Burying Ditches And Graders Too!

well okay it slid off the side be in today's a little bit rainy spit in here and there we'd actually really like a good rain right now a lot of guys are still harvesting they don't want it we want it so we could probably plant some winter wheat because right now the ground is not very good for winter we plant there's not much moisture it's gonna be hard and breaking a lot of shanks and it's just really difficult to say if we get a good stand or not but I'm gonna go ahead and just go do some couple things that I've been wanting to do all year and one of those is getting that big old Boulder out of the ground that I showed you guys a while back in a video and I promised that I'd take a tractor and go dig it up so let's go take the a.44 for spin and let's see if we can dig this Boulder out of the ground in this field that's just like a mile of south of here find out how big it really is maybe it sounds big as I think or maybe it's huge I don't know that's the fun in it let's fire let's grow up let's check some oil just make sure it's good to go and hit the road I left a little bit of stubble here from our Peas so I can heal the spot as well as it's right across from a big old Boulder in the field down there so here it is just judging from how its curved I'm guessing it's probably about the size of a toolbox big toolbox like that never know though I could just be the tip of the iceberg but we're here let's dig it let's be good place for it right here this plan isn't farmed it's what we call a coolie or a draw it's a valley the water flows down here and this is gonna be a good place for it because he's washed off maybe in like five years when the water rushes everything off it looks all pretty I might come get it again or maybe not out of it let me go dig some dirt up fill that hold and I just made in the field so we don't have that as a surprise and I'm spraying the field and take some dirt bury it and head back just like new never knew it was even there I'm sure it'll settle a little bit there'll be a little dip here for a while but this will be enough so I won't be surprised when I wonder farmer acrost it let's go back I got another idea what to do today something I've been wanting do for a while now and guess what it's a great time to do it the next thing I'm thinking is when I was driving out to the field there's these washout these ditches we've had two pretty good flashes of water in the spring as well as one big rain that happened last year really fast in it they caught a bunch of trenches in our fields and you can't farm across them right now because they're so big hit the farm around him so I'm thinking the next thing on the today's list that I should do it's fire up the old m100 house Chalmers this is a good grader it's very used engines rebuilt runs like a top very wore out and all the joints in all the knuckle Buster system and everything but it still dig the dirt just fine and it's perfect what we need to use leg arms gets all the fun on this thing cuz he's really good at around in this creator he's by far the best in the farm at operating this machine he also has the most time in it too so I think it's about time I take it first bin so let's fire this thing up go do some more dirt work it's good on diesel we are good to go well here's what we're looking at so this had like a couple feet of water on them down at this spring and last spring this part here isn't too bad you can farm across this a little bit of a dip but as it gets down there it gets a little tighter and tighter before you know it's pretty good size trench this is pretty close to our farm yard there's one here and there's one over the hill I'm just gonna go ahead and pull the sides down so all I'm doing with the 'greater then we're gonna set the blade down and take this side hill here pull it to the center do one pass either side a couple back and forth and I'm gonna build up the very bottom here and then hopefully it'll settle and not wash out we get some crop planning on it it'll be firm you able to drive across it again without having to worry about throwing your head to the ceiling and a whatever machine you're in so let's pull some sides down the only downside with doing this is you do scrape some your topsoil off the edges but I would really care less them up a little bit of land here that I'm in Arun compared to be able to cross this ditch it's not bad I'm not gonna pull all the topsoil but just so I'm pulled down in otherwise if you don't reclaim these ditches you'll never get them back because they'll just keep getting bigger and bigger and bigger let's dig it well I just lightly scrape the sides in I made a berm in the center here I'm gonna come back with we've got a three-point blade that goes in the back of the case tractor it's like a box grater and it'll level that out smooth at the bottom then I'll run the tractor up and down this bunch of times because the tires are wider and it's heavier more pounds per square inch gonna push that will burn down the center there so that ditch won't be there anymore so I'm done at this field I'm gonna head on to the bad area this was just kind of like a spot that was near the farm it wasn't terrible but it needed done the next one is the one that needs done that so let's go get there and move some more dirt well okay I'm stuck it slid off the side and it decided it wanted to go flip so there's not much I could do it's stuck enough off to come back the tracker big chain tomorrow and pull it up I think I'm a lot of cool down I'll turn it off tonight and I'll pick this up tomorrow but make good progress it won't take long I need that tractor here anyways cuz I want that box grater here the level is all out so we'll give a good pull it'll pull back up on top I'll be good to go tomorrow well next day I've got a little mishap that I did getting a grater stuck I got the 7140 here and we're gonna grab a tow rope I grabbed my dad and we're gonna run over and we're gonna yank that grater out so I can keep going and keep filling those ditches in and I'll have his tractor down there anyways too because I need this tractor to finish leveling out those berms that I made so let's go down there let's pull our grater let's get to work and you know get some progress done just sheared that tow-rope praying - we're gonna go chain big chain all right round two we got a bigger chain this what happens I think it'll go but if it doesn't it's because that trackers not heavy enough full we should make it that wasn't bad that was pretty easy good let's get back to work I'm stuck let me pulled out again there okay we're back in business he pulled out good to have another tractor here another guy before it's stuff like that happens how's that look there was a nasty ditch there that you could drive a four-wheeler through but now it's gone it's definitely soft and eats packed down I think we're on the bud down here something at some point that case track to the three point on the back of it a bolt broke and it's not working at the moment so we're going to run that back I got stuck three more times now at the end down here hey just every time I go down I was just a really wet area and he'd just slide in and stain quit he was here at the tractor hole times he kept pulling me out and take very much well that's not all the ditches in the farm but that's definitely gonna be the ones that are close and I've been bugging us and a couple in that I've hit and sprayer and it wasn't fun so that's good oh that's good to have those ditches taken care of the one thing that happened though I were over there this tractor pulled me out about four times because I kept sliding in that Whaley ditch but right after he finished pulling me out a bolt broke on the three point actually didn't break a bolt worked itself out on the back of the three point which then caused another bolt to break which normally shouldn't so we're waiting on parts to get this three-point fix so for now the 71-43 point is not working which pretty much put the tractor down unless we take that whole unit off the back but you know what I got the ditches fixed that's what I wanted to do and it's always an accomplishment but guys oh thanks again for watching the videos you guys been just absolutely fantastic through the harvest series all 16
