- Taken Nov 10th 2022. I got an early start to the day at the farm cause I got a lot to get done today as they say rain tomorrow. I got to the farm and got the auger set up and everything ready to go when my cousin gets there with the semi to load the trailer. I got a log hauled up to ware I can get to it and started disking up ruts left by the sprayer so I dont have to deal with them in the spring time. Soybeans got loaded out disking got done and got the head off the combine and cleaned up and everything put away in the barn and even loaded up the wood and logs from the tree out front Craig took out by the road so by the end of the day I was tired to say the least ! I was still looking for wheat seed but as you see in the video Friday it was raining (1 1/2") and Saturday it was snowing (2") ! After those 2 days it stayed wet and cold and wheat idea went out the window ! After a few day off to take it easy the start of a new project came around ! More on that later. I hope you enjoyed watching how my day went getting a bunch done as a 1 man show. Bandit
I like the 4400. Brings back memories and more memories. Thanks for being back online Bandit! I look forward to your videos.
Bill it was a very busy fall and that day for sure was busy, I think I got there about 7am and didnt leave till after 6pm and it was non stop all day trying to get everything done before the rain set in. This might have been the end of farming for the year but it was just the start of a new project on the farm that I'm still cleaning up from ! Next video or 2 you'll get to see the start of it and boy was it worth it ! Bandit
Awesome to see you. Hell yes keep farming.
Oh I got plans within plans for the future ! Bandit@@briangleason5597
Hey Mr Bandit, refreshing to see an old school farmer on here. shows it can still be done without all the fancy stuff. GOD BLESS
I have everything paid for and plan to keep it that way for a long time to come. I farm the old school way with out all the fancy stuff cause when it brakes down it gets really expensive to fix and I wont be paying $350 an hour for a dealer flunky to come out and hook a computer up to tell him whats wrong with it. Nope if it brakes down I'll fix my old stuff myself and save all that money ! LOL A penny saved is a penny saved by me for my own pocket not the dealers ! Bandit
My son really liked your comment. He said I can’t believed he replied. I said he is only utuber that does. Happy new year old friend.
You have to tell them story about lending George Clooney money. You had some funny stories.
I try to answer everyone that comments but sometimes they slip by me and I dont see them. Right now between the cable issue and a little computer update thats screwy I just havent been able to post anything. I've tried 3 or 4 time to upload a video to youtube but it keeps saying its incomplete drew to a glitch in uploading. I hope now after the first of the year the cable company can get it fixed so I can get posting video's again. I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Safe and wonderful New Year. Say Hi to everyone for me and it was great to talk to you too . Bandit
LOL people would never believe them ! LOL But who knows ? Bandit
Did you have storm damage cuz ?
Successful day 👍🏻🇺🇸
Very successful day indeed ! All I know is was sure a long one and I was glad when it was over ! LOL But as you see it turned cold wet and nasty after this day but I was really glad I was done for the year ! But this also was the start of a new project on the farm that got done over the next couple of months and took till the spring to clean up from ! Bandit
Great vid, keep 'em coming.
I got 6 or 7 more months to go to get caught up again ! So lots of video's to come ! Bandit
Hey bandit how you been
Busy ! LOL I'm still waiting on the cable company to get the internet fixed so I can load video's again. Cant do much when it glitches out every 5 to 10 minuets, I really miss posting ! I got really busy last year and I had to let posting video's to keep up with what I was doing. In December I switched cable companies because of cost and of course had trouble right off the bat and couldnt post anything because of it but the last 2 weeks they have been out everyday around here fixing the lines and it seams to be working better now so I hope to start posting again very soon. There is a lot of video's to make and post for you guys I just got to figure out how to put them together. Bandit
Glad you were able to get your crop out before the weather turned bad.
