When I built loads I used to build most rows 3 across end to end 3 levels high and 2 widths deep to make it nice and wide/stable. Then the next level would go on front to back making sure the bales covered the joints between the center and outside bales. Each level would "pyramid" in by 1 bale again covering the joints of the last level. I'm 6 feet and I could put 7 levels on then from the floor of the wagon. The only place where I did 1 front to back with 2 across was between the supports for the back rack that ran up on an angle on each side from the sides of the wagon. I think that was 3 levels also to clear the supports. We would usually do around 15000 bales a year between first cut, second cut, and straw so I built a pile of them. Then we got a CaseIH centerline baler with a thrower from an auction really cheap and I was sooooo happy.
Man i cant imagine how you feel it was pissing me of how lazy and unaware that hippo is driving the tractor he really needs to watch what hes doing before he hurts someone
I think I nick needs pull his weight a bit. Hes good keep the seat warm he wouldn't last over here with work ethic didn't even close the bloody gate.... good job well done Jacob
Not to mention not watching Jacob setting up the baler, engaging the PTO when his leg was about a foot from the chain, THEN moved forward all while not having a clue where Jacob was.
You make some great videos! Some feel we are still in the stone age with our square baling - no accumulator/grapple or bale wagon. What we have done is move from stacking as you are doing to using kicker wagons off our baler with thrower. The labor saved in the sun and on the wagons is a blessing. Like you, we can park loaded wagons in our barn and unload later. I think bale kickers are not so popular today and you can find a used one fairly inexpensive. I'd say with you guys' mechanical abilities, installing and maintaining a bale thrower on your New Holland would be a snap and a nice winter project. We've still got some hay to bale and will be going at it through October and maybe into November - weather permitting. Thanks again for the great videos!!!
Boehm Farm - if you look at our channel, we have small irregular fields and use a JD baler with a pan kicker. You can adjust the distance of the throw and tilt it side to side to hit the wagon in turns. The NH belt throwers do the same. Don’t get me wrong, I can put some bales over the sides, but after the first wagon of the year and I get acclimated again, not to many bales miss the wagon. The kicker wagons really are a blessing on our farm. Take care!
Hello Guys & thx for nice baling video. Because U mentioned it the steps thing makes a lot more work of it, keep your feet on the wood & stack them high as you can reach & call it a load. Keep it safe & please put the guard back on the pickup drive chain.
He doesn't seem to be the most vigilant operator. Even making Jacob get off the wagon, walk the length of the baler and tractor to move the gat that's 10 feet from him? While Jacobs running around stacking. I'd have lost my wheel, I know help is hard to find, must be family or something.
My feeling about Nick is watching him in previous videos with help like him is like working alone he doesn’t Impress me at all it makes me feel sorry for Jacob .
I was 17 and with a friend. Dad ask me to bale the hay in the field. Dad always liked 75 lb bales but at 17 I was sure I knew better than Dad and loosened the twine to make 50 lb bales. At 7 bales high the wagon was full and we headed to the barn. But along the way the first 2 rows of bales collapsed and it all fell. The next 2 hours were spent re-baling the hay at 75 lb bales. I never told Dad what I had done but from then on I always made 75 lb bales
So glad my uncle upgraded to a small square baler with the bale launcher so we had to stop doing this every year. Hard work that sometimes never seems to end
My "go-to" flooring for cotton trailers (wagons) was putting cattle panels over the 4x4 or 4x6 cross beams... most of the old wagons we had were built to have a pair of 4x6 beams running the length of the wagon for a floor frame, with 4x4 or 4x6 cross-beams spaced about every 4 feet front to back, for sideboard pockets. Most of them had wood floors at one point but those rotted bad and so I replaced them with a pair of overlapping cattle panels front-to back down the length of the wagon, and then covered that with 1x2 hardware cloth to make a steel floor... used tie wire cut-n-twisted about every foot or so up and down and side-to-side across the floor of the wagon to hold it all together. Worked like a champ. Used to load those trailers up with 2-3 bales of seed cotton and could pull the sideboards and use them for hauling round bales when needed. IF I were hauling round bales on them, I'd usually add some 2x4's spaced out about 2 feet apart across the width of the trailer running lengthwise to spread the weight and keep the panels stiffer... for cotton it usually wasn't needed, or far fewer, all depended on the spacing between the cross-beams... if they were about 3 feet apart a panel could handle the weight, if it was 4 feet or more, I'd usually put a few 2x4's down the length of the trailer just to make sure the panels could handle the weight. Later! OL J R :)
Square bales are hard work, I have a flat eight sledge, I then stack them in piles 7 high and then get them with a trailer that grabes the piles and moves them in one go. Don't really have to handle them until they go up in the loft. As I am mostly on my own it works well.
