[AT] New Baler

[Herb Metz]

Spencer,
So your baler tires aren't that good, but they are not as bad as Farmer 
occasionally noted  "The tires were so bad that you could almost see the 
air". Herb(GA)

Could be Dean . (-;

I did not get a chance to do much with the baler.   Had to catch up on the 
chores I missed standing around at the auction.

I had a good trip home.   I brought an air tank when I picked the baler up 
yesterday because I noticed the tires were low.  Without the manuals yet I 
figured on 30 pounds and off I went at 25-30 mph.  Kept stopping to let 
traffic by and check on things.  The plunger side tire kept getting warm and 
twice I stopped for 10 mins to let it cool.   Now that I have the manual I 
found the plunger side tire should have been 45 pounds.    That would 
explain it.  Otherwise it was uneventful.

A Farmall super m with a "b" grade paint job and restoration brought 2500. 
A Farmall H that was an older, restoration brought around 1600-1700.   The 
bidding hesitated at 1100 and I jumped  in with 1200.   Thought I had it but 
bidding resumed.  A ford 3000 that was rough as a cob and "county owned 
yellow" brought $4200.  I about fell out of my chair.  That was a $3200 
tractor on a good day.  The rear tires were good though. Lots of tread  but 
some minor checking starting to show up..

I will get some more pics for everyone in a day or so.

Ps.  The draft pin rope I would swear is original, as is - unfortunately, 
and the only knock I have on the baler -the tires.   I don't think the 
weather checking  in the tires would handle 45 pounds.
