Yesterday, I tried out my new baler on about 3 1/2 acres. Put the 46 bales in the barn, and got to cleaning on the baler, pulling the hay out, and blowing it out with the leaf blower. Now, it has absolutely no hay inside, and is just about ready for storage.




Now, you might ask what this has to do with Cubs...Well, tonight I sold the 46 bales to my Amish neighbors/buddies, for $5 a bale. Now, the surprise is...That $230 is going toward a very straight Original that my dealership has!!







Here's some pictures of the baler, and of the hay drying in their barn. They are all spread out with some salt on each to help draw the moisture. (We had to bale wet due to unexpected coming rain.)

I changed the oil, filter, air filter and gas filter on my 1872. While I was at it added some plumbing to the oil drain. Now I can drain directly into a container and not all over the frame. If I have trouble removing the mule drive, I'll replace the 4" nipple with a close thread nipple and a 45. It's a work in progress, but it's a start.

Nice work! The supers are great tractors. I really enjoy my 1872!

Just got back with my new Original! Really straight, with no cracks! My buddy at the dealer said it was a barn find, and ran when parked years ago.




Looks to be a late December 1962 model..With a serial of 490... I can't remember the rest. :biggrin2:
