I gotta tell ya.........it about whipped my old ass too. I cut........tedded........raked.......and then baled a few hundred square bales. My brother in law rolled the big fields for me (thank God).

I cut about 35 acres with a 7' sickle........tedded with a two basket tedder.......and raked with a 10' ground driven rake. Yeah..........I need better equipment to cover that much ground.
Yup I get that......
It may be slow and old but its getting the job done!
Ive seen so many small farms go under because they want to be like the big boys and just keep buying new stuff. Dad made a Damn good living by staying small and only replaced stuff as needed.

It might be hard work but it very satisfying when your done!

I had three different guys ask me last week how I cut hay with a sickle bar. I told them that I had to learn how to tune it before it cut good. They just looked sorta like.........huh????

Including the tractor I have less than 10K in all my hay making stuff.........so I'm doing ok on it.

Figured I would take a break seeing as I have a ball stuck to each leg, and I'm not even sure if they're on their corresponding side or not. But look what the FedEx dick left on the porch...

No pics of the stuck balls please.

Not a problem, hadn't planned on it. At least left was left and right was right. Still, came apart like Velcro...:yikes:
