I'm looking for a round bale spear to attach to a tractor 3 pt hitch. The whole implemen - not just the spear itself.
Anyone have or know of one available?

If you can weld you can make one pretty easy. I’d go to the farm and get you some dimensions if you want.

Thanks kid. I weld a little but I want to be able to trust the joints.
I have a friends spear as a template if I go the fab route.
I think I’ve located one at a tolerable price.
Was hoping someone would have one not in use or a neighbor with one.

Welding one is easy
if you happen to be this way you can pick this one up.
Spencer is here, but pretty pricey to drop it on AK Air this weekend
Hope it works out.
Have welded a few down here.

And all these years I though the ironbender handle was because you worked with steel. Can barely weld, so disappointed

Paul- ironBENDER, not ironWELDER!
I can stick things together, gas and arc, but would not call myself a welder.

Next thing you know you'll admit to drinking fruit flavored beer Last time I borrowed my buddies tractor one of the draft links had been misplaced. Needing to run the box blade and not having time to wait to figure out where the part had been misplaced I made do. Now if a desk jockey can bang out a temporary replacement part...

But this is a spear...
Can you imagine his despair should his spear suffer from E D?

You know, you don't have to 'be a welder' to weld stuff. If I'm wrong, I'm sure glad no one told me before I stuck a few pieces of tube together 30 years ago in order to drag a couple old farm tractors and assorted implements to another location 500 miles away. It even worked. And that was the first of perhaps a dozen trailers I've welded, among a variety of other stuff. I'm still not a welder, but I'm having fun learning, and it's kind of satisfying to be jerking stuff around the wide open spaces of Alaska with some confidence. I'll bet you might surprise yourself too, Mike.

Got one right here I'm not using at this time. Loving an open, mild December. Haven't had to feed anything except the kids' 4H calves.
