy you video clips ,I must say you have come a long way in just a year, you are living my dream of having a small working farm, keep up the great job ,can't wait to see what this new year has install for you.

Keep working and you'll get your nice shed for all your equipment .

We did custom harvesting in the 1980s with a lot of John Deere 8820's most of those covers and guards we left off because we wanted to see the belts running in case something happened. Never affected the running of the combine. Also never had the cover on the fan.

Chris, have you thought to use Armor All, or a similar product to extend the life of radiator fan shroud? and other plastics under the hood

Duffy consulting with Yanko on repairs is awesome. Yanko sits there and listens to every word. I love that dog. LOL

That's how we started the 59-TD 6 IH- salamander under it for a few hours, then pull start it with the MF 178 & XT190 Allis- because it didn't have a starter on it! Had a massive snowstorm maybe 70-71, The township hired anybody that had a dozer to open back roads, ran the TD6 3 days straight, day & night, couldn't shut it off, had to tow start it! every so often somebody would bring fuel, switch operators, and off again! And the worse part was the snowmobilers, you'd be backing up, and a dozen snowmobilers come along and drop down in where you were working! Good times! + we had to take care of a few hundred head of cows! Milked 120!

We built a straight pipe for our 7720 back in the day, it sounded awesome and ran great. Just have to weld in a small pipe for the air cleaner

I hope you got that 8 acers done, and have a good busy winter season

We all know that you do not know how to give up Chris. Keep rocking out and getting it done . Love to see you progressing every day 🤙🤙🤙🤙

I would like offer 2 suggestions that have worked for me. Paint a yellow stripe on top center of your feederhouse. Paint a matching stripe on the top rail of your cornhead. Makes it easy to line up everytime. Also if you think your hydro is getting worn and weak, stop adding Lo-Vis. Add regular HyGard. It's slightly thicker. I even added some 80-90 to get the last yesr out of my 6620 hydro.

Chris, I really like the new "beginning" to your channel. I'm north of Boston (Newburyport) and we are getting this snow tonight. I hope you feel that you've had a successful farming period in 2023. We're all pulling for you! Happy New Year bud!

This is something i was gonna try this year, wildlife feed but i want to try it with heirloom corn for a marketing twist and higher protein level. Cant wait to see how this turns out.

Keep the faith brother. I wish you the best of luck finishing corn harvest. When things freeze it becomes more fun

Those are my favorite wire strippers. Worth every penny.

Great job Chris enjoyed it thank you time to get it off the ground and finish thank you

Hey chris glad you got the package i sent . keep up the awsome content I hope that its goes well for ya . can't wait to see the mack all done big 👍👍👍👍

As always love your videos I think the next light needs to go on one of the silos out back where you're putting all your equipment just a idea stay warm looks like you guys are getting a lot

Chris put your pto on that will warm your oil and then your hydrilic will be faster

We use to have 6620 and we took the muffler off and ran it with a straight pipe. You need to keep an eye on the shaft couplers on the final drive shaft think there are four of them between the final drives and the transmission. The splines in the couplers will strip out and then you can free wheel down a hill front or back words. Not a fun thing to do.

You gotta do what you gotta do only you know

Good tongue action during the video

Edwards, Brothers, Alamo, Indiana, they have plenty of green combine parts

🚜

You didnt hear me screaming at you that the wire was in front of the belt. lol Im looking forward to the harvest content tomorrow I hope all went well. From Kentucky

I would consider starting plugging everything diesel in from now on.

When you become a BTO farmer and Robert is running operations, you should take a long holiday back to NZ.👍

K And J surplus for any combine parts you need

you remind me of my wife see waits to the last minute to do anything she knoews should be done

Check all states ag parts to see if they have a used fan cover. They have huge salvage yards all over the country

Getting stick for doing prep🤔🤷🏻‍♂️. Keep it going Chris, you don’t give up. Hope you got corn wrapped up and then the Mack will soon be hauling 💩. New Zealand is an awesome country, a place where agriculture is appreciated by the population and not vilified.

Really Chris Rookie move Get on it hope its lesson learned

😂😂 you asked if we are learning... yes I'm learning, what did you learn, Chris 😂

That feederhouse chain is concerning lol. Had one explode on me one year. Was not fun

Chris , Vevor got some stuff on their website. I will be ordering something soon.

Need to get you some solder sticks.

there's a place in arkansas that might have that cover they have a tractor and combine grave yard

Keep up the good work Chris your doing a awesome job and my dream tractor I want is a 7520 yours is a beast

So many mice 🐁 have eaten green combine wiring causing mega headaches and bucks I would go with mice baiters before you experience it .

Take the corn you have on the tarp and feed it to your beefers

You should have cleaned it before it froze, same with the repairs. You wait till the coldest to do it. Seems your always a day late and a dollar short. You are your own worst enemy. Do hope you got your corn done. You'll learn if you don't go broke first .

Been thinking your tailing elevator is the top drive sprocket wore out the one inside your elevator. Ps I have picked last years corn In march before on 6 inches of ice so it will happen be patient.

We had a few raccoons come out of our combine after storage...... lol

I saw you in a Friday parts add

that 7520 is awesome.whhat a beauty.ddoes the A/C still woorks on that horse?

😮

It was the Amish guy's idea to farm in the mud . Lol

Here in NZ can see the sea from my house haha

The wires on the wrong side of the belt

Why don’t you give the corn to the calves

straight pipe that beast!

Is it possible to put an upgraded hydraulic pump on the 7520?

Are you concerned about the corn falling over with the heavy snow in forecast?

When will Norm be going to the Steakhouse

Did you start feeding silage to norman and his 2 buddies?

What state are you farming in now

Don’t use ether on a motor I t seems to need it every time to start

Would it be easier to plant that back hill top to bottom rather that side to side?

Would you be interested in an oil fired furnace for your shop???????let me know my mother has one she wants to get rid of

the bank owns a farm

Why does your farm need two dumpsters

can i please have a toy tour

Time to make a second channel to farm youtube views. The Duffy cold start channel with nothing but shorts. #duffycoldstart #coldstartwithduffy

WHy didn't you prep all this when you weren't going to combine? Just seems daft that you have to do it last minute.

BANK owned your farm if you PAY ??
