I wish folks that have never fabricated anything could understand how much work you've put into this. Did real good job guys. Best of luck with everything.
Between your dad and his sons you guys have welding, fabricating, and electrical design and wiring covered what can’t you guys manufacture. God blesses a hard working man who takes care of his family, worships God and you my friends are blessed. Show the world real men still seek God in our crazy time. Keep up the hard work and show the next generation things aren’t just given to them.
Great project. Most farm equipment designs come from farmers. One suggestion. That white shaft looks like it could use a center pillow bearing. I know shake is the name of the game. Anxious to see it all painted. Good luck on your medical.
You guys are amazing; showing us how to just do It! Most importantly providing information relating to the positive qualities of people who say “just make it happen!” RD Smith here from Big Sky Country - Great Falls, MT. Watching the three Welkers construct and repair in your shop is priceless. I’ve watched your series of videos over and over again just to pick up tips! Yep, you’ve motivated an 80 year old to break out the Miller welder and plasm cutter and start just “doing it.” I have a Deere 1025R. To make the small Cat One tractor more suitable for my needs, here outside of Great Falls, I started building, in my garage, attachments from tool, fuel, and spray trailers to trailer ramps, and restoring my 18 foot vehicle trailer. Yep, you three are motivators. Now, only if you could get the price reduced on steel, red dye diesel and gasoline, my remaining years would be perfect. My wife of 58 years would greatly appreciate that too; keeping me occupied in the garage instead of hanging out in the kitchen! Many thanks to you and family! God Bless David
I don't know why but I had a HUGE smile on my face the entire video. Love to see the ingenuity and ability of a farmer. People think farmers are "simple" or that anyone can do it... not so much! Keep it up!!!
Hey Guys love watching you Fab. We have those Jack legs odour trailers in uk. We inserted a undersized piece off box inside. So slides out to create an extension. Sacred with a tractor pin. Less winding and you a longer leg for leveling. We also added the nut like other comments so can be lifted with a drill. Keep Fabbjng.
Welkers...your channel is always, always positive. Problems are not negatives to the three of you. They are challenges you work on and fix. Thank you for the fine example you give us.
Hi from Australia, you are receiving hundreds of comments. The positive feedback, praise and prayers you are receiving are well deserved. Scott, you have done a wonderful job, as you mentioned in a previous vid you are self-taught, what a great achievement. With your father Bob and Nick what a team. From one farmer to another we cop a lot of flack trying to feed the world, but what a satisfying life (Not job)
You guys did a real good job on that cleaner it takes a lot of imagination and craftsmanship to build something like that looks like it is going to do the job you need I am sure you saved a lot of money by making it your self
How about using some piece of soft wood under those jacks? One of things I do in my work is to build scaffold around buildings and we always put piece of wood under whole construction because metal itself is not good on friction on the ground especialy when you have gravel or something similar there. Just use piece of wood to split load on the ground. It should limit tear and wear of any mechanical parts.
Well done guys this build has brought back memories of when my dad my brother and myself worked on the farm building a new milking system and many other projects so good to do things together cheers from OZ
Looks like a great piece of nicely designed and thought out kit. Thing I like most though about so many of your projects is that you're always working together as a family.
Scott glad u got that picture of him cleaning the shop n remember if he fires u he has to clean the shop all the time Glad the cleaner works n sorry nick got hurt yall be safe
Perhaps the peas are splitting because they are colliding on a steel surface inside the air chambers. Perhaps line the inside chambers with something less dense than steel.
Nick, You know better than working in the weight room without a spotter. The cleaner is a thing of beauty in my eyes. Remember it took Thomas Edison 73 experiments before he got his first light bulb to burn more than a minute. Great job Bob on the wiring of the machine. And Kudos to the brothers for their fabrication skills. Your Cleaner will be the talk of the town diners.
Hey Legarms, cut the handles off of the 4 leveling jacks and weld nuts on the crank shafts. Then you can use a drill to raise and lower them much easier/ faster. You could weld a socket onto one of the handles so that it can still be done manually. Just a thought. Great work.
Thanks for showing and saying something about the motor start startup procedure. I think if you had all the breakers on with the main breaker off and then turned on the main that would be more instantaneous surge than what that main could hold. It works and runs under load with how you have it, very sweet, and grats.
