There’s something to be said about old equipment. Can you imagine trying to get a modern piece of equipment going if it had been sitting that long. The challenges of trying to get all the electronics to work. Gotta love the simplicity of the old equipment. Thanks Pete for another awesome video. And keeping the old equipment alive.

Hi Pete and Hillary. I reaiiy enjoy your channel. Being an 84 (next month) year old central Pa. boy your Little Genius plow video was a pleasant surprise and brought back memories of 70 years ago when l plowed for my uncle on his farm with an F20 and 2 - 14” bottom Little Genius. Still enjoy the smell of freshly turned soil especially in the spring. Seldom get to plow any more but still making some hay on some of my permanent hay fields so l enjoy your hay making as well as the every day things you two do as a great team. Looking forward to the Plow Day video . Hopefully extended or maybe more than one. I spent over 40 years in mostly commercial and industrial construction working with many people including Architects and Engineers. Had some really good teams. I understand what you mean about burn out. It wasn’t hard to retire. Keep up the good work. Many people enjoy your channel. Jim.B.

Tractor loading up and sounding very sweet with the old plough. I always think back to the Victorian days when a couple of steam ploughing engines did the rounds for hire. Watching the plough head running on wires to and from the underslung drums, is a sight to behold even today. Seeing the Shire Horses working in tandem doing that job is awesome too. Thank you for posting best from the UK.

Fun listening to the International pull. We farmed in the 60s with W9 (4 bottom) and she had the same sound. Pulled a 4 bottom with pony drill(4ft). Rode that tractor many, many hours. We would stop and try to catch baby jack rabbits when we were plowing and seeding at night. When we would start back up, we had to lift the plow. That would leave a ridge in the field where the combine would 'jump'. Biggest problem was trying to stay awake. The tractor would follow the furrow 'most' of the time. But as soon as you fell asleep, she would jump the furrow. Thanks for the memories.

WOW!! What an awesome video of turning the soil. When my dad began farming in 1946, he started with a new Farmall H and a 2-14s IHC plow. I learned on a 1950 WD Allis with his J D 2-14s. He had a wide front end installed so I could handle the job much easier. He would follow me with his 1949 Farmall M and a 3-14s unit. We made a great plowing team turning over 5 furrows each round. Thanks for the memories, Pete.

What memories of my youth plowing for my father with our H and 2 bottom plow! My grandfather bought the H and "Little Genius" plow new in 1940. He didn't like the plow and traded it for an Oliver 2 bottom which I used many years. Later I had a 5 bottom with my IH 560 Diesel which made the job go quicker! Thanks for the memories.

Pete, I envy you on your plow days at the show your neighbor is hosting. I would love to see that and even run a tractor like I did many years ago on the farm. Every time you take the super C out with the utility trailer, it brings back lots of memories when we would get seasoned wood from the plies we stacked and take loads to the circular belt driven saw, off the back of the tractor, then split it up, and get it piled and stacked. We had three families that lived near each other, so my father and two uncles shared the equipment, and worked together, so we had wood to heat the three homes.😊

This reminded me of my uncle who explained to me how they used to plough with horses and then with steam engines, you need 2 steam engines one at each end of the field the plough is attached with a steel cable which runs between the two engines one pulling the cable and the other winding the cable in on a large turntable, after the plough reaches the end of the field the engines move along by the width of the plough and the engines change the direction of the turntables. I was only about 10 years old at the time but I still remember him standing at the side of the field telling me about it. PS it was 68 years ago, So thank you Pete and Hilary.xx
