A sickle bar is a great tool. But- for what a good sickle bar costs or rebuilding one so that it will work correctly and dependably, you may be able to find a decent haybine. Trust me, old worn out sickle bars are a nightmare until you understand exactly how to diagnose and repair them. Been there, done that, got the tee shirt. A $100.00 junk sickle mower that's missing parts and has been sitting in a fence line for 15 years may be just that- JUNK. As someone who has farmed with junk, and still does to an extent, sometimes it's better to get something in operating condition int he first place than to go through the frustrating, expensive learning stage involved in bringing junk back to operating status. I'm sure others here have done the " go forward 20 feet, stop, back up, get off, clear the sickle bar, climb back on, go forward 20 feet" method of harvesting hay. It's not fun, not at all efficient and can drive you back to that lovely house in town where the biggest problem is the garage door batteries needing replacement.
