i have seen some that have been made by using half of the siku sprung round bale grad, mounted on its side the arm extended and bent to form the grab with the fitting behind that for the new siku laoder  , not sure if thats any help till i find a pic for you to show what i mean mind :D

If you want the old type conventional bale type of sqeezer/loader like the McConnell 'bale slave' or the Lawrence Edwards 'Perry Loader' from the 1960's and 70's, there are some pictures of these in a topic titled 'bale loaders' from about 18 months back.

thanks  for the feedback. i've sorted it now. just made some bale forks like you  get in the siku loader accesories. used a welding rod and it fits nice and snug into the carrige on my jcb 531
