The pond is like it was never there. And Aaron's grading around the structures was spot on. Your clay tiles were exactly what the doctor ordered for drying up the swap and making corn grow. Love everything You're doing to the abandoned farm making it functional and safe. Great video Mike.
Hi Mike, great job! I think you should put gutters on the building and gutter guard if you could work that out. I did that to my 50'x80' building and it is fantastic. Just my thoughts. J.R.
Hey guy's when you plan on planting your first crop of rice? Mr Jerry I tried talk you into a into crawfish....I still want the video on the short track rollers 😮
RECENTLY WaTCHED ANDrew camartras last tape man his excavator burst into flames and hisextinquishers didnt work so make sure you have extinquishers that work carry on the gr8 tapes love watching them thanks
If you want your polebarn post to last longer, treat them at ground level like the REC treats their electric poles. It's some sort of creosote, then cover it with tar paper.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. The new farm is really coming together, the millings and paint should really finish things up. Don’t quite understand the comments about getting rid of the carts now that you just bought rollers to maintain the track. Still think you should get Arron’s trailer painted fluorescent yellow and delivered to his house for his wife’s appreciation. Wishing you and your family the best.
All the years my dad farmed, we would cut oak trees around the fields to keep them from draining acreage. One tree was so big that it probably made a quarter acre start producing again. Even limb trimming will make a big difference but we never had anything like that to reach into the trees. Great idea!
Super awesome when you hire someone to do a job, and they over deliver on the job. Not only to help out, but to raise the bar. Faith in humanity has been restored!
When they charge for jobs you didnt ask for, i do have a problem with that. Youve got to know your customer, and what he has in mind with the project, first: make do for a year or two, or maintenance for the long run ?
Aaron... Is a very skilled intelligent individual. His real job pays many times what he might do for Dirt Perfect. Aaron is borderline retired. So he is out here helping for something that's helps Dirt Perfect. Much like Jerry he works when he wants.. a situation I would love to be in at this point in my life!
That's about where I'm at now. I'm still doing home service calls on Arcade and pinball games, jukeboxes and other amusement equipment but no more recovering pool tables or any heavy lifting jobs. No more company jobs. Gotta keep the old brain active but not beat up my already beatened antique body. @@michaelrobbins9679
Advice: You showed the roof of the equipment building and said you'd like to paint it. I'll be 77 in 6 days, and when my parents purchased their last house (brick) and some acreage in 1960, a rental house and several small barns on the property had rusted tin roofs. I was 13 and when my father told an old neighbor that he was going to have me up on them painting the roofs, the old man carpenter told my father that paint would not stick well to a rusty roof, and that he should have me mop the roofs with vinegar to clean off the rust and let dry a day or two, then paint the dried tin. The tin roofs would still look rusted but the vinegar would wash all the loose and semi-loose rust particles off onto the ground and the paint would stick to the metal. I did. The vinegar did not hurt the ground because it's just a turned apple acidic liquid. That's what I did - a rag mop and vinegar in 1961. Dad died in 2001 and Mother 10 months later in 2002. We sold everything in 2003, and to this day, that paint I applied in 1961 - 63 years ago, is just fine.
I have to say it’s really fun to see you build the things you dream up. Few people can say they have done that in their lives. I can tell how excited and proud you are. Taking the chance and working through failures all while showing it on TH-cam is really impressive. The attitude you and a-a-ron have is what makes this channel great. Keep inventing and thank you for the content.
MBTS ops I would had said the same thing although you said it can’t inspect what’s not there farms are looking great the rebuild of the barn is going to be a great building 👍👋🇨🇦
One Major suggestion with that new Long barn you are Enclosing get some nice tall steel poles. and some I beam and make your self a over head crane on on trolleys just a little at a time. I made one from Mobile home frame (Not the strongest but it will handle quite a bit for cheap steel until it doesn't. Just an example) just think about it I believe it would be one heck of an asset. Just a thought.
The improvements that you and your team have brought about to both the fields, land, and steading buildings are huge and will improve yet more over time as things settle down. This coming years bad winter weather may reveal what you need to do about roof and open surface water collection and drainage. My suggestion is locate some IBR totes with the tops cut out of them that can be repurposed and used for component storage of plumbing / land drainage fitting components according to pipe size. Straight lengths of pipe stored over head (like a steel storage rack,) coils stored "trapped" between IBRs or on their own under the low loft side side of the big shed together with the pipe trailer. I'm far from sure what to suggest for the tile drainer equipment storage as this tool needs heavy lifting capacity to handle this. Hope that these suggestions may be useful in some way, Dan
Hey Mike it’s time like Gunners revenge here’s yours. Maybe teach Arron a lesson by giving him a tiny budget DIY to fix that works for you on his purchase blunder up? Even if he has to go learn from Captain to cut his own lumber. Plus you 2 charging him for your assistance and expertise.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂It would be priceless video content.
