I can't speak for all, but you're on tractors that most of us will never be able to afford and we are lucky enough that you happen to bring us along with you. My point is, if you were pushing marshmallows towards a big cup of cocoa, most of us would watch and enjoy! If your equipment is moving, we will watch! Stay safe!
Lol thanks for that! 👍 Good to have great fans
It seems like a year since Izzy and I'm replaying your pushing videos. So rich and full of character. I stream them in order :) Thanks Dennis :)
In Alaska we use to run our old cable lift D-8 CAT Dozers up and down the gravel runway at the radar sire base. The ridge on the track pads would cut up the ice so a landing airplane could use some brakes.
Sounds like a good enough plan
Thanks for the ride along. I like how you worked the angle wings on that blade to control where what you pushed went.
Thanks Chuck 👍 plenty of practice
Seeing you and your boy reminds me of sitting on grandpa's lap steering the D6 while he operated the foot pedals cuz I was too little to reach them. Your boy will remember things like that forever. Have a great day.
Good times!
Thanks Dennis, I always like your snow plowing videos(be it snow or ice). When I drove truck, I didn't have a problem with snow or ice(I would rather drive in snow though). My biggest problem was with the other people who were on the road. I wasn't afraid for myself, it was the "other people" I was afraid for and of. Not everyone uses common sense when they drive on snow or ice. They tend to forget that cars and pickups do not stop on a dime, or that semis can not stop on a dime. Anyway, thanks again for the video.
Your exactly right that's what concerns me about being out in snow in ice also. Some people are crazy in this stuff.
I realize it is kinda off topic but do anybody know a good place to stream new tv shows online ?
@Malachi Gus ehh lately I have been using flixportal. you can find it if you google:D -will
@Will Antonio thanks, I went there and it seems like a nice service =) I appreciate it !!
@Malachi Gus no problem =)
The National FFA Backing Champion puttin' that Rhino right where it belongs!!!
LoL
Your son is probably gonna be one of the greatest equipment operators that ever lived. He's already better than a few people I know. lol thanks Dennis
Lol I know he's going to be good just hope he keeps the interest in it.
24 hour weather news and named storms scares storms away.
Lol probably does
We have another approach in Sweden to take away clear ice or hard compacted snow. Usually we use ice ripper edges f e Olofsfors Sharqedges P300. You can have them on ordinary plow or on separate blade in back or even a "underbite" under truck/tractor that's working like a grader. After one pass with ice ripper the ordinary blade with straight edge take away the remaining ice/snow.
We use the same for maintaining gravel roads. A lot of forestry trucks uses this "underbite" too in summertime.
Have a good winter season, Dennis.
Thanks for the info I'm going to try to look up this underbite thing.
@@DLHFarms For example: One company with good rep makes this (only for trucks)... mahlers.se/en/mahlers/products/grader-blades.html There is YT videos on them also.
Thanks 👍
What a mess all that ice, think you did the right thing scraping it off the best you could.
Polar air is moving out of here today,we are going to hit a high temp of 14 today. Woke up to -27 yesterday Windshield temp was -45.
Sunday supposed to be in the 40's with freezing rain, What a rollercoaster ride this winter.
Take Care and be Safe Dennis 👍
Yeah we are going to hit the 70s next week. What is going on? Lol
@@DLHFarms The Bible speaks about abnormal weather as one of the signs of the end of the age. ☺
That's true. We are definitely closer than we were.
I've heard it said that " plowing on icy surfaces is like a cat trying to bury s### on a marble floor",....I think there's something to that.
The other bad thing ( among many ) with these darned ice storms, is that it play havoc with power lines and trees too. Not good for anything, I guess is an understatement.
I would say, Dennis, that you'll have some real help in about another 8 to 10 years in plowing etc. around your home at least.
Yep we didn't look power at our house thankfully but several people did in out community. Yes I'm looking forward to the day I can say, Dorsie go out and plow the driveway with the Deere please.
@@DLHFarms Ice storms 'creep up on you' to. nasty stuff.
Dorsie will be there a lot quicker than you think,....I'm sure you've heard that a dozen or more times.
I hear it every day, but I know its true.
I watch the news & vids of course, of all the places who keep getting wind and ice storms and wonder why in the world all those power lines are above ground...
@@agrisea.original I've often thought that, and yet I have not heard any words on why not!
Thanks Dennis I sure enjoyed watching you clean the ice no problems and that is some great plough.
Thanks Wayne!
Awesome bud. Love seeing lil man w you. Reminds me of mine when he was that age
He I such a great little helper
I figured that little jd would just sit on the ice and spin. Did better than I thought.
I was thinking the same thing lol
I was impressed really, it did pretty good for what it is.
