Thats one sweet looking 682, only wish I could get on a garden tractor. Being in a chair I'm stuck with the lawn tractor style, being lower, more level with the chair. So I guess I'll have to do what I can with the 1330, 1110, 1610 and parts tractor, 1720. But boy those ribs up front and terra's out back sure look nice.

Thanks Diz and Zippy.....:beerchug:



Zippy, you just need to find the right guy to fab you up some mod's for one. Good imagination and planning will get you anywhere you want to go :biggrin2.gif:

Great pic, Jay! :ThumbsUp:

Seeing that #2 cart took me back for moment to my childhood. Dad had one of those and used to load my brother, sister and I up and we were all over the place in that thing. He made a stake frame out of 1x that slid in the rectangular mounts. Looked like a little farm wagon.

Thanks for sharing, that was a nice surprise this morning.

The guy I bought the cart from had a simular stary about this one. he said he remembered growing up and his grandfather pulling him around the orchard in it. Really a shame that he sold it, but at least someone got it that will restore it and take it to shows. It won't go back to work.

No for my "What did you do with your cub cadet" story of the day. I took my 782 that is in pieces to work with me yesterday and put it in the oven to strip the paint off. Hopefully today I can get it soaking in hydrochloric acid and finsih stripping it. I should have it at the powdercoaters by the end of the week.

Nice camarokidz28!!
 

Glad to see the cubs getting a good home for the winter:beerchug:. Today I got my #1 tiller and the ups guy showed up with my choke cable bracket and clip for my Original(cable was zip tied to oil air filter!) so I installed that. Then I reinstalled the light switch on the 71 which I worked on yesterday to see if it would work and wala:biggrin2.gif:. So needless to say it's been a great day:buttrock:

Nice new area for the Cubs :ThumbsUp:
Cool seeing the Monster blade again, Haven't seen it for a while :biggrin2.gif:

Nice looking cub shed, Denny! :beerchug:

Looks like you've been busy with the cubs, Sminkey. :ThumbsUp:

Yikes, that's pretty low-time for oil consumption to start...:Sad:

Well I took the engine out of the 1110 for a simple oil pan gasket change. It leaked ever since I bought it last spring. It sits in the shop and hasn't done anything, but it's one of those things that just eats on a person, till finally we fix it. And seeing the motor was out I am now doing a valve job and sanding down the motor for a face lift:bigthink: Knot head can't leave anything alone!
There has to be some hormone in us guys that we can't just do what we intended when we start a project. And here I'm messing with this other stuff and still haven't gotten the right rear wheel off yet (rusted tight)so I can finish the sand blasting and painting. (Rambiling on, sorry)

Got my "used" RF Houtz $47.00 hitch plate installed on my 1810 (thing looks new except for some dirt) and my 11 year old got the fluids warmed up by driving it around the back yard for a bit.

Chris

a few things
 

Did a little welding on the cc36 blower shell and auger too. Installed the mounting bracket/gearbox for cc36 on the 71. Since I fixed the light switch I replaced both headlights and polished up the rings too. Will rebuild carb and replace fuel tank/sediment bowl this weekend with tank off my O. I have a very small leak on the 71 and want to have it running as good as possible for the snow:beer2:

Looking good Sminkey :ThumbsUp:

I love the look of the front ends on those 71's...

Had some fun with the 105
 

I cut down a row of 6 evergreen trees 15 ft tall.To make room for new garden next year. Haulin brush.

Great pics, guys! :ThumbsUp:

Nice load on the trailer :biggrin2.gif:
Beautiful area you have there :ThumbsUp:

I didn't do this today but I did take the pics today.

I did a quick spray bomb paint job on the K301 and got it back in the 126.

http://i934.photobucket.com/albums/a...9-17-10003.jpg

I also removed the mailbox letters someone had used on the hood. The black stripes are painted on. I may try to get some decals for it.

http://i934.photobucket.com/albums/a...9-17-10002.jpg

The seat pan was rusted and cracked so I sandblasted it and welded some pieces on to reinforce it. I welded on carriage bolts so there are studs on the bottom to attach it to the springs. It needs painted and recovered.

Nice work on the 126 :ThumbsUp:

Looking good!
 

Those hoods look cool too! Was wondering about the washer down there against the wheelbearing.