The big barn will make a nice equipment shed to keep everything in the dry when not in use The limb saw needs one major improvement to make it absolutely SAW PERFECT!! The last 2-3 feet of the saw at the blade needs to be painted with Aaron’s Florescent Yellow Safety Paint!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
A nice looking field , , , after a 'hair' cut. The mark of a good contractor; sees the need & makes the repair without being asked. I even like his name "JOHN HENRY"! Good job! Pay the man!
Everything looks good Mike and Aaron, barn wall is awesome! Drainage should last for years to come, thanks for sharing Mike! Louisiana sending prayers and positive vibes to yall and your families! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙋🏼✌🏻✌🏻
If you would have use the J750. You would have been done 2 weeks ago than now !!!!!!!!!! 👎 that damn saw head is good for delaying other projects. 🤪😜🤪😜 I’m just saying it doesn’t mean shit to me anyhow. But hmmmmm. Maybe. I could hear the horror horrible things you are saying. 👂👂👂👂👂👂
Mike weight vs ground pressure??? Every time i see that chevy its getting stuck, you might need mount some dually tire on it or better paddle tire 33inch due to your always "not on the road with it" :P .... Or a project rebuild half track, C&C equipment might have an undercarriage...
It's nice you have more covered storage for your equipment. Is the farm more long-term storage e.g. not gonna use it in the next 3-6 months and the yard for the I'm gonna be using this frequently over the coming months? Mr Miller's crew did a fabulous job. None of that is easy and they made it look awesome. Thanks for sharing, Mike.
Hi guys, I think it is about time the "abandoned farm" gets a new name. After all, you've put into it, and it no longer looks anything like abandoned. Also, how is Chris going to feel if you keep that name ! Cheers, EJ
You certainly must have studied grammar proficiently for your descriptive nature sure has its grand course. Just this morning I was trying to recall what an adjective is. I had recalled that they were a noun descriptive sort of words . Kind of amusing that you helped me memorize about the adjective by describing the conditions of your recently not so recent acquired abandoned farm. I had never heard anyone use the word adjective in any subject before esp. not on you tube. Now I have heard a certain congressmen speak of a phrase which I was trying to learn about by him saying " I just have to use an old phrase here, those guys were sure (raising Cain). I had to look raising Cain up. I found that as many use to say those boys sure are raising hell and certain people supplemented Hell with Cain for Cain was like the many members of our Congress always fighting over stuff as Cain and His brother Able surely must have squabbled a lot. So I learned what a Phrase was and now an adjective from You on TH-cam which is not all just work fun and play but also very educational, have a great day. thanks for the great highly needed educational video. Ps 76 years and trying to learn to write more efficient. Better to keep my brain active trying, than lay low and lose it fading out in time.
Hello from the UK. I don't know if you've already painted the old abandoned farm buildings but I think you mentioned painting them green. In the UK we've found that a darker gray actually blends into the background better than green even when looking from above from drones and planes.
appreciate the update on the farm, sure has come a long way...looking forward to seeing future videos around there, and where Arons trailer ends up 🤣, on a side note....have yall considered putting a slightly more aggresive tred tire on the utility truck.....seems like that thing struggles a bit on wet ground, just a thought....gas milage would suffer of course 😁
Mike, I truly hope that you will utilize Aaron's trailer to the best of your ability I know that trailer Aaron's is not your cup of tea I feel it can be incorporated into your farm needs. I know that you guys can come up with something that works for everything and everyone are you going to install a crane in the sealing for lifting things off and on trailers and pickup beds for loading and unloading them? It seems that you want to relocate your shop from your home to the farm so that the home shop is for you and the kids to build things in and not work-related stuff at home. It is a good idea to keep them separated and have more storage room for items, that acquire but at the same time you have purged all of the unnecessary, things that clutter your shop at the house. Is your new shop where you, a gunner going to work on the dozer rebuild I truly think it will be a learning experience for your son and bonding time, amongst each other god willing. Sincerely! R.S.V.
Still think you would do better if, when using the treelimbanator, you would work backwards- cut the limbs and back away from all the brush instead of driving into it.