Just a thought.... on your leveling jacks, zip cut the crank handles off and weld on a 3/4" nut, then you can utilize a cordless impact to adjust the levelling jacks ... a time saver. Great job fellows!!
Awesome 👏🏻 I love building things for myself instead of buying them (not on this scale though). You could attach a couple of spirit levels to the trailer frame, one across and one lengthways to get the machine level. Also, what about cutting the jack handles off and weld nuts on instead, that way you could use a power tool to wind them up and down. An old socket on the end of the cut off handle would mean you could use it manually too.
great to see that your guys are getting some moisture wish i could seen some your way we are getting a lot mostly in ice form. awesome to see the clean in action. great video and have a blessed day.
I followed you as you built that pea cleaner. It looks like it works real good always have some minor modifications with building something but you guys did a great job on that my hats off to you guys
The cleaner is working great. Lifting weights - my days of bench pressing 280 - 300+ pounds days are done for a while also. Then I'm your dad's age, would have to start light and work my way back up to that. Hope it heals and you are ok. Hope the crew / family and you are doing well. Take care - be safe and God Bless.
Gday Welkers! I hope everything is looking better this year. Idea for snow pusher. Old positrack rubber tracks. Cut to desired width. Tip up on edge make frame to mount and to self level during use. Perfect for cleaning. Levelling snow. Etc.
I popped a bicep tendon from dumbbells. Had to have have surgery and PT. That was 5 years ago. This week I am finally back up to the same weight that popped it. I took it easy and made sure there wasn't any pain. The pain months before it popped was a warning. I listen to those warning now.
Nothing is better than a Bosch pump. Unless you have exsperienced it, when you build something so custom and specific to your operations and needs, when it finally works and does what you wanted it to, theres very few feelings in the world like it after family. You finally get to stand back and watch your creation/ equiptment work and realize that the hands and minds of those involved are what built it. When I was a kid I would look at my grandpa's hands and think about all the things he had done, built, modified with his hands and every scar and broken and crooked finger told a piece of the story of each thing he did. It's amazing what we can accomplish when we want to.
Looks like the auger drive shaft could use a center bearing, otherwise, an amazing test run. Machines that complex usually need a lot of tweaking, but you guys seem to have nailed it. Cracked stuff usually needs an optical puffer system to clean up the product, and they're expensive and touchy. I think you have a winner!
love it when a plan comes together :) :) :) :) .. I own a 85 k sq foot auto body shop in MA ..we have about 90 cars right now ( winter lol ) my guys invent stuff every day to make the job perfect , I'm 65 years old and learn something new every day ..gotta love it . ( I am not kidding , I do learn a new trick every single day , as small as it might seem ) .. that's why I love watching you guys show ..( and the other guys as well :) :) :)
💪👍👌🤩 AWESOME BUILD .... Always easy to fine tune with COMMON SENSE ENGINEERING like the little adjustment in the feed hole there! GOD BLESS - KEEP SAFE - HEAL SENSIBLY - 🙏🙏 😍😍😍😍😍
You gave the game away on an Instagram live feed weeks ago but it is much better said in edited video, Leg Arm's face when they are about to switch it on for the first time is priceless, the visible stress, but I have to say congratulations to you all for creating another awesome machine.
I always loved doing the bench press but then i got too busy farming. I had to roll the bar off a few times when i was lifting by myself,so hope you heal up real quick. The pea hulls make good cattle feed too.
Glad to see Leg Arms put some protection on that shaft I was really worried about Nick getting fascinated by it spinning, and have an O Shiny moment and try to grab it!
First, cant the discharge chute from the shaker down further so the cleaned peas don't back up so much. Second, get rid of the plastic window as will get scratched easily and replace with glass. Third, tilt the top of the glass out so reflected light is sent downward and your vision inside is clear. Might make it smaller also. Nice job guys!
I think you guys are doing awesome on the build. I may be a day late and a dollar short, but an idea for the jacks to speed up raising and lowering could be to cut the handle and weld on a nut, then use a cordless drill to raise and lower. We do that on RVs.
Great job on the cleaner project. I have one suggestion to throw out there. On the air output of the pre-cleaner, fab up a cyclone dust collector. You'd be able to catch a significant portion of the chaff and gravity feed it into the dockage auger. It'll help reduce the ground mess.
