This has probably been asked before, but is the standard sheaf fork a three tine hay fork? The local Farm & fleet sells them & I thought I could save a few bucks & get started. Thanks- John |

Well, I found a thread on the main forum that answered my first question. Thanks anyway- I'll probably have questions on the bag, though. |

I stuffed 20lbs of sissal bailing twine into a burlap sack I got for free from a local coffee shop. That seems to work pretty well.

If you need to go cheap as I seem to always have to... you can make a sheaf from a bag of mulch and burlap from either Lowes or a gardening center. They use burlap around rose bushes a lot. A tree farm could help you as well for the burlap. The mulch dries out but it's cheap and easy to re-pack. I hate sheaf. Bet you can tell from that what my worst event is. Edited by Sleeping Dragon |
