Hi,, I started following you guys because of all the Kubota stuff..an when you guys started building your building i noticed your son( Hunter).. I'm 57 an my wife is 56 an we also have a special needs son an daughter. So we can relate to you guy's some how.. I enjoy watching you do what you do..So mainly wanted to say hi, an love what you do.. We are from Covington tenn..
You will find that you can lift much more weight with the three point hitch than the loader. Put a drawbar across the arms, use a big clevis and wrap the chain around the post at ground level. This works great for regular farm fence posts not set in cement, but it is usually best to dig a bit around the cemented ones.
Mike you are one heck of a good machine operator. I’ve only been at it for a year and I can’t do what you’re doing with a loader and bucket and box blade yet. It’s amazing
Hey guy's me living in SC Rural King is no where around here. But we went to Fort Champbell Kentucky and on the TN. side there it was Rural King! After watching outdoors with the Morgans I felt Blessed to find a Rural King Store.
Melissa and Mike, we watch you Faithfully, love your familiness, we have learned so much, we are retired, and having fun, learning all the homestead information on the sites on UTube.
Found with when using the BX backhoe it wound move the tractor a lot but when the back tires were off the ground it help stop that some. Fantastic TH-cam! Been watching for years. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Mike, I recently bought a hydronic post puller. It’s a skid steer mount attachment that grabs the post and lifts it straight out of the ground. Works great for brush briars and small trees as well. Under a $1000. ......money well spent. I have about 200 t-posts to remove. Your project is looking great!
Good morning Mike and Melissa, you were able to save the fence and posts . They are reuse able for sure. Great job. I get a lot of entertainment from watching all of the Morgans and their TH-cam channels and they are all great. Thanks for sharing with us the footage of the nice Bucks roaming on your property. Stay safe out there and keep enjoying life.
Howdy Morgans, don't ya just hate it when you bend over to pick something up and your reading glasses fall off your head or out of your pocket giving ya something else to pick up. Kate is quite resourceful. She made corn milk, then with the leftover kernels and such she turned them into waffles! Levi making his own Maple syrup. Ty is one lucky little lad. Enjoying all the Morgan's TH-cam content. Thanks for sharing!!
Glad to see your yard is shaping up. Cant wait to see the finish product. I watch ALL of your videos....as well as Melissa's too. I loved when Hunter was judging the 3 dogs. Say hi the the Hunt Man !!
Good morning Mike and Melissa, you mentioned the rut in your area is on, here in central Pennsylvania it isn't on yet, been out hunting archery pretty much every day, still not on here, if its on there most likely be happening here very soon. I am about 125 miles from you. Be safe and thanks for bringing us all along on your journey, have a DAY!!!
Hello Morgans. Bennett from sunny California. I watch your channel every day. If I may make a suggestion. When pulling posts try wrapping around the bottom of the post. You will have more leverage when removing the posts.
Good morning everyone. At the tree farm there were strong south winds and 76 on Saturday, Sunday winds out of the north and 46. Back to the Stihl store today. Stay safe, be humble & kind and Have a day!
Hey there Morgans looks like fall is in full force looked a little cooler and the photos of the deer sweet love it. Looking toward the in the hobby barn work. Thanks for sharing
If you want to reuse your fence post. Don't do like some people that leave the concrete on the post. While the post is laying on the ground just hit the concrete a couple of times with a sledgehammer and it will fall right off. Use safety glasses. Way easier to set the post this way. Hope you have a great day.
