- Winter is coming! Or at least a fall storm with a nasty taste of winter. We must cleanup our storage so we can maximize the use of space for equipment. Today's job...clean and store headers and the 9370.

So some birds want to buy the 9370. They keep leaving a deposit on it. ;-)
Hahahaha classic!
@@WelkerFarms dont listen to them don't go john deere its a road you don't want to go down
@@robertshufflebotham5192 our problem with the JD the keep hiding in the tall grass when the other ones were out
I know this sounds dumb but to help keep the birds away hang fishing line from the ceiling loosely in random heights. I used to work for a lawn care company and was cleaning up a bird mess at a tractor supply and a really old farmer told me to try it. It worked for me in 75% of the places I tried it. The birds don’t like it and will will find a new place. It just takes 1 or 2 to fly into it I think.
@ I'll vouch for that. We strung monofilament over our chicken yard in alaska. Kept out the Owls and Eagles for sure, and even the small birds that would rob chicken feed stopped. Birds hate flying into stuff they can't see. I think the raptors could see it, since they are sight predators but just avoided it.
That 9370 is the nicest truck ever and I like how it blows black smoke
Thank you for all the hard work your family does to help feed the growing population.
Glad to see iam not the only person to watch silly pet videos when iam bored..lol.. cant believe how big headers have gotten over theyears!
Would love to see a video about Dad and his life growing up
thats so cool that the header doesn't need a separate wagon. thanks for another awesome video
farm buildings make good children play houses(castles) as long as they are carefully and they understand to be safe around equipment
Just love the way that truck sounds.
I notice that you call it work, but it is obvious that you guys are having fun. That, by the way, is what makes your videos fun and worth watching.
Great Video, Glad your crops are done with snow coming your way.
Couple guys watch cat videos and rest of us are watching the Walker brothers do there thing! Nice video guys. Always collect stuff on a farm!
I am glad I taught you well, son. 😇
Why weren't you here giving instructions, showing how to wax the shop floor MR CLEAN 😁🚽🛏️
Thank you Master Cole!
mightiest blue pw hose west of the Mississipp!
Love the farm life work never stops but its enjoyable working with family and having your kids close by
Hang in there, FARMING is not easy !!!! And Mother Nature"s a fickle 1 !!! GOD BLESS !!!
Lots of money there in all that equipment hopefully those peas will sell so you get the rest in under roof plus it looks very cleaned up thank you, God Bless from Waynesburg Pa.
Snow already? Yuck! Glad your harvest is over before that mess.
Another enjoyable video. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
Hello guys, hope the day finds you well, just a tip about loose nuts. If you loop some nylon fishing line through the nut you make a poor man's nylock nut. Love the vids great insight to the farm life.
You're right, Nick, mice NEVER find a way in. If you make a sign on a 3x5 card and post it close to the ground, they'll read it and obey. Unless they chew it up and use it as part of their nest! BTW that green fiberglass was good because it kept out the direct sun. I could see the rays coming in as you replaced it with clear. Hopefully nothing with good paint will get parked where it will get faded! Thanks for the great videos!
Forgot about the light fading! Hmm might need to change it or spray paint it.
Awesome cleaning video thanks for sharing God bless👍👍👍👍
Cool video you boys are y’all dad work well together. Kiddos are so sweet, 99.9 of the time 🚜🚜🚜🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
14.05 yeaeah! Her most lovely smile. Can you say puppy? :) Priceless! Thnx for sharing! Such a happy one.
❤️ 🌹
Out here the Combines have to put the headers in trailer mode and hook them up behind the combines to go on the road cos the roads are narrow down here in France :-)
So Beautiful Smart Farming
Awesome camera work as usual. It was amazing all the bird crap was dead center on the hood of the truck. Might wanna tarp it as well.
Why am I watching this instead of cleaning up my own shed.
Why am i watching this and not the cat videos lol
Member everyone of you ATE today thank a farmer!!
New grain bins is an excellent idea. You'll need as much storage as possible for a minimum of two years. You guys are fantastic, hope it all works out for you.
