This just popped up on my recommended videos for some reason, but I did enjoy watching that blading
+ZeiZei. Well thanks for checking it out. 👍
This video also popped up on my recommended videos
Great Video as well and I have to say this is my second or third time watching it.
Wow I always wondered if people ever watch more than once. Thanks!
Kkw
Good video Dennis as always. I remember growing up on the farm, and how we had more trouble with local hunters thinking that just because your farm was local and they were neighbors, that gave them the permission they needed to hunt your woods. It didn't take my father long to get it through their heads that it was his property, and not theirs. They just needed to learn to respect his rights as the land owner. One even told my father, that the original owner gave him permission, and thought that meant it was ok, even though a new owner had the farm he didn't have to ask. I'm not sure how they came to that reasoning, but they did.
+marhuf. Lol that sounds about right!
It's because most hunters have to take their shoes off to count higher than 11.
So glad that I finally got to watch this video! Very cool to see how the box blade works!
+Shannon Harrell. Yeah it's a pretty simple but apparently very popular concept! Lol
Man, watching this is hypnotic! I love working dirt. Thanks for the upload!
Thanks, your welcome!
I have a 42" Gravely Zero-Turn mower. I wanted a wider one, but needed the narrower cut to get around things on our property. On our 2 acres, we have 43 trees - many large oaks, maples, hickories & locuses (the worst leaves), birch, black cherry & white pine. I may only mow the grass a couple times per month, but when the leaves fall, I easily mulch enough to fill a semi-trailer. My sister & family use to have a house way up in the hills just west of Amherst VA and about 1 mile or 2 east of the Jefferson National Forest area. I love the views from this video!!!
Nice tractor! Makes my little TC29D look like a toy. Thanks for sharing you work, I enjoyed riding along.
+HardwayRanch. Thanks for stopping by!
I’ll never forget this video was sitting in my shooting house watching it and the biggest deer I’ve ever shot come out into the feild. Was a 11 point with 19 inch spread here in northwest alabama
That’s a cool story!
That box blade Works awesome love the Hydraulics the way it tilts great video keep them coming Big Al Michigan
+Alan Call. Thanks Alan!
On my gravel drives, I’ve found that once you have a good gravel base, the grass helps hold the gravel in place.
Thanks for sharing.Those box blades sure turn a pigs ear into a nice 3 course meal if you got a good one and the right operator and material. We had an older trailed one at the seed plant i worked for. It didn't have the left/ right independent angle so it was straight up or down to level,and a bit limiting sometimes . That was fun running it grading dirt a 9400 JD was dropping with a towed scrapper conversion . The guy said when i'm doing my leveling pass he'd be right behind don't stop or i'll drive right over you !!!!!!!!!. 5 hours one day I did that pulling the blade with a near worn out 2 wd JD 2950 and the 4wd never stopped just like he said. He was 10ft behind every load he dumped, You get good at running the blade real quick like that if you never done it before.
+super6954. Lol! Interesting story!
Thanks for the reply I guess thats what happens with guys doing our kind of work you don't hear much like this from office or store workers with boring jobs. The job was filling a few acre low spot down the side of the farm drive, that flooded every spring causing issues with the house basement and lawns in wet years. we took the high spot off that was the other side of the tree line in the field. All he did was drive up the field loading then pull in the top and drive down where I was leveling emptying the next load behind me. After an hour getting into the swing of it I actually liked doing it and spent hours dirt leveling with that blade and tractor in fields where he did drainage work .
+super6954. It's a lot of fun, much more entertaining than an office desk!
Love the videos. Keep them coming. I keep on telling everybody in Australia to watch
+Peter Levy. Thanks! I'd like to go to Australia someday but I'm afraid to fly! Lol
Hell of a tractor there. I maintained a mile and a half of drive with an insanly steep section that was impassable in the winter except for my 4x4 with chains and locked differentials front and rear and even then I'd constantly break stuff trying to get home. Anyway, It took me about 15 years to finally get a tractor loader, used, 67 international. I built me a box blade. Had the road fixed, made new roads, cleaned up sections of the property that had gone to hell over the years. Made a 3ph wood splitter, built a big ol garden.. and then the engine went, and my life was empty.. Some day I'll be able to afford another tractor.. or fix the old one.. But I'll never look at work the same way again.
