Our neighborhood baling ring started out in 1950 with a Case hand wire tie baler with the Wisconsin engine. I was too young to be involved then as I was born in 51. In 1959 the Case went away to be replaced with a new 14T Deere. I started driving the baler in 1964, the last year for the 14T. In mid-summer of 64 the plunger rod broke in the 14T and it was replaced with a new 24T. I drove the 24T for two years, then I graduated to stacking the rack. The 24T was replaced with a 336 in the early seventies and was used for a couple years but then round bales came in and the square bale days were over. Skip about 40 years and now I am back to baling a little horse hay for the granddaughters with an old New Holland 68 but it’s only 5 or 6 loads a year. Back when we were baling all through the summer and I was young we would bale 900 to 1300 bales in an afternoon. A couple of the men on the crew were ww1 vets so we didn’t push it real hard. We had two of us on the rack so I handled only 450 to 600 bales in an afternoon but we had already unloaded 4 or 5 loads that morning before the afternoon baling. Today if I load one load alone I am completely shot, I’m embarrassed to say, and I’m still ten years younger than those two ww2 vets were back in 1970.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
