You and your dad are very busy men between the farming working and looking after machinery

[@DaveWuzHere]

Dad is definitely more busy than me! I work full time behind a desk and only get to help evenings and weekends. Bad run of stuff breaking on us unfortunately

[@yant8777]

You and Dad are not afraid to stuck in ! Do u mind me asking how much was the rotor ? My baler needs one too,lots of stone damage.

[@DaveWuzHere]

@@yant8777 I can't remember. It was before brexit and had to be special ordered from Germany. 3-4k gbp plus vat plus delivery

Baler looks a good age!

[@DaveWuzHere]

She's 2008 or 2009. Starting to show her age but still makes a mighty bale!
