It's great that you got the hay done, I'm like you get unhappy with those little drops of rain, but you got it done. I like your equipment, that v-rake is nice and also love the Massey Ferguson square baler, sweet. Look good congrats on it and I hope you have a good evening!

This looks like fun. Except the square bales. I can't say I miss being on the back of a wagon catching bales as they come up the chute. Love the sound of the 245

Fighting through the crud too. Having to work through something like that and getting the hay off the field. I’m impressed Ben. There have been times I where I realize how much I missed out on working with my dad. The Lord took him home over 50 years ago

Great video - that hay looks beautiful! And wow, you guys *really* got after some acreage this go! So glad you beat the rain and got it in. (And nice to see the 120 in action!). And goodness, hope you’re feeling better. I wound up with Covid on the day I had to get my first hay baled this week, it just about did me in 😅. Good luck on the next batch!

Brings back childhood memories of my weekends at my grandparents farm in Franklin County, VA. Been over 50 years ago, but times I'll never forget. My papa's 135 MF and a sickle mower. Thanks for bringing us back to a simpler time of how it used to be!

I've never used a disc mower. What is the advantage to them? Is it just the speed that they will mow?

Speed and they almost never clog up. Doesn’t matter if the hay has fallen down and become tangled or wet, they just keep mowing. Thanks for watching

Hello Ben, and Godbless you & yours. I didn't understand what you said about "changing pins" on the 3-point to enable it to "float." I understand float on the Front End Loader (FEL), but I've not heard of that on the 3-point. If you don't mind, would you explain that just briefly, pls? Thanks, bro. : )

On the lower lift arms there is a link going between them and the rock shaft that lifts the arms. On that link there is a slot and if you move two spacers into a different position it will let the lower links move freely about 2” on each side. So when going over twisted terrain the implement will maintain ground contact better. Thanks for watching
