It is frustrating when you get off work a little early and rush home to finish brush hogging and you have a flat tire on the tractor. That’s common where I am because we have the luxury of having an ample supply of honey locust trees that help folks who fix tires stay busy. They’re not the thornless kind that you have in your yard, they have giant thorns on them that are awfully tough on tires.

There’s good news though. If you’ll invest in a product that I use called Multi-Seal (and this is not a paid endorsement, I used to sell the stuff and I use it and I can tell you it works) you can get back in the field about as quickly as I did this video.

You also don’t have to go drag a jack out of a machine shed to get the tire up in the air. If the tractor is equipped with a front end loader, you have a built in jack right there. Just put your bucket (or in my case, pallet forks) down flat and push down on the joystick. The tractor front end should come right off the ground and you’re ready to fix the tire.

Now, as I say in the video, if I was going to take the tire off I would definitely put jack stands under the front end. I never trust tractor hydraulics to hold weight up over a period of time. They usually do, but if there’s a leak in the system or a hose ruptures, it could lose pressure and come down. But, in this case, I’m just lifting everything up to make sure the tire isn’t off the rim. You can tell it’s been flat for a while.

Once I’ve determined that the tire isn’t off the rim (if it is you may have to take it off and visit the tire shop), I’m pretty sure Multi-Seal will do it’s job. I remove the little valve seal with the tool provided with the Multi-Seal bottle, squirt in a bunch of the product, put the stem back together, air the tire up and spin it around and it’s repaired.

Multi-Seal will enable you to prevent flats before they happen if you prefer. Just fill the tire to the recommended level and you shouldn’t have a flat unless you cut a huge hole in it. I use it on my lawn mower and in the tractor tires, unfortunately it’s not cleared for highway use so you’re not supposed to put it in the pickup tires.

I keep a bottle of Multi-Seal on the shelf at all times just in case a tire goes down. It’s not cheap but when you figure your time to take a tire off and go get it repaired, it’s worth every penny. I especially recommend it for industrial application, like skid loaders.

Easy recipe for Southern Smothered Chicken. This Tender Chicken is smothered in a creamy onion and garlic gravy. I used simple ingredients that can be found at any grocery store. This dish is definitely a soul food favorite, and is usually served with mashed potatoes, or rice. This chicken would be great with Southern Collard Greens, and Cornbread.

When he was a teen, Link Knight saw his uncle go bankrupt and vowed to stay out of debt. Years later he moved into what was left of his uncle’s old home (a family home from the mid-19th century) in rural southwestern Victoria, Australia. The building was missing walls, filled with junk (his uncle was a hoarder) and not connected to the grid (“Since the power system was privatized in Victoria in the early 90s, it would have cost “over 43,000 dollars to get the power connected”).

Link eschewed the large generator that his uncle could never afford to run for a self-installed mix of photovoltaics, propane appliances and low-consuming fixtures (e.g. LED lights). Comparing installing solar to “hanging a picture”, he used – for his main system- two 120-watt panels on star pickets connected to a 30 amp charge controller and 2 batteries (for 200 amp hours). He setup a dedicated system for his solar fridge: one 120-watt panel running off 100 amp hours of batteries.

The system is minimal, affordable and, Link argues, proof that there’s an alternative to buying your way off-grid. “There’s this myth going around that you can’t go off the grid cheap, that you need to put in more than 50,000 dollars worth of solar panels in order to live off the grid. I can tell you for a fact it is cheap to set up off grid”.

Not all appliances feed off his PV setup. He uses a propane freezer, a camping stove (also propane), a wood-burning stove for heat (in his bedroom) and once a week he turns on his small generator for laundry day.

To maximize his generator time, he runs 3 twin tub washing machines (designed to be used without mains pressurized water, he manually moves the clothes between wash and rinse cycles) and simultaneously runs the pump to the refill the overhead tank that holds his household water supply.

Currently his rainwater catchment system is too small for all his water needs so he has to rely on pays to have his reserves refilled by truck, but he hopes to improve his catchment and avoid this cost in the future.

