    Have you some kind of optical illusion going on there? Or is there a taper in the frame?

    It's not one of those bale carriers I sent you a picture of earlier, you do realise it is actually bigger than it looked in the picture. 😄

    Do you know the make of it? My dad is into his welding and it might be handier than buying him a plasma cutter.

    Seems to be a Burny ?

    A very big storage box for the loader. Can carry spares, tools, twine and extra diesel if required.

    will be doubling up as a counter weight for the tedder aswell

    I know fcuk all about machinery really - but would a weight on the loader like that be mad dangerous on high ground? (We have high ground, that'd be the only part I am familiar with)

    Lads, I broke the tine off a grape/sprong/pike, I borrowed an broke it ;(. Need to fix it for man as well as buy him a new one, it's an antique one, mild steel rod no good I'd say, would a stainless Steele rod for dissimilar welds work, even with a gusset on it, it broke at the right angle.

    Best bet might be to braze it.

    Mig weld it if you can, brazing will put too much heat in to the prong annealing it resulting in it bending the whole time.
    If you cant MIG it then a standard stainless rod 0316 a low hydrogen 7018 or a 29.9 will do but watch the heat build up.................

    Don't for get to Vee it out as well.

    You'll need a portaloo also. Just section off one side and fit a toilet seat on the top of it and a 'drain off valve.' :D

    l know they say you shouldn't **** where you eat but you could make a cool portable charcoal bbq of the other side!!

    whatever you end up with cut out the massey symbol from plate and weld to the front of it so that it's a massey one!
