Daddy Corn Star. You and the whole team have every right to be mad. None of this should be happening. A trusted builder wouldn't want to wait for a court to decide what should be done. A outstanding company would be out there making everything right. I'm hoping everything is corrected asap.
I agree with you. However, I also understand their problems. The remedial work will be expensive, just removing the hopper, destroying the concrete pad, and building a new one will be a big, expensive job. The problem being, if they built it as specified and it didn't work, then it may be more of an engineering problem and not a builder problem. While I am not privy to the details of the case, lets just say there are more than two parties involved and that is where it gets complex. We know it isn't right, but assigning blame (and cost) as a result is a big deal. Something like this could run one, the other, or both into chapter 11.
I get the impression its a battle between the designer and the bin contractor, each pointing fingers at each other with the Corn stars caught in the middle.
We all have bad days but good on Cooper to still be on hand to help fix issues, especially mechanical issues…..he’s a fabulous asset to the family farms.
Never apologize for being safely conscious. I would be embarrassed if that were my company that built that site. Keep pressuring them to make it right.
@colleenuchiyama4916 If your workers work aloft without safety gear like the Cornstar family you should be very worried. You risk losing everything you own letting workers work unsafely! You insurance probably won't cover you either due to a fall injury without safety equipment being used.
I was wondering the same thing! I know this was building built through the pandemic times, bits no excuse for how bad things are. Everything is either built with inferior materials or designed poorly. Should not have to sue to get this address.
@@lajohnson1967 during the pandemic contractors like the ones that put up the bin site couldn't find good people to work, this is what happens when you scrape the bottom of the barrel. the cornstars went with a company that had been around building bin sites for many years and was known to be good in the past, but at the time they probably had mostly new workers because all the old ones had been laid off during the start of the pandemic. couple that with all the shortages during that time and it's a perfect storm for shoddy workmanship. I highly doubt it's just their bin site, it's probably any binsite they worked on during that time frame.

Oh I was about to cry while Daddy Cornstar was talking about the bins. I pray that no one gets hurt and that you all get some satisfaction with this law suite
You guys I hope are going after these people not only for the bin site but for neglect infliction of emotional distress. To watch daddy cornstar and his emotions show what is happening NOW with the bin site was heart breaking I do hope you can just take a breath and know this will get resolved. I am not a sue happy person but he is right, someone walking underneath or even climbing up could get serioulsy hurt. This is so scary to watch what is happening. Prayers for you all.
I am a farmer and it's not a very good advertisement for them. I get that it's new and they are probably working some kinks out but they really should do that behind closed doors.
Lots of progress. It's a good year. DC's frustration is understandable and I'm so glad no one has gotten hurt yet. Praying for you during this really difficult time.
Be safe guys , Little Edward will be working the farm one day , must keep the faith that the bin sight will be REBUILT !! I surprised that O.S.H.A. hasn’t shut this operation down !!! 🙏🏻
I hope this lawsuit and garbage build get fixed before someone gets really really hurt, if not something more serious… Some people have no work integrity! Be safe
This man is so precious. DC-praying for peace and justice in this situation. When it’s all said and done, just know you have honored God in this trying time. 🙏🏻❤️🩹
I hate y’all are having problems with the equipment the only positive thing is at least you have a great platform to share the issues and hopefully educate others that might be headed into the same boat as you. Hope it’s all worked out in the end before anyone is hurt.
This is insane. I'm baffled how it's even come to the point of a lawsuit. It's so obvious how poorly constructed it is. But Daddy Cornstar, please wear a safetybelt when climbing the bins. For the sake of your family. 😊
My first thoughts on seeing you up there. Please wear some fall restraints. Even if you have to bring in a different company to put in some tie offs and make things safe it's better than not having a solid place to tie off.
Daddy Corn Star and Boys, With the condition of the bin sight I recommend a safety harness when you are up. You know the safety railing is bad and that’s on them. Failure to be safe is on your family.
