Well I did it to myself

That’s not bad luck. That’s the divine reminding you being poor and forced to work sux

 

Or it is just karma at work. Possibly the same thing in a round about way.

The Lord works in mysterious ways,

 

I can sympathise, you should go read my new owner thread sometime. Im in the same boat as you lol

 

Just goes back the the saying about buying someone else’s problems. Everyone’s susceptible.

 

I bought a new to me discbine for the farm this spring, and it has been an unmitigated POS ever since I got it home. 1 minor breakdown, and 2 major ones, in less than 15 acres. It’s going away, very far away, very quickly. Looked decent, but wow was that deceiving. I figure my cost in parts alone was right at $100 per acre for how much I’ve used it.

 

I am debating selling my discbine. Have not used it for 5 years. Got rid of cattle. $40k between disc bine, 10 wheel rake, net wrap round baler. Less then 400 round bales. So $100 a bale. Nobody raising cattle. Hay is selling dirt cheap. But if I had cattle I would want a security system, and have shotgun handy.

 

We do a lot of custom hay work & I was looking at upgrading my inline wrapper. Bid on several used ones online. I didn't really want to jump to a new one. Called a dealer last Friday morning to inquire if he had any used ones. We talked about little while & I traded my old one for a new Anderson IFX720. First job is Saturday for a fellow with 100 acres of wheat & triticale.

 

Watch out for tribbles on way to delivery to Sherman planet.