John Henry Miller looked like an Amish or Mennonite man in the video, I know a lot of people have said the Amish guys will go above and beyond what you ask for and expect. They really seem to have a good work ethic.
Your barn looks really awesome .the hole farm has had a big transformation from bad to a money maker . The people that fixed your barn are they the same people that built your open faced barn in derby ?they did one awesome on your buildings .Denis from SantaRosaCa
MIke, Great to see the work you had done to the larger of the two buildings on the once adandoned farm, and look forward to other work being done, once you find out if you can get some millings for the flooring and outside. The smaller of the two buildings that you have, also very happy to hear that you also have THAT roof completely water tight now as well and no mopre leaks in it, since part of that building is for Aaron's shop🙂 I know you don't want anything to do with that falling apart trailer that Aaron bought, but really wish you would spend a bit of time and help hiom get that rebuilt and brought up to match the smaller building, maybe even paint it the same shade of Grey as the buildings?? The Workshop looks great thus far.
Are you and Aaron kin to my wife? I swear I heard Aaron put a T on the end of the word across a couple of videos back and today I thought DP added an L to the word saw. Just like my wife.
Mike some paint will surely make it look like a new building I would spray paint everything , The farm has come along ways from what it did look like from the first video, Mike another thing you might consider if there is room is to add a 2 post lift in the garage for your pickup or smaller tractors or any other smaller items that would make doing maintenance on them a lot easier..
Yessir…, that farm with all the buildings, was certainly a “diamond in the rough”. It is certainly “cheaper to keep her” these days (re:material costs), and make repairs and up grades, as opposed to demo it all and start over. “John Henry” company appears to know their “stuff”, looks great. Thank you sir.
32:02 you reallly should install gutters so you get even more water away from the building btw in most european countrys pole barns dont fly legally - here in austria a pylon pole as foundation is limited to non commercial buildings no bigger than 800 square ft if lifestock or people are expected to be sheltered you need concrete point footers with concrete anchors - regions with high ground moisture need the point footers to stick out 2 ft over the soil height and are required to use all pressure treated wood for any part of the structure closer than 4 ft to the ground any insurance immedaitely tells you to go fuck yourself if a pole barn getrs blown on your tractor even f it was "structurally sound built " because it doesnt have the from buildings here expected longevity as opposed to most of the USA tho rough cut lumber is legal for use here so long as its debarked to preempt any vermin infestation like woodworms
All coming together well on both farms bro, the buildings are looking good. Look forward to see you guys work on the floor of the big barn when the time comes. Safe travels. Ken.
Mike, just an idea but how about having John Henry come back and put some shelving on the back open side over where you've got the auger, bush hog and other on the ground stuff where you could store mote odds and ends you need off the ground. Odd lengths of tile, boxes of fittings and other stuff that doesn't need to be out of the weather just not exposed to the sun.
uhhh put some of that opaque fiberglass siding like every two or three panels spaced out on the building to allow sun light to come into the building but keep the weather out....
Thanks for the update, you have made a huge difference in the look and use of property and buildings. Looks like your contractor has done an excellent job of repairing of the buildings, always good to have someone you count a good job from.thanks again for the update, enjoyed watching.
Yes DP. You and all your friends have did a awesome job making this farm another working farm after all those years of don’t being a farm. Now you can look 👀 back at it and enjoy your work 😊❤. Now on to another one 😊
Yeah old Aaron is so proud of the POS trailer he got and wants to use it so bad. i could say it would be a part's trailer for tile plowing jobs. Like a lot of Ts and field carrots
Great purchase on the property and very wise renovations. You and my father would have seen eye to eye on just good enough will do the job as storage buildings do not actively produce profits. The only thing I added to the mix was being clean and very organized (I also did a lot of painting, Aaron and I agree on that). If I dropped dead, I don't want my wife stuck with a mess, hang an auction sign on the building and sell contents, then sell the building.
I hope you get the millings as I would really like that vid. I do hope that you do get to Lt Dan as it is your passion project. If you do not I understand that as well.
the new farm is looking super nice. Hard work is paying off on this place. And hopefully a decent income off the farm and being put back in production.
A hint on your windowsills - as water drains off the window it will creep around the end of the board and start rotting. Suggest a simple fix. Get a battery powered rotary saw and cut a slot a half inch under the edge. The water will run to that and drip. Not into the wall or the whole sill. Slot is on the bottom edge.
