The Official Farming Thread...

Yes, it’s pretty ridonkerous that the whole assembly is cheaper than just the teeth. An added bonus of this is that it’s a hell of a lot less time consuming & easier to just replace the whole enchilada.

I purchased one new one last fall before doing corn straw and used the teeth on the old one to fill in the gaps in the other wheels. Not again lol. What a pain in the arsh.

How much are you paying for new wheels?

Here is what I get…they are actually cheaper than a year ago.

I wish we had Fleet Farm here. We are too far south. We have Farm and Fleet. There are a few Theisens a bit northwest. The Fleetway stores were bought out by Orchliens years ago. They are now belly up. We have a few Farm King stores to the south. Also a few Huffmans Farm and Home to the south. Rural King is way down south.

They are kind of heavy for ceiling fans but hey: to each their own.

Well now I am thinking.................

I see you have one of those copycat axial flow machines

Here is what they should look like …..

Rain rain rain rain rain rain. I can believe I’m grumbling about rain for as dry as it has been the last two years but goodness we’re good for a bit now !! The 6” shop gutter was over flowing for a bit. Never seen that before !!


That makes sense as to why !!

I would gladly take it. We would get enough rain to keep from doing hay, but not enough to wet the ground good. Getting drier now with the guessers saying pop up showers, maybe.

Well 300 acres is a helluva lot more than a "little bit".

“You guys getting enough moisture so far this year ?”
“I’d say so. We have a decent looking stand of corn, a little sulfur deficient but you’ll have that when it’s wet, and a few mushrooms growing in the field.”
“You double cropping son of a gun !!”

Hay is cut.