When your windows get icey ,take you a spray bottle of rubbing alcohol 70% or stronger and spray your windows and ice will melt of of whatever you spray it on . I have deiced door handles key locks wiper blades and much more useing alcohol. Works very good .
Thanks 👍
You got one nice setup there. Have fun "playing with it" LoL!!!!
Lol 👍
Got Sand? Sprinkle that around, gives you traction that you can sweep up later.
👍
Hey Dennis good job on clearing the roads and parking lots. Always enjoy watching u work. Your son is really getting big, he will soon be big enough to drive for u. Ice is the worst. Snow would have been better. We got 6 inches snow on ground in Denver God bless stay safe.
Thanks Ronald won't be long he will be bigger than me. Lol
Good job Dennis, that back metal blade scrapes the ice very good!!!
,👍
Hi Dennis. I bet you will be glad when hay season comes around.
Yes I will! Lol
I like the blade cam angle. I thought it did pretty good.
It did better in some places than it did in others. But overall it did well
Lol the best part was watching your buddy! He like to plow!
Oh yeah he loves tractors
even at 15 or 20 degrees. if you can break the ice up and expose some dark ground underneath the sun will do much of the work for you. it just means you will be back to push it again
Yeah it actually broke up later and cleared up on it's own after we pushed them.
Would have liked to see you in a road grader I did a bunch of winter work in one lol.
My dad is the grader man I'm not much on them I prefer my tractors in the snow and dozers in the dirt.
Dennis it’s a shame you didn’t have chains on all round, they may have broken thru the ice to make it a little easier to remove, but you can only do so much Dennis good luck with it
Maybe, maybe not
Ice is no fun. Good video. Anxious to see the t5 chip tuning video. I have t4 105 and been thinking about tuning, I believe same engine.
Yes it's the same engine and they can turn it up. The video is coming but it's going to be a while longer waiting on some clips from the guy that fixed me up with it.
looks like you got some of it any thing was better than nothing then you can go to the school and play with it lol
Lol 👍
Luray, VA got about 2 in of snow. Not much ice other than refreeze.
You could see him running for joy!! Lol
Oh yeah! Lol
That little guy will remember that all of his life being with daddy.
I hope so!
That ice looks like a pain in the butt to deal with instead of the snow
Yes, yes it is
Great video Dennis!! This winter sure has kept you busy!
Yes it has!
Buddy we getting snow as we speak finally ! We got about 5” so far yippie lmao 😂 Glad to see you got a new camera lenses also ,, finally making tractors green 😎 their natural color..
Bahahaha green hahah
Great video thanks for sharing don't get detention how your at school lol
Lol thanks for the advice
May not be exciting as pushing snow around, but I still enjoyed the vid.
Ok great 👍
You did great with what you had to deal with , ice is the worst most variable material to work with , perhaps if you had the chains on the big tractor it would have broken the surface .
Thanks, the chains may have helped but not sure it would have been worth the extra cost to run them.
@@DLHFarms yup that part of the math you do when your trying to get the job done.You did well, no doubt about it .How the cold been in your area this last week ?
It got down to 8 degrees about 0 with the wind chill. I've seen it way colder here.
Just don't let them see you playing with it. 😂😂
Got that right! Lol
Aww sweet
👍
I liked the video. I think the CEO of DLH farms should have driven the little John Deere more though. You live in some beautiful country son
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
Lol he is definitely the boss I'm just along for the ride.
Don't get caught 'playing with it' at the school. lol
No kiddin, lol
We're dealing with the same here in Nova Scotia. Great video as always.
Good luck to ya
You every go over to oak island?
We have gone over and looked around, it's an hour drive from me. Haven't taken the tour yet but we are planning on doing it this summer.
You as well enjoy your videos keep up the great work, cheers.
Awesome I love the curse of oak island show. Blows my mind how much money those guys are blowing for something that may not even be there.
If you're in a bind, the fertilizer spreader and fertilizer will melt ice as well...
Cool deal good to know
Job security, you'll be back in the Spring to spread the gravel.
Lol yeah maybe
Good video have a good day and stay safe
Thanks Greg you do the same!
Nice work 👌.
Thanks!
Great work as always!
Thank you
That man was hard up for some candy
No kiddin lol
Funny how the weather people never say oops.....well that wasn't what we thought. Sorry about that.......
Oh it's fine I just don't like ice. Lol
Funny thing is of every job I ever worked if I'd done the wrong thing as often as weather forecasters do I woulda gone under financially. Yet those people keep coming to work. Perhaps if more a them were to actually *get FIRED perhaps they'd get their forecasts RIGHT!* Ya think? I always give you a *LIKE Dennis cuz you're a family man & families raising kids helps KEEP AMERICA STRONG.* Farmers and RANCHERS are a YUGE PART a that.
Thanks so much for that! I love my family!!!
