All the other posts about a shock horse are missing one detail. It is as they say a large saw horse with only one set of legs with the top rail resting on the ground at the end without the legs. Now for the missing part, a couple of feet from the legs there is a hole drilled in the top part. Use that hole to stick an old broom handle, head cut off. That will make it so that when you start to set the bundles they do not slide along the top rail and fall to the ground. Put the first bundle against the broom handle from the low side, then put the second bundle against the handle on opposide of rail, now go to top side of handle and put one in each corner and continue adding one bundel to each corner till you have 12 or 16 bundles set up, have to keep equall all the way around or weight will cause shock to fall over. Same method can b e used with hand cut and armload carried stalks. now pull the handle out, now pull the top rail out pulling on the legs so there is nothing to stop the top rail from pulling. Now you can continue adding more bundles one at a time working around the shock going to opposide sides to keep weight ballanced till you have it as large as you want it. Then take a piece of rope and pull the shock tight so you can put a piece of twine around at rope height to tye shock together so it does not fall over

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
