Thanks Lucas! I've been telling my whole family all this time that I've been fixing this baler that I'm going to be so happy when that first bale comes out. Very satisfying 👍👍
Great seeing all your family working together, I always say during my hay working days, there's no better sight than seeing an empty hay field when taking the last load out
My family made our first round of hay this year, south East Ohio as well. The consensus is that the grass grew thicker this year than it has since the late 70’s, your windrows might not be too far off for normal conditions, this is just an odd year.
Congrats on getting it working. You give me hope. I'd really like to start doing hay in my fields instead of just brush hogging them to keep them under control.
I got it going for a little while, but wow I'm having a time getting it going again lol. I was the same way. It feels way better making hay instead of just mowing the fields
@@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse That's why I'm scared to get older stuff. I'm not as handy or mechanically inclined as you. Lucky for you you have all those farm hands to help.
Square balers are a chore but once you learn them, you will get a lot out of it. Takes a lot of work but it is satisfying. I had to do the same thing with my square baler, learning the process of how to make it all work!
Not gonna lie, I loved the big grin on your face when the first bale tied off. That’s a great feeling. Good work!

That’s awesome!
Thanks buddy! It was a great day

Can't wait to do it again 👍👍

Awesome you got it working! I’ve really enjoyed these videos
I really appreciate that buddy! I've really enjoyed making them and figuring out all the equipment. Dream come true for me
Great seeing all your family working together, I always say during my hay working days, there's no better sight than seeing an empty hay field when taking the last load out
I like that too. Makes the fields look really nice, and they green up after the next rain
Congrats! Making that first bale on new to you equipment is always fantastic.
Thank you! I was getting worried we weren't going to get any bales at all 😆
