I know this video showed us you working, but as a kid, my Dad knew he could get me to pick up rocks in our one field if I could drive the tractor & wagon. The Farmall A-M series are some of the prettiest tractors our nation ever produced !
If I might speak for others on the channel, it has been our pleasure to follow along these past seasons. Always interesting to see and feel the passion for the land and the machines on it.(and those rock dropping glaciers have a lot to answer for)
What a series! It's awesome how you put all your equipment to good use! I've learned a lot from watching these vidoes! I can't wait for the next x231 installments!
Nice use of vintage cultivator and tumble bug. Peaceful ending to your video as you drove out of sight. Does the H get a nice cozy shed to winter in? Thank you Squatch! 🚜👍
Yes sir! That ol' H Farmall won't back down from very much! We had an H years ago, and that was one good tractor. I'd love to find a row crop front end M Farmall with the diesel engine.
What's not to love about this video? From the H grunting and nearly spinning out the first bucket full of wet red sand, to the beautiful lichen covered cultivator, and finally the H driving up the access road you built to this project with its cylinder head held high. A job well done this year by all the equipment old and new, and of course by the narrator and videographer Mr. SQUATCH253. Nice work Sir. It will be time to put the fancy new truck away soon and bring out Old Blue for the winter. Looking forward to 5J1113 and X231 projects over the winter. Oh and Senior working on the M as well.
I love the sound of these old tractors, especially when the governor kicks in under load. My dad's 1941 H sounded a bit different. The door to our shed was fairly low so the top pipe on the muffler was cut and re-welded at about a 45 degree angle.
It’s amazing how long stuff will last when it’s built well. Aside from mostly minor maintenance or the occasional rebuild, it’s amazing to see how this old equipment lasts. ✌🏻 peace Squatch
Great camera angles loved how you placed it to show how the machine works. Plus love hearing the old H lug along brings back memories of my dad's old H. I see you also had a bumper crop rocks too
Great video. Love watching that old machinery work. It's hard to believe the amount of rain we've had this year in MN and it all seams to come on the weekend. More coming next weekend and some flurries along with it. Won't have much of a fall I'm thinking.
It has been a fun summer and fall for watching your videos. The only reason there can be some thumbs down is people are sad the dirt work is over for the year.
Woot, I got the 1k like. Great watching your Vids M8. Here in my district in NZ vintage is huge. So i personally love seeing these old girls earning their keep still...👊👍🎯🥝🇳🇿
As you say that H is some machine worth her weight in gold all what she does and that tumble bug, never seen one before only on you're channel, what a cool bit of kit.
New subscriber. Love your videos. So cool to see that old equipment still working. It’s been wet down here in Ohio this year as well. Keep great videos coming
This RAIN. Man, it never quits if it were a little colder we would have some serious snowfall. Finished up the H bolster rebuild last night. Not too bad. Sure do enjoy your H videos. They are about the best all around tractor, sure miss jumping on mine!
I have an h and a new holland 66 baler, watching this gives me the encouragement to keep moving forward. I am not rich so i want to farm my 40 with old equipment. I am always asked why i work on such junk ,but i really enjoy it. Thanks squatch.
@@scottcollins4361 junk is when you have to call a tech with a computer to do a tune up. Great equipment is when all you need is a flat head screwdriver and an adjustable wrench
Watching someone move dirt around can be boring, however, your placement of the camera adds considerable interest to the scenario, including operation of the implements. I suspect a course in professional video presentation somewhere in your background. At any rate--well done.
Taking your day job in to consideration you know as well as I do how things built now days will never last like things built back in the early to mid 1900's!....A good northern Minnesota winter/freeze/thaw cycle will do your site some good and really get that ground to settle in good and firm.
You have some really interesting and obviously highly serviceable older equipment. It seems to me such useful equipment should be rewarded with a proper paint job during the upcoming winter months.
Really enjoy the old stuff working! That tumble bug is unique, we have one that goes on a 9n Ford!!! It’s mounted. That H is a dandy! Looks and sounds new...
I just love that moss patina on old farm machinery. I had a lot on my old chicken house I am remodeling. Got the back half of the roof on this morning. It get working projects by yourself.
Great achievement all that land work usin the old iron I love playin with old tractors an equipment when I get the chance, just feel so much more in touch with the old tractors an equipment 👍👍💪💪
Aww quite the rock garden you have there .... you just got rid of all them and the next day you have to start all over ! I'm guessing too much fertilizer ! :-)
Really enjoyed this video,the old implements and the H Farmall really did the trick!The end of the video sure was a nice picture,rain and all!Don't know if anyone has asked this Question before,but why did you chose your handle,Squatch253?I'm sure you guys will be glad to get the M running,a little more HP.I really enjoy your Dad in these Videos,I can see where you get your work ethics.Thanks for Sharing ,the time it takes to produce a video is quite alot of time,and I just wanted to say I appreciate it!God Bless!
Lovely crop of rocks again - so soon after the last harvest too. Other folks have to make do with pumpkins at this time of year but you can grow and pick rocks whenever you need them.
Well I must say, you and your antique equipment did some fine work. Your land is in better shape. Now you can put your feet up by the wood stove and take it easy through the winter, right?😎👍👏
Always the way.... yesterday was a nice day but I was at work. Today I have a day off and wanted to get some stuff done outside, but it’s raining! Arrrrrgh!
Just a suggestion, in keeping with the period, some sisal rope or even some well weathered baler twine might be more appropriate than bright yellow marine line on the tumble bug. :-) The closing shot was perfect symbolism for the end of the series as the H disappeared into the shadows and over the hill. Your videography is always well done.
Hi Squatch. You're obviously appreciated by your viewers. Me too. Nice ending. I imagine that it's tiring work doing the earth moving and making a film about it at the same time. Have to keep coming back and repositioning and resetting the camera ......or did you leave that out there for the winter along with the tumble bug ? 😁 Cheers. BobUK.
IT may not move as much or as fast as today's equipment but it does work. When it was built it did the job as it was the best that was to be had in the time it was available.
Not right, we have to buy rocks. Here you are growing them and doing a great job. Must have added lost of Lime and Fertilizer to get that good of a crop. Keep up the great work, and looking forward to the winter videos also.
That isn't dirt- looks like pure clay! my property has a lot of clay, fine silt, and rocks. I have a lot of work anytime I need to dig a hole or move stuff. I love the sound of those old gas engine machines. The diesels too, but the gas engines have such a beautiful putter to them.
I am surprised you could do any work with all rain we all got great video except for the ending next time you should Ride in to the sun you now the West maybe next time
I know this video showed us you working, but as a kid, my Dad knew he could get me to pick up rocks in our one field if I could drive the tractor & wagon. The Farmall A-M series are some of the prettiest tractors our nation ever produced !
Man that old H has a good governor setup!
That low angle fall light at the end was just beautiful.
Great old tractors. Love that little tumble bug too! Great job!
If I might speak for others on the channel, it has been our pleasure to follow along these past seasons. Always interesting to see and feel the passion for the land and the machines on it.(and those rock dropping glaciers have a lot to answer for)
Your videos, your work and your character are soothing for the soul. Thanks!