I didn't see anything up there that I would trust enough to tie off to, if it was me.... If you fell off, you'd probably pull parts off the building down on top of you.
You are going to be something else when you get old . I can just see it like a movie. I’m a newer guy too your channel. Your energy and trying to figure everything out. Your excitement and stories will be great.
DC safety is everything. You are right about your concerns. I would be devastated if something happened. Good going on the harvesting. Big thumbs up everyone
I agree DC would ordinarily be safe with a harness, but what in the world would be safe enough for him to hook onto?? Also, I hope their attorney is taking note of the loss of productability, loss of income due to having to sell instead of storing on-site, etc. This is such a frustrating, sickening mess. Let's hope the courts/system doesn't drag their feet too long. My heart goes out to you guys.

They have a lawsuit filed that's why they're so careful about what they say so things can't be used against them by the contractors lawyers. Cole explained it all before they filed the lawsuit that's what makes it so difficult for them because until the trials over they're pretty much gagged. 😠😠
@@tanull45 I know I’ve followed this channel for some time and I watched as this was getting built. It’s so much worst and the cracks really are starting to show. So dangerous.
I am not a farmer nor am I a builder, but as I watched these bins being built, I could not believe how quickly they went together and how fast the put them up after the concrete was poured. I thought concrete needed to be cured before any building could be built on it. Red flags, in my opinion! I hope you guys get it resolved soon!
To be fair, for corn bins, a couple of days of curing would be enough. A concrete pad designed to hold a full one at its nominal curing strength can hold an empty one at 10% curing strength... ;) Doesn't help if you pour them out of 4-inch C10...
As a farmer here in Pennsylvania it looks to be about two or three years old now it's time to put the repairs in yourself and don't expect anything from nobody. If you find it's a safety issue I would grab some tools and go up there and start tidying things up . My dad always taught me if you want things done right do them yourself
I agree anything now even it was not right in the first place the company will say is past the warranty so you might just as well fix it yourself instead of tearing it apart.
If they repair anything then the builders lawyers can come back and say it was their repair work that caused the issues. Better to leave it until everything is settled unfortunately.
@@justmeiniowathere's a point in your life you just got to say hey we got to fix this nobody's going to do it for us. If safety was an issue for your family you need to be the man of the house and fix it
@@justmeiniowa If you care about safety. Just document what was loose and what you had to do yourself or pay to have done. You can add that to a lawsuit. Shouldn't be letting it go unsafe if you can clearly see it needs addressed
Every time you are up on top of that structure I get so nervous for you Daddy Cornstar. At this point you’d think that company would want to finish the lawsuit and protect their name. We all feel terrible for what you are going thru. You have a wonderful family and I trust you will prevail.
Daddy Cornstar, I'm a 70 year old farmer's daughter. This made me cry... How DANGEROUS this is becoming!!! Is the suit against the company hampering you from getting a different company to place new safety railing and plantforms? You DEFINITELY need them!!! GOD, Please protect them from fatal injuries! Amen!
Seeing the green storage trailers with Cooper walking beside them is the first time I've actually realized how huge they are! I was thinking about your harvest, and if you were going to finish before Neva delivers the second baby. Oh, word to the wise, don't wait too long. Neva delivered Edward fairly quick and with little effort. She's a trooper and a natural. She will probably not say anything until it's go time. It could be a sore back, a funny catch in her side, or using the restroom a lot. Long story short could be the catch phrase for #2. She won't want to wait to make her grand entry 😊❤
The fact that a $1MILLION bin site is literally falling apart is disgusting. You have all of this documented on video and pictures so it just HAS to come out in your favor not only every penny you put into it, but with compensation for your time, financial loss due to not being able to use it, and for the stress and emotional trauma this has all been. Plus the time it will take to either repair or completely redo the bin site.
Never apologize for expecting quality work. This company and contractors should be ashamed. I hope you all win and get someone to help correct the problems.
