    • @4wdfarm
      @4wdfarm 3 місяці тому

      I record at 2.7k and export for YT at 1440p, so the battery lasts about 2 hours anyway - this is usually enough for me. Though I do have a 12v PD charger so it could run continuously on that - I have mic2 now so that would work. It is on a gopro adapter upside down below the mirror. You still have the magnetic clip so easy to take on and off. It isn#'t permanently mounted as I use it regularly elsewhere

    the calves are so cute! how old are they? also saw them eating some hay, out of curiosity, do calves normally get most of their food through milk and supplement with hay?

    • @4wdfarm
      @4wdfarm 4 місяці тому

      They start to nibble hay copying mothers from about a week old, it is important to start rumen (stomach) development but these will be with mothers outside and getting some milk until the autumn, they couldn't survive without milk until at least two months old and after that would not thrive without it.

      It's more heavily built, you do sometimes notice that weight but it seems to ride very smoothly behind Isuzu Dmax - to the extent you hardly notice it is on when not loaded.

I don't suppose it has actually done that many hours here, it is used most days through winter but might be only 20 minutes, then in summer it is just a handful of times when cows are out. They do make an acceptable haybob tractor but the lack of working brakes is not ideal on mine 😯

      It has changed quite a bit since it was mainly Dennis and Paul. Grass from there is going a mile or so to Forest Hall at Castleton, that field by the moor was the only one particularly soft in places, it did rain a bit yesterday which was unhelpful only nuisance rain really though so hadn't wilted much. They did say what the new price is, whatever you are thinking probably double it - good trade in for older one though.

    It looks like an Petter A1 around 1 1/2bhp about manufactured 1950's ? If it's got an Zenith carburettor (similar to the Ferguson TEA/TED20's), the Magneto one of the two Wico, or Wipco ? (Can't quite remember the name of the second one quite?) I did have one but the piston and bore were very badly worn and stopping it came with a big backfire to the point someone nearly had their eyebrows burnt, (happily not mine !!😁) I've got an Petter A around late 30's/40's which is the older one, they are nice engines.🙂

      So far as I know it ran the milking machine vacuum pump for a good few years in the 1960s so was quite well looked after - since it was vital it started and ran Ok. About 1970 it was pensioned off so hadn't run so far as we know for about 50 years. It was in a reasonably dry shed but to be honest forgotten about under other old stuff piled on top. So quite impressive that quite minor tinkering for a couple of hours got it going again.

    Imagine the cost eh, but like most things these days it doesnt seem to matter when it is a public works project. Let our great grandchildren pay for it. If that was a farmer run operation, I bet theyd cut 75% off the cost. Why wouldn't they put the chaps up in a local place for the week, instead of paying them 5+ hours per man, per day, plus petrol and vehicle expenses to travel back and forth each day. They'd not only save money, but get 20+ hours of extra work per man per week. Worlds gone crackers. Makes no logical sense to me.
