Bale Bandit

Scott,
My thoughts exactly---the best of both worlds.
I still can't get the PDF file on the Multibale Big Pack--can get all others--but not on MultiBale.

I guess I should qualify my statement about big square balers being expensive---it's all relative--if you have large volumes of hay to produce, initial price is not the principal factor.It all boils down to cost per bale (or ton) produced over a period of time.
The cheapest equipment, is not necessarily the least expensive. This is especially true ,when calculating costs in large operations.
I have told many prospective customers that are considering getting into the hay baling business, that the least expensive piece of machinery used in baling hay is a tractor.I have received many expressions that indicated that they thought I was crazy. But when you figure the costs per bale (or ton),allocated to each piece of equipment used, the tractors come out the lowest,simply because a properly maintained tractor will outlast (and be worth more when sold or traded )than the other equipment.

Makes sense. Just as you said, it has more resale value. Besides, it gets used for every step of the process assuming only one tractor. I dunno any hay farmer that only has one tractor but the principal is the same.
