Deere-est Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 3. Your first 'round bale' 4. Apply the tape, turning the bale as if it were on the table of a bale wrapper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hej tack för den kommentaren här är en liten beskrivning på vertyget. Jag har klippt till två runda mässings plåtar stora som balens diameter sen har jag borrat ett 3 mm hål i centrum och lödat dit innan mätet från en sockerbit den hade också en innerdiameter på 3mm . Sen är axlen en 3mm pianotråd . har borrat ett hål i den ene plåten sidan om mitten som bilden visar så man kan trä bal bandet i när man börjar linda sen skär man bort den bit balband när balen är klar. Sen är det bara att sätta verktyget i tex skruvdragaren och snurra på balband och stryka på lim under tiden man lindar på balband jag har andvänt trälim.

BC Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I'll stick to Tris's method at least I can read and understand his instructions ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Try warming the tape up first Tris, it makes it a bit more pliable so it stretches to the shape of the bale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 I'll have a look at those links later Peter, thanks Cheers Jase, I will give that a go too and compare them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas Ok Bas I will do my best He have cut two brass plates the same size like the bales.And then he has drill a 3mm hole in the middle off the plates and then take out the metal in the (sockerbit ...se pics don't know the word on English) who is also 3mm.After that he has soldering the metal part from the..sockerbit.. to the plate and put a 3mm steelwire (piano) thru the plates.Now you can fix it with the small screw on the ..sockerbits part.After that he has drill an other hole in the plate to fix the string (same that you use for real bales.)Now you can put it in the drill and add some glue for wood until it's full I hope you understand mate \ \ :D :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Now that is a cool method from Ruben! I've got a roll of sisal baler twine somewhere. I can envisage some disasters if the drill is too powerful though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Now that is a cool method from Ruben! I've got a roll of sisal baler twine somewhere. I can envisage some disasters if the drill is too powerful though. I suppose if it had a screwdrive function you could turn the speed and torque right down.

Murray Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 nice one tris what i like the most is that it rounds the edges leaving it like a bale unlike if u wrapped a siku plastic bale looks well must try it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FB Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Exactly what I like Murray, pull the the tape tight and it rounds the edges. Perfect may sound bad Tris but a good way to warm up tape is just to put in under your armpit, seen it done loads of times....and other ways :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
