Looks like you got it! What is the truck?

Those are some large bales...

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

Firstly, love to see a working Big Bolt! As hay farmers ourselves, that's a bonus, too. wink

That's a great idea. I didn't realize it would reduce the size. Some cell cameras (ours included) take huge images. I have to edit them in the phone in order to even share them with friends. That's not very easy. I have emailed screenshots to myself in order to manipulate them so I can use Attachment Manager.

(We may need to include some of this to go with tips on adding images. thumbs_up )

What you western states are calling hay looks like straw to us in Michigan. Our hay is green and soft, even if it is not alfalfa. Of course, cattle will eat pretty much anything so fatten 'em up and truck them to market!

I try to crop them to clean them up and that makes them to large . So it was suggested that I email them to myself and when I do that I’m able to resize them again
