    Slatted cattle shed

    Cordless drench gun ?

    Have wondered about wearing it round my neck, or attached to the back pack. but wouldn't be handy when filling the race. What I'm planning on doing is as you say, hang it from a bungee. About 2000 maybe.

    Straight forward light bar guidance.

    Ritchie traileyre

    8. Seems to manage OK so far. We make 5ft bales of silage and it copes. Haven't noticed any waste but we spike them on to the wrapper anyway.

    Ritchie traileyre

    We have one and I like it. Better than using a trailer even a big one unless it's a very long lead. Much quicker than bale lifters. I think keltec would be better, but the trailyre was a lot cheaper.

    Plastic wrap versus net wrap

    Krone do, and I think kuhn do aswell. I like their way of using 2 standard rolls of wrap rather than nrf.
