That tells the story. Grinding out the nicks does not work and you stated. When I have a nick I knock the knife off and replace the section. I never thought of sharpening until the nick was gone. I do a little sharpening but Dad always had several section bars and would take them to a local welding shop to get them sharpened. Both he and my grandpa would knock a section off and rivit on a new one in a few minutes in the field. At age 70 I only do 4 acres of hay now and just drive up the the shop for the repairs.
I am a one man crew.

looks like a lot of fun. stopping the baler getting off, climbing up on the wagon and stacking a few bales and then baleing a few more. i doubt if i could hold up to it now, but one sunday a close family friend came by and wanted me to haul some hay for him. he didn't let me know in advance and i could only find one boy to go with me. we drove 25 miles to get the hay and i could haul 250 bales one way with this truck and trailer. it took us a while but we put a little over 500 bales in the barn loft by ourselves that day. hauling hay is an art. if your going to pick up a bale of hay know where your going to put it before you do pick it up. don't be all day about standing there holding it and looking around. get-er-done and go on to the next one. while i have a chance let me caution everybody who reads this to wear a good dust mask anytime your messing with anything that is dusty or moled or makes saw dust. there is a lung disease thats called pulmonary fibrosis that is fatal to everybody who ges it unless they have a double lung transplant. do a search on it and read it. it might save your life. to late for me, but maybe it will help you.