Welkers in the summer is awesome to watch ,Welkers in the winter it’s project time where new things are being born out of metal and sweat 👍
Mr Bob will see how clean you two got this old building and next thing you know it will be full of wheat. Lol
I saw that, getting the auger ready 😁👍
Thanks for the great video of the blogs. My 2 cents worth is for 2 very large grain bins with auto unloaders.Think "economies of scale!". plus less time needed when compared to setting up for smaller bins.
Watching those headers slide into that quonset brought back flash backs of putting the pull-type swather away.
I love bob taking off at 13:18
Not bad for an old man taking off like a rabbit. 🙄
build another shed with some form of auger pit that can be topped with metal. That way its more efficient as seed storage but you still het an extra building part of the year
Fummins wasn't leaking oil. It was marking the road as its territory.
Ford fabulous, fix it.....fix it......fix it
@@JohnDoe-jq5wy - Its not really a Ford engine in that truck. And that oil issue is minor vs what would have happened in a standard ford f350 of that era with the 6.0l Junk.
No,that's a Cat
Snow! Great video love watching them! cleaning something no one wants to do but it needs to be done.
Also you have enough room on the left side of the building for a lean to for the bouts and wave runners to be parked under.Just cover them up for the winter.
Go for a big bin. One big bin will always look and work better then a bunch of little ones
All those lose bolts are just the Fummins typing out a message that it wants an air ride suspension. Zooming across those fields is rough on its bones bolts!
Love it 😅❤️👍
Awesome vid again! I enjoy watching your guys videos. Keep em coming.
To move equipment don’t use a hitch to put on you forks drill a little hole in them so you can still move pallets and stuff while you can still move equipment.
You two brothers are awesome guys! Working together and having fun, and also with your dad. Keep it going all your lives, and you will be glad you did! You all have awesome family's! Great video!!
Best solution to keeping junk is to keep a list of all things purchased/brought on the farm and what their state is and most importantly, where the item or parts are. My uncle would take pictures of the item (black and white ones, cause that was it back then) and keep a detailed inventory over the years. Really neat system, very useful to determine something like "yeah, i think i can use that boom arm from this 1953 crane i have in building C that's otherwise never going to see use anymore as is".
In the digital age, this kind of stuff would be a 3 minute endeavor for each major storage area.
Big boats owners use giant shrink wrap bags to winterize their boats. Would be fun to see your combines covered like that. It would protect them really well.
Us farmers in South Dakota have been getting a lot of rain and we harvested in October so it's cutting his back love your TH-cam channel an equipment
The way the veggie burgers are catching on you would think peas will rise thanks for the vid.👍👍
Bugger the veggie burgers, feed the peas to cows and sheep and let’s eat them. After all there happy being vegans I’m not.🥩🥩🥩🇦🇺
i hope a new tractor for your dad is on wish list a nice magnum i dont mean the yellow peril lol take care welkers god bless
The mice never find a way 😂😂😂
Yeah lol that's always been my experience too........NOT!!!
Me and my dad just got a new 80' by 50' equipment building put up last month. I find myself just walking into it and just looking at it with our equipment in it and out of the weather. First new structure on our farm in 20 years. Already wish we would have may it bigger. Lol
jim pustejovsky building are never big enough lol
Jim, It sure is nice having new machinery shed to keep machines out of weather. Uncle just had 60' x 100' shed built. I thought it was small from outside till I got inside. That will be farm yard new building since 1980.
Reply to Brad not Landa
Awww - building is just the right size, you just forgot the closets and the 2nd floor with an attic!
@@spencermoss5528 but but but, it just accumulate more stuff....
I have a 100x300 and still wish it was bigger.
i hope prices go up so u can build thos nice combines a sweet home so they dont have to live out side
really liked the vid again thks nick
Hey, it's all fun; come on its the Welker dynamic and wide open fun.
What are the Welkers going to do; I'm in Texas and remember, don't mess with TEXAS!!! Wow!!! BOOM!!