Mike when you plan the pool thought make provision for heating the pool via solar. By inclosing the pool with alum foldaway door and poli-cob 65% daylight we use our pool 365 days a year, select water temp that suits our neads at no cost. Enclosing pool was the best investment, I can use the pool via my wheel chair, once in water I am nearly pain free. Son made a chair lift to access pool. Just a thought, make provision worst you never use it.
From someone in Florida, who has had several pools in the last 40 years or so, locate your new bathroom on the outside wall and cut in an additional door to the outside. Nothing worse than having to go in thru the building in a wet bathing suit to use the restroom. You still have time to change your floor plan.
Mike you remind me of my late brother-in-law his nick name was tinker he could run any machinery wire a house all self taught and would give you his shirt off his back if he asked you to. He could be busy working on something he would drop what he was doing because somebody needed help. With that I have to say you have made nothing into something that your family and friends will always have. Thank you for sharing your video with us. Hello Hunter. Ed
If you are not going to reuse that chain link, you could put it in the floor o& the hobby barn. We did that back in the early 80’s with a garage we built. We used the chainlink as re-mesh for the floor and it worked great. We never had an issue with the floor.
The thing I missed most about this time of year in PA. Was the fall harvest and the Apple festivals and other attractions. A lot of history in all of PA, Pittsburg was a major major player in the growth of the US. Most people forget.
Mike, for years I operated forklifts. One of the worst things to have to put up with is uneven forks. One fork goes into the pallet, the other under the pallet. Slide forks together, put strap around both forks. If they bend, they bend together.
My forks get uneven too. Just get the high one up under something big and heavy and lift up to bend it down to match the other one. This will take several trials to do because you don't want it to be lower than the other one for sure.
@@realairplane261 I have done that too. Remove the fork from the forklift. Then you burn a hole in the tip of the fork. Insert an eye bolt with a nut to secure it. Connect a high capacity come along to the eye bolt and also to the other end of the fork where it connects to the forklift. There should be a pin connection there if it is an "L" shaped fork. Pull till some permanent deformation is noted, then compare to the other fork. This is done in increments so as to not overcorrect. Do not use heat because it will take the temper out of the steel. The forks are made of spring steel so they can flex under design load and come back to their original position when unloaded.
Real airplane, yes, very true, can lift more without bending the fork. As senior in our shipping dept. I always got the new lift. Then, maintenance would come get it when I wasn't on it, and unload or move a heavy machine, then for nex 5 years I had to deal w uneven forks. Couple times I managed to bend other to match, but some jack leg would borrow it, and here we go again. Once, in 25 years, I got a fork replaced on a new lift! Came in an Monday, and the new one was curled back at the tip, pointing back to lift, it was driven into a structure beam. Couldn't win for losing. 37 lifts in the plant, all battery. I had 2, both propane, 15,000lb and 1,000 lift. Used outside to load flatbed trailers. They moved much faster so night shift always borrowed my smaller Toyota lift. Retired now, someone else's headache.
Mike, I noticed at 4.52 in the video your glasses fall off. I had the same problem. Especially as I got older. As an RN working as a surgical assistant " for over 34 years" it was important my eyeglasses stayed on. I discovered a company that makes glasses with a small magnet that clicks them together at the bridge of your nose. I'm in no way connected to this company, however they are great. Just thought some of your viewers might like to visit their site . Once you try them you, like me, will say " Why didn't I think of this" . CliC glasses. Always enjoy the channel keep it up.
