Is this machine the answer to farm plastic?

still at full reach you can get your fingers in it all right guys what's happening drew's family back again today hey doing a video on the plastics washer because quite a few you seem to be quite interested in that so we've got the 70 30 on it for the pressure but you'd use a dukes but this tractor was free so just reverse that in and yeah let's get it going if you haven't already subscribed please feel free to press that button and hit the notification button so you do not miss anything and please also feel free to check out the merch in my description and let me know what you think of it i've had some good reviews already so i think the recipes will like it so hey let's get going with the video so this is the machine here pale or what the hell you want to call it so a couple of big doors on it got to that seems to be pretty stubby anyway because of the amount of pressure it comes from this plate that comes down you can only operate it when you shut this because it pushes this button in and then you get that going then the plastic at the back here two rolls they're getting gobbled because they've been outside they come through down here around there and out and then you tie them at the front here and then once you're finished squashing it all down um you cut them and you shove them through here then you unhook them and then allow open this door tie them and then take the pressure off again and then you roll these out which has made a huge difference i think i've only got one bale left to make there's only a wee drop plastic left now still quite a bit of light but the amount of plastic you can get in one of these is unbelievable you know so i'll freeze on a second anyway so hopefully i've got enough plastic to show the full effect but it's not i'll be looking around some machine so that's the pressure on now and you can see muscle no move unless this is pressed in and then that can only be done with the door unless you want to shove it with your hand but that's not what you're meant to do i'll show you the enemy there's sure there's a plate put quite hell of a pressure down on it just some health and safety don't do that okay just need to set this up first the cardboard's away that's through here look at that food through here we look see we shove these right through there if you get them out of the way you try and keep that and the bottom so that at the end you can you're able to [Music] pull freely because that means that a blast it's really topical you know so pull us in the way that it's just gonna sit in the bottom so that's that one sitting in that run i'll need to get my knife for this one get ready to go perfect right let's get going so it's part of that bill right i need to get something over here now worried uh [Laughter] right for squash no water where the hell is it hail stolen i would be a slurry but uh it absolutely chucked it with rain i know it's hailstoning again like what the hell is going on this year unbelievable uh it's in there just makes it easier to put it in if you keep squashing it down you can get a lot plastic in there oh don't know what that's doing oh the place is getting white now all right that's a big bit of plastic and this will just send it right down again see just keeps on going let's see you can get a bigger one of these but i don't need any bigger this is just fine but bigger one would have been handier it's a lot wider get more in it looks like dad's in a little brushing that's still at full reach and that's it there look at that just bubbling new so at full reach it's fine stand back a bit let's see if this will fit still at full reach see running a plastic now well they just see the drain pipes it's probably just going to make a bale of them for themselves because they i don't know just because [Music] bell starting to get bigger really tighten this place up plastic goes everywhere they are wires at the silage but before it well we started cutting the wires off when they were um hanging up so this is where we start them and then they ended up buried underneath all the plastic unfortunately but now we can get out and get it in the scrap this was one of the things that got done quickly you forget about it leave it and then forget about it okay there's more hayden an old scraper right [Music] is i will get all this plastic in this must be more than i originally thought but never mind i think i'll be right here see how far burners take hmm hmm right last squash i wasn't quite juicy enter me just get a few squashes this is probably the fullest bale after me thinking i might even have enough yeah doesn't it look right yeah yeah stuck up behind it then he felt as full as this if you've got one get there that's it can i need this in there a bit more let's get those things shoved back through so yeah that's to kind of where it needs to go too long's better than too short what's that yeah right this might not be easy but it should be alright i actually think looking at it this is the only bit that's really hard to be honest especially when it's so full right that's one keep these tight swing he's unhooked well this is the way i do it of course what uh it's just how much it's rained simple granny knot doesn't need to be too tight because when this pressure comes off it expands struggle to get your fingers running anyway all right i'll just do this to show you what it does voila one bale and it's designed at this chamfer so it's narrower about wide at the front so that you can pull it out you can get your fingers in it there you go this one's definitely heavier than the ones i've made before right let's see what i can do here i wonder how heavy this one is done one heavy bale anyway i hope you enjoyed that but somebody did ask how much plastic you can put in there um i'm going to be trying to edit out some well probably a lot of it because well the cameras tell me i've been recording for half an hour so but a lot of it was me having to get plastic at the pile over there which you can see is non-existent now and all that's left now is drain pipes and that's from the stylish but we put a silage we put a pipe down the side of the stylish pit every year not allows any effluent out the pit so and then they get damaged and it's not worth trying to reuse them so we need to get rid of them so i think that'll squash them into shape but i hope you enjoyed that and try and get some farming videos soon um just gonna be getting back to slurry as soon as it's dry enough and uh very shortly when there's enough grass i'll be showing you is me putting all the young stock out so there's some nice happy cruise coming soon so yeah okay so next time see you goodbye
