1/3rd scale Case Hay Press

A view of my freshly completed Case hay press in my front yard. The photo following this one gives a explanation of how the hay press operates.
Needless to say the neighbour hood kids need watching when this hay press is under operation, as hands and fingers get made in to bales as easily as hay. Just so you know how much time has passed since I built this 1/3rd Case hay press, my daughter Jennifer who was 8 years old in this photo is now 31 years old and no longer interested in hay balers.

For the record, Jennifer does know her way around a machine shop, as I thaught her how to run the machine tools in my machine shop.
