I always enjoyed filling the wagons, not so much unloading them. Your rig looks mighty slick ! If I could offer one word of advice that will make your wagons last longer., they look like new, and I am sure they are still nice and tight. As time goes by, the constant wobbling going across fields, combine with the weight of the hay leaning on the sides of the rack will make the racks loose and wobbly, and the tops will spread wide under the weight of the load. This happens to all wooden bale thrower wagons with time.What I did to strengthen my wagons was make some simple right angle triangle braces, six feet up the side, and two feet out on to the wagon floor and bolted in place. These style of braces don’t interfere with the bales as the fill the wagon the way stretching a chain across the wagon to keep it from spreading will do. My wagons unloaded from the side, so I put one brace each side of the opening, and one each side at the front. I used the wagons for over 20 years, and sold them, and they are still go out every season. I sure like your bale thrower, if I was doing it again, I’d have one like you have.