Great job. My father had a blacksmith and welding shop in Northern Colorado and built custom equipment for his farmer customers. the work you do in your shop brings back fond memories. The only thing that I might suggest would be to add a carrier bearing to that white shaft in the back of the unit removing the wobble out of the shaft to increase shaft and bearing life. Back in the 50sfew farms had wonderful shops like you do and the farmers could farm very well but couldn't weld worth a darn. After you paint your cleaner, you need to ad a logo saying designed and built by Welker farms. I love your videos and your Christian Families. God Bless you all
Make a star wheel tool to spin those trailer jacks. Weld another straight on the handle and cut some slots in a socket. Much faster to get them down to the ground
looks like it was working fine ..I would like to see you add guards around the belt areas and the around the augern drive on the front just for darm safeety1...nice job overall and keep the vids coming!
Great to see someone making rather than buying, might want to have some way of locking the shaker deck in position for when you are transporting the cleaner to prevent it getting damaged 👌
Been there, done that. Made a seed hopper on back of fertilizer trailer. Used a brushed seed augur . Worked great for soybean seed. Gotseed corn in big bags Big tractor on hydraulic seed augur. BIG MISTAKE. Would NOT move 1 ;ag of seed corn Ended up using 5 gallon pail to load planter. Ugh! Corn would jam that TIGHT! Steel augur are noted for cracking seed. Check that for cause. Had neighbor said; CAN'T LIVE long enough to make all the mistakes.i accepted that as a challenge.
Hey guys why I used to have my 28 foot RV I added 4 RV level indicators to corners of camper to make leveling quick and easy....all for less than 40 bucks
I was going to suggest the same thing. But didn’t want to sound like a know it all. To the genuses that built and designed it. Because the men and machine are just that genus.
We use dollar coin size bubble levels in our coach for leveling…one on each corner and possibly one on each side on center line should help. Cheap and small enough to stay out of the way.
Might need a spiral mill to take out splits, thats what we used at our plant. Size of seed didnt matter, splits fell straight down, just suggestion, worked for us. Cleaned 12000 bu per year.
When augering soybeans we used a seed treatment pump and put a little bit of water with the soybeans to keep them from splitting and cracking you should try that.
Looking great. Much cheaper than a commercial cleaner. I should come look at yours I would like to figure out how to get more movement in my screener. Maybe a different vibratory unit and change the hanger system. That capacity in your cleaner looks excellent.
Awesome creativity and design with your grain/seeder cleaner trailer. Have you thought of removing the handles on the 4 jacking legs and welding on a nut or bolt so you can use a drill or impact wrench to raise/lower the jacking legs? Have a wonderful and blessed day.
If you use a cross slot screen it will work much better then a round screen for removing broken seed and it will leave the small seed go with the large seed. You are running the seed to fast for the capacity of your cleaner. If you slow it down a little you have a much better seed seperation
Grain Cleaner is looking awesome. Different subject, try using windex on shop walls and ceiling. I work in a coal mine and you'd be surprised at what it takes off.
Awesome build. It's amazing how our workouts change with the years. I started working my biceps thru "curls"; however, it was my abdomen that got bigger. LOL.
Just need two level eyes one for front to back level and one for side to side. We had twhem on our camping trailer years ago, so easy to level the trailer in just a short couple of minutes.
I think it was George Perrard who said "I love it when a plan comes together" on the A team TV series. It looks like your plan is coming together. Thanks for sharing. Happy subscriber 😊.
Just an idea for the legs. Years ago there used to be a leg you could get that had an adjustable sleeve in it. Pull a pin, adjust it to the hight you need the you will only have to crank it up a little I stead of what ever length of time it's taking you now. Cut the feet of the legs and weld them to a smaller ID box tube that will slide inside the leg, drill and put in a pin. 20 min of fab work will save you time else where... keep up the work!!!🙏🙏
I wish folks that have never fabricated anything could understand how much work you've put into this. Did real good job guys. Best of luck with everything.
As a fellow fabricator I notice and appreciate the amount of work you put in. Awesome job guys!
Ki
Wow, has taken months of work, and I am sure in some cases, reworking. Good to see the results, am sure Leg Arms has called it by many names... 😆
Appreciate it, we are thrilled with how it turned out and already have many plans for improvements
Thar machine Is amazing. To just fine tune it at the start speaks volumes of y'alls understanding of how it would work.
Between your dad and his sons you guys have welding, fabricating, and electrical design and wiring covered what can’t you guys manufacture. God blesses a hard working man who takes care of his family, worships God and you my friends are blessed. Show the world real men still seek God in our crazy time.

