[QUOTE="Bez!, post: 194734, member: 2830"] Well, I use an old New Holland for the farm that makes 6 footers. A couple of calls to the dealers in your area will certainly solve your problem. You need to provide a bit of info - like - new? used? NH 650 will do the job, [u]any other hard core baler[/u] that has a silage kit will do - you can set the bale size and start baling. One nice thing about this is you are not nailed to simply baling at 4 feet. If someone nearby wants you to do up a few for them you can set the size a bit bigger if need be. I use the 650 for custom stuff for the smaller producer - I make them 4, 5, or 6 feet in diametre - all are 4 feet wide. It will bale wet / dry and tie or wrap. I have used JD, Case IH, NH and Gehl. All have performed well in my opinion. Vermeer is a big name in many areas but I have never used one. A local here has baled for me every once in a while when I get behind. He uses the Vermeer with good results so I would not be afraid to go that route either. Far as I am concerned, the colour has never mattered. What really matters for the used stuff is how it has been maintained. Bez! [/QUOTE]
