45 years ago I talked my Dad into taking the beater bar off of our manure spreader. We had such a large firewood pile outside that we could use the front end loader to load the wood into the spreader, then back into the wood shed and run the spreader to unload. Sure was quicker to stack the wood when it came to you. Always thought I was a genius for that idea but dad never said a word.
Trailer turned out great
You guys are awesome!! I love how no obstacle stands in your way. You will cut, burn, bend, beat, bang or grind it out of the way and get on with what needs to be done in short order.
I love the name of your current spreader....Slinger. Prefect name 😂
Love the tool "show and tell". I have several mystery tools that I have picked up at auctions. But also have some unique or special purpose tools that a lot of people have no idea what they are for. I love that you are rebuilding the spreader instead of scrapping it. Thanks for another great video.
LOL "Tool Time with the Gieroks"!
I used composite deck boards for the floors of my old spreaders, totally maintenance free and are still in excellent shape 25 years on.

@My Cancer Journey why are you back?

Nice job repurposing the spreader. Will be a very handy trailer.
Aaron Gierok never is slacking off. Repurposed equipment is a true measure of ingenuity. I always looked forward to what comes up next with something like this. We had an old spreader that kind of looked like that. It was a Schultz I believe.
Yes, I believe that is a Schultz.
I am almost certain that is a Schultz 110 model spreader, pre 1965 most likely. I sold them starting early 1970. They had wood sides in that timeframe,but older ones had steel sides. The wood block chain tightened by the gear box is original. Around 1980 they started using the long PTO shaft like yours. We sold most of the 110 with 15” rims for easier loading by hand.
Keep up the good videos, I enjoy them very much. All good memories from the past.
@@mikehasburgh7 thanks for commenting. We used our spreader for better than 40 years. I remember having to replace a bearing in front of the gearbox by the beaters it took us a couple of days to get a collar off. Tough business.
@@mikehasburgh7 I got an old Schultz Spreadmaster I still use. Has the side extensions and top beater. Its interesting the gear box is one spead for the apron, but those engineeers must have had the speed spot on because it spreads pack manure very evenly. I got mine from the original owner. They ordered it on 15" rims like you mentioned, but sprung for the tandem axle version. I got alot of looks when I first got it, told people that were here, hang on, I got to get my big tandem axle spreader out...............They think 195 NH or 3632 NI or something similar, and out I come around the corner with this tandem axle elf spreader. The looks were priceless. Either way, it was stored in bank barn when not in use and kept clean, can still read the decals on it.
Looks like a Kelly Ryan. I've got a Forage King that's similar. Thanks for the video.
I pour old motor oil on my spreader chains and floor each spring before use.
Great video! Happy easter to you and your family! 👍
Impressive work! You two work so good together! ❤
Someone has some serious chain saw skills. 👍
Never realized they were bigger at the back like that, makes sense. Laughed at the taper at end, chainsaw fired up and doing the job. Just love the old stuff, dirt cheap & gets it done, just like the new expensive stuff.
Very nice work on the floor. Chainsaw taper worked very good.
I've been wondering about the generator house. Glad to see it finished.
Dad keeps nicking up his hands.
I'm quite impressed..at first I thought this might be a shill for April 1st.. but soon noticed the integrity and Economy of the resourceful work any independent trade-Labor must engage to stay alive..and out of Debt!..nice work Fellas! 🚜
Back in the day, in our area we called that old style chain ‘flat iron’ chain, and with slats in the bottom of a spreader, combine, baler, etc. an apron chain. A real pain if one side broke and the other didn’t, that could tear stuff up real well. I always heard the tool used called a ‘chain detacher’.
Reminds me of our old Cobey manure spreader
Love the videos and keep up the great work. And repurposing an old implement. Is awesome.
Looks like a useful piece of equipment now. Good job as always Gentlemen.👍😀
Man I have two of those old chain anvils! Your dad just showed me how not fight it! Been taking the long way around... Thanks!
Great job by team Gierok! Wish your family a Blessed and Happy Easter
I’ve never seen a chain splicer or a roller chain vice. Want one of each😊. Love repurposing old gear. Some projects sit along the rock pile for years before you get time to do it. Farming is a graduate course in engineering.
Excellent work. Good to see the life of equipment extended. 👍
I have dealt
with lots of that style chain, but have never seen that tool. Wish we had one.
Your skills are awesome
once again another great and the work that you do is really awsome. your dad is very skilled with the chain saw and it is always neat to watch him when he works with them. Cant wait to see the next vid. Have a great Easter
Looks good I miss doing stuff like that
Nice job ! Regards from germany
Dude!!! I need that tool, we have a new idea that uses that style chain, thanks for the info that it exists!
It caught my attention when you were running the apron chain over the new floor, the chain is installed backwards from the usual manure spreader chain. The floor will clean better when the normal sharp corner of the cross angle irons are running towards the rear. Great little unit for firewood or sawdust.
Now we need to see a rivet tool! And an alligator clips for putting belts together!
I won't rat you out, if you don't tell my boss I took a nap while watching this video, oh wait I'm my own boss, so I guess it's ok😂😂
New idea is my guess or Minnesota I like your videos keep making them
That turned out really nice. My grandpa had one of those chain tools. I had never seen one used before. Now I know how it works. Thank you for sharing your shop day. Stay safe, and God bless.
Soak the floor with linseed oil.. Will save the broads and last much longer.
Got to save the BROADS
Another great video 😊
Nice trailer
I now know I have a link tool, never knew what it was until watching your video.
Great to see you guys finding uses for what most would consider scrap.
The generator shed, don't you need some screen to keep birds and critters out?
thank you
