    Sorry, it's been so long since I've been catching up on your channel, that looks like a fun fair. That was a pretty sweet building, I love the beams with the exposed hardware. How is your knee replacement doing, other than it being tired after four hours of being on it? I'm assuming well but had to check.

    • @watkinstreefarm6880

      Doing well man. I had my busiest weekend with the Tree farm and my knees did well. There was not anything that I could not do. On my feet 3 days and carrying Christmas trees all over the place. Things are good. As far as TH-cam, I haven't made a video since this one. I need to get back on the horse.

Yeah, I guess you had mentioned the knee giving you some issue after 4 hours at the fair, but that was almost three months ago, which means three more months of healing. Yeah, keep the videos coming. But sometimes it's good to take a break too.

    How deep were you running your tines here? Were those old tree roots that were turning up behind you or just sticks? Did you make any later deeper passes before planting your seedlings? What happens when you catch a live tree root with the tiller? This area was nice and open but if you are replanting in established areas near growing trees, it seems like hitting roots is inevitable. Must be nice not to have to deal with rocks!

    • @watkinstreefarm6880
      @watkinstreefarm6880 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Pretty sure they were roots. I went over it a couple times and the depth was as deep as the tiller will allow. Around 6-8 inches. Thanks for watching.

    Dude, you're killing me, this was a video I'm not sure I should have watched🤣🤣. I'm getting the same thing done, but right knee coming up on Sept 4. Total replacement, people ask what happened, I tell them I'm an active 50 year old with 70 year old knees. My left knee is fine for now, but I'm sure I'll be heading to replacement at some point in time in the future. Not sure I'll do a video, I'm a big baby and happen to be allergic to pain, so it would just be a video with a lot of whining and complaining😂😭. Happy to see a month later and you're doing good, your knee in a few of those pics looked freaking huge! They mentioned to me I could watch a video they have showing the whole knee replacement. I figured for sure that was the best way to get me to back out, so I elected to not view it. Had hernia surgery earlier this year, the best part was when I woke up and didn't even realize they had done the surgery yet, I still thought we were rolling towards the OR. I hope I have a similar experience. Glad to see you are doing so well Jeff! Getting old sucks.

    An air or electric impact breaks the 5/8 bolt loose without having to hold the motor. No need to remove battery. All can be done from underneath. If the pulley is stuck on the shaft the 3 tabs can be bent back slightly to get the belt on, just make sure to bend them back.