LOL you should have seen some of the stuff we had for cotton trailers (wagons). Grandpa had a couple of old ones built about 20 foot long on old car frames from back in the day, we got one along with a one-row picker they bought back in the 70's, it was on a mid-50's Chevy pickup frame... that thing was a "dodger" going down the road... it'd fish-tail SO bad it tried to pass you once you got over about 30-35 mph. It was tall because it was short to take two bales of cotton. Grandpa had an old tilt-deck trailer built out of the back half of an old 1950's straight truck that was used to deliver tractors back in the day, we put sideboards on it and used it for a cotton trailer, hitched to the back of another cotton wagon-type trailer. Had an old cattle trailer with no top built way back in the late 60's or early 70's out of welded together pipe, lined it with 2x4 wire and replaced the floor with cattle panels and 1x2 wire and hitched it behind another cotton wagon type trailer for a double. Had another trailer built from an old 50's flatbed truck with the cab and bed removed, and a swivel assembly welded up and bolted to the front I-beam axle-- that thing pulled SO STRAIGHT I used it for years hauling hay to Shiner-- it'd do 70 mph down the highway coming home behind the pickup, no problems. Grandpa had another trailer he had built back in the 50's or 60's, it was basically an old grain truck flatbed with stake pockets, built out of old truck frame rails welded together with some old 4 inch steel well casing pipe, with a single low-boy HD truck trailer axle welded solid underneath it... tongue was made out of HD well casing pipe as well with a pin hitch and that thing was SUPER HEAVY so you had to use a big jack to hook it up. He'd used it for a hay trailer and I put sideboards on it and made it into a cotton trailer, and knowing the gin wouldn't mess with a trailer-type hitch (just wagon tongues) I made a "dolly" for it out of 4 inch channel iron welded into an "A-frame" with a pin hitch in the front, and a drawbar on the back, which the well casing tongue was permanently hitched to with a 1.25 inch bolt, and put a rear axle out of an 82 Ford Crown Victoria Dad had bought to fix Grandma's wrecked 83 Grand Marquis for a work car... the rear end was locked up because his co-worker's wife had straddled a parking tie in a parking lot and the rebar was sticking up enough and pulled the stamped metal cover on the back of the axle enough to let all the oil out, and she ran it long enough to lock up the axle... he sold the engine out of it and junked the car. I pulled the axle out, knocked out the melted-down pinion gear and its partially melted bearings, and then took the center out of an old broken disk blade, welded a big carriage bolt to it, squirted half a tube of permatex sealant around the pinion nose of the axle housing, and stuck the disk blade center right up against it, put a piece of 1/4 inch iron bar I'd cut to fit on the inside of the axle where the pinion gear would normally be, put it over the bolt through a pre-cut bolt hole, and then put a lock nut on it and tightened the sh!t out of it... Hammered the cover flat on the anvil and put sealant around it and bolted it back on, filled the axle with oil, and she's still running to this day! Bolted the axle directly under the A-frame with some clamps I made out of 4 inch channel iron with long big ready-rods, and presto instant trailer dolly... even saved the old plastic fenders out of the car fenderwells, welded some scrap 1/4 x 2 flat iron to the frame, and heated and bent them around so I could bolt the plastic fender liners to them, so it wouldn't sling mud on the cotton or the back of the truck pulling it to town on a wet road... Worked like a champ! Built another wagon out of 8 inch channel iron for the frame and crossmembers, and put a couple of old grain truck axles under it... Rear one had springs, front one was solid on a fifth-wheel type swivel like your anhydrous cart. Worked good, used it to haul bales to Shiner too for a number of years. Finally decided to ditch the grain truck front axle fifth wheel setup though when I needed another cotton trailer, and built a home-made version of the front dolly wheels and mini-gooseneck setup on those nice