Showcrop- I was doing that exact same thing (taking it easy) and it was my downfall. Had never been around one of these mini balers and had only watched videos of them on Y-tube, so that was the closest I got to a real one. Didn't have any plans, either, so this is all made from scratch. When I got started playing with it a few nights ago, I was taking it slow and trying to familiarize myself with it and get comfortable being around it. It takes a micro-slip of mis-timing with your hand and the feeder and you could mangle a few fingers in a blink of an eye, so I was taking it slow and it was causing the baler to be underfed, which led to the bananas. Then I started trying to troubleshoot things to fix that when I actually just needed to get comfortable with it and start shoving hay down it's throat a little faster. The longer I used it yesterday, the faster I got and the bales looked better and better. I also figured out you need to tie those twines as tight as you can get and that helps, too.

Today's Featured Article - Picking Corn - by Rick Nikolich. It was the day before Christmas shutdown at work and I asked our lead engineering expert Scott Andrzejewski what he was going to do over the holidays. He said that he had some corn that he still needed to pick with an antique one-row New Idea corn picker. Scott has a nice farm about an hour north of Lansing in St. Johns, MI. He wanted to get the rest of his corn in by the next day (Christmas Eve). We had about an inch of new snow on the ground and single digit temperatures. So in the bac ... [Read Article]
