A mixed week, repairs, fabrication and a bit of farming

In this video i replace the drawbar ring on a trailer. Repair a bale grab and then start to fabricate a drainage grid for the entrance into a farm. Along with a bit of harvest work on the farm.

Hope you enjoy the video
Thanks for watching.

Well I should be getting up and getting into my own workshop. However a good excuse to lie in bed for an hour and have another coffee. Cheers Ollie.

I love the way you repair more than the initial job when you notice a problem, just like you would if it was your own equipment. Thanks for another great video.

I'm sure I'm not alone In saying this. I look forward to Friday after work watching CEE video. I look forward to Sunday morning watching Ollies video. As always great work mush

Great mix. Thank you for taking the time to feed us! No Farmer, No Food. Cheers!

“Snowball Red” looks great on the green McHale handler.

Are you sure that bale grabber wasn't one of those new grease free models, 😁. Am in the middle of decorating so stopping to watch Ollie, broke and fractured my spine a few years ago, am still walking, its amazing though what you can get away with when you tell the wife you just need a rest. 😎 Glad to see you using the fabrication table, hopefully we'll see the grid being used. 👍

It's always good to see the Red Oxide paint come out! 👍.

Well done Ollie. At least it wasn’t an old fergie wobble box!, !

I always weld a bit of 40 mm flat bar on my cattle grids where the car/ tractor tires go, makes them quiet and last a lot lot longer.

You can guarantee your work is better than the original.

oli, when doing an infill such as those grates come in from both sides and meet in the middle. if its bit out looks fine in middle and doesn't make them 'handed'. when meeting in middle you can spread the discrepancy over couple gaps not just one.

Great vid as usual, and nice to see the extra you did with the grease nipples on the bale grab, but lo be honest it looked like they weren't overused before! Hence the worn pins!😅

[nighttrain]

No matter how well I measure when making a railing or grating the spacing never quite works. Always a millimetre here or there. After years you would think I would get lucky eventually. It’s like the number gremlins are messing with us. Great work Oliver. 👏❤️

Another grand video from Oliver, a really nice mix this week, and nice to get a glimpse of the farm during harvest :) Busy times

[davidegan]

Good morning Oliver! Another fine morning watching your stuff! 👍

[charleswelch]

You keep pretty busy with all the local farmers breaking equipment. But getting out of the shop is healthy for you, Oliver. I really like the new crossing design you have designed. I believe it will last longer than the old one. The wheat looks like a good crop also.

[mingthemerciless]

The new table is a game changer. The grates look spot on. Looking forward to the completion and installation. Cheers.

Spacing... I know this problem well. Stair baluster spacing. Dry fit and where possible, start in the middle.
Time is fleeting! Ten years seems like a lot, but not on the other side! Use your time wisely... I've had customers complain that my price was too high and I tell them "my time is valuable"!
Harvest time! I've seen the CLAAS equipment a lot lately!
Thanks for sharing the video and have a great Sunday!

[jasonkary]

The fab table is awesome! I also saw the boss had to check up on you to make sure you're not slacking. ;)

Some more skilled work to start my Sunday morning. Glad to see you are keeping busy in the workshop, and still able to have a wee break away from the shed for a while.