Perhaps the peas are splitting because they are colliding on a steel surface inside the air chambers. Perhaps line the inside chambers with something less dense than steel.
They do hit rubber belting on the divider

Spring loaded pinned trailer jacks would be a great addition as well. :-)
I was about to comment this, way faster and easier.
Good job Welker Fab Shop, congrats on the DIY power screen!)) Pray for Ukraine, they're farmers too.

Praying for a quick recovery. "gimpimg around"
Nice job on your build . Looks like it will work well for you . I can see you Incorporating It into your bin system in the future !
Works good may want to put a support bearing on the long shaft for discharge auger just a thought good video.
great to see that your guys are getting some moisture wish i could seen some your way we are getting a lot mostly in ice form. awesome to see the clean in action. great video and have a blessed day.

Thanks for watching Greg!
I was told a split pea would still germinate. The neighbour had the wrong rollers in his tank and ground them up pretty bad and still had a good crop.
Magnificent, brilliant, I award you all a US navy Seabee for your incredible ‘ CAN DO” spirit.
Gday Welkers! I hope everything is looking better this year.
Idea for snow pusher. Old positrack rubber tracks. Cut to desired width. Tip up on edge make frame to mount and to self level during use. Perfect for cleaning. Levelling snow. Etc.
Love it when a plan comes together... the cleaner is looking good..
Great job guys! So satisfying for you I am sure and it is to watch as well! Definitely a sea of peas! :) I am praying for your yields this year!
You all are awesome, take an idea and turn it into reality, totally awesome job! 👍

You should add a connection to your leveling jack for a drill or small impact for quick adjustments
Muy bueno lo que hacen, los miro siempre desde Argentina

Good to hear! Thanks James!
Legarms weld a nut onto those jack handles and use 1/2 drill works great
I always loved doing the bench press but then i got too busy farming. I had to roll the bar off a few times when i was lifting by myself,so hope you heal up real quick. The pea hulls make good cattle feed too.
Glad to see Leg Arms put some protection on that shaft I was really worried about Nick getting fascinated by it spinning, and have an O Shiny moment and try to grab it!
First, cant the discharge chute from the shaker down further so the cleaned peas don't back up so much. Second, get rid of the plastic window as will get scratched easily and replace with glass.

All the little lights and forethoughts is pretty impressive, cool they made that thing. You can tell it'll be the dream when they're done.
Nice to see the cleaner up and running.
For our camper we used an electric impact to put the jacks up and down, worked slick. I’m sure you can figure out a way to make it work on your jacks.
Good to hear it works! We'll make an adapter soon and try that.
Good job guys thanks. And I got to see my old Dodges
Great job. My father had a blacksmith and welding shop in Northern Colorado and built custom equipment for his farmer customers. the work you do in your shop brings back fond memories. The only thing that I might suggest would be to add a carrier bearing to that white shaft in the back of the unit removing the wobble out of the shaft to increase shaft and bearing life.

