Ride Along: Large Square Baler with Rick's Custom Baling

[@swiss300173]

Excellent video and an excellent operator on the baler , hats off to you from the UK 😊

[@johanrunfeldt7174]

Farming = legalized gambling. A very apt analysis.

[@rhtplantservices3300]

That euro spec 8670 is a beast💪

[@rickscustombalingllc.841]

She’s stout 🤙

[@hphillips7425]

Good video and interesting. I had no idea how much was involved

[@earlyriser8998]

excellent video on baling

[@carneyrapids7375]

Great video!

[@orantaylor5140]

I was a teacher at that baler school for 2 years almost 20 years ago.

[@finbarroconnell9368]

Great videos 👍

[@larrymoore6640]

Neil, considering monitors, and all the levers is it safe to say that the New Holland tractor was purchased especially to run that large square baler??

[@MessicksEquip]

part of why farmers have several tractors is because of the work that it takes to swap complicated implements around. You would spend a lot of time swapping things around to cut, rake, ted, bale.

[@rickscustombalingllc.841]

Larry, you’re exactly right. That tractor is dedicated to run that baler and spends 75% of its life with us running that baler.

[@obieacres4676]

I have and 8770 and love it

[@larrymoore6640]

@@rickscustombalingllc.841 That's a beautiful tractor and as we were taught you can't do a good job unless you have the right tools or in this case the equipment.

[@leemarchant7191]

When we were running that model baler we tried to only hook it up in the spring and leave it on until fall. When we switched to the 2100 series baler with the computer on the baler we noticed that it was much easier to get things running right after hooking up.

Love this content!

Cool

[@DonSherman]

He seems like good people!

Excellent video, have you had an alarm saying" stuffer safety lock", it continually goes off and would like to understand what I should be checking I have a CASE LB 333 Thanks John !

[@legacyfarmsllc8511]

Probably a broken wire going to the sensor for your stuffer

[@johnhunter273]

Cool series! Ever do any mini round bale machines, designed for the compact tractors??

[@neilramseyer5348]

Great video, makes the person that has no clue how to bale understand. Wonder why you didnt go to Wes for an explanation:)

[@rickscustombalingllc.841]

😂

[@1925sk]

Explain the moisture control in a little more detail . Is that the liquid tank on the rear of the baler. Thanks.

[@tylers7390]

Not much more satisfying than seeing that hay being put up! I'd like to know how profitable the custom baler can be with such nice equipment. Seriously, I'd like to upgrade, but I can't imagine how long that would take to see a return on that investment. My '60s-'80s equipment is functional, but it's not quite as fun as this looks!

[@legacyfarmsllc8511]

I don't know what he's charging but I'm at $9/bale and can run 200 bales a day through my New Holland

[@treedup8410]

What’s the max pressure when your to dry on this baler?

[@johnparkhurst1141]

how much does a 3x3 weigh?

[@rickscustombalingllc.841]

Hi John, these bales are 725lbs

[@farmandtech]

😅Is there any option offered in tractor for automatically making 3point hitch lift when reversing tractor, especially for shuttle gear tractor, 🤔

[@MessicksEquip]

Yes, not uncommon on the larger tractors with electric controls.

[@lindencamelback2305]

Who knew bailing was so complicated?

[@thomaslee6894]

That was a really great video. My Girls entire family farms, and videos like this allow me to understand how and why they do the things that they do. Thanks 🙂 Also, around here. Only the biggest farms use "acid", what type of "acid" is this. Does it just help drop the moisture content, or is it for preservation?

[@MessicksEquip]

Call crop saver. Keeps hay from rotting at higher moistures.

[@davemount2607]

Haha let’s learn enough to be dangerous