Loving the vids of your build. Thanks for your efforts. You should lift those posts out with the strap at or at least closer to the heel of the forks ...otherwise you’ll just bend the forks and make lifting your log crates more of a job!
Good morning Morgans! As Mike knows the aerator unscrews from the spigot. Suggest removing any hard water deposits by soaking the aerator in vinegar overnight if not in a hurry OR using hydrogen peroxide if you want faster results. As the saying goes, better living through chemistry!
The rut is getting under way here in ky as well. Im getting several new bucks on camera now and had one picture of two smaller bucks sparring. Seeing your deer footage just gets me pumped up and ready to hunt. I LOVE this time of year. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY
Who uses ratchets anymore? Cordless drill/driver or impact driver all the way! Take your sledge hammer and whack that concrete on the end of those posts and it will typically come right off. In SW Michigan chain link fence is usually concrete corner posts and driven line posts.
I have removed fence post with the draw bar of the three point hitch I took a chain chocked it up around the bottom of the post and raised the draw bar they pooped right out cement and all just had to get dirt to fill the hole
Thank you for adding the captioning. It makes all the difference. Just a thought: Instead of burning the cut-offs, why not offer them to do-it-yourselfers. Maybe Hobby Lobby, Dollar Store, etc. will let you put out a barrel of them, free for the taking???
Hey Mike and Melissa, You may want to do the stone veneer before freezing temperatures arrive. Also curious how you are doing the rain catchment system. No gutter leaf guards? Have a day!
Do you ever miss the little RK dump trailer? I could imagine it being the vacuum that nature wants to fill. ( I'll just leave this "stuff" in here till later. ) The trailer always seemed so handy. Thanks, take care all
I was thinking you should use those LED lights inside of your barn for lights for now. Hang them by the rafters and should be high enough that you do not hit them with your tractor.
Hey Mike just wondering how the concrete slab is going to be poured now the building is erected. I'm from Australia 🇦🇺 and here the slab is poured before the building is erected. Love all the content to wake up every morning first thing I do is watch your channel.
That's the way it is done in Texas too. Before the siding goes on. You can chute the concrete in between the posts. Now they will have to pump it in. Good thing is they don't have to worry about it raining on pour day.
Hey Mike, just wondering why you put the building where you did? Isn't the pool going to be awful far from the house? Isn't the road to get past the building going to difficult to navigate with a trailer? Maybe you could get the drone up in the air to give more of a perspective about where things are. Thanks!
Hey slow down. That building went up so fast Google maps from outer space hasn't even had the time to update the maps on it yet. That way we can watch progress from up in the stars. You guys are changing the shape of things. Definitely movers and shakers. My kind of people. Who else stops in here at 9:50 pm at night to make funny comments. Sometimes its hard having to wait until the morning for the next episode. Oh well it gives me something to dream about. :-)
Mike if you're going to put an office. bathroom. gameroom in the Building YOU better put in a small KITCHEN OR KITCHEN NET. So you don't need to run to the main House for meals when your out by the POOL. God Bless.
Some of your older videos are showing up on my feed. Loved them the 2nd time and am really proud of the progress you have made.
Nice getting a few things taken care of!!👍👊
Very enjoyable to watch your videos, you're a great team working together

