[QUOTE="504RP, post: 1693075, member: 40335"] No I never used a baler like that. I would sure hate to have to use one like that too. Having to do that would probably take almost twice as long to bale a field of hay. Wouldn't be as much of the idea of it taking so much longer to bale as it is having to be out in the heat twice as long. Exspecially now that it seems to get hotter than it use too. It's kind of like when i was a kid. They didn't have round balers. Everyone put hay up in small square bales. I hauled several thousand of them along with two other boys for 15 cents a bale that we divided among the three of us. After paying for the truck gas we each got less than a nickel a bale for hauling and stacking it by hand. Didn't have a tractor loader with bale hooks to pick up 8, 10 or 12 bales at a time. I bale a few hundred of thoes small squares still to this day only because i have the bale hook and accumulator to do it with. But I wouldn't mess with it like we had to by hand when i was a kid because it wouldn't be worth it to me. [/QUOTE]