+Daniel Fischer. Wow that thing turned your life around, hope you can get her going again!
Beautiful spread those people have and that road looks perfect with no ruts or rivulets, especially for on the side of a mountain, you must stay on it regularly. And your place at the end is awesome as well, Dave & Busters for grown ups with real toys.
Lol thanks i do keep on the road right regular. These people take good care of me so I take good care of them.
Love your videos I could watch them all day.
Cool deal!
Tractor is bigger than I thought great job thanks.
+Douglass Wilkin. Yeah now your seeing the big picture. 👍
Great vid thanks for sharing 👍 the owners are lucky to have you it seems like a good mutually beneficial arrangement 😊 your right you must have respect both ways
Thanks 👍
Seems like they got the T5 fixed the box blade is real handy to have. No sense not moving some logs while your there no need to make two trips.Keep up the great video's
+Kenny Mysak. Thanks Kenny! The T5 is running good!
Very nice rig you're running, especially that grapple. Great job on the road!
Thanks, that grapple is a very handy tool, use it all the time.
Showed this video to my wife to explain why I need to buy one of these attachments....she was mad that I "needed" yet another implement at first, then she got it after watching this and now she's interested in what else I should get! Lol
Haha glad I could help
Seems like that hunting permission worked out just right for you. Almost meant to be for you and your brother. Good for you and good for owners having people they can trust. Glad you got the hunting permission.
Thanks!
Very entertaining and informative... Great Vid...! THANKS, Gordon
+Gordon McCoy. Your welcome and thanks for stopping by!
Sweet tractor and very informative video!
Thanks Max!
You're a good man, God bless you!
+shivercanada. Thanks!
Common problem, ppl take advantage & things for granted.
I lease and appreciate the heck out of the opportunity to do so.
I love this part of youtube. We get to see some of the jobs people never think about.
👍👍
Looking through the back window that looks like a KingCutter brand. But, no chisels. I have a 7' super heavy one I built without chisels or schredders and it does well, but is more a spreader than the one I have with chisels. That one digs ahead if the blade and does a helluva lot more work faster.
I love new holland tractors!! Awesome machines
+shawn17032. Their pretty good! 👍
Like the box blade grading process!
You guys do the BEST Country Bumpkins...Awesome Actors!
+Michael Barron. That doesn't make any sense.
@@DLHFarms I think he's saying your accent isn't real. He's probably watched Deliverance a few too many times.
Oh ok, I get it now. I live in Virginia that's how we talk here.
Dzikie zwierzezta
+Michael Barron- Just another d-bag trying to insult people for their accent. You know people like this would not open their mouths in real life.
The New Holland sure does run and sound like a smooth operating tractor!
It's nice to watch a box blade being used, I enjoyed this one too.
+Reg Sparkes. It's is a smooth tractor. Thanks for watching Reg!
@@DLHFarms I'm still having problems with my new holland t465 rear end came apart with less than 200 hours it was repaired under warranty but it is doing the same thing again with 300 hours on it any advice this thing is junk and I need help
Not familiar with with that model t465 but sounds like you better get rid of it asap.
Put a large brush sweeper on the front to sweep off all the leaves. Can be used to remove light snowfall too.
That’s my favorite piece of equipment. We call them land levelers. The one I have only has two tires in the rear. Yours is a better design I can see that 4 tires give added stability. What I don’t like is that it will kick gravel off the sides and it’s real hard to move gravel from side to side like a road grader. I saw a design that functions like a road grader you pull similar. But I’ve never operated one.
