It’s actually a bloody good idea! Better than the alternatives tbh, will be borrowing that idea next time the need arises!

do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
bale wrap ... much tougher than cling film and 'stickier' .. I use it for wrapping stuff, like you would pallet wrap

I would normally spray a we bit of the oil shutter’n men use to keep concrete sticking to shutter’n pans on the dipper before concrete’n and then it just washes off nicely. But I didn’t want to take the chance of fading the paint on a brand new machine (that isn’t even mine) lol
so I put the old condom on it for protection. Lol

Very nice! I keep half considering a fresher tractor, my tractor is the oldest and highest hour bit of kit I own, but pulls like a train and way over spec for what I need. problem is I’d still want all the bells and whistles on a new one after already having them on current tractor 
keen to hear how you get on with yours

I'm no expert...but is that adequate strapping? Looks like a pair of 5 ton straps...

All the guys who move tractors minus afew decent ones seem to strap this way… baffles me!! Granted it’s only 6.5 ton tractor.

It’s an impressive fleet , well looked after as well . I bet you have no problem selling anything when you’re done with it . How come the wagons not in the picture?
