I was at Little Falls, MN farm show last weekend displaying my collection of bale hooks. I met a guy that said he had an odd bale hook and he heard it may possibly be an after market hook for the Roto Baler round bale. He wanted me to have it in my collection, so I picked it up this week and took some pictures of it. Has anyone else seen this style of bale hook or have any information as to if it was used for the round bales?      ------------- 34 WC #477, 38 B #1935, 1-116 on steel, #8 7ft dbl action disc, #9 5ft dbl action disc, 295 Chainsaw |

| I have baled and picked up thousands of round bales and never seen anything like it. Sure glad I never found 1 in a rear tractor tire. I have a huge book just on AC round balers, you have peaked my interest, will ck it out and see if AC has anything like it in that book. |
