I've seen that machine before. Seems like it was made by some resourceful inventor and he tried to sell the idea to A-C, but A-C wasn't interested.

I believe this baler was built in Nebraska. If I remember the story right a local shop built a few and A-C gave them a few balers to to it in case they decided to mass produce them. It has a WC drive train and the transmission actually runs the baler, the pto runs a Dodge transmission and rear end. There are two clutch pedals. One for the ground drive and one for the entire machine giving it live power. It is a slick little outfit. I have seen pictures of another one that has a CA for a power unit. Not sure how that one runs.

There is one in a shed of the same concept on a WD tractor frame. Has larger drive wheels (truck tires if I remember correctly) and the pickup is a square baler version. Said it worked great but the dust and dirt was horrible and "needed a window panel" between the operator and baler. Very professional job.....Dale |