Wow,does anyone in this family ever sit down and rest?Just milking the cows and taking care of the young stock must take alot of your day.And just what is the deal with your using a chain saw in almost everything you do? I bet you have a Chainsaw just to carve up the Turkey at Thanksgiving dinner!! It is great fun to watch you make something broken in to something useful.Keep the videos coming. Thanks 😊.
I wish I had 1/10th the chainsaw skills George does!!
You haven't lived until you have laid under a loaded spreader, putting T links back together . Good times .😝
👍👏😊 Thanks. (Naaman)
You can find most anything you need for building small sheds at Menards bargain spot. But you need to be early and often.
I remember that tool I was a we Ladd a lot of implement
S had that chain luv ❤ your video s happy Easter to your family
I have used an old spreader for a grain cart. You use what you have.
Huh. That ain’t a bad idea
Minnesota manure spreader. Made at Stillwater state prison. Stillwater Mn. 1960’s
Nice job men.
good video and job may have been a new idea. take care, be safe and well.
When I was on the farm I always carried a section tool while mowing hay.
Ah the old using a fence stretcher to reassemble detachable chain trick. Used to do that a lot around here.
Farm Eze maybe, I'm not sure. That's putting old equipment back to good use. Automatic wood unloader haha. Good work guys.
After i seen your other former manure trailer converted to hauling stuff i have been keeping my eyes out.. need a heavier trailer to haul various materials up and out of the hollars....
Interesting video
Looks like a New idea
Great chainsaw work
Little time and money and you have yourself a good wood hauler! Are them slats on the apron chain backward? not that it matters on their it will still work just fine just curious!
cool
As usual another excellent video!! Great idea the way you fixed that old manure spreader up. Reworking it like that makes it useful for many different things. You could even use it for silage.
Keep up the great videos. 😊
Maybe U can put silage in that trailer and a side shoot on the tail and drive along heifer barn and feed like U had a feed wagon and not have so much shoveling to do
Hey appreciate the video guys I am not one to push my thoughts on anyone else's work but the little hut as you called it I would suggest one thing try to make sure it is not in a lot of traffic of your animals or human with the edges of that metal roofing is very dangerous as for as cutting you long and deep I have put a lot of the same metal on a lot of houses I have been doing roofing for 43 years and I've seen that stuff cut a few people it's not a pretty sight just saying
My dad bought a couple of old corn picker wagons and did the same thing by putting new floors in we use them for hauling fire wood and scrape metal they work good because they are tall and have swing doors on them
It might also work to bring silage up to the heifers where you can use the pto to unload with
Like it
Just curious , how many cords of wood have gone through this winter in the boiler ?
As always, a great video. I miss you guys broadcasting in 1440k, is there any chance of bringing it back? The picture was much cleaner and crisper. Thanks...
Careful when you go to change those Wheels. If that actually happens to be off a Dodge truck the left hand studs will be left-hand threads
Would be a cool feeder trailer as well that old manure spreader🤩
Think the spreader is a Kelly Ryan made here in Nebraska. Had one. When I had to fix the the apron chain it was a little dirtier .
👍👍👍
It looks to me. like a Colby we had one years ago after years of service, we cut off the beaters and used it to haul dirt. we mounted a long cylinder up by the tongue
It's ok If you slack off newly married u need to save energy, You have more important job to do.😊❤😊
Had a case/white dealership near by that took beaters out of honey wagons they took on trade and sold them as self unloading firewood trailers. That's all I can think of watching you redo this spreader
Remember using the chain tool. My parents let me run the farm for a week while they took a vacation. One of the Gehl wagons had a problem with the chain while I was using it to put fresh green chopped hay into the feeder bunks in our permanent pasture. I got it fixed. Will those carriage bolt heads on the outer boards get worn by the chain links? If only getting light use, that may not matter much.
Have never seen that tool before
👍
You need to do something with the coners of that roof. The cattle will cut thenselfs for sure. Old split ring rims are very dangerous, most tire shops will no longer work on them because they are so dangerous. Buy a used newer one peice rim so no one ends up dead.
Pretty sure in the video he said he wasn’t using them…..
I am worried that a human being is going to walk up to start that generator and cut a cheek to the bone walking into a sharp corner.
@@nalley6815 I think he said he was going to find new tires not different rims. The split rims are the dangerous issue. If they fly apart when you fill them with air you are dead.
@@marklen2322 maybe I heard wrong then idk. But agree. Split rim wheels need to go in the trash
I would like to hear your dads thoughts on manure spreaders her has has had over the years! The do get the crap beat out of them! Pun intended lol
No farm woodworking project is done right unless you get the chainsaw out!
When my grandma was young, she got ran through a manure spreader because her and her dad were hauling wood with it with her riding in it and he accidentally hit the PTO lever, she somehow survived with no major injury’s
When I got out of high school a dairy farmers boys were at the ball diamond saying they were going to be as strong as their dad, I told them you better get rid of that round baler! You and your father are old school.
schultz spreader I ran the wheels off of one
I’m thinking it a old Coby spreader
Do you need worker for farm now I'm working in Portugal🇵🇹
Looks like an old international spreader.
Young man yrs ago I went to a farm sale. Got to the manure spreader the auctioneer said , sell the political platform!
It's cool but seems like chain speed is slow....
@9:32 If you got that tool, you've probably been farming for a while. 😉
Scrap pile engineering at its finest!!!
I'm not sure what brand the spreader is, But the wheels look like the ones on old Chevy trucks late 40's thru mid 50's most of those had the three piece wheel not as dangerous as the ones that split in the middle, But still dangerous.

New idea?
Stick it in a lagoon of WD40 overnight !
He stopped working for 37 mins Dad.
A manure spreader is the only piece of equipment on a farm designed to kick the crap out of itself.... 💩💩💩💩 😅
