    I have hydraulic’s and 540 pto on it. Made it on a three wheel frame,
    usually pull with two draft mules.Has lots of power and is fairly
    quiet.

    I just use what I have at hand and what is the cheapest.
    Both work fine.

    Andy I agree we should try a pilot project.Keep everyone on site if possible.
    I too find u-tube distracting.
    There is a lot of knowledge out there among our members.

    I think it is an excellent idea and would be interested to partake.
    Frankly I am surprised no one has brought the idea forward previously.

    If the eye is draining, could be the start of pink eye.

    I have the grinding stone attachment that clamps to the mower
    wheel to sharpen the sections. It is hand cranked.The stone is
    beveled to contour the knife sections.
    Does many one know where I may purchase at replacement stone?

    When I built my power forecart I installed a 40 hp diesel engine. It is good general duty cart and is more than enough power for a small square baler but will run a small round baler. You can get small diesel engines in the 20 hp range that would power a square baler. A small car engine would have more than enough power.
    My suggestion would be to use what you have available and what is affordable. A small square baler only requires about 15 hp to operate as it has the flywheel to provide the inertia. Just my thoughts.

    Geoff so sorry to hear of your loss just don’t know what to say. I know real well your head is spinning right now but things will come into focus.Its hard to replace all the things you had, some things you won’t miss till you need them.
    Make a list of inventory while it still fresh in your mind.Keep us a in the loop if there is any thing I can help with just post.
