What’s your opinion on the bottom mirror
I hope you don't consider me rude for butting in but I think it's as useful as an ashtray on a Honda 50

They are very big mirrors, seem to have to watch them a bit in sheds, found the bottom mirror handy when working tight to a girder in a shed tho, u can see how close ur tyre is to the girder, but on the road/field I see no advantage.What’s your opinion on the bottom mirror

There use is very limited . There shape is wrong would be a nice mirror if they’d show back along a trailer when turned past the view of the main mirror. I like the big mirror better spread of a view . But have to be careful with them .They are very big mirrors, seem to have to watch them a bit in sheds, found the bottom mirror handy when working tight to a girder in a shed tho, u can see how close ur tyre is to the girder, but on the road/field I see no advantage.
Have u drove any other makes of tractorS to see what their double mirrors were like, I was in a 6130R and I thought the mirrors were better than the Massey.Your spot on .

I saw one of these today on a lorry with a buckrake on it. It is owned by the same crowd that owns this https://www.agriland.ie/farming-news/giant-self-propelled-keenan-feeder-lands-in-co-donegal/ I think it was originally bought to spread digestate through forestry ground.
Can't see how that could compact a pit when it's designed to stay on top of snow.

Maize probably, grass would be more likely to hold air pockets..https://www.pistenbully.com/usa/en/vehicles/greentech/silage.htmlI know it's different, but think of compacting stone with a digger. There's a slight vibration in the motion of a track, it shakes the stone a bit as you track across it, even if the weight is spread well.
Just wondering would the same principle apply to a pit

Moved a 145 Deere with the double mirror bottom mirror was a square shape and not as curved as the Massey. Better style by a mile . I see the new series Massey look to have the fendt mirrors on them .Have u drove any other makes of tractorS to see what their double mirrors were like, I was in a 6130R and I thought the mirrors were better than the Massey.

Phelim used do for a lad beside me a few yrs ago.different rigs since.havent heard of him doing anyone in ballinamore since.mcgerty far side of carrigallen has one and a new krone went from wilsons up to gortlettra to a dairyman with robots in there in may.donohoes up at legga have a malone
Would there be anybody up your neck of the woods running fusion balers?
To be honest id say without much doubt ya could count all fusions in leitrim on one hand.know a dairy man at swanlinbar has one about 2 mile or so from " mick the tyre man " on donedeal.more around killeshandra.
Neighbour of mine worked for mchales til he went to pottinger 14 months ago seen the pottinger impress working 2 yr ago or so and knew mchales had some serious competition up against them...tbh alot of farmers wouldnt have much along with 150 bales or that and dampish ground.ground just wouldnt suit them as such
Pottinger will never even make a dent in mchales baler sales
I wouldn't say I'm a mchale fan while I'm fond of the new one I wouldn't say its the be all and end all.I don't suppose that Pottinger will , but
Who would have said 25 odd years ago , that a company from the Wesht of Ireland making silage block cutters , would outsell all other makes of balers put together , and it would be with a machine that baled a bale of silage , and applied the wrap to the bale , using 1 tractor and 1 operator.
You yourself , @johndeere6920s were anti McHale for longer than most .

IMO there is absolutely no point in this country buying anything else because of backup dealer positioning and resale value.
Last one I drew from was a 2205.
I met a New Holland SP , on the Birr -Roscrea Road about 3 weeks ago . I think O Briens are the crowd own it ? I wouldnt have seen a NH around here for 20 plus years , and like yourself, it would have been either a 1905/2205 era. Either JD or Class now.
Thats a kildare outfit.
