[man] Let's go!
[wood crunching]
Hi. My name is Tractor Ted,
and this is the farm where I live.
Here is the farmhouse.
Do you know who lives here?
[bird chirping]
Farmer Tom and Midge, the dog.
Here is Farmer Tom.
He pulls on his wellies ready for work.
And here is Midge, the dog. She's very cheeky.
There is always lots of work to do on the farm.
[engine starts]
[engine rumbling]
I wonder what they're going to do today.
Let's go and see.
Farmer Tom has come to help Les with some fencing.
Hello, Les.
Oh, look. Cheeky Midge has hopped out of the car.
She wants to have a look too.
[lively music]
She is having a lovely look around the field.
Les shows Farmer Tom some fencing which needs to be done.
[Farmer Tom] Okay.
Do you know where fence posts come from?
Let's go and see.
This special machine is called a harvester,
and it's used to chop down trees.
Here comes the driver.
[birds chirping]
Up into the cab he goes.
Today, he is going to cut down some trees
that will be made into fence posts.
[engine rumbling]
The harvester has lots of big wheels
to help it drive over bumpy ground.
Wow, it is very bumpy here.
[engine whirring]
The harvester is cutting down a huge tree.
[saw whirring]
[wood crackling]
[sharp thud]
It is so clever, it can cut the branches off.
[sharp clanks]
And it can even chop it up.

[wood crackling]
♪ Roots and mud ditches and ruts ♪
♪ There's nowhere that I can't drive ♪
♪ With my powerful engine and six massive wheels ♪
♪ I'm the perfect machine for the job ♪
[sharp thuds]
Look, there's only one tree left.
[Tractor Ted honking]
Wow!
The trees have been cut into big logs, ready to be taken to the sawmill.
[birds chirping]
Back at the farm, the children have come to look at Farmer Tom and Les
put in some new fence posts.
[engine rumbling]
-That way a bit. -[Tractor Ted] The posts need to go in nice and straight.
A bit more. Wow, too much!
Back a bit.
A bit more!
[Tractor Ted] Wow, watch out, Les!
Wow!
Too much!
Wow! That way now!
[Tractor Ted] The children love watching.
[chuckles] Les is having a problem getting it straight.
-It isn't very easy. -A bit more.
-Wow! -That's better, Les. well done.
All right, Les.
[sharp thud]
[Tractor Ted] I wonder what's happened to all those logs.
[engine rumbling]
Oh, look! They've been collected and are at the sawmill already.
The lorry is full!
First, it is weighed to see how many logs it is carrying.
Look at the big wheels!
Can you see how many there are?
Let's count them.
One...
two...
three...
[engine rumbling]
...four...
five, six!
The driver sits on a crane
and lifts the logs off the back of the lorry.
Look how many there are!
At the sawmill, they can be made into lots of things.
Let's go and see.
[engine rumbling]
Look at how many logs the loader can carry!
It puts them down carefully.
[sharp beeping]
[lively music]
Oops! Watch out, you've dropped one.
That's better.
The logs go into the sawmill.
The sides are cut off the logs with a machine.
[high-pitched whirring]
Then, they move along and are cut again.
Logs can be made into all sorts of things.
These ones have been made into long square posts.
[engine rumbling]
[birds chirping]
I wonder how Farmer Tom and Les are getting on.
-That's alright there, Les. -Yeah.
-That one looks good. -[Tractor Ted] Wow, they have finished all the fencing.
-[Les] Yeah, that looks alright as well. -[Tractor Ted] What a good job.
[birds chirping]
[sheep bleating]
Now the sheep will be able to move into this field
and they won't be able to escape.
...Thank you!
[engine rumbling]
It's the end of another long day.
Farmer Tom has finished his work and is back at the farmhouse.
Come on, Midge.
Midge has had a fun day, too.
I hope you have enjoyed seeing how fence posts are made.
See you again soon.
Bye!
