One of those face palm farmer moments.....Net wrap mishap

[AKweldshop]

My roll of netwrap got caught and unrolled the spool, onto one of the rollers of the baler.....:smiley_aafz:

Looks like this will be as much fun as when you run over old barb wire in pasture with a rotary cutter. Don't ask me how I know this.

Yup.. That definitely qualifies as a PITA!

Yes, or running over a bunch of nylon rope with a discbine. It doesn't only wrap around under the turtles, the friction melts the rope all together, and then it hardens... As above, ask me how I know... ;-)

Looks like one of the rotary brushes at your local automated car wash.

Or the joy experienced gathering old barbed wire with your rototiller.

Yikes. And I thought I had problems when the long grass wraps around the weedeater shaft!

Good luck.

I use my lawn tractor to mulch the chain-harrowed horse manure in my paddocks... it's interesting what gets introduced via a round of hay.

But the one thing that constantly gets wrapped around the cutting blades is horse tail hair. Crickey, that stuff is strong!

Or when someone wraps barbed wire around the turtles on a disk mower and wants to cut it out with fencing pliers instead of taking off the disks. Not me but dad.

Or when someone tuns over the tomato cages with a lawn mower. Pulls up and says it's broke and goes inside. That's why I love my wife.

You guys are making me laugh. I've felt a little of that pain before. Usually involved my rough cut mower.

Reminds me of this old story. Document Moved

A few weeks ago we did pass a car on the side of I-40 high centered on a mattress. The pickup hauling several bed sets on edge in the bed with no straps was also stopped.

Years ago, I came upon a pickup lying in its side alongside the road. The truck ran over a loose roll of barb wire that got wrapped around the drive shaft just in front of the diff. That locked up the drive shaft, they went into a skid and rolled over. The three boys were not hurt, just waiting for help with tools to cut the wire loose.
