[QUOTE="mnmtranching, post: 416960, member: 3937"] The chain balers are very durable and bales in all kinds of hay and straw. Bales start very easy. I'm not sure but, I don't think any body still makes chain balers. The drawback with the chain balers is, rough on hay, like alfalfa, clover oats. and when chains wear out, expensive to replace. Bales aren't as tight as modern round. I have a old 846 NH that has baled over 15,000 bales and I still use it for grass hay. I think for most cases a later model belt baler is best. If I were to buy a older cheap baler I would get a NH chain. Up here a decent shape chain baler is under 1,000 bucks. [/QUOTE]