I'm speechless 😁
You might think of taking those old tires being placed in the water hazards the big combines have to drive by to get another field. Fill the tires with rocks as a base and then dirt to widen the ground between the water hazards.. Good use for old tires. Ta
king a negative and making a positive !
Dad and I would get ride of scrap that had set for years and the need week and that's just what we needed love in Christ a prayer partner be safe DDD
Thanks for praying with us. This is a journey which we need to be and stay faithful to the Kingdom, Blessings 👍
I find a pressure washer with a nozzle that puts out a very narrow jet is useful for dealing with the birds, their nests, their deposits, their young, etc. You can kill many birds with one jet. Just wear some face protection if you are at all close, or in the fall line.
The birds are going to fly into the clear fiberglass like that old windex commercial. LOL
That is the AFC housing, the fuel plate is located under it and the upper portion uses manifold pressure to regulate how much fuel the pump feeds the engine. Those bolts are I believe supposed to be tightened with a hand impact driver or manual impact driver which ever you want to call it.
Thank you for the information!
I love that 9370!
December wanted to say hi a little early this year.
Heald Bike! I’m a good bit older than you guys, but I’ve got the Heald three wheeler dad bought us boys when we were kids. I start it about once a year and tear around the farm. Still fun. And scary.
Next years plan should be put up a building and some more grain bins
We sure hope so!
@@WelkerFarms If looking into new bin, check this out. scafcograin.com
RR buildings...just saying.
@@aserta made contact with him, nice guy!
Easy to spend the money when its not urs
Ever look at fabric hoop buildings? Would cover a lot of space for cheap for your large equipment and grain storage. I love mine, granted it's only a 30x40, but its held up great even in strong winds.
The 80s called, they would like their music back, 😃
Y’all been watching Cole clean to much. No worries he got me motivated as well haha 😆
That's a good ONE!!!
Cole, the cornstar, amazing young man. Good therapy for Cole and sure glad they took the task on to clean that property. Good job Cole and Welkers
Clean clean clean! Cole has been doing a great job, gotta keep up with him!
Cole is very pleased with Nick and Leg Arm's efforts.
@@ColeTheCornstar Ya made them do it. They gotta keep up with you now. 🤣
@@ColeTheCornstar that funny
U can put pots (flower plastic pots) on the stacks of the semi’s therefore when it does rain .... it doesn’t get inside the exhaust when the truck is outside .....
You maybe have already looked around but were I live there's used 20,000 bushel grain bins that show up from time to time online.
That orange motorcycle in the background, looks like our 1973 Suzuki TC 125.
It's a 1973 kawasaki 250 Enduro
@@RobertWelkerFarmerBob it was my first motorcycle. We still have it. 2 stroke
cleaning the general area of the leak then throw some baby powder on it, start & oil leak appears pretty quick :)
Good vid! Can’t wait for the Wagner restoration.
Maybe you guys could “demo” a building and a couple big bins. 🤔🤣
Permanent demo 😁
I like that idea
Buddy you can’t demo grain bins in less they can be on a trailer and made to have it is own
@@mz1drfl r/whooosh
Welker Farms Inc Absolutely
great work on the shop! looks assume but you should have brought cole in on this one.
That's one mellow LegArms there at the end of the video... I'm always left with one primary thought at the end of each video. This time it's, "self-sufficient". As always, great video.
Hi guys Farm show magazine had a add for used billboard tarps. 3 layers thick and huge sizes. They also had new material. Big enough to cover a cornbinder. Put them old Dodge’s under cover. Or better yet l will come get them and store them for you. That’s the type of guy l am keep up welkers all
Thanks for the video hope you guys are staying warm I saw that you got a lot of snow over the weekend
I can almost smell the cutting of the old sun rotten fiberglass windows. My arms are itchy too.
That was lot of stuff you moved out of the building! Those dumb birds will find anyway into a building to build nests! It’s just crazy how they find ways in! God bless and I hope the snow doesn’t get to deep for you guys! I miss the snow covered Rocky Mountains! Winter is my fav time of year!
