Red Mist, I wish I had the pictures of the old farm hand type loader that my M had on it for all the years I was younger on my grandfathers farm. Back in those days they didn't have stack wagons for hay, it was all by hand. After all the fields were baled with small squares there was a very large attachment that went on the front of the Farm Hand that had around 20 long spear type tubes that made the bottom of the bucket if it was a loader. There was a flat hydraulic push off plate at the back. What you did was run through the field with those tubes running on the ground and the bales would ride up on on top of the spears. When you got a full load which was around 15 to 20 bales you would lift the whole thing off the ground and drive to where the hay stack was being formed by 2 or 3 guys doing the stacking. Then push the bales off and go get another load. The size of that old style loader was much larger than what we think of loaders today. The size and style of loader I'm going to put back on it doesn't come close to what that M handled for more years than I can remember. It's amazing what these old tractors can do when equipped properly.