Looks like an airport runway! I dearly like hearing the 4-banger come under a load. Good job, Toby!
@@squatch253 Winter floods and heaves and thaws will help a lot. Looks good to me. Bop can fine tune it with the 212!
That tumble bug is so hypnotic to watch!
Yes sir! That ol' H Farmall won't back down from very much! We had an H years ago, and that was one good tractor. I'd love to find a row crop front end M Farmall with the diesel engine.
All your videos are great, can’t wait to see more on the old Minneapolis Moline.

Great ending, you riding off into the sunset like the westerns use to do!
By the way, hope to see your Dad again on the engine project!! Really enjoy his commentary when working on it!!!
Same here, another great series and Sr. does great videos too
Colin you bet! Great channel...,,
Looking good. I bet the Kubota won't last as long the H. Lol
I love the sound of these old tractors, especially when the governor kicks in under load. My dad's 1941 H sounded a bit different. The door to our shed was fairly low so the top pipe on the muffler was cut and re-welded at about a 45 degree angle.
These old irons, cultivator and tumblebug are actully working!
It’s amazing how long stuff will last when it’s built well. Aside from mostly minor maintenance or the occasional rebuild, it’s amazing to see how this old equipment lasts. ✌🏻 peace Squatch
I was 5 years old when that tractor was made. I started driving the H when I was 10 great tractor and great video.
Great camera angles loved how you placed it to show how the machine works. Plus love hearing the old H lug along brings back memories of my dad's old H. I see you also had a bumper crop rocks too
New GoPro is working out great as is all the old equipment. I can't believe you got that ten thousand dollar sweat shirt wet. Lol
Great video. Love watching that old machinery work. It's hard to believe the amount of rain we've had this year in MN and it all seams to come on the weekend. More coming next weekend and some flurries along with it. Won't have much of a fall I'm thinking.