@@johnunsicker7440 when they have only one contract. To me it is a blaming issue and no one takes responsibility. Many times being cheap will cost more
It is just amazing to me how far harvesting has come over the years since I was young. I have enjoyed the education that you have provided us by sharing your day-to-day life and work...more specifically all the work! That part hasn't changed! As most of your comments alluded to, I am so sorry you and your family are going through this enormous problem with shoddy unsafe workmanship. I wish you well in your journey toward a resolution.
My heart stops everytime one of you are up there. I would be fuming as well. I can't believe they did such shoddy work and used such cheap material. It wasn't worth what you guys paid for it. 😡😡😡.
Geeze, seeing DC that pissed, really puts into perspective how frustrating this is. DC is always cool calm and collected. So him pissed makes me certainly 😡
My heart goes out to you & your family! This is not right! I admire your restraint in expressing your frustrations. Praying that it gets settled quickly, so you can move forward and make things safe!
I certainly hope they have a lawsuit pending and it’s progressing.. if not I’m laughing bc this is just beyond ridiculous anymore. Even AGI owes them a new bin site.. nothing less.
Between that corn head and the bin site y’all are having a heck of a time with equipment. I hope that bin site gets sorted out before next harvest. Glad the support has been as good as it has been for the corn head though.
Sucks to see DC so stressed with the bin site. And it’s not like it will fix itself I understand the frustration with not being able to use something you poured so much time and money into just for it to be a burden more so then an upgrade.
Daddy corn star, you are 100% right... safety first!!! I am so sorry that the bin site is not safe... I hope you guys are going after the people that built the bin site!!!
They’ve probably been advised by their lawyer NOT to fix them. In fact, I’d wager that they had to get written permission or sign some sort agreement to be able to remove loose pieces or even use the bin site while the lawsuit is going on.
Just a tip. Don't show the AGI address or phone number because people will call them and it will be harassment. Put it all in the law suit and let the law take care of it. Also get a safety harness for when you go up on the bins so you can hook on.
It has nothing to do with AGI systems 💁♂️ it’s the independent contractor who is at fault. So showing the name of equipment means nothing on the problems with the bin site.
I thought when Daddy CS said, "some of the big shots know about it", when he was talking about the safety railing being bad, that he was talking about AGI. @@kevink4914
They have to live with this and face a judgment. Just heartbreaking the investment and trust you gave to have the farm improved to have fear of using the equipment.
Daddy Cornstar I remember shortly after this was built and you were topside and the handrail was loose then. I remember that you pointed that out. It was shortly after the construction was finished.
I'm so sorry you have to put up with that crappy workmanship. That is scary to think of what could happen. It seems obvious to me that these guys didn't have a clue about what they were doing. There is no excuse whatsoever for that horrendous work. That company should be ashamed of themselves & should never be allowed to build ANYTHING ever again. Hope you guys get everything fixed eventually.
If any other Farmers have Grain Bins from this Company should call this Company to send out an Inspector to inspect their bins for these type of malfunctions in their product
@@johnunsicker7440 If I were the manufacturer, I'd be sending someone out because it's my name on the product that's getting shown. Plus, if the worst happens and someone does get hurt, the size and breadth of the lawsuits start expanding.
I feel it's very inconsiderate of them and he think its funny. Ironically what's holding the lights up is falling down, so maybe the neighbors won't have to deal with it much longer, karma.
The wrong thing to do is wait for the lawsuit to fix it. It's going to have to be fixed regardless and you are the ONE who sees the potential for one of your kids to get hurt and you will be the one who will blame himself for letting it happen. Hire a crew to come and fix it and then you will know what it cost to fix that part of it.
I totally agree with you. Document all deficiencies, track all repair costs. It has to be done anyway and should be done before someone is seriously injured.
Bad idea you got to give the contractor and manufacture time to fix it. Many people have tired this and ended up losing because they didn't let them fix it..
