Looking for a plasma for the farm. We do some fab work and repair work.

Oops! I meant Bale Skiis. Has anyone here used them and how well did they improve bale consistently? I have a NH 315 that I am going to rebuild the plunger and bale chamber.

This is our rig. Oliver Superior Drill with grass seed box. We plant wheat, soybeans and oats in the large box and alfalfa and clover seed in small box. Old but works well.

I am wondering what year is it? I am assuming 50's. Serial# 38 34191. I am assuming the 38 is the model and the following number is the serial#. It has 7.60-15" rubber tires, metal seed boxes and hydraulic drop and raise. Red wheels, 6 bolt pattern wheel. The drill is green with yellow...

Any hay makers going? If so, what equipment is on your wish list?

Picture of my son raking with Ex 450 and Kuhn GA300GM rotary rake. It is a friend's tractor.

A little different approach. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dq_iSCHJek&feature=youtube_gdata_player Love to try one :)

First cutting finished in Indiana. Dry and hot this hay season in the Hoosier State. The last 2 seasons were wet. Finished first cutting in July last season. Yield was off by 40% this year due to the dry weather and late freeze after 80° temps in March. I did a 17 acre that yielded 78 rounds...
