	Son Scott and I are looking at big round balers and like with many other things the more 
we look the less we are sure of.   :-)   Does anyone have particular preferences in big 
balers? Some we have been warned away from then the next person we talk to will say that 
they had one of those and loved it... We looked at about 10 of them Sunday and one that 
was reasonable and in good shape was an IHC 241. Is anyone familiar with those?
	I might mention that we will likely be baling less than 50 acres a year with one (the 
rest will be small square bales). Also repairs don't scare us much. By the same token we 
don't want to start out with a basket case or a real trouble maker.
	We have noticed that some have wide belts at the sides. What is the purpose of that? We 
also looked at some that had a twist in two of the belts???
	Thoughts appreciated.   :-)