I have a six way scraper blade that can move gravel side to side but it's much more difficult to make a smooth finish with it. It can be done but takes a lot of patience.
Beautiful land you maintain. Don't worry about the trespassers, Lyme's Disease will take care of them my friend.
Haha thanks 👍
Good video. Love that New Holland.
+Stupd Flanders. 👍
I love farming and outdoor videos
Awesome you should sub my channel then
Same
Awesome!
Same here!
if you like the videos, you should g out and do something yourself :D
Man I seriously enjoy all your videos. I’m from coastal SC and love it here, but your area is truly Gods country.
Yes it's beautiful here
DLH Farms Dennis we were trying to find a farm up in NC, Va or WV to move to. We farm ab 600 acres, but lord it’s getting crowded here w ppl wanting to move close to beach. I couldn’t believe how high land was up in NC Va mountain areas. I guess it’s same thing, ppl wanting to move to beach or mountains and got land prices outrageous. Again great videos hoss
Yep people wanting to move here to the mountains has made our land cost a ridiculous amount.
Enjoyed the video, thanks very much
+Jan Kotze. Your welcome!
That box blade works really well for you at skimming those leaves off. Is it fairly straightforward to operate to get the sort of results you are wanting most of the time?
It is hardly surprising that those hunters were told to leave after behaving like that! - it is almost as though they seemed to think that the property was theirs to do with as they liked! What an ultimate insult to change the entrance lock on the gates and not inform or ask the owners for permission to do so and provide them with at least one key!!
+Dan Whiteford. I don't know what those hunter's were thinking, I guess since the owner is hardly ever there they were going to take over the place. It didn't go so well. Lol. Yes the box blade is very easy to get good results with anyone could catch on quickly at operating it, I would think.
Interesting content ! Thank you ! Be safe and God bless you and your family !!!!! Eddy
+Ray Eddy. Thanks! And the same to you!
man that is a wicked nice machine!
+toobglued. Thanks!
looks great!
+cynzhero62 thanks!
Well that was satisfying. Nice country down in SW VA.
Thanks it sure is.
Love your many excellent videos. I am a farmer's son 30 miles north of London in England, we had Ford tractors when I was a child, we had 7600's , 6600's and TW-35s. I have recently bought numerous old Fords including an 8730. England does not have box blades, I imported some from Everything Attachments in Kentucky last year. They are great but we lack the expertise over here to use them to maximum advantage. Please would you explain the advantages and disadvantages of a drawbar box blade compared to a 3 point version. I note that in this video you said that if you were not able to get good results you would return with a 3 point box blade. In theory I would have expected a trailed box blade to beet a 3 point version every time. Thank you.
+Paul Collins. It really depends on the size of your job and what your trying to accomplish each have there place. The bigger draw bar type is good at moving lots on material and spreading it out and getting things roughed in but when it come to fine tuning a driveway and getting all the ridges out typically a smaller more controllable blade will leave a nicer finish, like a 6 foot three point box with a hyd top link for controlling depth of cut or you can tilt it way back for just a smoothing action and no cutting. Also we use a hyd side arm link to control tilt so we can crown the road.
Good video, thanks.
that a nice machine nice work man
+dustin bachmeier. Thanks!
The box blade does a good job
Do you use a York rake when you spread gravel or a spreader box?
+Chuck Stevenson. I just use a box blade. most of the time it's a smaller 6 foot three point unit that I use.
Nice job grading road. Enjoyed watching and listening to u explain. Keep it up.
+Ronald Stephens. Thanks Ronald!
thanks very much
+hassan حسن. Thanks for watching!
Isn't that what the bucket in the front of the tractor is for? to grade the gound?
lucky! God I wish my family had a farm or ranch. I would love it. You are so lucky
Yes I'm definitely blessed to live in such a nice place
Box blade sure works sweet napa mike 👍
+Mike Wawrzkiewicz. Thanks sure does!
Very relaxing video.
Thanks
Bad ass box blade dude
Thanks
Love watching all your videos. How long is that driveway?