hay haulers you have for round bales (or were borrowing)... two pickup spare tires close together on a swivel made out of 4 inch channel iron, a cross-pipe the spindles slide into and are welded in place, and an upright made out of pipe that will just slide inside another pipe welded to the trailer with an A-frame "mini-gooseneck"... all held together with a big bolt from the top into a blind nut welded to a plate welded to the end of the inner pipe, so it can't come apart accidentally. Pulls great 70 mph down the road all day long. We usually pulled all our cotton trailers in tandem hitched together; we got several smaller old trailers given to us over the years when we bought picking machines from other farmers... just used to be customary to throw in an old trailer or two on a deal to sweeten the pot I guess... One old wagon Grandpa had was built on a Model A car axle suspension... they'd welded some stuff to it to install a wagon reach between the front and rear ends, but it still had the old banjo type rear axle and the hubs and drums BOLTED onto the spear-type rear axle shaft sticking out on either side with a single big nut! The reach had gotten bent years before I ever came along and it dogtracked badly, rear end stuck out a foot or so to one side--- because the rear axle was always turning the wagon to the side, it would weave badly-- I pulled the reach straight with a come along and chained it in place to keep it straight, and tightened up the tongue swivel and stuff and then it steered great... loaned it to somebody decades ago and they never returned it... LOL:) Later! OL J R :)
@Sigurbergur Andrésson I would think square bales are better for storage just because of how tight you can stack them you get nearly all the space. We do wrapped bales so round are nice for storing outside and wrapping. Not as nice on our hills since you gotta watch out for rollers
Well we switched to rounds because 1) Grandpa wasn't getting any younger, 2) help was getting VERY hard to find even back in the late 70's/early 80's because NOBODY wanted to stack bales anymore and 3) Dad was working 60 hour weeks 7 days a week at the nuke plant and basically had to take a day off to stack and move hay. Round bales were really a godsend because it eliminated the need for help to do hay work... Grandpa baled by himself because we dropped all the hay on the field, but it still took two people to pick it up off the field and stack it on the trailer-- one to drive the truck or tractor and the other to walk alongside and stack, usually 3 people because usually one walked alongside and picked up bales to put on the trailer, and the other stood on the trailer and stacked bales. With a round baler, I put up 87 big rounds off 14 acres in four days by myself-- day 1 cutting, day 2 raking, day 3 baling, and day 4 gathering bales off the field and stacking them in the hay storage lot. NO WAY you could handle that with small squares by yourself in that amount of time, well, maybe with an accumulator and grapple or a hay wagon, but not many of those down here... Even feeding small squares was a pain... day before you needed to feed at Shiner, Grandpa had to hitch up the truck and trailer, back it in the barn, load the trailer full of bales, next day we'd haul them 100 miles to the Shiner place, then Grandma had to drive the truck while Grandpa rode the trailer cutting twine and flaking bales apart for the cows... so STILL a two man job at a minimum... PITA... Later! OL J R :)
Oh boy first cut in October, those cows are gonna be eating grass seed. Also I hope nicks driving the tractor for you for fun if he won’t even get off to move the gate. Smh hard to find good help these days.
Stacking bales on a trailer is my job on our farm aswell. We have a ''slide'' that lifts them up over the trailer or what you call them. After a few fields and a few shoes lost my fingers are more swollen up than should be possible
bro, I would have been pissed as soon as he started that baler and rolling after you kicking that block. Aint no way someone should so that without asking you if your good on your end and clear. Or atleast yelling and communicating what he is doing. He did look but just from them actions that man is unsafe and I hope he doesnt injury anyone.
