Subject: RE: Horse drawn or gas powered hay baler?



Summer before last at a draft horse gathering near Sebeka MN I saw a couple ways to do that. One was a WD Allis with no engine, and shortened. The horses pulled that, and with the transmission in gear their forward motion turned the PTO shaft. I didn't see it in operation. The other scheme at that show was the standard horsepower with the horses going in a circle with a tumbling rod running the parked baler. There it was catching straw from a threshing machine (run by a vintage tractor).




That was Sunday of the weekend of the power show at Lake Itasca.
