Driving between fields
Some beautiful country over here.
 
Farm road or public. I know how many irrigation pipes would still be round if I laid them that close to a public road.... none they all be squished flat
 
Must be pretty close to wheat cutting time there. We used to be in Eastern Idaho about the middle of August and then head back to CO by early September to cut there and dig taters. The guy I worked for had 15or 16 circles of each to get in in the San Louis Valley was south of Mount Blaca and west of CO 59 about 8 or so miles. Used to go into Alamosa for supper some nights to True Grits.
 
I've never seen a Hesston/Massey commercial three tie balers 100 pound bales stacked in blocks with stackcruiser.

I don't think this old man could handle 100# bales.

Please post pic of how it works. Thanks.
 
I always thought the NH stackers only worked with a standard square bale. Wonder if they had to modify it to pick up those bales . They are larger , arent they ? Nice pictures.
 
Looking at NH website it appears they have three different models for different sized bales. Also appears a new one starts at about $300,000.00 !
 
Nice pictures and beautiful country. I think I would still have to use my FEL to even get them bales into the feeder at a 100# a piece.
 
If it' set up for 16x18, the wagon will pick those up. Should be good for up to 42 long bales, probably longer with those new machines. My 1010 had a kit available to change it over to accept the 16x18 bales. Holds 56 bales of either chamber dimension.
