@thebigperc What’s the go with this Craig is this a product you sell or can other farmers purchase this from somewhere?

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

Near 30t a minute of grain unloading seems like there could be a big mess but these bins are very easy to control making a quick safe unload. Short video of 28t in 1 minute. Sold By MJM Equipment in vic

@AndrewKoop Hi Andrew I haven’t measured each screen to see which has more comming out this is a 60ft auger we also have a 35ft done. The 60ft does a better job. Most engineering shops can do them Chris march engineering yorketown or kingsway welding both install them.

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

Originally these screens were installed to remove small snails today there removing canola from lentils allowing Nipt1 grading

@ArthurErnest101 @sam_edwards4 Do you mean the auger? We also have a set of blanks for the auger so it can operate as normal.

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

@sam_edwards4 Hey sam 3.5mm punch hole we tried 3.2mm but didn’t do a good job with snails like the 3.5mm

@Jeremyw02517075 More I could tell you sorry the few suppliers we called were sold out of duck feet so we went with this option

Corflute Macdon FD75 Reel finger mod doing a good job with light lentil crops this year

@agbyte_leet Definitely tedious Leighton hopefully season there not required

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

@GailAlfarATX That’s great but in australia will it do the same? With our laws I doubt it

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

@paulD74465326 I agree agriculturally rich yet no radar it’s a no brainer there needs to be one

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

@Voz_Dennis Your updates are always good I’m in too

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

@penfreshorganic This is great Wayne what brand model did you get? And what’s the capacity of the unit spray width, water rate and area per hr inc filling etc?

@DaveyJohn_676 This is the best post I’ve seen for a while it’s great to see his passion for farming can be brought to his lounge chair. Nice work guys

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

@cb_doge @elonmusk Can someone explain why the Australian government wants to sensor this type of content. It clearly educates us what is happening so when it does happen we all don’t just stand around oblivious.

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

@kenno23 Nice shed 👌 well done hard work and dedication paying off!

@jimbobobaroo @LowBoomLowDrift This will get you close jim

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

@LowBoomLowDrift We’re running the Husqvarna 450x Nera so far it is doing well you need to cut a lot more frequently than a standard mower because they only do a maintenance type cut. The Nera model uses the Husqvarna epos reference station so you don’t need to install all the guide wires too.

[Michael Thompson @Albs315]

@AndrewUphill Totally agree here Axi Chem need to sort their marketing out or change industry’s to kids books. all we as the farmer want is clear labelling on what the active is and the strength.