Hi OWTM!! This is Rege your als neighbour North of town. Not a day goes by without my dose of your latest video! It helps make my day!
Mike you are one heck of a good machine operator. I’ve only been at it for a year and I can’t do what you’re doing with a loader and bucket and box blade yet. It’s amazing

I like that you take the time to save the fence post, and not just scrap them out. Have a Great Week Mike and Melissa!!!

Like the video Mike an Mel .
Such solid plans for the pool - sounds like this just might happen! Persistence pays off Melissa.
Thanks for the deer update and pics
Always fun to see what’s going on on the woods, please continue to share things like this👍
Thanks for the link to Thai-d Up with the Morgans! I look forward to learning more!
I love what you two are doing have a day Oct 20/20 we watch you ever day right on from Newfoundland
Great tear down

Howdy Morgans, don't ya just hate it when you bend over to pick something up and your reading glasses fall off your head or out of your pocket giving ya something else to pick up. Kate is quite resourceful. She made corn milk, then with the leftover kernels and such she turned them into waffles! Levi making his own Maple syrup. Ty is one lucky little lad. Enjoying all the Morgan's TH-cam content. Thanks for sharing!!
Glad to see your yard is shaping up. Cant wait to see the finish product. I watch ALL of your videos....as well as Melissa's too. I loved when Hunter was judging the 3 dogs. Say hi the the Hunt Man !!
Good morning Morgan's looks like a good day there slick job taking down the fence you guys have a great day see you in the next video
If you get the chain down lower on the post, your curl function will help pulling them out. A tractor has more power lifting close to theground.
Good morning Mike and Melissa, you mentioned the rut in your area is on, here in central Pennsylvania it isn't on yet, been out hunting archery pretty much every day, still not on here, if its on there most likely be happening here very soon. I am about 125 miles from you. Be safe and thanks for bringing us all along on your journey, have a DAY!!!
Good morning Morgans
We soak the faucets in vinegar to dissolve the lyme. Also the dog water bowls to get rid of lyme residue.
Yes I enjoy your videos....I love work.....I could "watch" it all day!!!!! LOL
Mr Morgan you have an amazing wife! Magnificent Melissa!!!
thanks for another video.
Mike's body language when running the backhoe was priceless!
DEER SEASON!... GOOD JOB U 2!... thanks 4 video. be kind.
Team Morgan, hard at work again! You guys are awesome! I love seeing Melissa's smile get even bigger when the pool is mentioned, lol. ❤️💪🇺🇸🙏
Nice job well executed! One more step to the completed plan❣️ Those bucks were awesome!!! Marcus from Chesapeake VA.
Hello Morgans. Bennett from sunny California. I watch your channel every day. If I may make a suggestion. When pulling posts try wrapping around the bottom of the post. You will have more leverage when removing the posts.
It’s on here in Tennessee too!!👍
Morning Morgans 👍✊
Was admiring the barn and house in the same picture
💥 Just wanted to say, great hair day Melissa! 👍 you too Mike. 😂
Keep on tractoring!
Good morning everyone. At the tree farm there were strong south winds and 76 on Saturday, Sunday winds out of the north and 46. Back to the Stihl store today. Stay safe, be humble & kind and Have a day!
Phil,
Did you see the Buck on Killinger’s game cam? Worth the look! A real Trophy!
@@oldmanfred8676 No I missed it. I have some stills of a 10pt I intend to put up later.
Phil,
He is a Shooter!!!
Hey there Morgans looks like fall is in full force looked a little cooler and the photos of the deer sweet love it. Looking toward the in the hobby barn work. Thanks for sharing

Super good video. Thank you for sharing all that.
Best product to put on bottom part of building, is Rosetta stone, check it out.
Great video as always Mike. I really like the interior of the cab on that Kubota. Have a good evening. Jason from Indiana.

Yes, it is that time of the year!!

Great job Mike an Melissa always something interesting to see on OWTM have a great day love from TEXAS
👍groetjes uit Holland 👋🏼
Good Morning, Morgans!
Love is definitely in the Air for the Deer. They’re lucky to have some quality ground to Live on. 👍
The thing I missed most about this time of year in PA. Was the fall harvest and the Apple festivals and other attractions. A lot of history in all of PA, Pittsburg was a major major player in the growth of the US. Most people forget.
We really missed Applefest! But it was better to be safe than have all those people so close together.
Mike, for years I operated forklifts. One of the worst things to have to put up with is uneven forks. One fork goes into the pallet, the other under the pallet. Slide forks together, put strap around both forks. If they bend, they bend together.

My forks get uneven too. Just get the high one up under something big and heavy and lift up to bend it down to match the other one. This will take several trials to do because you don't want it to be lower than the other one for sure.
David, how do you bend them upward?

