    I alway enjoy your content. I must say though. What i really love about your channel is that i remember in a video of your son eating spaghetti, i just love how your wife said, " don't forget to pray ". That right there is why im a loyal subscriber because it tells the world that doesn't want to hear it, that your a Christian, and your not afraid to take a stand in this sinful world we live in. Your an inspiration to me and i pray im an inspiration to anyone i come in contact with. Im 29yrs old, blind in one eye from premature birth, 5 months premature. And id never change anything about my vision. Yes i can never get my driver's license to drive a car on the highway, but i always manage to figure out a way. God bless you and prayers from the ebie family.

    We have had our! 1840 MF baler a little over a year and the plunger started to clunk on the return stroke... Pulled the plunger and the two lower bearings on the lower side of the plunger closest to the front, one was missing the balls and the other was close... and the bale counter was showing about 52.000, We cross referenced the bearings and the J.D dealer had some that went on the Thresher Bars in an AMADAS peanut combine, I think the New Holland it replaced was close to 500,000 bales, went we pulled the plunger for the same reason

    This is the one I have been waiting for to get your opinion on the Massey Ferguson 1840, I'm pretty happy with mine this coming summer will be my 3rd year using it.
    Just need to get my new tie grapple set up to use on 2 different tractors, and I plan to by the quick hitch set up for my hay wagons should save on the knees getting in and out as much , the closer I get to 60 I will take all I can get on the in and out of the cab less .😉

    On Facebook I’m on a page called the hay patch and the really big hay producers swear by those Masseys. New hollands used to be the thing but these days if you’re a big producer you’ve got a Massey inline. Personally I’ve never ran one but they seem like really nice machines. The new Massey round balers are frickin sweet too. Anyway I hope yours has been treating good still. Hope the family has been good too! Getting spoiled with all these new videos 😂

      My dad buys a lot of it. We use it on jobs to cover bare ground after seeding.

Some people use them as decoration in the fall and some people use them to bed their dogs in the winter time.
