That type of baler and it was a John Deere is responsible for me being here now. Grandpa on Moms side had one and Dad hired on to help run it and that is how Dad met Mom, They were married in 1941 and I came along in 1943 and that grandpa died when I was one month old. In better days I had a pair of the 116W Deere balers,older and newer style. Took to some showes. One I baled a few bales with just to see how it worked and still being in my 50's I did not have enough strength to lift them. They were that heavy. That is one reason the wire balers left when twine became avaible as the twine balers did not make those real big heavy bales that older folks and women could not lift to handle those big wire tie bales. Our first baler was a New Holland 66 twine baler and bales at 36in length were only half as heavy as that Deere sindwinder 116W made and we shortenend then to 30in to make them lighter weight.