Man I'm telling you when they say rain on Friday for like 5 days strait it really lights a fire under you ! I started cutting on Tuesday and ran into the ruts and did a number on the cycle bar and spent Wednesday morning replacing 8 feet of cycle sections and I had already talked to me cousin about when he got done (he was a mile from me cutting his last beans) to come over to help me finish cutting mine with me. To get done and have a day to load out the beans and get the disking done and everything cleaned off and put up I got really lucky ! I was still trying to find wheat seed but after that Saturday I knew that ship had sailed and it wasnt going to happen, But I did try. Bandit
I have a 4400 I’ve Been watch your video’s to help me work on mine . thanks for making it a little easier to work on it
Thank You for watching my video's, I try to make them so others can learn from them and not to make the mistakes I made and it might make there job a little easer seeing how something is done. On these combines there really isn't anything easy to work on ! LOL When dad bought his we only used it 2 years and he sold it to a guy (who never came back after it !) so we never really worked on it. When I bought mine and broke the one drive belt I decided to change them all as they needed it and on these combines there are so many of them it was a lot easer to change them all but there was nothing easy about it. I think it took about 2 weeks to go threw them all and there are a lot of them that if you broke one you might end up taking 5 others off to change it. My old 95 I know for a fact you could change all the belts in a days time and be running again. I hope my video's help anyone working on one of these to make the job a little easer. There good combine and do a good job but there not as easy to work on as the old 95 is thats for sure. I'm just lucky as both the 4400's are first year machines so the parts will interchange pretty easy, But there are differences between the 2 that are noticeable between them. I just hope yours isnt a gas like mine is and you dont have to take the starter off, It's a stand on your head affair ! LOL JD could have made this so much easer by using the new style starter on them instead of the old 3 bolt style you cant put a socket on ! I glad you enjoyed watching my video's and I hope to put out more showing how to farm on the small side and make a little money doing it. Bandit
That tractor and disk look good together !
I looked a long time before I found that White 263 disk and on the old 1850 it does a great job for me. If a disk is not adjustable I really dont want it but this one is easy to adjust and I really like it and its the perfect size for the 1850. Bandit
@@banditfarmer1900 I agree I hate that you can't buy disk that you can adjust the gang angles !!!
@@scottharvold6286 A non adjustable disk to me is useless simply because not all ground is the same and you need to be able to change it as the ground changes field to field. Sometimes you might need to set it like your going to plow it when you might need to set it light just to turn it a little. I have one disk (MF) that is not adjustable at all and its good for a 1st or 2nd pass but it aint worth a hoot to finish with, Thats whare the old MM disk really shines cause the disk does such a good job. My MM White Bush Hog and IH disks are all adjustable but the MF disk isnt so it dont get used that much. Its nice to be able to make a change if you need to and that what makes these kind of disks worth more. Bandit
Hey bandit i keep looking for new videos. Also if you could look around in your area for a few acres for me and family to come. I been looking just inside of Kentucky. Roy
Come back bandit
Howdy Roy, Things have been a bit hectic the past year and I've been really busy. In November I switched cable companies and have been dealing with a problem with the internet connection being choppy and cant get a video loaded, I've tried 9 times so far without success so far but there still working on it. There was 3 pieces of property that sold within a mile of me that really shocked me price wise, 21 acres of vacant ground for million 15 acres vacant ground up the road for $19000 an acre and 8 acres down from me with a couple of barns a pond and the house that needs completely redone for $280000 ! Man land prices have really gone threw the roof around here ! But there are some deals to be had but they dont last long but I'll keep an eye open and will let you know if I find anything. Bandit
That is really high priced. Do you still have my number?
@@farmerjackandroy Roy I've waited to write this and have been looking and to tell the truth I cant find my book with everyone's name and numbers wrote down in it, So could you send me yours again ? To say I was shocked is an understatement on these land prices around here in the last year. So many farms have been busted up and sold off its not funny, 4 places within a mile of the farm in the last year have been broken up and sold off and its sad to see happen. Bandit
Nice video
Hi bandit. Monday afternoon. I see Tyler sent you a message. We watched you after Christmas breakfast. My sister and her husband love your video. I think you got a couple new fans. Happy new year. Package should be leaving this week I hope. Take it easy. When you feel like it. We will be waiting.
President's day farm sale here in urbana do you wanna go
Richard will probably be there
Well on Monday I'm headed to Archbold Ohio to get some stuff I bought at there sale. I'll pass close by headed up 75 and I think its going to be a long day of driving getting there and back. Bandit
Wow, I didn't realize the difference in size between the 4400 and the 8820 was so drastic. That 8820 is a beast! But really, for smaller farmers like you and me, the 4400 is fine. I think mine is just the right size for my operation. Wish they still made combines that size, but manufacturers don't think about us small guys anymore.