Howard Fortyfive I’ve taken a meteorology class. There’s so much that goes into it and still so much we don’t know. It really is just guessing. No shit. There’s few things we know and our prediction models aren’t great past 1 week. 3 days is pretty good but any more and it’s a wash.
Maybe they should preface the forecast with this is our best Precision guesstimate based on everything we don't know." They're just like the other professions, they are "practicing." Lol
Need a ice cutting edge for it for you're push blade
Be nice I guess
we got snow once this yr but it didn't even accumulate an inch , we have mild winters . My daughter is already 18 , the yrs go by fast so take every minute you get with him . I think i already asked once but do you put the blade directly on the asphalt ?
Yes blade goes on the asphalt.
good morning bud. the roads are really bad here in West Virginia. no ice yet.
I was up that way a couple weeks ago
I spit coffee all over my screen!! You got to Nancy's candy co. You said that you had nasty Windows, because there was junk all over them!! Where I'm from, junk is a euphemism for a male private area! And sometime indicating the excess baggage from the back side of both male and female!
You can only imagine when you said you had junk on your windows, WHAT IMAGE FLASHED IN MY MIND!
I'm still rolling!! Tell him to get his junk off your tractor, you got work ta do!! ;-P
Lol! I figured it was because i was going to the school to play with it.
DLH Farms...that always gets me in trouble, too!! Lol
Hahaha
Put on a pair of ice skates and watch it melt right before your eyes.
Looks like you need salt.there must be a nice smell there with all that candy.
I didn't smell a thing. Lol
thats where you need the loader with a bucket to break up and scrap that ice off or a back drag blade just a comment from north of the border.
Yep I needed something a little different but it all worked out in the end
Bet ya can't do a donut on that tractor!
I bet I can
Am glad we hadn't got anything like that here yet in bama, an I hope we don't either
Yeah I hope you don't either
How about this takes old cutting edge and cut every 2” put slides in it I see in Norway that what they do for ice try it and see if it works. God Bless and please be safe too ice in nothing to play with
Thanks Bob
I see you got the Tonka Toy out...
Lol that's about what it is
Dennis, where did you get your blade? All I see are in Canada. How does it attach to the tractor?
Enjoy your videos!
Bought it for from Franklin Welding in Rocky Mount VA. They get them from a distributor called Cummins and Bricker and they get them from HLA out of Canada. It normally takes a month or two to get one in.
5:15 the speed would be cool when you use your big new holland.
Yeah It would, it's something I'm toying around with but it has more draw backs than advantages.
How about showing the controller for that plow is it a handheld or something else just wondering how you operate it Thanks
This should answer your question .th-cam.com/video/zZXThfZGsbU/w-d-xo.html
@@DLHFarms Thanks that helps I'm thinking about buying a tractor or a wheel loader to push big parking lots with tractor seems to be cheaper way to go but most guys lease big wheel loaders for the winter and they want a arm and a leg for the lease so i was thinking about buying a 75 to 100 hp cab tractor any thoughts on this?
You need at least a 100hp big frame tractor to handle the snow wing. Minimum 14,000 pound machine.
@@DLHFarms OK Thanks
Those kinda jobs suck. You try your best to do a good job but everything is again you! We had rain last night, then it froze followed by just enough snow to cover the ice! Nearly ended up on my arse!😂😂
Oh no, be careful out there!
You stay safe as well mate, we don't have not as bad as you.
Thanks 👍
Another great video man. Not wishing snow on you guys but maybe next time. I still don't know how you guys deal with that type of westher. We get snow flurries down here and the state shuts down and everyone losses their minds and anyone on the roads drives off into the ditch. When you said "go to the school and play with it" I spit my coffee every where lol. Just subscribed
Lol! Sorry about your coffee but thanks for the sub 👍
@@DLHFarms No sir don't be sorry it was funny man love the videos
👍
Hey there I watch every video u do way before u was building the barn out back but I was noticing on the t5 u never shift gears now is that tractor hydrostatic drive where u just push the pedal for front and push for backwards
No it's power shift, you use buttons to change gears, and a lever on the steering column to change directions. Thanks for watching 👍
Nice job!!
Looking for 7' landscape rake near Patrick any thoughts?
I deal with Franklin Welding in Rocky Mount VA. Sometimes I deal with James River equipment in Martinsville.
Walk in the snow where there's traction.
I did until I couldn't any more it's paved in front of the barn.
Hay this my name Gavin
Hay Gavin
i agree with your thoughts about your winged blade ! What brand is it? i like it
It's an HLA snow wing. Made In Canada by Horst loader Attachments.
And was wondering if your tires are loaded ?
Yes all four are loaded.
