DIY Redneck Yard Tractor Trailer to Fetch DIY Tractor Ballast
This Video is from the Youtube channel: “Rob Bob’s Aquaponics & Backyard Farm”.Β
G'Day Folks. Here's a look at the Redneck Yard Tractor Trailer I knocked up using a hand trolly. It made moving the DIY Tractor Ballast we found on a recent walk in the bush a lot easier to move.
Will post an update on the rain we've been having later on in the week.
Hope you're all having a fantastic one.
Rob, B & Jack. πΎπΎ

Looking fantastic mate. We have had some great rain this year in south east Queensland should be a good growing season. Hopefully we have seen the last of the frost.
As soon as I saw you hitch that trolley up I thought, “why doesn’t he connect it to the other bit in the middle?”
Have you got a proper car jack ( a lever pump one) you can put a small wood plank to balance it better, then pump it up holding on to it so it doesnt tip pump it up to height wrap a chain and ya good. If you cant get ya height get it to where you can, chain it, bring the jack back down add some extra wood, pump it back up get to new height, re chain, rinse repeat until its where ya want it.
Other than that if you have some thick planks, put them on top of the tractor front end put the weight on the bottom use ya ride on lawn mower and a post and push it up slowly till its on top put a chain through and attach that, then pull the plank out and where it drops is where it lives haha
Be careful not to over grease the clutch pedal. You don’t want grease going inside.
Smaller tractors are great for manuvering while slashing. I love my little 4ft iseki slasher, compared to the 2m flail mower on the David Brown. Perfect for 20 acres
Watch your back mate a frame sounds like a plan. Dont know if you tested the gold pan but where I would try is your creek crossing. Behind it down flow you would have to go all across it gold deposits on inside curves where all heavies and gravel banks form but your crossing will work like a riffle and cause turbulence causing the gold to drop out of the flow. Also behind trees that are in and close to the water gold drops out there in flood. Thats where I would be trying first.
Buy a ferry to cross the road in your wet season, Hope your feeling much better soon get out and do a morning jog around the place or turn one of the sheds into a Gym lol
Oh wow, flashback as soon as I saw those tractor pedals! Maybe 1971 I was riding on a newish Ford just like that in Stanthorpe! I think early 60s… Awesome : )
Hi Rob, You might have noticed you have two break pedals on the tractor. If you unlatch them, you can use them to help turn. To turn left, hit the left one, you’ll find you can turn on a dime, to turn right, hit the right one, just be careful and take it easy.
Just a thought…What about welding a handle to that chunk of metal to hook onto the front of the tractor.π
I had the same idea as B about the trailer shackle. I guess she’s more than just a pretty face.
Perhaps those headaches could be due to allergies. There was an area we used to go in summers that did me the same way in autumn.
