Also not sure I have enough implements yet to warrant the cost but it would be nice to say the least.<br /><br />The other thing I am worried about is if I would need to purchase a new PTO shaft if it extended the bars out another 2 inches.<br />PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8788289492661192400.post-67524595264489566662014-07-07T22:26:43.125-04:002014-07-07T22:26:43.125-04:00LOL - Jamby as long as the oil holds out for them ...LOL - Jamby as long as the oil holds out for them to make such things. In china they actually make workers hand pollinate plants and even then they have a very poor rate. Of course if they would just read my post on Obummer's misguided honey bee initiative and how to fix it they could make all the honey bee problems go away for good.<br /> PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8788289492661192400.post-43451859714834174952014-07-07T22:23:37.836-04:002014-07-07T22:23:37.836-04:00Rob - As it turned out we got three, well almost t...Rob - As it turned out we got three, well almost three round bales. We would have gotten at least a full three except there was so much that just got knocked over as it was so thick. Anyway the Step Dad, who is the expert says you should expect about 20 square bales per round bale more or less. So 60 maybe. Of course the next cutting won't be so thick either.<br />PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8788289492661192400.post-14911823231215161472014-07-07T22:21:35.707-04:002014-07-07T22:21:35.707-04:00I asked her to drive over the bumpy spots for sure...I asked her to drive over the bumpy spots for sure :)<br />PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8788289492661192400.post-17027026228876971212014-07-07T22:18:11.163-04:002014-07-07T22:18:11.163-04:00Heh.

I think Ford claimed 27 HP on the PTO but it usually works out to around 20HP for good operation that I have seen. Not really sure what the difference is because I know I can pull things those little 20HP mowers couldn't dream of and if one of them is running after 60 years I would be seriously impressed :)<br />PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8788289492661192400.post-88569640387142134692014-07-07T17:03:41.593-04:002014-07-07T17:03:41.593-04:00So they say.