@@johnunsicker7440 They should have never been paid in the first place and I don't think they were but as soon as I knew there was a problem and a danger to my family I would have been up there fixing it myself if I had to. As it sits now if someone gets hurt it won't take much of a lawyer to make it look to jury like they weren't fixing it to jack up the award amount and leaving it like that is what allowed someone to get hurt. I see DC is frustrated and I know Cole won't say much on his lawyers advice and I imagine DC is as frustrated with Cole for not fixing it as he is with the bin company. Cole hired a bad bin company and then hired a bad lawyer on top of it who more than likely told him to not put much on the air about it and not fix which is both bad advice. I'd would have blasted the name of that company all the time on my channel til they came out and fixed it or hired another company to come out and fix it but it's pure luck someone hasn't died from this and if you don't fix it some one might. It's one hell of a price to prove you are right esp when it's one of your family that's gonna get hurt or killed.

It is just amazing to me how far harvesting has come over the years since I was young. I have enjoyed the education that you have provided us by sharing your day-to-day life and work...more specifically all the work! That part hasn't changed! As most of your comments alluded to, I am so sorry you and your family are going through this enormous problem with shoddy unsafe workmanship. I wish you well in your journey toward a resolution.
My heart stops everytime one of you are up there. I would be fuming as well. I can't believe they did such shoddy work and used such cheap material. It wasn't worth what you guys paid for it. 😡😡😡.
Praying and won't stop praying over this bin site. God bless you all ❤💪🏽🙏💖🐝🐢
Their is a devil in the details on both sides.
The pieces that are falling off the bin site. Will make a bigger case against the company that built the site.
God bless your family!
Geeze, seeing DC that pissed, really puts into perspective how frustrating this is. DC is always cool calm and collected. So him pissed makes me certainly 😡
My heart goes out to you & your family! This is not right! I admire your restraint in expressing your frustrations. Praying that it gets settled quickly, so you can move forward and make things safe!
I certainly hope they have a lawsuit pending and it’s progressing.. if not I’m laughing bc this is just beyond ridiculous anymore. Even AGI owes them a new bin site.. nothing less.
Years of waiting...
@@Skay24 ur point? It’s been years of this nonsense lol. Just asking if they’re taking action and didn’t settle with the contractor
@@johnj2748 he already said long ago that there is legal stuff going on behind the scenes but they cant go public with it.
the bins themselves are oxay it is just the cat walks and the concrete i think
They have a lawsuite going but it takes time. I guess another 2 years before anything will be solved.
All the work you guys have done to the farm over the past 10 years must've increased its value significantly
2.5 million dollar death trap. Hope things get resolved soon.
Between that corn head and the bin site y’all are having a heck of a time with equipment. I hope that bin site gets sorted out before next harvest. Glad the support has been as good as it has been for the corn head though.
Sucks to see DC so stressed with the bin site. And it’s not like it will fix itself I understand the frustration with not being able to use something you poured so much time and money into just for it to be a burden more so then an upgrade.
Daddy corn star, you are 100% right... safety first!!! I am so sorry that the bin site is not safe... I hope you guys are going after the people that built the bin site!!!
I would probably fix the bins myself instead of continuously tearing off more pieces.
They’ve probably been advised by their lawyer NOT to fix them. In fact, I’d wager that they had to get written permission or sign some sort agreement to be able to remove loose pieces or even use the bin site while the lawsuit is going on.
Praying that you all prevail over this grain bin mess…❤
Cole, you're looking super healthy!
teal love that drier screenings
Just a tip. Don't show the AGI address or phone number because people will call them and it will be harassment. Put it all in the law suit and let the law take care of it. Also get a safety harness for when you go up on the bins so you can hook on.
It has nothing to do with AGI systems 💁♂️ it’s the independent contractor who is at fault. So showing the name of equipment means nothing on the problems with the bin site.
I thought when Daddy CS said, "some of the big shots know about it", when he was talking about the safety railing being bad, that he was talking about AGI. @@kevink4914
they already filed suit
@@kevink4914I hear ya but how much can a person take? Your advice is sound.
