Farm equipment is so expensive it’s cheaper for me to buy hay! Your videos are the real deal!
Thanks for watching. Luckily we were able to borrow this equipment but we do see ourselves owning it at some point in the future!
Truth! The guy where I get my large round bales from said "the best hay equipment is a good truck and trailer..."
@@mycenae2 right! cheaper to buy! Fertilizer was more than we could sell bales for!
I have the 3x3 baler that I use every year. Like you it took me a while to figure out. I put up 300 bales last year. Great size bale for sheep and goats.
Cool machine but a little finnicky!
Neat job Brad. I like the red, white, and blue wrapping on each bale. Didn't take you too long to figure it out.
Yes, that was a bonus!! Should go smoother next time! Thanks for watching.
This was a really cool video! I have seen these mini bailers advertised and was always curious on how well they work. Looks like it did a good job. There is always a learning curve but you got it dialed in really fast. Nice work! Take care Brad and Deb!
I've actually never watched a bail machine work. GREAT video Brad!! Awesome to watch!
Love the patriotic bale wrap. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 That baler is so cool! I want one.
Yes sir. We all need one. wink wink
I've used one of these for two years. It does great for pinestraw. Never had a opportunity to use it for hay. I always use the auto function
I should have put it in Auto!! Thanks for watching.
@PineyGroveHomestead it does really good on auto. But you do have to adjust the weight sensor setting on the baler. Otherwise they will be too small for your liking. In auto it wraps when the beep goes off. But you can set it to only beep when you get aheavier bigger bale
Brother, I’m so glad you made this video, I’ve considered buying one of those, but all my friends said “No, don’t do it”….🤷🏻
You’ve give me something to ponder, best video I’ve seen in a while….Thanks!
They say the Japanese made IH855 are better than the Chinese ones. There were some frustrating moments for sure, but once you get everything dialed in, it works pretty smooth!
what on earth would make someone purchase one of these balers? bounce up to something that at least makes a 3 ft bale, or stick with small squares, that are easy to handle
@@buffranchAB Thousands of compact tractors on small acreage can't pull the heavier equipment. Also can't lift the heavier bales.
I call them zipties, but I've also heard them call zap straps, which I find pretty amusing. 😂 Great video, you got some nice shots of the process.
It's a trigger for some viewers! Thanks for watching.
Thanks for showing us your learning curve, very informative
I think baling hay = mistakes!
This was a cool video!!! I really enjoyed it!!!! Thanks for making it. I have never seen a Baylor work before.
Thanks for the kind words. I was a little rushed due to the rain and Deb really wanted to be there, but she couldn't even open her eyes due to the hay dust allergies.
@@PineyGroveHomestead The allergies are no fun
Cool video! Looks like you enjoyed it once you found your groove.
I retire in 5-years and hope to be bailing hay on my homestead then.
It was a slow start. The rain coming didn't help! Thanks for watching.
i had alot of fun watching this. great little unit.
Thanks for watching.
That's a cool little setup
Hi Brad, Nice job. I see what you mean about the learning curve. Its a little bit finicky to deal with but you got it done.
We call them Tie Wraps or Cable Ties arourd here. Dan 😊
I probably made it harder than I needed to....it wasn't my machine and I knew the rain was coming. Thanks for watching!
good job with a tiny bailer
That was a day! Thanks for watching!
I grew up on manual transmissions with a 2 stage clutch, but I like hydrostatic transmissions for certain things.
Manual better for ground engagement but I'll give up some power for the ease of hydro!
This is a better video than the factory version 😂😂. Interesting machine. There's also a self-propelled model. I love the wrap too. I found this video through the short of your wife stacking.
Under different conditions, this could be fun! It was just a stressful day getting it raked and baled before the rain. Hay seems to be more about timing than anything!! Thanks for watching.
Great video, very informative!
How did you pick up the bales?
With the loader bucket....stacked 8 and then dumped them in the pole barn. It was sprinkling, then downpouring. The bales would fall off and I would have to pick them up again. Lightning. It was a MESS....but I didn't have time to film it!! Thanks for watching.
Nice Video. I use the Ibex TX31 twine baler from Tractor Tools Direct with Kubota L3901. I essentially experienced the same lessons learned, having used a JD346 square baler in my youth, A couple suggestions: Adjust your 3pt top link to angle the pick up upward
Thanks for the info! We are sponsored by Tractor Tools Direct. Here's our drum mower video: ruclips.net/video/cA8Q7J_cU8A/видео.html
Great vid!
