So with the prototype working I now have enough happening to warrant its own topic.
So starting with the prototype, works on the same principle as a real baler. Feed straw in, compact, tie string, push out the back.
Looking down the bale chamber. Note the three holes on each side that hold the string in place. I've found that the middle string is necessary to stop the two side strings slipping off during compaction, the middle string isn't tied and is just removed once the bale is pushed out of the chamber. Its possible that the two outer strings need bringing closer to the centre.
Showing signs of wear but not till after it had proved the theory.
The bales from the prototype, these leave the chamber at 28mm long but due to a design issue I couldn't tie the string very tight and have now stretched out to 35mm.
