Made 830 bales from about 20 acres. 5 1/3 loads, after I had my brother's wagon loaded about 1/3 way and it became a self-unloading wagon because it wasn't secured down good enough. That was ok though as we needed the wagon space and it's easier to pick up 50 bales from one pile in the field instead of in several windrows.
He just built it this year and it was the first time we used it for hay. I was just putting the 2nd bale up on the 6th layer and I felt it going. No back so it just slid right off Couldn't do much but hold on to something at that point... Brought it home, bolted it down and went back at it. His wagon is the one on the far left in the picture. Home built running gear he got from the junk yard for $100. The rest he got for free or we had it laying around.
