Granny's gone and done it again

the bobcat was doing lots of headstands and reverse wheelies today.

hahahaa If you had that here you could dig me a pond.

They have machines that bale the hay.

I have seen them do that here but the bale can only get so big . half of that

but how does he make it ? I am amazed at the size.

OH with a round hay baler something like this

your windrowed hay gets picked up by the teeth/tines in the front (yellow part) and then there are belts inside that roll and compress the hay , When it is full it wraps the bale and then kicks the bale out of the back end.

bigger machines you can "set/program" the new machines to what size or weight of bale you want

Do you have one of those spear attachments that sticks through the center of the bale?

Can you imagine when people had to cut hay and make haystacks by hand?
