FoxrunFarms02 Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Used it to haul corn stalk bundles. I really need a machine but they're getting hard to come by and I'd have to sell Alot of bundles to pay for it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DT Fan Posted September 8 Author Share Posted September 8 Got the 10 reassembled. Took a picture of the dual hub, not sure how well you'll be able to see the repair. Both hubs had thread issues when I had them off years ago. This one got four inserts, not sure about the other, it may have got four also. You can see the paint marks circling them. Didn't know when I did this if it would hold up, so far, so good! 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IH Forever Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Harvest is starting early this year due to very dry conditions. This a poor farm but in a small area that received a little rain in August so seems better than expected. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Plow Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Helped Big Steve get ready for harvest this AM. Combine and heads out and back to home place. (After fixing a header carrier flat tire) Truck was still wearing 1978 Firestone bias ply front tires. They were starting to crack pretty bad, so dad sourced some conversion rims and decent used radials. I changed them this morning. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IHandJDman Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 I've been a bit under the weather the last couple days but I went to Dad's to see how it was going. My son and him were getting the 2nd round of seeding going. Son says it's better than planting corn. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dzldenny Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Pulled the duals off the 1206 and gave it a bath as well as my sons 460 utility. Then we took them out on a tractor ride fund raiser for one of the local American Legion chapters. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iowaboy1965 Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Raked hay with the 560 and picked up bales with the 400. Forgot to get pics of 400 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxrunFarms02 Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Plowed the pumpkin patch with the m and little wonder plow. It's a bit early and stuff was pretty green so it plugged up a little bit, and it was kind of dry for the furrows but just had to try the set up. I need to adjust and play around with the plow more it was set up for my b. 2nd gear mid throttle seemed like a good speed. The plow was set as deep as possible and the m didn't know it was there. A little genius might be in the works. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MT Matt Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 Mowed the only second cut field I have. Needed fertilizer but didn’t know if I would have irrigation water so I got what I got. The orchard grass got about 15” tall but it’s thick and all leaf so it will be really nice horse hay. Just not much. On the last round, the belt flew off the NH 479 and the upper pulley came apart. So I’ll have to load up the Super A and the sickle mower to finish off the field tomorrow. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMDFarmboy24 Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 Was able to scrape together a little bit of second cutting hay from the fields that needed trimmed. It's been fairly dry here up until recently. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DT Fan Posted September 13 Author Share Posted September 13 Got the 826 fired up today!! Yeahhhh! Amazing what an unrestricted fuel supply and a fresh battery will do. Now if I just had time to dig into why it won't move.... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacAR Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 Finished cutting my hay for the year today. The old 300 handles the haybine so well it isnt funny, and made pretty short work of the last bit. The only casualties today were a sickle section, a terrapin, and a winged chicken thief. I finally managed to snap a picture of the outfit and the old 94 Ford farm truck. Overall, a good day!

iowaboy1965 Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 No pictures but I loaded some fence posts and post driver in the loader bucket of the 400 and started putting posts in to run electric barb 2 ft inside the main fence on a section of pasture I've been meaning to do. Found a lot of multi flower rose bushes out there and some brush. Managed to snag my lil chain saw chain on the Main Fence a couple times. I see a file and some brush spray in my near future. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IHandJDman Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 Pulled some parts off the 1460 to ship and my son taught his middle sister how to drive the 1086. I don't see her farming anytime soon or ever, but it was good for her to learn. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
