Don't you folks be laughing now! This old ( I think about a 1956)New Holland "Superhayliner 78" is still going strong. I pressed up 529 bales this morning and it didn't miss tying a one! :lol: :lol:

She's a beauty!

Have you got the hay picked up out of the field, or are you sleeping out there with your shotgun? Those bales would fetch $12 around here.

Gotta brag about my old (1994) Claas, which has rolled at least 15000 bales with minimal maintenance. She rolled 80 bales of cornstalks in a couple hours just after noon today. Tough stuff, those stalks but she just ate them up.
 
Mighty good baler. Had one like it, found it in a fence row. Cleaned up and put up and about 3 thousand bales the first summer.
 
One just like it behind my father's house. I've used it for a deer stand on more than one occasion.

What are you baling?

Sudan X sorghum. Stuff never had a chance. We planted in May and it was 6 weeks before it got a rain.

Got one light cutting off it back in August.
