    Good idea 👌when putting the hose on baler you could put a quick coupler so you can unplug it when unhitch

    I've just picked up an old Cooks sledge (to replace our awful Browns one) and I'm about to do exactly the same type of thing!

      haha, funny how people have the same ideas! unfortunately I never got finished so couldn’t test it 🤦‍♂️. only good thing on a browns is how the draw bar folds round to change positions. it’s a pain in a field changing a cooks over

    Hello sir I am sending you in response to the sledge you published on TH-cam. I was wondering if you have any plans you could share with me so I can can build
    one myself.

    • @casto-
      @casto-  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      hello, sorry I have no plans. many of the sledges were built in the 1970s and many remain in service and for sale in the uk
