- This is the DIY hand baler we now use on the farm. It can be used to bale just about anything; Pine straw, hay, alfalfa. The plans our baler is based on is found here:

Cheers for this, Will now be designing and building one here in New Zealand
Thank you so much for sharing this video. I showed it to a local carpenter and I must say he did a good job!! Very pleased. Asante sana
Can it be used on balling plastic
That's pretty cool, Thanks for the plan
Nice! Good idea, good job! I need to make one of these.
Take care!
The back baling twone goes up the inside of box and out top and down the outside box with loops to catch on hooks - out of tbe way and stationary until bale is finished then over the top of bale and out through front slats where tied to bottom ends of twine - open door and pull out
vey nice! Will have a go at this for sure.
I'm thinking of putting a post in the ground to mount this to. I have a fourwheeler and a trailer, so I can bring the material to the box easy enough.
You could also upcycle pallets for this I'm guessing. That'll go good for the weight issue! Ha ha ha! Great ideas on use
Thanks for the idea. I have a ton of pallets laying around, lol
Could you explain how the bailing wire/twine is employed please?
Thank you so much for sharing
That beautiful smile @5:00 .
Just me being who I am here, but it looks like if you were to put slots in the back side as well, you wouldn't have to fight with keeping your twine in there, you could put it in after. Do you think that would work?
You think something like this could be used to bale autumn leaves?
Add some 🚴 peddles to the handle so when U press the one ur making u won’t need ur hands
your wife does alot of standing around!!🤣
Hahaha... Funny thing is, she now runs the whole farm and a crew of 2 and grows enough vegetables for 2 farmers markets, an online store and 3 restaurants. She wasn't part of this build as much as seeing how it worked. She's a beast!
Hey there, the plans have been taken down and impossible to find online. Is there any way you can get me a copy of your plans? Great video!
Thanks for the heads up! here's a link to plans that are very similar: www.lsuagcenter.com/portals/our_offices/departments/biological-ag-engineering/extension/building_plans/horticultural/equipment/pine-straw-baler

Hi there could you e mail me the plans and how to put it together,I have been trying to get hold of this info for ages but no one wants to share anything, there are plenty of videos on how they work like yours but no plans or how to put it together,I have gone to the site to try and down load it but the site says it has been taken down, I don't know if that's because I'm trying to access it from Australia. Could you please help me, cheers.
There are other plans out there if you search around. The ones below worked for me just now.

Can it bale plastic especially pet
Whe are you from
Can you bale aluminum cans with this?
I suppose you could, however I'm not sure how well the "bales" would hold together. Grass, hay and pine needles all hold together because the long strands essentially "weave" together to form a solid mass.
Yes you can. I made one for cans and it works pretty well. If you compact them pretty good then they do stick together decent. But it will only work with cans that aren’t crushed to bad. You also can’t throw them around to much and have to be gentle with the bales or they will fall apart. And sometimes they don’t stick together very well at all. Good luck!
Thanks I'll give it a try.

evry link i go to for the plans are dead.
www.oakhillhomestead.com/2007/09/hay-baling.html I found this on pinterest last year and made one. honestly it doesn't matter the size just make sure you put slots in the front and back to tie it and a door to allow the hay come out easier.
I'm pretty sure you can still buy plans with all the details you need on Stodoys.
