When I was a kid before dad got a baler we had a "buckrake". It was an altered truck with a large set of wood tines on back. When you brought a pile of loose hay to the barn there was a set of "slings" on the barn floor that had a trip in the middle so the two halves would separate.

We used a tractor, not horses. The person in the mow tripped the slings, the rope was long enough so the end was out from under. Back then we didn't think about taking pictures, wish we had some.