Make a star wheel tool to spin those trailer jacks. Weld another straight on the handle and cut some slots in a socket. Much faster to get them down to the ground
That way you can still keep the handle for fine tuning
That's so satisfying. Good work guys.
looks like it was working fine ..I would like to see you add guards around the belt areas and the around the augern drive on the front just for darm safeety1...nice job overall and keep the vids coming!
Will be adding the guards
Get a bolt or socket adaptor for the jack, Then use a drill / impact driver - save the hand winding
Great to see someone making rather than buying, might want to have some way of locking the shaker deck in position for when you are transporting the cleaner to prevent it getting damaged 👌
There's stabilizing rods you connect
Looks great. I think if you added a light inside your blower box you could see the cleaning process better.
Holy cow! Nick is cleaning the shop! 😂 Not a bad test run, few tweaks i like what I saw.
Been there, done that.
Made a seed hopper on back of fertilizer trailer. Used a brushed seed augur . Worked great for soybean seed. Gotseed corn in big bags
Big tractor on hydraulic seed augur. BIG MISTAKE. Would NOT move 1 ;ag of seed corn
Ended up using 5 gallon pail to load planter. Ugh! Corn would jam that TIGHT!
Steel augur are noted for cracking seed. Check that for cause.
Had neighbor said; CAN'T LIVE long enough to make all the mistakes.i accepted that as a challenge.
Love it when a plan comes together. 👍👍
It's always a good day when your "this should work" plan, actually works besides some adjusting.
That's awesome and I hope you feel better!!
Hey guys why I used to have my 28 foot RV I added 4 RV level indicators to corners of camper to make leveling quick and easy....all for less than 40 bucks
Great work. Incredible amount of time in this but you should be exceptionally proud of the end result!
Maybe you could weld hex heads on the. jacks so you can run them with an impact driver.
I was going to suggest the same thing. But didn’t want to sound like a know it all. To the genuses that built and designed it. Because the men and machine are just that genus.
good job. May God bless your families
We use dollar coin size bubble levels in our coach for leveling…one on each corner and possibly one on each side on center line should help. Cheap and small enough to stay out of the way.

Thanks for the info 👍
When augering soybeans we used a seed treatment pump and put a little bit of water with the soybeans to keep them from splitting and cracking you should try that.
Another awesome video keep them coming I have always enjoyed your videos and the outcomes of the fabrication you guys do.. God Bless and Stay Safe
Thanks Ron, God bless!
Just a suggestion. Get 4 round disc levels. Attach to the top of each leveler jack. Great video. Keep'em coming.
For the jacks take the handles off and weld old sockets on to the Jack's so you can just take an impact and use thar for the jacks.
Looking great. Much cheaper than a commercial cleaner. I should come look at yours I would like to figure out how to get more movement in my screener. Maybe a different vibratory unit and change the hanger system. That capacity in your cleaner looks excellent.
Awesome creativity and design with your grain/seeder cleaner trailer. Have you thought of removing the handles on the 4 jacking legs and welding on a nut or bolt so you can use a drill or impact wrench to raise/lower the jacking legs? Have a wonderful and blessed day.

I think it was George Perrard who said "I love it when a plan comes together" on the A team TV series. It looks like your plan is coming together. Thanks for sharing. Happy subscriber 😊.
Just an idea for the legs. Years ago there used to be a leg you could get that had an adjustable sleeve in it. Pull a pin, adjust it to the hight you need the you will only have to crank it up a little I stead of what ever length of time it's taking you now. Cut the feet of the legs and weld them to a smaller ID box tube that will slide inside the leg, drill and put in a pin. 20 min of fab work will save you time else where... keep up the work!!!🙏🙏
