    Very cool! A non-stop version would be again as stunning! I used to custom round bale and felt like the big square balers really had an edge on acres per hour. Stopping to secure and eject a round bale is a noticeable delay and time consuming.

    That's a great concept. From a futuristic perspective, it's pretty freaking cool. Id like to take a closer look at one personally just because my curiosity is getting the better of me. I don't know that it's the most practical choice, unless you are covering serious acreage. I think that if you could make a self propelled big square baler that you would really have something. You still have to stop every bale with a round baler, where as you could keep on trucking with a big square baler.

  • @SirFloofy001

    I thought the whole purpose of having tractors separate from machinery was so you can have a handful of tractors to power a large number of farm machinery instead of having every piece of equipment have its own engine and drive train and all the extra maintenance that comes with it. What you've done is made a self propelled machine that can only do one thing and when its not doing that one thing its just a very expensive hunk of metal sitting around doing nothing but taking up time and money for you to maintain it. not only that but this would increase the number of vehicles you need to complete the job. You would need this plus a tractor to pickup the bales instead of just having a single tractor with a bale spear in the front and a baler in back.

      DO IT NOW! Agreed something like a baler sits way too much of the year to make it cost effective to be self propelled. Unless you do like 10,000+ bales a year, and at that point why not just buy two conventional round balers and be able to do twice as much baling for probably still less money.....

I mean maybe this will be the first you never now it's crazy to think that there was probably someone who made these exact arguments about a self-propelled combine chopper or sprayer

    @chevyon37s 7 років тому +21

    Thinking from an economical stand point, how is this self propelled baler feasible for the guys who don't make 10,000+ round bales a year? It's another engine, transmission, and machine to have around that costs much more than just having a round baler and tractor and this only does one job. That's the beauty of a tractor you can unhook it from a baler and use it to do many other jobs and the cost of use is much lower. Not to mention I see round bales being obsolete in the coming years in lieu of large square bales

    • @chevyon37s
      @chevyon37s 7 років тому +3

      BIlly the SMall Bong thorton from india we absolutely won't be buying one. It's a single use machine that would sit unused 7-8 months a year and just as expensive as and tractor and baler combo yet you can use a tractor gear round and for many other tasks. Plus the Deere 4 and 569 balers make a better bale than I've seen any Vermeer baler make.

    • @FarmerDavid
      @FarmerDavid 7 років тому +1

      I keep an eye on the pickup constantly, you generally see when its gonna block up then you ease up forward speed. This saves time getting out unblocking it after you've rammed material in the machine because you "cant see it". I agree on the last past tho, same with self propelled sprayers in my personal opinion

    OK idea, but for me I would like to be able to see the pickup reel, the faster you bale, the less time you have to react if things go tits up. I would rather have the pickup on the front like other self propelled machines. Also, wouldn't it be better if the steering was on the rear? The way them tiny wheels were wobbling wouldn't instill any confidence in me, might be OK on a nice tarmac road, but, on some of the country roads we have here in the UK I think it would be a real handful.
