Smithy140 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 ah now this is where it all goes wrong , the farmer is happy to let it rot after all it's an old machine he no longer uses so it basicly worthless scrap , that is untill someone shows an interest when it then becomes heart wrenching to just let it go because of course it has suddenly become quite valuable in it's own right , or more like , if it can still be uesed by someone else it's got to be worth someting I think i see what you mean basically the farmer dosen't want it until some one else does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi6920 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 best place for a howard big baler is the scarp heap, hord bales, use to work for a guy that baled with one, i hated carting and stacking those sloopy shaggy things, still send shivers down my spine.....

MJB1 Posted January 17, 2010 Author Share Posted January 17, 2010 I had completely forgotten about those Howard balers till now, but I agree.

Deere-est Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I've hauled silage past this for three seasons now and never even seen this tucked away in here before. Next to a Thames Trader (I think) luton van and a series one Transit. Across the way is a vintage fire engine collector with a yard full of stuff and in a bramble in the paddock is some kind of military comms lorry and a loading shovel!!

Deere-est Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 It is right on the side of a byway but like I say, even from a tractor cab I havn't seen it in three years of using that route before. Would love a rummage around the sheds and pony paddocks here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