Hay I was just thinking that would a perfect place to put the drag line in out of the winter weather the building wear the dozer is setting on the abounded farm
Hi mate you have come a long way from when I first started watching your videos love it a lot of hard work looking forward to seeing your work in the future love it
Nice job on finishing up the tree work and finishing up the field tile,the abandoned farm is coming right along,totally changing the work areas.great video.just keep doing what you do.😎😎😎👍👍👍
The pond is like it was never there. And Aaron's grading around the structures was spot on. Your clay tiles were exactly what the doctor ordered for drying up the swap and making corn grow. Love everything You're doing to the abandoned farm making it functional and safe. Great video Mike.
John and his guys really sealed up the buildings nicely. They should last for years to come. You guys have brought life into the old farm.
Hi Mike, great job! I think you should put gutters on the building and gutter guard if you could work that out. I did that to my 50'x80' building and it is fantastic. Just my thoughts. J.R.
Hello from Siesta Key Florida
Hey guy's when you plan on planting your first crop of rice? Mr Jerry I tried talk you into a into crawfish....I still want the video on the short track rollers 😮

All the improvements on the buildings are coming along nicely, Rome was not built in a day. Keep up the good work Mike.
If you want your polebarn post to last longer, treat them at ground level like the REC treats their electric poles. It's some sort of creosote, then cover it with tar paper.
Great video. You and Aaron make a great team. Never a dull moment. It is not abandoned anymore. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊
Huge improvements to the field drainage. The abandoned farm is no longer abandoned or neglected. Great job DP & Almost DP.

Thank you for the metal roof painting tips! Got a couple roofs needing attention.
Good wisdom
Salute!
There are coatings that I've used that are working really well! Way better than just 'paint'.
Dry shop & storage is a great plus. Building well worth saving with repairs done. Aaron, against rules to run over go cart.
Your new metal barn is looking good great video 👍

I can't believe that you 2 just stood there watching a man use manual post hole diggers when u have the bobcat. Come on guys.
One Major suggestion with that new Long barn you are Enclosing get some nice tall steel poles. and some I beam and make your self a over head crane on on trolleys just a little at a time. I made one from Mobile home frame (Not the strongest but it will handle quite a bit for cheap steel until it doesn't. Just an example) just think about it I believe it would be one heck of an asset. Just a thought.
What a great job on the building improvements! Looks like everything is coming together beautifully, thanks for the update Mike! Excellent job!!
Like the video Mike and Aaron ,Like the new barn to a little bit off TLC and its Done .
The improvements that you and your team have brought about to both the fields, land, and steading buildings are huge and will improve yet more over time as things settle down. This coming years bad winter weather may reveal what you need to do about roof and open surface water collection and drainage.
My suggestion is locate some IBR totes with the tops cut out of them that can be repurposed and used for component storage of plumbing / land drainage fitting components according to pipe size. Straight lengths of pipe stored over head (like a steel storage rack,) coils stored "trapped" between IBRs or on their own under the low loft side side of the big shed together with the pipe trailer. I'm far from sure what to suggest for the tile drainer equipment storage as this tool needs heavy lifting capacity to handle this.
Hope that these suggestions may be useful in some way, Dan
Hello dp &mbts great videos an good crack watching your videos 👍👍
Hey Mike it’s time like Gunners revenge here’s yours. Maybe teach Arron a lesson by giving him a tiny budget DIY to fix that works for you on his purchase blunder up? Even if he has to go learn from Captain to cut his own lumber. Plus you 2 charging him for your assistance and expertise.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂It would be priceless video content.
The big barn will make a nice equipment shed to keep everything in the dry when not in use
The limb saw needs one major improvement to make it absolutely SAW PERFECT!! The last 2-3 feet of the saw at the blade needs to be painted with Aaron’s Florescent Yellow Safety Paint!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I agree.

Amazes me when you say “3” of rain this weekend” or “5” this week “. That would be declared a state of emergency in CA.
Still think you would do better if, when using the treelimbanator, you would work backwards- cut the limbs and back away from all the brush instead of driving into it.
I like your subtle comments. Just don't with stuff. My philosophy: Taint mine, it's yours. End of story.
John Henry Miller looked like an Amish or Mennonite man in the video, I know a lot of people have said the Amish guys will go above and beyond what you ask for and expect. They really seem to have a good work ethic.

Would be nice but DP mention doing a new shop some place else this early spring. That would be the place to do a lift in the new shop.
Yessir…, that farm with all the buildings, was certainly a “diamond in the rough”. It is certainly “cheaper to keep her” these days (re:material costs), and make repairs and up grades, as opposed to demo it all and start over. “John Henry” company appears to know their “stuff”, looks great.
Thank you sir.
