Gleaner K shelling more corn

Man you gotta just love the way that old girl crawls threw that corn so cool to see this old k rocking. keep those bearings clean and she won't ever quit

Thanks for filming your cousin’s combine in action. It’s neat to see the machine up close while in action. That’s a view you don’t get from the operating platform. It looks pretty neat!

You said it perfectly. "IF it was easy, everybody could do it". But just look at like this, God gave you and your Cousin Scott the health, wisdom and patience to get the job done. Great Video as always.

Cos SBF, thanks for an update on Cos Scott, I never received a notification for this one,

You're probably right, Ol' Cousin Scott got more time in repairs than in the field but, like you said, "if it was easy..... ". Enjoyed the views you were able to get of the Ol' Gleaner shelling some corn. Take care.

I just said that to my son this week after he had a bad day of moving bales. One tire blown on a wagon,and one hose on a skid steer. If farming was easy everyone would be doing it!! Can't wait to see the soybeans coming off. Take care!

Fixing the older stuff and running it, is way cheaper than buying new... And not being able to fix it, because there are no parts available... Keep her going guys👍

Same with my Massey...prior owner absolutely neglected the machine and I've paid the price...dearly

I admire both cousin Scott and your perseverance… I am not brave enough yet to put our struggles out for the world to see… but no doubt this has been a difficult harvest with machinery issues same as y’all… Praising Jesus in the hard times is so so much more fulfilling than a token prayer in the good times….

Yes sir Mr SBF, you got some great shots of that thing working!! I know cousin has struggled, but the good lord keeps him motivated and persistent!! That is motivational to say the least! I have learned one thing, keeping older stuff that we can afford running is a true feat in itself!! Not to mention the workings of a combine at that! I threw in the towel myself with the gleaner I had. I hate to see him struggle or you either, but the positive attitudes you both have when problems arise is what it's all about! It will all happen in the Lord's time, and you both are a testimony to that!! 😉😉😁😁😁😁 Thank you very much for footage my friend, can't wait to see the 3300 in the beans as well!! 😁😁😁👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸☕☕

The easiest way to tell if it’s blowing it out the back and not header loss is to look over into the unshelled row and see if it’s any kernels there. If they are just behind the combine and not in the unshelled rows, most of that is header loss (or butt shelling)

Chances are some of those fallen kernals can be attributed to the corn head......Same almost with every piece of equipment for every crop.....You might say those are the crumbs that fall from Gods Table for the Beast of the Fields and the Fowls of the air......Let all rejoice and be thankfull....

Great video good to see y'all

Great footage, i wish i had a slower first gear. Never seen white morning glory here, lol.

It's all good. Cousin will get the Gleaner dialed in and then it's easy money.

👍👍

Probably head shatter pretty hard to actually blow corn out the back with the fan

I think you're right about the fan to fast. That's not corn head loss

Well you said it if it was easy everyone would do it it’s definitely not easy but I definitely appreciate all your hard work for my viewing pleasure and definitely know you’re not doing it for the money have you ever thought about getting a A corn head for the old 3300

But the looks of that head that doesn't have any ear savers on it. That would be an easy fix. Otherwise a lot of the shilling that you see is butt shelling. That all happens at the very front in the head. You'll never be able to cure that cuz I'm sure the corn is plenty dry in the dryer. It is easier to happens. Just a combination between the violence and speed of that head and the dryness of the corn. I still have that problem with my corn head and it has the latest technology. The deck plates actually have suspension under them which cures some of that but I still get a bit of shelling just the nature of it. As far as the combine losing any you're on flat ground, so I doubt it's much you can play with settings and sometimes it just turns into a constant tailspin. Plus you're not running a lot of material through the machine so it may be more prone to losing some. They teach us what these large capacity machines. You're better off keeping them on the little extra full side because it's less wear and tear and more grain rubbing on grain action gentler
