Okay, so I went out and took a few more measurements, and here is what I have come up with, but I need to know if they are going to Jive or not!
Right now, if I were to put a 2 foot over hang off the FRONT of the wagon, and then I had 45 inch tongue, I would be able to hook it to the back of my NH 68 Baler, and the bale chute would be flush with the edge of the front of the deck on the trailer.
Question 1, 45 inches seems like a very short tongue to try to be maneuvering around! what do you guys think?
Next is the actual design of the wagon, I tried guessing and measuring as best as I could, and I was going to try to build HayRack's design, but due to the fact that there are no crossed 4x4's, the deck would just barely clear the top of the tires, I mean by about 3/4 of an inch...
I think at this point I am going to go with a design like MoMike's, or Super-H-Mike. I like the idea of the crossed 4x4's for height, and I am not sure I am competent enough to make a super nice, parade looking one like HayRack's.
That is just the plan of the moment, but I need to talk it over with my dad, because even though I put up the money and labor, we are still partners in crime!