I have the 3 time rule, if I clean around it 3 times, it is gone. Stuff you never use in the year, needs to find a new home. I had a depression ERA Grandfather who never threw anything away and that inspired me. Pitching unwanted items for over 50 years has kept me busy.
Discovered Coal shaker grates in the house attic while insulating, who would have thought.
Karen's mom was that way, coming from the depression era.
A comment ...... there ya go subscribed a number of times .... liked ..... and comment left ..... keep up the awesome videos from Australia
Thanks for following with us on this journey 👍
You guys rock! Stay safe from this virus!
Thanks for sharing your experience with us! I just subscribed.
Really like those case welker hats!!
When we get information from CaseIH team we'll let everyone know 👍
Hollywood who gave you the blackeye ,Legarms 😀
Hollywood must have torqued down all those loose bolts, 'cause Leg Arms would have nearly sheared them off tightening them up.
Looks to me that you guys could really do a collab of sorts with the guys over at RR buildings. They can build some pretty sick spans with their tech. They have a TH-cam channel and you can check out their work that way. I might be from Europe, but if i could ship them over to build buildings of that nature here, i wouldn't blink on it. They're doing outstanding work.
If you didn't put the new window under the metal on the top you will need a ton of silicone to keep it from leaking. And expanding foam is your friend.
Definitely need to finish sealing it up, I'll go back over and finish it as we were unable to lap it under the metal.
@@WelkerFarms It might be too late due to cold weather for silicone to set/dry. 🙁
I think it's harder to remember what I have saved...I'll end up buying something new when I already had the part stashed from years ago...I need some sort of computerized inventory for all my junk.
LegArms he is the man
Nick's videos are slick
Bobs clan, he has the plan.
🎶👍😁
cant wait for the wagners videos good luck God bless everybody and take care another epic video
Great video guys thanks have a great day be safe.
Farm equipment really intrigues me. Machines in general too. Could you do a video explaining how a combine/harvester work?
Here is an animated look m.th-cam.com/video/H6PXffJFIFY/w-d-xo.html
@@RobertWelkerFarmerBob Hey thanks! That"s interesting! So different as the old Claas in the 70-s. Much more efficient yah.
Very good video's keep it up
Keep the good work guy yall are awesome!!!
Just an FYI I would dig into that oil leak a little farther. That is the AFC housing on the top of the pump. There should have been a tamper proof screw in the inner front corner unless someone had turned the fuel up to it previously. That being said once I get that screw out I never replace it and have never had an oil leak. There shouldnt be much pressure under that cover, if there is it sounds like you may have a seal blown out somewhere in the pump allowing it to build pressure under the housing. I'd say something is def. going on in there.
Appreciate your insight! We will investigate further, this engine has been turned up by a previous owner.
Looking at the snow you guys got recently and this was done in the nick of time.
Heavy on the Nick
Wow.. Farm machinery Tetris skills are on point !!
I’ve seen the winter storm coverage of Montana this past Monday 😬. I never liked the green fiber glass panels. New ones look awesome.
OOh, with all that fiberglass on your hand you must resist the urge to scratch, IYKWIM! 8-)
Reply to Brad not Landa
I vote go big on the bins. You basically have two crops, so there is little need to have a lot of separation, right? You have some bins you may be able to store last years crops. Unless the bigger system to move the grain higher tips the balance to smaller bins. Then you may not even need to put in new infrastructure to get grain into a real tall bin. If there are WIDE and low bins it may be a win.
Get any sealant under the top and sides of the corrugated windows? Not putting it under the top sheet stops the shingle effect. Caulk plz. The foam will maybe last a year from the UV damage.
Good decision.....👍😎
I love watching your videos I wish I lived up that way I live in Alabama we just got done with corn harvest now we have cotton getting ready for harvest
I know I have mentioned it before, but take your grader out and cut you a nice little 1800 foot strip. You have your licence, so pick yourself up a nice clean little taildragger and start building hours and having fun. You could even put some skis on it and have a ball in the winter. Do you still have a passion for flying, or have your interests gone in another direction? Not trying to be nosy, I just remain curious because you have the absolute best place for a nice little strip, in a great part of the country!!
