V-Rake Built On Old Haybine Frame

V-Rake Built On Old Haybine Frame HOG EQUIPMENT & IDEAS Tennessee farmer Rich Wilson says the V-rake he built on the frame of an old busted up haybine works just as well as a new rake “Best of all I don’t have a lot of cash invested ” Wilson adds Wilson first removed the feeding platform reel and drum from the old haybine He cut the swing hitch apart and used the pieces to build a stationary hitch mounted at the center of the frame He says the rectangular tube steel made a real sturdy hitch so he could mount one wheel rake assembly on each side supported by the tongue and the axle of the old haybine dolly “I used an old 3-pt model rake that I had in the weeds and bought another one real cheap The only parts I had to buy were 10 bolts with nuts and 10 ft of flat bar to weld the lift arms and end links that mount the rakes to the dolly ” Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Lincoln Wilson 110 Co Rd 672 Athens Tenn 37303 ph 423 506-6466; richwilson9683@gmail com