What is the second hole to the end in the draw bar swing for? A narrower tractor? or wider tractor? Like maybe if you were using the 14 or 10 and keep the windrow beneath you?
You should see if your landlord would let you rent a second tractor or an automatic bale pickup and stack trailer. It would sure beat doing it manually and they're capable of handling a wide variety of bale sizes.
idk if it possible but maybe you can put a thrower on the baler instead of the slide and put like a wall around the trailer so it schoots the bale in the trailer so you dont have to get tired and get a heat stroke
Fescue is great cut late. The seed head has deteriorated and it mostly gone. I told a Hay jockey when it was cut and everything. He thought it looked great.
You need a hay hook- didn't they show you 5 high & a tie loading hay- outside windrows are always heavy! one lousy stack job, wonder any of it's on the wagon
after watching the recent farm accident at Grigg farms you probably should not be standing while traveling that fast on the road . Would hate to see something bad happen that could have been avoided .
Nick’s too lazy to go close a gate? And he doesn’t pay attention for shit. Tell you what I hope the walking cheeseburger has a health excuse for being that way. Pisses me off for your sake just watchin him.
You like to have had to load that field twice! 🤣Anyway, Congratulations on a good hay season. 5,500 bales ain't nothing to sneeze at 👍😊

My only issue with a kicker is the small fields I bale and how many bales will be tossed during a turn and miss the wagon?

Nick throttles up with the hay wagon ready to tip. Jeeze I would have not let him get another burrito till he restacked it if he had dumped the load.

Nick wasn’t watching you when you were getting the block out. He needs to watch where you are at.

And that's why round balers were invented. Laziness
I wouldn’t want my family farm any other way
I agree for those reasons

Not gonna lie it was rather irritating to watch that guy make you get off the wagon to move the gate
👍👍👍
Big like for this video, again the small Ford doing a big tractor's job, hope that wagon have good brakes lol
Omg. that Lean on the end of the video!
What a labor intensive way to stack hay. Thankfully someone invented an accumulator and hay grapple.
If only I had the barn space to unload with a grapple.
@@boehmfarm4276 Well you could still load the hay wagons with one and save some time.
Yeah, the precariousness of the load came through! Square bale hay, sometimes it sucks to be you 😆!
You dodged some bullets there.Remind me not to loan you anything that I really care about.You worked your tail off on that load.
Against a!l odds it made it to the farm yard , time to call it a season !!!
Yep, it's time for silage and ear corn!
Eventually u can skip the kicker wagin.go straight to an acumlator.looks good even on that ricikty wagon
That is one overload wagon!
Dude that’s a hell of a stack job. Damn near 100 bakes if not more n she had gravity cheering her on n it stayed on all four.
Oh boy first cut in October, those cows are gonna be eating grass seed. Also I hope nicks driving the tractor for you for fun if he won’t even get off to move the gate. Smh hard to find good help these days.
Oh, ya! She just about went ! Lucky you.
I would say the tractor driver is weaving like some drunk
Drive it like u stole I mean borrowed it
That was a serious load you had there.
I made sure it was full.
Stacking bales on a trailer is my job on our farm aswell. We have a ''slide'' that lifts them up over the trailer or what you call them. After a few fields and a few shoes lost my fingers are more swollen up than should be possible
That is a very sketchy situation there. Fill bad for the snake a little bit lol. Hope all is well
Work work work work work work. Small squares too
bro, I would have been pissed as soon as he started that baler and rolling after you kicking that block. Aint no way someone should so that without asking you if your good on your end and clear. Or atleast yelling and communicating what he is doing. He did look but just from them actions that man is unsafe and I hope he doesnt injury anyone.
👍👌🇨🇦❤, I had a girlfriend way back, I also told her she had one curvy rack, 🤔😉🤣, that didn't get me anywhere
What is the second hole to the end in the draw bar swing for? A narrower tractor? or wider tractor? Like maybe if you were using the 14 or 10 and keep the windrow beneath you?