Not sure what I would trust up there to hook on to...
It seems craftsmanship has gone out the window any more
❤❤❤❤❤❤ I can truly relate
They have to live with this and face a judgment.
Just heartbreaking the investment and trust you gave to have the farm improved to have fear of using the equipment.
I agree with you D.C. 100 percent.
I don’t think that’s a million dollar project is more like a dollar project 😂😂😂😂😂
They got what they paid for. A site that size, should have cost three times what they paid.
Daddy Cornstar I remember shortly after this was built and you were topside and the handrail was loose then. I remember that you pointed that out. It was shortly after the construction was finished.
I'm so sorry you have to put up with that crappy workmanship. That is scary to think of what could happen. It seems obvious to me that these guys didn't have a clue about what they were doing. There is no excuse whatsoever for that horrendous work. That company should be ashamed of themselves & should never be allowed to build ANYTHING ever again. Hope you guys get everything fixed eventually.
If you put air on the on the bins when running into to them you will be able to plug the flow down to cause a plugged spouts and elevator legs.
I am terrified for your lives every time I see that bin site. I pray it gets fixed before something happens that can't be fixed.
Family and hard work. Love it
If any other Farmers have Grain Bins from this Company should call this Company to send out an Inspector to inspect their bins for these type of malfunctions in their product
Its not AGI it the contractor dealer that is the problem.
@@johnunsicker7440 If I were the manufacturer, I'd be sending someone out because it's my name on the product that's getting shown. Plus, if the worst happens and someone does get hurt, the size and breadth of the lawsuits start expanding.
3:23 - Making Corn Meal! Good stuff.
I wonder if your neighbors like your lights, or do they wish it would be dark again.
I feel it's very inconsiderate of them and he think its funny. Ironically what's holding the lights up is falling down, so maybe the neighbors won't have to deal with it much longer, karma.
@@rodneygobbler6279 I agree.
I’m sure it would be corrected immediately if the neighbours advised they didn’t like it.
Luv Cole's haircut. Argentinians, Cooper and the dad. What a famdamnly of farmers!!!
The wrong thing to do is wait for the lawsuit to fix it. It's going to have to be fixed regardless and you are the ONE who sees the potential for one of your kids to get hurt and you will be the one who will blame himself for letting it happen. Hire a crew to come and fix it and then you will know what it cost to fix that part of it.
I totally agree with you. Document all deficiencies, track all repair costs. It has to be done anyway and should be done before someone is seriously injured.
@@randykovalenko1236 Maybe we can get enough people to agree this isn't something they need to wait to do.
Bad idea you got to give the contractor and manufacture time to fix it. Many people have tired this and ended up losing because they didn't let them fix it..
@@johnunsicker7440 They should have never been paid in the first place and I don't think they were but as soon as I knew there was a problem and a danger to my family I would have been up there fixing it myself if I had to. As it sits now if someone gets hurt it won't take much of a lawyer to make it look to jury like they weren't fixing it to jack up the award amount and leaving it like that is what allowed someone to get hurt.
I see DC is frustrated and I know Cole won't say much on his lawyers advice and I imagine DC is as frustrated with Cole for not fixing it as he is with the bin company. Cole hired a bad bin company and then hired a bad lawyer on top of it who more than likely told him to not put much on the air about it and not fix which is both bad advice. I'd would have blasted the name of that company all the time on my channel til they came out and fixed it or hired another company to come out and fix it but it's pure luck someone hasn't died from this and if you don't fix it some one might. It's one hell of a price to prove you are right esp when it's one of your family that's gonna get hurt or killed.
I would be fuming over that bin site that's the family's livelihood God bless the cornstars❤❤😊😊😊
Keep railing about safety! My father in law fell off silo, after life flight and long hospital stay he survived. He was carrying sample with no cage.
So sorry you have had so much many problems with the bin site. I hope things get settled soon. Prayers for all of the Corn Star Family!
