My lawyer is still working on finalizing patents. Once they are done I will be able to show it off. About another month. Then I would love for you to come check it out.

I could mount it on my golf cart. That is a great idea. Then I can show how little stress there is on the trailer. And it would be less space at trade shows.

Greetings. Have you made any progress with the bale loader? Is it ready to be demonstrated? I live near you and am Placerville often and would like to see it.

Sounds real similar to the "Bale Buddy" already on the market or did you design that too.
The bale buddy has to arms that holds a Square Bale and you hand crank it to the hay rack. It attaches to your trailer for loading and then detaches when you are done.
Has anyone else heard of this? I have one in my shop. I would post pictures if I could figure out how.

The hay lift has been put on hold temporarily as we are finalizing our automatic hay flake feeder. these will be on the market in February. Then we will go back to the hay lift.I believe mid summer the lift will be ready for market. We did some re-design and made the lift bomb proof and are also working on a clamshell rack to keep it dry.

You do realize ForDub's postings were 9 years ago...these products tend to be highly niche in nature and the companies tend NOT to last...
