We must use our balers a whole lot more than you folks. When commercial farmers around my home town are done with their balers they are scrap. I went to a consignment auction here in Ontario, I wouldn't have given them $50. per dozen for the balers at auction. I know most of these guys are hobby and part timers. They soon want as much for their time at hobby as at work. When you have 1,2, or 3 thousand bales of hay in windrow and weather threatening, you cant spend 8, 10 or 12 hours tinkering with and old baler. I have seen these part timers buying those old balers. You take a drive by their place and there is a half dozen old balers along fence rows.

The two square balers I farmed with each baled 30,000 bales a year for 12 to 15 years, and believe me all they were when I was through with them was scrap. If I were to return to farming today I wouldn't hesitate to buy 56, 06 or even letter series Farmalls, the forage equipment however would be shiney new iron.
