I can't wait to see the future Cub parts you make.

You must have been a good boy this year, no doubt about it.
Are you going to restore/rebuild it, or is it ready to run as is? I wish I had the skill to run something like that. They're out there and available as folks update to Haas, and other CNC mills. Now to make some parts! John

John, my plan is to clean it thoroughly, sand the rough spots a little and then give it a coat of machinery gray using a small foam roller meant for cabinets. They really do a nice job and no brush marks. Of course I'll have to use a brush in the tight spots, but I have found using a 1/2" wide artist's brush works very well. The artist brush bristles are so fine you can smooth the paint out nice. The previous owner went totally through the entire mill two years ago, doing upgrades and replacing worn parts so it's ready to use. Since it's overhaul, it's probably only been used maybe 20 hours.
I'm not a skilled machinist by any means. I have run a mill a little bit. I thought about taking a couple courses at the local vocational school. The have some night classes geared to old fogeys like me.

Great purchase Stand! Don't spend money on a Rotary phase converter or a static phase converter, you just need a variable frequency drive, I use a Teco FM50 2hp VFD to power my Millrite milling and my Logan Lathe ($167)

That is sweet Doc! I want one too.
+1 on what Gilles said. If you are using a 3 phase only VFD and applying single phase to it you need to derate the VFD. The easiest way to do that is multiply your motor FLA by 1.73 and make sure your VFD can output the calculated amps.

Started down the clean and paint road. I'm doing one section at a time, cleaning thoroughly with lacquer thinner then some light sanding to blend the chipped paint. The Rustoleum Smoke Gray Gloss is going on well and since I'm using a very fine artist's brush, there are very few brush marks. The red is also Rustoleum - Safety Red.

That's part of the long term plan along with power feed for the X and Y axis.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
