We had some problems with thick grass that did not get cut on the hay field.
Gave us problems when trying to rake and even more problems when trying to bale.
There was a "mess" left over that needed to be cleaned up.
Some of y'all might remember my post about dump rakes a few weeks back.
Located <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osvyzXyy0p8">a complete, working rake</a> that we thought would help us clean up the mess.
It is a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCuZWL9hbts">McCormick-Deering Model M</a>; don't have a clue as to its age.
Was lucky enough to find 2 owner's manuals on eBay for the old rake so I bought both of them.
Old <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOKFDbRTlZQ">rake works</a> exactly as we expected and does exactly what we needed it to do.
Looks like I'll need to get some red paint for the rake and cream colored paint for the wheels.