Right now, he saves 80% of his income and his largest expense is his internet bill (he spends a lot of time posting to his youtube channel), followed by the water bill. He does shop at the supermarket, but he has had tougher times economically when he has relied on foraging for things like native peas, stinging nettle and wild honey and hunting Australia’s “national pest”- rabbits (something he can do on foot with his hands).

He admits some things are a bit more complicated, but “there’s a lot of ways and means that you essentially end up achieving what you had on-grid anyway”.

==========================

“The Wild Colonial Boy” is a traditional song from the mid-nineteenth century, with two primary versions (Irish and Australian) and numerous variants of each.

The original version was about Jack Donahue, an Irish rebel who became a convict, then a bushranger, who was eventually shot down by police. This version was outlawed as seditious so the name changed.

The Australian version is quite different from the Irish version that is more commonly heard in the US and Europe. It is about a boy named Jack Doolan, born in Castlemaine. The poem then continues on to tell of his exploits without mentioning his moving to Australia, which implies that the Castlemaine in question is that in Victoria.

The exploits of the legendary Wild Colonial Boy is thought to be something of a composite of historical bushrangers of the era, based primarily on “Bold Jack Donahue”, with snippets of other infamous bushrangers such as Ned Kelly and others. However, there was a historical figure of a juvenile bushranger name Jack Doolan that may have also been a basis for the Australian version of the song. Historical Scholar Allen Mawer has written extensively on the colonial and maritime history of Australia. His pamphlet on “The Life and Legend of Jack Doolan, the Wild Colonial Boy” was published by Mulini Press, Canberra, in March 2004. More historical information about both the famous song, legend of the “Wild Colonial Boy”, and the history of Australian bushrangers can be found at the Australian National Centre for Education at:

============================
Lyrics for a common variant of the Australian version of
“The Wild Colonial Boy”

There was a wild Colonial Boy,
Jack Doolan was his name,
Of poor but honest parents,
He was born in Castlemaine.
He was his father’s only hope
His mother’s pride and joy,
And dearly did his parents love
The Wild Colonial Boy.

At the age of sixteen years
He left his native home,
And to Australia’s sunny shores
A bushranger did roam.
They put him in the iron gang
In the government employ,
But never an iron on earth could hold
The Wild Colonial Boy

(CHORUS)
So come away me hearties
We’ll roam the mountains high,
Together we will plunder
And together we will die.
We’ll scour along the valleys
And we’ll gallop or’er the plains,
And scorn to live in slavery,
Bound down by iron chains.

In sixty-one this daring youth
Commenced his wild career,
With a heart that knew no danger
And no foreman did he fear.
He stuck up the Beechworth mail coach
And robbed Judge MacEvoy
Who, trembling cold, gave up his gold
To the Wild Colonial Boy

He bade the Judge good morning
And he told him to beware,
That he’d never rob a needy man
Or one who acted square,
But a Judge who’d robed a mother
Of her one and only joy
Sure, he must be a worse outlaw than
The Wild Colonial Boy

(CHORUS)
So come away me hearties
We’ll roam the mountains high,
Together we will plunder
And together we will die.
We’ll scour along the valleys
And we’ll gallop or’er the plains,
And scorn to live in slavery,
Bound down by iron chains.

One day as Jack was riding
The mountainside along,
A- listening to the little birds
Their happy laughing song.
Three mounted troopers came along,
Kelly, Davis and Fitzroy
With a warrant for the capture of
The Wild Colonial Boy.

‘Surrender now! Jack Doolan,
For you see it’s three to one;
Surrender in the Queen’s own name,
You are a highwayman.’
Jack drew his pistol from his belt
And waved it like a toy,
‘I’ll fight, but not surrender,’ cried
The Wild Colonial Boy.

He fired at trooper Kelly
And brought him to the ground,
And in return from Davis,
Received a mortal wound,
All shattered through the jaws he lay
Still firing at Fitzroy,
And that’s the way they captured him,
The Wild Colonial Boy.

(CHORUS)
So come away me hearties
We’ll roam the mountains high,
Together we will plunder
And together we will die.
We’ll scour along the valleys
And we’ll gallop or’er the plains,
And scorn to live in slavery,
Bound down by iron chains.