Badcat!
Like seeing the deer, yelp we're getting close to the rut here in SW Virginia too. Have a great day.
Good morning Mike!
I like your new video you guys did a really good jop today
So nicely done the job I liked and enjoyed it! A S Brar from AZ
Good morning Mike!!
I live near canton Ohio and I would love to come out to your place you guys have a lot of them same interests as my family.
That sure seems to be a good quality fence for as old as you’ve mentioned it is before it’s in really nice condition still
Recreation barn looks great!
Good morning Morgans! As Mike knows the aerator unscrews from the spigot. Suggest removing any hard water deposits by soaking the aerator in vinegar overnight if not in a hurry OR using hydrogen peroxide if you want faster results. As the saying goes, better living through chemistry!
Lay a post on the ground. Big sledge hammer on the side of the concrete. Just a few blows and you have a clean post to reuse.
Love the little one. Xx
Melissa your hair looked nice the way you had it done.
Thanks for the deer!! I have missed that so much. Glad those bucks finally started showing up.
The rut is getting under way here in ky as well. Im getting several new bucks on camera now and had one picture of two smaller bucks sparring. Seeing your deer footage just gets me pumped up and ready to hunt. I LOVE this time of year. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY
Another job well done M & M
PIE Town Larry
I had good luck using the 3pt log skidder/trailer spotter and some chain to remove fence posts recently.
Corn milk quite tasty Mike. The last video was the pumpkin patch Ty looked like he had an awesome time till a rooster crowed
Who uses ratchets anymore? Cordless drill/driver or impact driver all the way! Take your sledge hammer and whack that concrete on the end of those posts and it will typically come right off. In SW Michigan chain link fence is usually concrete corner posts and driven line posts.
Lots of Bucks in our backyard'.6 pointer and pheasant's. Bremerton Washington.
Have you done a video on your video equipment? Audio and video are always spot on.
I have removed fence post with the draw bar of the three point hitch I took a chain chocked it up around the bottom of the post and raised the draw bar they pooped right out cement and all just had to get dirt to fill the hole
Works good. The 3pt has a lot of lifting power.
Ilike your video I start watching a day or two I am from Keokuk iowa I like it.
I use my wood scraps in my fire pit!🔥
Am I right, new HD? The video really pops this morning!
I think you'll find if you hit the concrete with a big sledgehammer it will break right off. The ones I did only took one hit.
Thank you for adding the captioning. It makes all the difference. Just a thought: Instead of burning the cut-offs, why not offer them to do-it-yourselfers. Maybe Hobby Lobby, Dollar Store, etc. will let you put out a barrel of them, free for the taking???
Hint; tap the concrete with a sledge to break off the fenceposts. Easier storage of posts and easier to set when you re-purpose them.
Sometimes it takes a bigger hit than a tap...
You might want to consider putting links to your other channels in the description of every video. It would be helpful. Great videos!!!
Hey Mike and Melissa, You may want to do the stone veneer before freezing temperatures arrive. Also curious how you are doing the rain catchment system. No gutter leaf guards? Have a day!
Do you ever miss the little RK dump trailer? I could imagine it being the vacuum that nature wants to fill. ( I'll just leave this "stuff" in here till later. ) The trailer always seemed so handy. Thanks, take care all
I was thinking you should use those LED lights inside of your barn for lights for now. Hang them by the rafters and should be high enough that you do not hit them with your tractor.
Why dont you use the led lights and hang it up the hobby barn for light in to work in side?
Good morning from St John Parish, Louisiana 19 Oct 20.
Hey Mike just wondering how the concrete slab is going to be poured now the building is erected. I'm from Australia 🇦🇺 and here the slab is poured before the building is erected. Love all the content to wake up every morning first thing I do is watch your channel.
That's the way it is done in Texas too. Before the siding goes on. You can chute the concrete in between the posts. Now they will have to pump it in. Good thing is they don't have to worry about it raining on pour day.
Hey Mike, just wondering why you put the building where you did? Isn't the pool going to be awful far from the house? Isn't the road to get past the building going to difficult to navigate with a trailer? Maybe you could get the drone up in the air to give more of a perspective about where things are. Thanks!
Hi - It would be good to have a drone video view of your property sometime to see how the building is situated with respect to the house etc...
Hey slow down. That building went up so fast Google maps from outer space hasn't even had the time to update the maps on it yet. That way we can watch progress from up in the stars. You guys are changing the shape of things. Definitely movers and shakers. My kind of people.
Who else stops in here at 9:50 pm at night to make funny comments. Sometimes its hard having to wait until the morning for the next episode. Oh well it gives me something to dream about. :-)
Deer been sparing here for a week here now. found scrapes and licking branches
Mike if you're going to put an office. bathroom. gameroom in the Building YOU better put in a small KITCHEN OR KITCHEN NET. So you don't need to run to the main House for meals when your out by the POOL. God Bless.
