Buy good used, stick with NH or JD. Avoid NH 66 wadboard baler unless you just plain like to suffer. Avoid equipment with large amounts of repair welds or conspicuous amounts of irregularly bent metal. Get copies of the manuals, both NH and JD are good about that. Consider getting a bale elevator run by either a small electric motor or gas engine. Also, think about at least one decent haywagon with tires and gear that will stand being towed 20 some miles an hour. But first, examine your commitment by testing yourself. During the middle of the hottest available day, bang your head against a wall for 5 or 10 minutes. That'll help prepare you for what may well lie ahead.
