[QUOTE="Monty, post: 6682469, member: 775"] I found it interesting too and instantly thought of this thread when I saw the knots. They have been pulled tight by the bale now but I'm sure they were neat before. A couple of pics for you. The bottom knot in the first pic is the balers own knot for comparison and I've untwisted it in the second pic. I've no experience with big square bales but on small balers I have seen the string cut a neat slot in the needles slowly over many tens of thousands of bales like a cheesewire which stops joined string from pulling through and causing problems. This was remedied by drilling a hole through the needle on the edge of the eye and knocking a short roll pin in to replace the worn slot and guide the string through. Perhaps you have the same issue with your baler? [ATTACH type="full"]848591[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]848593[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