Thanks i figured you did didn't know if that help or work against you on ice
Hey Dennis, man you guys get some nasty weather I thought we got it bad. Anyway this may be a crazy question but I have noticed in a lot of ur videos u have a camper. My wife and I have a group of friends we camp with all the time. Would u have any suggestions on nice places to camp out your way? Also I have been meaning to ask what engine is in your t-5. Anyway thanks again for your videos I watch them everyday.
Well, we camp at lake wood in Myrtle Beach, Ashland ATV resort in WV, the Stare Fair of WV, and occasionally we go to Fort Chiswell Va. There is a campground right near us hear in Meadows of Dan but never stayed there, my thought is if your that close to home why are you camping. LoL. The T5 has a FPT (Fiat power Train) 3.4 liter 4 cylinder engine and it's 120 hp before I turned it up 25 more.
Ha ha ha I hear u buddy we love to travel. We are from southwest Ohio and have traveled a lot of places to camp. I have a 30 ft wildwood that sleeps pretty good. It sure isn’t home lol.I have just noticed the scenery where u do all ur hay bailing and it’s beautiful. we haven’t been out east to much. Just thought I would ask your view on places to go out ur way. I commented on ur kubota review video a while back, and buddy kubota service is terrible where I’m at to. But anyway Dennis thank you for putting up the videos of hay and excavating. I have learned a lot from them.I do excavating with my grandpa a lot but love to see ur side of it. Also it blows my mind to see how much work u do by yourself in the hay business. I did that when I was a lot younger, and man it was rough. My hats off to you buddy. If I lived closer I would come help you bud.
Thanks Zach 👍
I hate ice. Nothing good about it except to keep your beverage cold in summer
Lol I agree with that
Maybe dragging a SHEEP'S FOOT would work….but I have never seen it done.
Dennis, question, does a Puckett fellow do your business repeaters/radios?
Yep he sure does
@@DLHFarms I thought so! We're both amature Radio operators and I knew he also does business repeaters. My call is KG4GZM. .
Cool deal are you local to where he lives?
@@DLHFarms Yessir. I live in Hillsville. He and I grew up together and, until my work schedule got in the way, were in the same radio club. ( Briarpatch)
Cool deal 👍
Do what ever it takes to make the money
Lol sometime
Glad that ain't here,a fall on Ice fighting a house fire started my physical problems,15 ft off a Ice Covered ladder rung,landed on my feet and destroyed my knees
Oh no! I've fought for in those conditions before it's not fun when your frozen so stiff to can't move
nice vid :)
Thanks 👍
@@DLHFarms ur welcome :)
Dennis, Does VDOT have a long term contract for y'all to do snow removal for multiple years at a time. Looks like alot of overhead in snow removal specific equipment to risk a year to year contract and being under big after the 1st season or is there just no competition for it. If you cant do to privacy between the farm and VDOT that is understandable. Thanks
VDot will only do 1 year contracts but I think they are required to let you sign up as long as you meet their criteria. Another words to make it fair they have to sign anyone up that wants to push as long as they are willing to play by VDOT's rules.
@@DLHFarms thanks for the response. That def makes it easier on a business owner to justify spending the money on the equipment.
hey your little john deere how do you like it being hydro do you do any tilling or some kind of work with it that would be hard pulling how dose it do i have a tractor that is a gear drive and looking at a hydro tractor to add to my collection the gear tractor is 2wd and the hydro is 4wd and would be on the tilling and plowing and i do a lot of that each year please help when you can
A hydro on a small tractor is great for most things, tilling works great. Never tried plowing but if it's in a garden that's been plowed before I don't see a problem with it.
@@DLHFarms thank you for takeing the time to give me this info really helps me out thinking about pulling the trigger on this tractor and useing it for tilling and plowing then use the gear 2 wd tractor for bush hogging work where it would shine better
What size tractor is it?
@@DLHFarms it is a yanmar 1510 d guessing it to be about the same as the 1025 i also think it was built during the time when yanmar was building a lot of the compact tractors for deere tractor has a lot of deere green and yellow on it
you need some wd40 for that seat
Your are exactly right about that.
Most people would walk on the snow not on the ice!!!!
I did walk on the snow beside the driveway didn't you hear the crunching. But it's all paved once you get close to my barn doors I had no choice but to get on the ice that's when the crunching stopped and the sliding started.
Ever use heated wiper blades on your tractors or trucks? www.everblades.com
Got one on the 6030 now
Next time try not to plow the drive way and let the ice stay on top of the snow
Ok what fur?
The ice will take to stick to the snow not the driveway
Looks pointless to scrape throw some salt down and call it a day boss
Common sense isn’t that common anymore.
Not really
Damn apparently my common sense didn’t kick in on my spelling! Had to go back and adjust lol
Lol that's ok I have the same problem
He was just mad that he was not going to get his candy. Sounds to me like he was seriously lacking in the common sense department!!!!!
Lol I really wish I had filmed the conversation and you would have seen how right you are.