Awesome series, loved every episode! I love that tumblebug
That's a great crop of rocks you grew there.
Loved the great camera views, that's some hard working machinery you have.
Gotta just love the old iron as nothing in this Century will be around at that age moving dirt or disking the ground
As you say that H is some machine worth her weight in gold all what she does and that tumble bug, never seen one before only on you're channel, what a cool bit of kit.
Awesome shots Squatch. Love that tumble bug!
I have an H using the pto with a log splitter and keeping a tarp over crank case body as rain water keeps fouling the oil! Thanks for the Video!
New subscriber. Love your videos. So cool to see that old equipment still working. It’s been wet down here in Ohio this year as well. Keep great videos coming
Amazing that you were able to get in there and work after all that rain you got before.
I think I've enjoyed watching this series about as much as any of them. Sure makes me miss my ol H those are some dependable tractors
This RAIN. Man, it never quits if it were a little colder we would have some serious snowfall. Finished up the H bolster rebuild last night. Not too bad. Sure do enjoy your H videos. They are about the best all around tractor, sure miss jumping on mine!

Another bumper crop of rocks, Grew up on H's M's 300 series 400 series then 706, 806, 1066, 1408.
Great shots of the tumblebug when the camera was on the frame of the scraper. Thanks!
Squatch you forgot your camera............ ............. ............👍☔️

New meaning to RAISING rocks.

You sure moved a lot of dirt and grew some decent rocks a job well done.
Yep quite the rock garden he has there and I think he is over fertilizing them ! :-)
@@Justchuck69 Apparently so. LOL
Very very nice job. Really enjoyed following your progress through out the summer. Thank you for letting us tag along.
Just one word, beautiful thanks
It looks like snow for us on the western side of Minnesota. The mad scramble begins to get everything put away before it hits!
Live old equipment! Congrats! Great job!
Great to see the old gear working so efficiently.
Really enjoy the old stuff working! That tumble bug is unique, we have one that goes on a 9n Ford!!! It’s mounted. That H is a dandy! Looks and sounds new...
Looks like the rain helps grow a lot of rocks up there! :-)
We like the fade-away, complete with frog or toad
narration!

As the hero rides off into the sunset. LOL You should have the Big M to help with the action next year anyway. :-)
New camera is doing great with the low angle light, focus everything. Good job.
Looks so good now not much for next summer to get it draining how you want it too

A worthwhile job.

Great video. If I get to buy the farm next door maybe I will post a few of the ideas I have for the property.
Thanks and keep them coming.
Your new camera is great! Sharp, clean and sound fantastic.Keep the videos coming!
Well I must say, you and your antique equipment did some fine work. Your land is in better shape. Now you can put your feet up by the wood stove and take it easy through the winter, right?😎👍👏
Nicely done, We had a super C at our place. It was a good ole unit.
Very cool! That tumblebug is just the coolest idea.
I hope you can find the camera in the spring. :-)
:-)
Time to winterize ole girl.Until spring.
Hi, great stuff, keep 'em coming, please.
Already a nice harvest, of rocks.
Excellent video of the mechanisms in action!
The rake is the tool, remember using it after plowing to break up the freshly broken soil...doing x patterns..back in the mid80's looong time ago
Always the way.... yesterday was a nice day but I was at work. Today I have a day off and wanted to get some stuff done outside, but it’s raining! Arrrrrgh!

Epic. Farmer drives away in his tractor and vanishes beyond the horizon.
Not right, we have to buy rocks. Here you are growing them and doing a great job. Must have added lost of Lime and Fertilizer to get that good of a crop.
Keep up the great work, and looking forward to the winter videos also.
Thx for the ride!
Fun for a city kid like me to see how land clearing and leveling is done.
I don't know if you see comments on old videos but, it would be nice if this series was linked in a single playlist.
It looks really nice sir!
Can't get over how crisp the videos are with the new camera.
The end scene was perfect!
Very nice video, I see you left your camera also there for the Winter and the battery run flat very quick lol
Excellent
That isn't dirt- looks like pure clay! my property has a lot of clay, fine silt, and rocks. I have a lot of work anytime I need to dig a hole or move stuff. I love the sound of those old gas engine machines. The diesels too, but the gas engines have such a beautiful putter to them.
How's Squatch Sr. coming on the engine rebuild? Looking forward to another video.
You should title this video as "Riding of Into the Sunset on Farmall H".
Put all them rocks in your neighbor's yard 🤣
I sure love this channel. Super ending on this installment too.
I am surprised you could do any work with all rain we all got great video except for the ending next time you should Ride in to the sun you now the West maybe next time
Lol! Just giving you a hard time!!👍👍😂
Can't wait to see more x231 stuff
That's very fertile land. It grows a lot of rock.
That looks like some good land to grow rocks on lol
will you put a cover crop down maybe rye grass?
still ready for another hard day of work.,, the H that is.
not bad for a old row crop tractor
