Thank you for watching and your comment
Love your channel !
Thank you for watching
@@oldfarmshow what shows are you going to try to make it to this year?
@@rudycarlson8245 hard to say
@@oldfarmshow so many of them, but which one of them do you want to try to make it to the most?
good stuff. reminds me of our local threshermens reunion. i do a documentary of the pontiac, illinois one every fall. we love to go there. we went as kids. now we are over 50 and we go every year. our dad was a mm and a mh and mf mechanic his whole life.
Great video as always! How many shows are you going to try to make it to this year?

Artifacts laying all over the feilds.I bet!!!!
There is an important lesson to be learned here. None of these tractors ever get a flat tire. It doesn't matter what kind of tread is used, the fact of the matter is that rubber and mud is slippery. The tread angle of tractor tires pushes mud and dirt out to the sides causing tractors to dig in and get stuck. Construction equipment, mining equipment, keeping tires on front end loaders is costing a fortune in replacement cost. Rubber is soft, weight is heavy, twisting turning rubber tires under load just tears them up and wears them out. Then you're looking at 2,000 to 50,000 per tire. Big mining trucks, 50,000 per tire. These heavy steel wheels do not wear out or go flat, and there is no mountain of old worn out steel wheels like there is rubber tires. These steel wheels have much better traction. That's how most people get hurt working on this heavy stuff is changing the tires. So, alot of companies could save a tremendous amount of money going with modern steel wheels with an effective tread pattern. They could be made road safe and not damage roads. We are going to have to return to the past in order to go forward. These tractors would run all day on just a little bit of coal to make steam. A steam flywheel engine can turn a series of generators and produce electricity burning very little coal. We are burning some 5 billion tons of coal to make steam for those turbines around the world, when a tractor like this can spin a flywheel and turn generators and run all day on a wheel barrow of coal. We are going to have to reexamine how we got to where we are and go back to it, as those days and ways brought forth growth, because they were efficient and less expensive with lower cost. Now cost has become so high not only are we unable to grow but we are unable to maintain. Very good video. LLXIIX77
Rubber tires are able to produce 30% more tractive force than iron of the same size.
