Amy I just saw your later post about there being too many acres of hay and too few to bale it. I think that you and your husband are much younger than most of us on this forum. Ask around and go met a few of the ones that bale hay close to where you live. I am willing to bet that if you and your husband are willing to do a little hard work helping one of these people put up their hay. You will be able to get them to bale yours. Many times the problem with having too many acres to bale is that you don"t have the help to handle the extra hay. So maybe you and your husband can exchange some sweat equity for some hay baling. This also lets you learn more about making hay in your part of the country.

As for thinking about an old self powered baler. FORGET IT. Most of those old balers had Wisconsin V4 motors on them. Most where hand crank start. Real hospital visit makers. Ask just about any of the old timer about trying to start a old V4 on a hot day after it dies while hot. I would rather have a root chanel done without pain killers than try to bale with one of those old things.

Well what ever you do I wish you the best. It seems that you and your husband are getting a good start. Buying land is a good way to make life more enjoyable. Just keep focused on the important things. I will not make any marriage advice other than try to put your needs/wants after your spouse"s needs/wants. If you both have that out look you will have a good marriage. I have been married for a total of forty-two years (Lost my first to the big C after 28 years of marriage) been remarried now for 14 years. Seems to have worked well in both cases.

Today's Featured Article - Measuring with Calipers - by Staff. The legs of inside calipers are curved outward at the extremities to facilitate measuring small holes, while outside caliper legs have a large curve inward to increase their capacity for large work. Firm-joint calipers are adjusted approximately by the hands and then set to the feel of the work by tapping them on a metal surface. It is a common practice when opening calipers by this means to tap the top of the joint. It is better, if possible, to tap the inside of the legs, as repeated blo ... [Read Article]
