I'll pay you 3 bucks an hour to do my ranch
Another $10 solution to a $2 problem. D'ja ever think that if you took the time you spent making a 60" magnet you could ride on and just went out and walked with the 30"er you would have done a better job and be back at building the fence?Mike- You Do You and more power to ya. Seems to be working: lots of subscribers- well, minus one. I grew up on a farm and it's just too painful to keep watching you fumble around doing things the hard way. Though I do admit I'm curious to see how you will get water into that new chicken pen when you put the waterer in the middle and no gate. Guess you'll get good at vaulting. Or at fixing your pants. Bye…
When you first put the magnets together, I was thinking putting a bolt in would have got them closer. Then when you cut the axle, (allthread) I cringed a little thinking, no wheel going back on there. Really nice idea though. Sure beats bending over and swinging a handheld magnet. Another interesting and informative video. Keep them coming.
The magnet idea is already used by the trucking industry They are hung in front of "Yard dogs" the specialized trucks that are used for moving trailors around the yard.
A poor man's FOD bar. Yes to see GOD bars daily on the flightline. You're sure are an Air Force guy. Retired Air For a myself. Love the channel.
really all times I am hitting button if I can do it more than onetime I will do love you
Some skids might be ok.
Mike, I sincerely appreciate the patience and humor you display when addressing comments from previous videos!
Gloves Mike. You lost some when you came back into the barn on the door rail. You will be amazed at how much you will find.
With the magnet project, why not put another in the front. Because right now your running over a nail before it gets picked up.
Use the wood handle mounting brackets and put a support bracket to decrease the deflection
Great idea. I’ve aways use a metal detector and it would take me hours.
Thats a great Idea Mike
Why would you subscribe you produce great videos love watching all your videos
You should have a chain in the center over the screws and attach the chain to the bumper like you did to the ends.
1. Rivit an aluminum strongback to. the front or back side to remove the bow. 2. place a skid in place of the wheel at each end so it travels at a more uniform distance from the ground.
Just looking at your design, my thought would be to put a front tire from a push lawn mower in the center to compensate for the sag and keep them level. Great work though. Love seeing the changes on the ranch with all the improvements and upkeep.
Lol…. I laughed out load…. oh my word… “the calf’s aren’t allowed to play with lighters”!
I’ve asked before and didn’t get response. What is the big tan building ????
I use a wood broom handle with round neodymium magnets and on the end are Rollerblade wheels. I pull behind atv in dry lake bed hunting meteorites .
Good deal!
Hey Mike on your magnet why don't you put the other two wheels in the center of both of them that way you have three points of contact on the ground and it should keep her from sagging and bowing
Dropped screw! Ironic.. use magnet to find it.
Excellent project. I'd keep those magnets on as often as possible. Avoiding a screw or nail in a cows hoof could prevent a catastrophic and costly situation. Not to mention what one of those nails or screws could do to a tractor or four wheeler tire. Time well spent.
Yes but what about the matches?😊 I think I would check to see if the 🐖 had ran away. What about a chain in the middle .
I wonder if you can put a tire in the middle if that would take away that sagging effect.
Even before you sped the film speed up, I was thinking that maybe you need to drive a little slower so that the medals have a chance to adhere to it more
We get to keep Peanut and Goliath right? We'll pay for their upkeep. Just let them loose with the cows and let us say hello with every video. Pleeeeeeease.
Fantastic!
You have done so much with so little for so long,You are now qualified to do everything with nothing. BravoDrag those rusty screws across a bar of hand soap to aid reinsertion.Thanks for sharing, Mike
Great idea 💡
Not worried about them playing with lighters. Just that they like to rub up against things.
: D
Bravo! Another informative video.
😂 😂 😂 yah nothing worse than a calf with a lighter. 👍
Put tounge on it like trailer
The McGyver Rancher lol.
Mike always has a tool or an idea that just does moves it forward he himself is a swiss army man…
Been using these for years on construction sites. Saves on flats.
