I don't have a stake in this,but I wanted to give this guy a good word. There's a place called Andrews Engineering and Machine on M57,three and a half miles west of 127. I saw his ad in the Farm Trader. For the heck of it,I took two rollers out of the round baler over that had had bearings go out and scored the shafts. He said he could weld them up and turn them back down. I went and got them today. He built up BOTH ends of one and one end of the other for $35 per end! Unbelieveble! He had a shaft there out of a combine grain head that must have been 10-12 feet long and he said he built that one up and turned it down for $35. Check this guy out,he has a web site. Just Google it. It'd sure be nice to keep this guy in business.

The 1st shop I ever worked at is like that too. I brought in a bunch of shafts for my uncles gehl 1600 round baler and it came to somewhere around $25-30 per end, but there were a LOT of bearings that went bad on that one. I think atleast 6 rollers needed to be fixed, if not 8.
Place is in NE Wisconsin in Freedom, right on hwy 55. They make sprockets OEM for AGCO as wel as a few other local manufacturers as well and the price is always reasonable. I just had them make me a stub shaft, and replace 2 smaller weld on sprockets on a drive hub for our Gehl 920 wagon and he did it all for $35. Great guys to work with.

Always used Gross Machine shop in Westphalia. Only 8 miles from me. But that other place looks great too
I have a guy I use here in mid Ga. that I believe can machine anything, He is from New Jersey and about 65 years old. He just machined same legs to fit a commercial meat grinder for My BIL $80 and they work great. He is gonna help me fix all the pins and bushings in my skid steer when I can get it by there.