When I pulled in that morning and saw them setting there it was like WOW ! I got to show this to you guys, There is really a big difference in size between them. For me the 4400 is just fine and lets face it I might not be a big fan of these combines but when one pops up with 1200 hours and one owner for sale for $1000 I would have been a fool not to have bought it cause when would you ever get the chance to buy another at that price. You always hear about this kind of thing long after it was sold and its always ah crap I would have bought that for that price ! The equipment manufactures really dont consider you a real farmer unless you need something with an 8 row corn head ! Well all that does is drive up the price on good older and smaller equipment like we use, And thats cool with me cause that means its worth a lot more than I give for it ! In 10 years can you even think of how big a new combine will be ? What ever it is I'll still be using my old 4400 or 95 and smiling the hole time ! Bandit
@@banditfarmer1900 Yep - You got that right. The big guys can do what they want, and so will I. Pretty soon, a guy would have to make a shed door 30 x 30 to get the combine in without the head. 🤣🤣🤣
@@pagrainfarmer Have you seen the one built in Germany (I think) that goes down the road sideways because its so wide ? Biggest combine I've ever seen, Makes me think of an old song, Give me 40 acres and I'll turn this rig around ! LOL Getting bigger and bigger is fine but what about the smaller farmers ? How does a guy farming 800 acres afford to buy a new combine ? I guess he could if he was Cole the corn star ! LOL I wouldnt even want to think about making those payments ! Heck I wouldnt give that for a house let alone a combine ! LOL Bad part is that million dollar combine can be taken out by a simple field mouse ! LOL At least I can work on all my old stuff and I'm happy with that . Bandit
@@banditfarmer1900 Me too! I like the old stuff for exactly that reason - you can work on them without hooking up a computer or anything like that. The small farmer (like us) still has his place and I think these big companies are missing something by basically ignoring us and focusing on the big guys. One thing about my equipment that makes me different than most of my neighbors and friends - my equipment is all paid for. That's HUGE!
@@pagrainfarmer I know what you mean ! I'm the same way and got everything paid for and I intend on keeping it that way. I figured out a long time ago that your better off farming the way you can afford to farm to and dont go crazy buying new stuff ! I've learned a few things over the years that a lot of the younger guys havent even thought about yet but I have learned to say When ! 4 little letters but so important to figure out, But once you do farming gets a lot easer ! Bandit
You still farming haven’t seen u on TH-cam lately
I'm still farming and filming about everyday but I've been really busy and cant get time to make and load the video's on youtube right now. 2 years of dealing with kidney stones then the hernia and dealing with a Covid like illness that slowed me down, Finally I got to feeling better and I've got 3 years of stuff to catch up on and I've gotten a lot done. The last couple of days its been raining off and on and have taken it easy for a change witch I really havent done all year ! But when I get to start posting again (soon I hope) and you guys see what I've been up to all year you'll get to see how busy I've been and will agree it was worth it . Lots of big projects got done this year and they required a lot of work to get them done. Be on the look out for video's to come out soon. Bandit
Thanks buddy talk to you soon. And it's Kyle...
Merry Christmas bandit ! Was nice talking to ya last night. We spent most of Christmas Day watching your old videos, the kids said there’s bandit up to his old shenanigans again ! Ha . Aunt Pam and uncle Casey’s first time . They really enjoyed your cooking show ! Uncle Darrell, Brady and Ben really liked watching the equipment tour shows . Ralph and I enjoy the shop and farming videos ! Heck there all good ! Marilyn, Lisa and Katie are hoping for an up date soon and gonna put alittle 📦 together for ya 😉. 🍪! Hopefully it ends up in the right town this time 🤦 one thing we know if it doesn’t old bandit will find a way to get it home ! Take care Don , have a great Christmas and holidays . Take care hopefully talk soon . say hi to the family !
Hey bandit were you been
Man this year has been a really busy one for me, Lots of big projects done and I just ran out of time to get video's out. I've been videoing all year but when you leave the house by 7am and dont get home till 9 10 o'clock at night and got things to do there the video's got to wait. But harvest is over and things have finally slowed down to ware I can think about how I'm going to cram all of the footage into video's to make sense of the year so be on the look out for video's to start coming out again. Bandit
I just read this comment. I glad you are well. Thought the worst.
