I have masde hay with old tractors and machin es for nearly 40 years. It can be done if you accept some limitations. Your H or Ford will run a sickle bar mower fine, probably your 100 too. Depending on your location you may need to crimp your hay to speed drying. Your tractors are all a bit small for a haybine, but would handle a crimper fine. Anything you have will do for raking. Your H will handle a small baler. If you pull a wagon behind the baler the Ford would be too light, especially if you have any hills. Live PTO is a great convenience, but not a show-stopper. I never had it on anything and I got by. You just need to allow for the limitation, don't be in a hurry and have fun doing it.
