What did you do to your Cub today?

I mowed and then gave the 1211 a much needed bath.

Adjusted valves on my 1650, worked on hydro linkage on my 1450
Then cut grass with it
Over all a productive day!

shoulda posted yesterday as I finally got to hear the 1200;s engine run for the 1st time since I acquired this machine about 9 months ago....

today I stripped a 392 LT deck down to the bare shell and started building it back up as a 44c. wire brushed all the loose flakey rust off of it, welded washers on the wallowed front deck roller mounts, and the front hanger bracket that was pirated from a crusty old long departed 44a.
I should have used the front gussets/roller mount from the 44a, as using the existing original ones from the 392 has the hanger bracket off center from the gussets.... but it all fit together and will work... this is not gonna be anything of a show machine, just gotta preserve it and slow the rusting process, as much as possible.
ran out of POR 15 though. had about 1/2 a can and did all the prep steps to save remaining material including duct taping the punched hole in the lid and put it in the garage fridge.... probably lost 1/4-1/3 of a can was a solid glob.... probably lost the active ingredients that were once in the product that I was able to use out of it.....
I JUUUST had enough to stretch so that I could get a coat on the whole underside-barely. usually I do 2-3 coats on the bottom of a deck anyways, so hopefully what I did get use of will at least be a good primer for when I do get more.
I have taken to coating the undersides and also both sides of the reinforcement plate with this stuff, along with the topside area of the shell itself that is covered by the plate, as the area between the shell and plate is a moisture magnet and is the 1st place for them to start rusting.

Finally got a chance to rework the tongue on the back blade that I picked up last year so it works with the hitch on the 1450.

No pics () but both the 2284 and 1864 got a good workout today. Took both to work, standard yard cart on the 1864 and a 6x8 flat trailer on the 2284. Filled the 1864 cart with dirt (and of course, used the blade to push some around) and filled the 6x8 with well over 100 bricks and about a dozen cement gutter runoff's. Always good to hear the girls pulling a load down the road. Then changed the spark plugs in the 2284 (yay for Sunday delivery from Amazon ). Now I'm sitting inside relaxing with a cold

Slobbered some paint on one of the decks under the shade of the tupelo.

Started the trunion repair on the 1650.

My two youngest have been wanting to put a tractor in the parade and throw candy for a couple years now. This year we pulled the trigger on the red one. They had a blast, and already have a goal of one of the 'yellow ones' for next year (and are thinking they each want to drive one...) We will see. But a nice #2 would be a worthy goal as well.

Was great fun.