Hello Mike. Mr. Miller knows how to advance job security. Little things do get remembered. Have good days!
By golly the farm is looking good an glad to see the new attachments are working great for you to l 👍 them.
32:02 you reallly should install gutters so you get even more water away from the building
btw in most european countrys pole barns dont fly legally - here in austria a pylon pole as foundation is limited to non commercial buildings no bigger than 800 square ft
if lifestock or people are expected to be sheltered you need concrete point footers with concrete anchors - regions with high ground moisture need the point footers to stick out 2 ft over the soil height and are required to use all pressure treated wood for any part of the structure closer than 4 ft to the ground
any insurance immedaitely tells you to go fuck yourself if a pole barn getrs blown on your tractor even f it was "structurally sound built " because it doesnt have the from buildings here expected longevity
as opposed to most of the USA tho rough cut lumber is legal for use here so long as its debarked to preempt any vermin infestation like woodworms
All coming together well on both farms bro, the buildings are looking good. Look forward to see you guys work on the floor of the big barn when the time comes. Safe travels. Ken.
County security system and key hiding places at the finest.
Mike, just an idea but how about having John Henry come back and put some shelving on the back open side over where you've got the auger, bush hog and other on the ground stuff where you could store mote odds and ends you need off the ground.
Odd lengths of tile, boxes of fittings and other stuff that doesn't need to be out of the weather just not exposed to the sun.
Joke for comment:
Did you know that if you hold a squirrel up to your ear,
you can hear what it sounds like to be attacked by a squirrel? 😸
Those two security cameras and the neighbors dog should keep the sticky fingers away. ✅️
Comment for the algorithm. Take a drink of pepsi every time Mike says "John Henry Miller" in this vidya lol
uhhh put some of that opaque fiberglass siding like every two or three panels spaced out on the building to allow sun light to come into the building but keep the weather out....
27:33 Aaron, the tile is round as are you. Though you're not 100+ inches around, you'll fit. :P
Great video DP and MBTS. You got the farm looking good. I have enjoyed the videos on it for sure.
You need to make a brush rake for Chris at Let's Dig 18. Or maybe AMI might be interested.
Thanks for the update, you have made a huge difference in the look and use of property and buildings. Looks like your contractor has done an excellent job of repairing of the buildings, always good to have someone you count a good job from.thanks again for the update, enjoyed watching.
You Remodelling the Farm to a efficent Garage for the complete Equipment. For all Year Times. Very good Idea. 👌👍
LT. DAN??? hope to see that, The building's are looking a lot better. Nice job.
Yes DP. You and all your friends have did a awesome job making this farm another working farm after all those years of don’t being a farm. Now you can look 👀 back at it and enjoy your work 😊❤. Now on to another one 😊
The farm has really come along great 👍
if sticky fingers ever come around... just put the word out n ill come help or do whatever i can n make sure sticky fingers no more
Yeah old Aaron is so proud of the POS trailer he got and wants to use it so bad. i could say it would be a part's trailer for tile plowing jobs. Like a lot of Ts and field carrots
maybe patent them?
Great purchase on the property and very wise renovations. You and my father would have seen eye to eye on just good enough will do the job as storage buildings do not actively produce profits. The only thing I added to the mix was being clean and very organized (I also did a lot of painting, Aaron and I agree on that). If I dropped dead, I don't want my wife stuck with a mess, hang an auction sign on the building and sell contents, then sell the building.
Coffees on! Fun times!! Aaron Rocks!! ;-)! Cheers!
The question is, If the building and property came up for sale, would you buy it?
Aaron said , their is a very good spot were the barn's part. That he could fit a work trailer in and nobody would know it was there.?
Heck Aaron [24:08] must be hard having to work with amateur excavator operators! 😂😂
I hope you get the millings as I would really like that vid. I do hope that you do get to Lt Dan as it is your passion project. If you do not I understand that as well.
the new farm is looking super nice. Hard work is paying off on this place. And hopefully a decent income off the farm and being put back in production.
A hint on your windowsills - as water drains off the window it will creep around the end of the board and start rotting. Suggest a simple fix. Get a battery powered rotary saw and cut a slot a half inch under the edge. The water will run to that and drip. Not into the wall or the whole sill. Slot is on the bottom edge.
Hay I was just thinking that would a perfect place to put the drag line in out of the winter weather the building wear the dozer is setting on the abounded farm
Buildings are looking look, but the biggest transformation is the farm. It is looking great.
Something tells me there’s gonna be a bunch of snakes showing up on the job sites. Your storage shed looking good.
