New Idea T-6 Baler Running

telephonic · Oct 11, 2021

Hey guys,
I had made a post about my New Idea T-6 about a year ago just looking to see if anyone had any info on it. A few of you had asked for some more detailed videos of it running.
Well, my club just finished our yearly show and I took a video as asked.
For those that are interested it's here:

Anyone that has questions fee free to ask!

That is a really cool baler. Have only seen a few pictures of them & they're usually wire. Do you have any more video from further back to show off
more of the machine?

Yes, please let us see it.

Thanks for the replies! I have added a couple more videos, that's all I have.
One is from last year and the other is a longer video from 2004, that was the last time I actually had him in the field.
Let me know if you have any questions.

A local scrap dealer had a very good one there a few years ago. I have no place to store it so never asked about it. He sets the better
stuff off to the side for a year or so and sells it or sells parts off it. I hope some collector got it. Tom

Me too, hate to think that one went in the crusher.

Telephonic,
Those videos are very interesting. I would be interested in talking with you more about your baler. I have some information on
these and have a W6 wire baler. Email me. [email protected]

Many thanks for posting the other videos. It's great to see that baler in action. Looks like it really has an appetite.

Those were fluffy windrows, he's fairly particular about how much hay you feed him and where you feed it in.
For some reason it matters if you run the windrow down the center vs the left or the right of the feederhouse if you want consistent bales made.
