Fenced-In Wagons For Hayrides

Fenced-In Wagons For Hayrides AG WORLD 27-6-24 Several years ago, Robert Luther, Richfield, Ohio, built four bale kicker wagons for catching small square bales while baling hay. He used cyclone fencing for the sides. Luther also grows pumpkins and conducts hayrides in the fall for school and church groups. By putting bows across the top of the wagons, and stretching a custom made canvas over the bows, he created what he calls the ultimate hayride wagon. He put steps in front of the doors on one side of each wagon. "The steps are mounted to the wagon with a hinge at the top, so they fold up in front of the door when we're using them for hayrides. "These wagons, with cyclone fence siding and tarps on the top, are safer for the riders than wagons with no sides. With the fence, people can't fall or jump from the wagon. I've had a lot of rambunctious people over the years try to pull the hay from the bales and throw it off. That's hard to do with the chain link fencing for sides," he says.
