Yep thats the one ... I plan to take 10 bales lay them out and start drawing and building the accumulator for the FEL.

I am interested to know more about the squeeze ... I couldn't see from the pic. I assume when your bales are acumulated in the buch of 8 bales then your machine "squeeze's" them to lift them ... how about unloading?

Situation: bales scattered over the hayfield--use the accumulator to gather bales in groups of eight. When this step is done, remove the accumulator from the squeeze (it's detachable) and pick up the bale groups one at a time and stack on transport device (generally a flatbed trailer). Once that's done, my job is over (I have no need for baled hay around my place--no animals to feed) so I don't get involved in unloading bales.

That photo I posted doesn't show the four brackets that are welded to the tops of the squeeze arms (two on each arm) to attach the accumulator.

Thanks ... clears that up.
