I know everyone was joking below. But I do that very thing happened here. The family had several other business and also owned several hundred acres. They didn't pay much and you can imagine what kind of help they had to run the farm.Four of the hired hands were baling straw with a old John Deere 14T. They had baled behind a F gleaner for years and the neighbor that cut the wheat had traded for a L2 The 14T didn't like the windrows at all. One of the help got the idea if the baler ran faster it would take the windrows better. They cane up with a 1000 PTO shaft that would fit in the 14T. A friend saw what happened, he said for about 6 bales you never saw anything like it! About the seventh bale she came unglued! The tractor driver ended up under the tractor, 2 of the guys on the wagon got under it & the third didn't quit running till he was in the barn.They hooked the baled on the pick up & took it to a JD dealer & said fix it. Now the farm owner got a repair bill on a 350.00 14T that cost 4750 to fix