Thanks....it was a stressful day!
You did a great job with the little baler but I think you should try to find a bigger baler something like a 5x4 or 4x4 so you wouldn't have to stop that often and it would make it easier to stay on the wind row these are just suggestions of course but something to think about
Thanks for watching. We don't plan on needing too much hay for our animals, and we're getting older, so smaller bales are easier to handle!
Go get you a small square baler.
@@dwighttipps414 even a used beat up is $5K
@@PineyGroveHomestead yes I understand that but those bigger balls are too big to move Tham by hand so you would use or tractor unless you are Soper man
Great video
Thank you! What a day.... We raked earlier in the day if you didn't catch that video. ruclips.net/video/_UL4ucOik18/видео.html
😊 Cable ties
Look forward, center on row, side to side of row to even out your bales.
It was our first time....we'll get better!
Do you know how your friend got that baler
Dont know if this is the newer verson of the kubo but if u lift seat up you can get off the chair and still run the pto
Good point....I didn't think about that at the time. Was racing the rain! Thanks for watching.
Im from texas
Tractor Tools Direct has all the haying equipment you need! tractortoolsdirect.com/
What if the is un even road. Does the machines doest need to lift? Thanjs
It rides on wheels and follows the terrain.
Here in New England it is "zip ties", or "tie wraps". Zip tie is more common, but I don't bat an eye if someone says something different. Live and let live!
People like to correct content creators! Thanks for watching.
Nice!
We learned a lot!
Great video. These balers cost a lot more than $5,000 new. More than $10,000 for sure, I believe they're around 11-12k. There are other less expensive brands that are just as good.
They are not cheap. Thanks for watching!
i am buying a AC rotobailer. $400.
Donde se puede comprar
Ole hobby baler. Eff that. My dad has one. I height that thing.
It's got it's place! It's not for large acreage.
@@PineyGroveHomestead eh. I guess. If a person has an inkling of mechanical ability, I would recommend an old John deere 336 baler or the like in model sizes. They just work and eat hay.
I'm sure you found out. It took forever to finish that 5 acre patch.
@ About 8:00... Li k e giving birth. LMAO
It's a neat machine!
Where you buy
Why min roll instead of the old square bails?
I understand the big rolls that are like 20 sq bails. But it looks like you have the same draw backs with the min rolls.
Mini round balers will work on compact tractors. The mini square balers for a 25+ hp tractor cost about $25K. I paid $8K for an Ibex brand twine wrap mini baler. The mini net wrap balers are about $10K...so less than half the cost of a mini square baler for a compact tractor. I debated getting a net wrap, but prefer the twine wrap because I can use hemp twine and just throw the bale over the fence and not worry if the sheep/goats eat the twine - safe to consume and will eventually compost.
Making hay is EXPENSIVE in equipment!
@@mycenae2 i didn't mean a min sq bailer
I ment the old type of square bailer that we used for years the standard sq bailer.
I had no idea that they made a min sq bailer.
And the old sq bailer worked with a 1972 mf 135 pulling it 18x14x36 about 50 or so lbs the old 2 string sq bail
@tbjtbj4786 I wish I could pull a standard square baler on the Kubota L series tractor that I have, but it's just not enough tractor weight and horsepower for a standard square baler. For me, I was better off just buying a mower, rake, and baler that would work for the tractor that I have, instead of buying a larger tractor and bigger hay equipment.
the old 40 years ago little round could get rained on and not hurt.
How much do the bales weigh?
It's in the video...check out when I make the first bale.
Cable ties
I can never remember on camera! Thanks for watching.
Where can I buy this $5000 baler????
TractorToolsDirect
5:40 Get another person to help :(
Had to take the day off to do all this by myself.
you cleared 20 acres of forest? 20 acres of the 1% of US forests that still exist?
No
why not just use square baler with small bales it is much easier to handle?
we don't have square bale equipment. and they are heavier. This was an experiment.
Do you know how your friend got that baler
I'm not sure exactly where he got it, but they are available at Small Farms Innovation. Tell Phil you saw our video!
@@PineyGroveHomestead ok thank you
