All-Wood Mini Baler
 ✖  |
"My mind is never asleep. I'm always thinking of something to build," says Warren Farley, who recently sent FARM SHOW photos of his homemade mini baler. It makes 6 by 6 by 12-in. bales and is made almost entirely out of oak wood. A 3-ft. long axe handle compresses straw inside a long wooden box that forms the body of the baler. Each bale is hand tied with orange baler twine.
"It's modeled after old-time stationary balers," says Farley. "I've had requests for plans from all over the world and have sent plans to South Africa, Germany, Switzerland, Australia, Japan and all over the U.S. at no charge. I sell the bales locally for $2 apiece. It takes about 3 min. to make a bale.
"I spent about $100 for the materials and used masonry screws to fasten components together."
