Looks like a good roll up Wazza .Don't know a lot about farming ,but that David Brown baler would be a bugger of a thing when picking up the bales wouldn't it ..Every other baler i have seen leaves the bales in a row behind the machine which makes them easier to pick up with the bale loader .

Yep it was a big turnout .As for the baler ,I have never seen one like it before either ,but I imagine there is a bale chute missing off it .

You are quite right about the missing bale chute. It should fold up into a vertical position for transport, but I seem to remember the two sides hinged forward. Its a long time ago, my Dad used to bale with one, which I think got sold or scrapped in the late 60's. Showing my age now, he used to pull it with a 950, purchased new in about 1960/61. the bales fell mostly out of the way for the next time round. I also remember a bale sledge that was manned, the slave used to stack a pile of 6 or 8 then lever them off the sledge, and hope they stayed upright.
Hope this is of interest to you

I like the VW Camper van, not exactly digger machinery but they look great anyway.