If I'm driving, I like the middle hole because it keeps the pto straight and I know how to drive.
@@boehmfarm4276 well we all know you could do it Jacob!!! But what is it for lol!!! You got a manual???
Hello love your videos
You should see if your landlord would let you rent a second tractor or an automatic bale pickup and stack trailer. It would sure beat doing it manually and they're capable of handling a wide variety of bale sizes.
Nick almost baled you!! Hope he pays better attention.
Bales look like they have a curve to them. Tighten the tensioner on one side to square them up
Jacob I've heard about the leaning tower of pisa but sheesh man that had to have been a 15% lean
holy shit nick is trying to make you stack the wagon twice
idk if it possible but maybe you can put a thrower on the baler instead of the slide and put like a wall around the trailer so it schoots the bale in the trailer so you dont have to get tired and get a heat stroke
Nice video, you're a hard working guy. Are these bales for sale or for your own use?
The squares don't stick around long.
Please please please ask nic to focas on where you are before engaging the baler really don't want to see you get hurt.
haha, Rod Blago!! yeah need him out there bucking bales!!
What’s that farmhand loader infront of the bin for?
Either of the little Ford's.
AWESOME...... nice job 😎
Good stuff
it does.
Did you figure out the fuel problem on the Ford you bailed with last time thanks for the videos
Yeah, I got it running, but forgot the camera.
First cutting in October? Can't be much quality. I would have round baled it. Use the barn space for good hay
Fescue is great cut late. The seed head has deteriorated and it mostly gone. I told a Hay jockey when it was cut and everything. He thought it looked great.
Ok. I was assuming it was just regular mixed orchard grass.
get hay sold, do the other fields in round bales if your short on time / people
Rounds are for giving away weeds.
Damn that looks tiring, ever considered a NH bale wagon?
Yes, but won't work with the barns.
I don't miss tossing those IDIOT BLOCKS one bit !!
Great video
Nick and you don't take turns on the wagon?
Nick wouldn't be able to keep up.
Need you a 1037 stackliner like us!
That was close! lol
Great to see you guys again! I like Nick! He seems like a great guy.
Haha he is somethin' I met him over the weekend. Little loud..., but a nice guy!
He not bashful with the throttle! 😆
@@rogercarrico4975 let her eat son lol
This wondered where the international tuba to is have you still got in there did you get rid of it
It's waiting for winter to get finishing touches.
Are you trying to say 2+2?
At 14:00 I see an IH tractor loader sitting off to the side, what did that come off of/what does that go to?
That's farmhand loader that will fit the little Ford's.
Do you sell any of the hay
Many squares do not stick around.
You need a hay hook- didn't they show you 5 high & a tie loading hay- outside windrows are always heavy! one lousy stack job, wonder any of it's on the wagon
after watching the recent farm accident at Grigg farms you probably should not be standing while traveling that fast on the road . Would hate to see something bad happen that could have been avoided .
Especially with nick driving!
Nick’s too lazy to go close a gate? And he doesn’t pay attention for shit. Tell you what I hope the walking cheeseburger has a health excuse for being that way. Pisses me off for your sake just watchin him.
You're telling me.
Nick needs to learn to stack
👍👏👏👏
Sbakes thing was funny
Btw it's Pisa.
Where is the 2+2 that belongs to that hood?
It's in the cinder block building waiting for winter to get finishing touches.
Get a stack wagon
No need to hit the gym after a day stacking bales!
Made it
Would not like to have that driver
use hay hooks
That's not how you spell Pizza... lol
Where is the 2+2
Waiting for finishing touches this winter.
Hello
We did 14000bales small squares no sytem just stacking. 5500 is nothing lol
Nick is lazy he's a accident waiting to happen
Stupid way of doing the top tier ... no binding quality.
If it's falling off, it'll all go.
@@boehmfarm4276 Nope. Backboard stopping it falling off the back. But top tier should be around the other way to prevent sideways fall.
