Hi
I have an old Bamford BL58 Baler that was fairly common here in the UK in the 60s. BL stands for Bamford-Long, and the workings of it are the same as the Ford 530 and Long 680. First question, are there any more balers using the same innards?
But more importantly, can anyone point me in the direction of somewhere in the US I can get knives for it? I can't get them here. The baler has done very little work, but the previous owner sharpened the knives from both sides :confused2:
I'll get them machined if I have to, but it won't be as good as a new set.
Thanks in advance