+veggiefarmer1. Thanks! It's about 3/4 of a mile.
Like the camera views on the bow blade...
Can you put a blower on the front to get most of the leaves off the trail before hitting it with the blade?
+ecopsych101. No the blower I have goes on the back. It's PTO driven and there is only PTO on the back. The problem is you can only blow off the the left or right so it cleans the ditches but not really the road.
We use one similar to that; older model so no tilt, but I have TnT to use with ky HR3584.
👍
Great video
+skoalring83 Thanks!
Wow, you do an amazing job. Your a skilled operator. Beautiful property!
+J A. Thanks 👍
Great job.
Thanks 👍
Sometimes a shovel or rake are just plain indispensable. lol 😆
My virgin visit, Subscribed - 🛎. Beautiful country. 🌳🌳🌲
Add in a pole saw too.
+Trees Climbing Gear. I've got a pole saw, been working on that today!
What brand is that box blade? Looks like it works super good!
+Russ Underwood. I think it's SFI can't remember what it stands for.
I like that you can angle the box blade, we do some grading on our hilly drive after a good wash with a 6' blade. but no crown.
As for the leaves, I'd rig that blower if possible to blow the leaves to the sides. Save you time and fuel. Also seems even just litely raking you probably do waste some material when you push the leaves off.
Either way looks like it's providing you with revenue taking care of it.
When you add gravel do you provide it or do they have a pile somewhere?
LOL the hunters locked them out? geeze!
We give permission on our property now and then and we insist on notifying us when on the property so we can let them know who else may be there and where... mainly to keep it safe.
+Atoyota. We provide the gravel also when it needs it. It does keep a little money flow going I was told to do whatever to keep everything in good shape and they are always very appreciative. Sounds like you have a good system for allowing hunters.
Can you tell me what brand and model drag box your using.
Thanks a million for posting all the great videos
It’s an SFI don’t know the model but it’s 10ft wide.
Hey did you know you have to have an flashlight on an orange triangle on to
Do you put water bars in the road to prevent water damage during runoff?
Yep
For the grapple bucket place it flat on the ground collect the leaves while plowing behind the tractor
Haha I hate mowing around objects. If I build a new house someday, I will design a rectangle object fee yard that has dimensions that match the deck width so my last pass is a full deck wide....
+PA Farms. Lol! Now that is what I'm talking about!
Round Prairie Dairy haha I guess then I will have to re-size my yard.
You have to figure for the inch overlap on each side...
Just build the machine to fit the yard
OCD much? Lol
No começo desses dois travessões na diagonal frontal, acho que se soldar um um metal embaixo na diagonal para trás, com um espesso gancho; o gancho vai ficar passando cinco centímetros dentro da terra, então possibilitará mais estabilidade na ferramenta, e não vai atropelar o excesso de terra. Esse travessão adicional, pode ser encaixado e regulado com travas na transversal.
Ou colocar peso em cima da ferramenta.
1.4 million views ! Wow ! I know I've watched it more than once. I think people just like listening to you tell stories or background about the jobs.
Maybe so, I don’t get why people watch it, but I’m thankful.
looked like a 8ft box blade. did a nice job using the wheels to tilt. wish I had a grapple.
+daveknowshow. It's actually a 10 foot and is about 2 and a half foot tall.
holy smokes thats a big one for sure! need a good size spot to turn around with that behind your tractor.
+daveknowshow. Yeah it takes a little room. Lol
You had your mirror saver right on the front, but you didn't use it. I run mine with the loader up when I see those mirror getters in my way, it usually snaps them lil bastards right off before they can whip around and hurt things, lol. That grader box sure is handy, I wish I would have known you when I lived in Stuart, our damn driveway was about 40 degrees and had 4" minus spread out on it. Every time it rained it was like riding down the hill on ball bearings and praying no one was coming down the road so you didn't slide right into them. I would have gladly paid you to scrape some that rock off of there.
