Well I now have at least 1 back-up machine for each function of my hobby hay operation.
Multiple clunker tractors, 3 ways to cut it, 2 ways to rake/improvise tedd, 1 way to truly tedd, and now 2 ways to bale it....
Not the prettiest baler, but the darn thing has not been used all that much. Lots of what appears as surface rust in the pictures is chaff - still cleaning this ole bugger up. Plunger wood bearings are even snug and show little to no ware. Bale chamber is in excellent shape. Probably should make it my frontline baling machine but it will likely only be my back-up baler until I can eventually find another NH 65 to match my other baler and then I will likely send this one down the road.