@@rce8540 It has truly been one of those years for me, In fact this has been the first time sense last early spring I've had 3 or 4 days ware I could kick back and relax and not worry about anything for a change and it feels great ! Oh well I got plenty of stuff to work on before long when I get back at it. I've had a couple interesting comments on the turkey video, Some people just dont get it ! LOL I hope you all are doing good and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Say hi to everyone for me and I send my best to you guys. Bandit
Hi bandit my wife asked this morning what happened to bandit farmer. Let me know how you are. I will try calling you tonite. We sent you a package way back. Take care old friend.
Ol bandit needs a nice secretary or something to help get these videos out . Big job with all the other stuff going on I’m sure. Hope all is well Don .
Your right Tyler. Ever heard the song. Not as young as I once was.
Maybe you should put that 925 on the ol 4400 and take it for a spin! Lol. Jokes aside, its good to see you uploading again. If you ever need me to edit anything for you, just let me know. Take care Bandit.
I dont think the old 4400 would even pick up a 925 header ! Heck the 443 corn head makes the tail end light so a 925 would have the tail end in the air ! LOL If I dont get caught up I might take you up on that idea ! Bandit
Any update on the 1850 injector pump or are you still running the loaner pump from Harry?
I'm still running the loaner pump on it for now, I still havent found anyone around me that will work on it because of who rebuilt it. I've talked with ADS but I'm not crazy about UPSing an injector pump or paying again for a complete rebuild of a rebuilt pump. I talked with the guy down in Kentucky and told him what was going on and I'll more than likely I'll take it down to him when the time comes. I'm pretty sure its in the timing of the pump inside more than anything else because I can put an old pump on it and it runs great the way the engine is, Put the rebuilt pump on and it slobbers doesnt run smooth and the exhaust will burn your eye balls out ! But put the old leaking borrowed pump on it and it runs like a top , How else would it pull a 6 bottom plow like it does ? As soon as I get some time I'll be taking it to KY and have them look at it. Bandit
Bandit ho s A he blue truck doing good I hope
Well to tell the truth I havent touched it yet but I'm about to, I'm trying to catch up as best I can but the truck needs to comes out of the shop so I can clean the shop out ! LOL Bandit
Maybe just me but is the gear shit lever bent to the right on your 1850?
The 1850 was ordered from the factory to have a cab so it got the cab gear shift put in it when it was built, Its the same gear shift they put in the 2-105 with a cab. The is a 1965 1850 and you dont see many with this gear shift in them. Bandit
Bandit just checking on you buddy wanted make sure everything is okay with you and your mom and dad just been worried about ya... Don bud!! And as soon as I get me a truck and trailer man man you might have to do some trading or something for something you have I really took a interest in those Dodge trucks that you got I'm trying to get me some stuff that I can buy and sell and probably some of it that you would want I'm trying to work my way up to get me couple farm tractors to buy and sell and maybe we could trade on the Dodge semis when I get some farm tractors or something...
4400 had a son 8820 lol
Seeing them side by side like this really shows how big the 8820 is compared to the 4400 ! My cousin said after we got done he was impressed with the 4400 cause I was keeping right up with him round after round. All I know is I was really glad he came over to help me because the weather went wet and cold after this ! Bandit
Taken Nov 10th 2022.My day started out early getting everything ready to load soybeans we cut yesterday on my cousins semi truck. Quarter after 8 I had everything ready to roll and got on the 1850 and started disking in the ruts left by the spray guy so I dont have to deal with them next spring or holding water to make a mess for me. With the disking done and the truck loaded its time to put everything away and cleaned up. I got the head off theJD 4400 and spent a couple hours blowing it off and cleaning it up so it can go back into the barn for the winter. As the wore on I got everything put up and was helping my uncle Bill load up fire wood and logs from the tree out front Craig took out. By the end of the day I can truely say I was tired ! LOL But the last few days have been in the upper 70's low 80's and there calling for rain tonight and tomorrow and a chance of snow showers Saturday so I was really glad I got everything done today ! I still was trying to find some wheat seed to plant some but after the next 2 day that idea went out the window real quick ! We got a little over 1 1/2" of rain Friday witch was only in the 50's and Saturday I woke up to 38* and snow witch we ended up with about 2 inches and it stayed wet the rest of the year ! I'm really glad I got these all cut and loaded out and everything put away when I did. I hope you enjoyed watching me as I worked threw the long day as a one man show. After this was the start of a new project on the farm. More on that later. Bandit
