[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 390501, member: 2862"] I don't use sisel twine around here. I don't think anyone has around here for decades. About the only reason we ever dropped squares on their sides was for the New Holland picker. It wouldn't pick up bales laying flat. As for not buying it, mss, how much alfalfa hay do you guys put up? If you've got some, go grab a few stems of it. You take a stem of alfalfa, stick it in a glass with the stem down. Check it in awhile and you'll find that water has wicked it way UP the stem. In a few hours, it'll be soaked completely through. Take another stem, lay it flat on a pan of water. It'll take much longer for water to soak through the stem. If you don't believe, give it a shot for yourself. As far as the accumulator goes, I assumed you guys were talking about auto stackers. Those things that accumulated three bales in a pyramid shape and spit them out the back? To be honest, I forgot all about the style you're talking about. Rod [/QUOTE]
