I work for a General Contractor in the DC area, been with this company 7 years now. I am also in training for the Sheriffs reserve program.

I love my PS3 and big tv. Growing up I did a bunch of hunting, fishing and crabbing.... Now I do not have the places to go hunting, time to go fishing, and I sold my crab boat.

I've built up a few trucks for four wheeling, a few old cars 71 Chevelle that I sold and an old 55 Plymouth.

Recently Married, 6 months friday. Bought my first house last year and moved from Southern MD to WV. Still new to the area and learning my way around. I hoping to find some hiking trails and camping places.

Lets see...been a dispatcher for a trucking company in Eastern Ontario that runs long haul into Eastern USA with FTL & LTL weekly. We run 18 trucks in the USA, so I am responsible for getting them home to Ontario/Quebec each day. This has been my agrivating job for the last 10-1/2 years. Can't complain, it takes me 3 minutes to get to work ... IF I stop for the two stop signs! Pretty good money so close to home. If I could find a better job that paid the same - I'd be gone in a heart beat!

I am a furniture maker by trade, been doing that since I was 14...learnt it from my father...wish I could make a living doing this. Talk about relaxing compared to being on the phone for 10 hours a day! Would love to walk across my lawn to go to work making furniture.

Into ATVing, used to snowmobile a lot too, but don't get enough snow anymore to warrent the money spent to keep a sled around. Love to be outside taking care of my garden, flower beds and lawn. Enjoy cutting fire wood with no one around to bug me, just me, the dog, and a coffee on a frosty fall morning!

New to Cubbing....bought my first one in October of 2009 and love it. Would love to grab a couple more but I don't think I am ready for a divorce just yet! Been married for almost 8 years now, two step kids, dog and a cat. FULL HOUSE! :biggrin2.gif:

I'm a farm boy from MA. I live on a small farm and help with the equipment and raise dairy goats. I make maple syrup. I am a member of 4-H. I have my own woodshop and like making just about anything out of wood. I have a small buisness splitting and selling firewood. This helps pay for the tractors. I ride quads mostly on my farm and my grandpas wood lot. And collect cub cadets. And somehow manage to go to school and get good grades.

I work for an Excavating/General contractor.

I'm working on a large Mall re-development right now. Just about the only private job in the area.




I'm also a gearhead and have been into cars all my life. Manly a chevy guy but I've had some type of turbo Buick Grand National for almost the last 20 years now and just picked up an orig 33K mile 1964 Skylark last year.

I took a break from the cars (money pits) and started collecting WW2 firearms. I think I'm burnt out on that now so I'll be getting my turbo car out and should be running this summer. It has sat for 5 years and the other one hasn't seen the road in over 10 years.

I work on semi trucks as a mechanic for our family trucking co. I also have a 100 acre farm that I grow wheat, corn, and raise horses. In winter I do small handyman side jobs and redo old tractors as well as cubs. Probably why it takes me so long to finish everything I start lol, too many irons in fire. Here is a pic of the Allis Chambers 7060 my brother and I just finished 2 days ago. Tthis is what it looked like before we started, haven't got a pic of it finished but will try to upload it tomorrow

I started out drafting/designing in-line scales for the railroad. Played the role reversal with my wife and wound up raising my 2 kids for the past 21 yrs. Fishing is my blood, along with tinkering in the garage. I only have 1 Cub. And it seems to have been the oddball that IH built. So I read as much as I can on this site to see what her brothers and sisters have become. She's very lonely and would love to hear from her siblings. (just kidding) Always room for levity. Not much else to do in suburbia. I do home remodeling on the side when it's available. So there's time in garage but not much to do.

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.