+CumminsDslPwr. Lol sounds like a scary ride. I took care of that limb later with the grapple!
Do you have low tire pressure on the right side? We have an old pull type exactly like that but we call it a speed mover. I’m almost sure they are the same company. Anyway it just looked like it was a little heavy cutting on the right.
+Strangefruit. I explained in the video that the road has crown so I tilted the blade to the right to maintain the crown it helps to shed water off the road. It makes the road high in the center so it sheds water off both sides equally.
DLH Farms oh I see that’s my bad. I didn’t think of it having a tilt cylinder because ours doesn’t. Makes sense though.
+Strangefruit. 👍
The Box Blade sure does a nice job with cleaning up the road. It makes for a nice finished product for the client once they return to their property. Would be nice to also have a chainsaw on a pole to cut back the branches from hitting your tractor
I have one and those branches have been gone for a while now.
have you thought about putting a reel type rake on the front to get rid of the leaves?
+Rottinrock. No I haven't thought of that.
great job
Thanks
Pole saw...$200...better than tearing up that Beautiful Machine!!
can't watch it all the way but amazingly so far he hasn't said I'm going to go ahead and.......
Bardzo fajny odcinek Sub leci i łapka w górę :D
Are you charging per hour rate or do you charge on a straight fee?
Just depends
What happens if a root or a stone is sticking out of the ground?
+Andrew Lin. The blade will either rip it out of the ground or it will just bounce over it, no big deal.
1MILLION VIEWS! AWESOME DENNIS!
Dang I didn't even realize!
@@DLHFarms You're in the big times now! You're a regular ol tuber!
how do you build crown with that box?
By tilting it to the right with the hydraulic tilt cylinder.
Nice video sir. Nice property also. Very pretty. :) who in there right mind whould chance locks on property u dont own ?? Haha
Lol thanks.
That's beautiful country there
+juan garcia. Yes it is!
I grew up in West Virginia... that sure looks similar... maybe eastern Kentucky? Or Eastern Tennessee...? It IS very beautiful country that is for sure!
I'm in Patrick county Va
Sorry, wrong side of my state... yeah Virginia is very beautiful also! My grandparents and few cousins lived in culpepper and we have some friends that live in front royal....
i wouldve kicked them hunters out the second that plow hit the ground
+George Costanza. I would have too! Now the owner's are going to pay me to fix it back and seed it. They need to send the hunters the bill.
Nice size farm there brother..
+Son's of Liberty. Thanks!
Will you do a video on the tractor mounted leaf blower ? Sounds kinda Cool. Greeting from Ireland
+liam hennessy. I will next time I have it out. It's a Goosen blower
That's good dont let them come back
They didnt
👍
Sadly this is considered my “get away” from the city life
+Jerome Y. At least you have something!
DLH Farms agreed, Great channel!
+Jerome Y. Thanks!
Move to the country!!! Get out of that rats nest!
April Rain some day I will
i know its an old video, but why you didnt put it a litle bit deeper and make the road flat? because on the right end of the blade had some ground in it
You don't want the road flat or it will wash out. You always crown a road to shed water of to the sides.
Damn,man,you are so beautiful!!!
☺😉Sorry,couldn't help it...
Great work by the way... Happy new year! Health and Love!!Take care.
Umm thanks LoL
Who makes your grapple? Thanks
Favor
Nice tractor
Thanks!
Hi! A bit late to this video and your channel.What is the manufacturer of your box blade? Thanks
I think it's an SFI blade
The T5 was rolling down the road. How fast does it go? I know bailing hay in that tractor is fun but I gotta say what you are doing here looks like a stress reliever too.
+B Jenkins. It's goes 27.5 mph according to the speedo, but if you check it with GPS it goes about 28.3 mph. 👍
Late comment but what about a street sweeper for leaves or no?
That might actually work and I have one that would go on the front of my tractor.
Good for you and your brother in law.
👍
What size box?
10 foot