Nice work as always, Adam! :beerchug:

It was on there when I got it. The wheel is messed up and the outer bearing is working its way toward the inner bearing. I guess the washer is there to take up some of the slop between the bearing and big washer that holds the wheel on.

Yeah, I am the one who put that on there. :blush::biggrin2.gif:

Good job Adam! It looks great! :ThumbsUp:

Lawn swept the yard today. Hooked up my hitch to the Brinly adapter, so I can use my attachments and not have to remove it.

Got my electrolysis bucket ready & gonna do the nose on Sunday,

Nik,

Nice Allen! Starting in on leaves already? Up here in northern VT it was 39 degrees last night:biggrin2.gif:. Won't be long before the snow is falling, which I love!!

Hey Nik, would love to see some pics of your electro process and how the nose turns out, please!

Well I spent a few hours today getting the auger ready for primer and paint. Have to prep it a little more, but you can see in before and after pics that this auger needed some TLC:beerchug:

ACecil
Neat set up on the sleeve hitch.
You have really been giving the 100 a workout the past few weeks :biggrin2.gif:

Sminkey
Nice work on the auger

I got a little seat time today as well. I did community service work today. I expanded my neighbors garden. I'm not sure why he told me he didn't want his whole backyard as a garden for.:bigthink: He was very impressed with the cub. He has a 1730 and used to have a 1650 but he just mowed with his 1650.

Got done and got my other neighbor saw what I was doing and wants his garden plowed as well! I haven't done his yet but life is hard all this plowing and no one to share the fun with.

When these picture's were snapped I was finishing up squaring the ends up. I just glad my wife took some pictures of me and the cub and not the kids.

All day
 

Well, Got started moving the load of top spil. Then cut and hauled firewood. Cub lights at night.

Thanks guys! :beerchug:

Looks like everyone had a good cub weekend! :ThumbsUp:

I miss the duals..................:biggrin2.gif:

Looks like you had a good time. Leaf season is coming way too fast up here...

Well here's the ammo i'm using;

Arm & Hammer soap,
Finish remover, (lethal & some bad stuff) about $ 7.69.
2-3/16 S.S. plate,
gloves,
cheapie brush's,
Saftey glass's,
Self etching primer,
Battery charger,
pint mason jar for that lethal stuff to brush on,

http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/b...ectrolysis.jpg

There is no way i'm gonna get in there to even try to scrape & sand the backside of the nose on my # 109.
Don't want to get into sandblasting, so i'll try this?
That Tal Strip I bought at a local auto parts store is LETHAL stuff & potent. I was warned by the counter guy about using it. He told me wear glass's, rubber gloves & a long sleve shirt. Which i'm doing.

1 tbl. of soap to 1 gal of water,
3/16 S.S. plate bolted together to make it easier to attach my positive lead from the battery charger,
Rubbermaid rubber bin which i'm using to use as my cooker,
Slop the entire nose with that stripper & let it set up till I see it's doing it's job,
drop itin the tub & add water to cover,
attach the negative lead to the nose & the S.S. plate to the positive lead,
Plug in the charger & hope it does'nt blow up? :Explode:

I brushed some of that brew on part of the nose & wow, it like removed the finish NOW.

Gonna take some pic's after the fact & see how it works? My 1st. attempt.
I'm setting up my camera to video mode & try the You Tube thing?

The movie may take a bit cause i'n not to computer literate. We'll see?

Nik,

Thanks Jay! The duals will be going back on. I'm enjoying the look the 100 has for now. :ThumbsUp:

nikster (and everyone, for that matter)-

DO NOT USE STAINLESS STEEL FOR ELECTROLYSIS RUST REMOVAL!

When used as an electrode, the SS will create dangerous, very poisonous and carcinogenic chromium compounds that you cannot legally or safely dispose of. You don't want to contaminate your ground water and get in trouble with the EPA. Use ordinary steel only.

Picked up a brinly 3pt plow for next to nothing for my super diesel. It came with this jc penny tractor that is a hydro with shaft drive and shaft driven deck. Think I'll just sell that.

Nice plow, Adrian! :beerchug:

Primer
 

Primed the auger for the cc36 and got a seized set screw out of the pto:beer2:.

aagitch
Nice plow :ThumbsUp:
It's going to look good behind the diesel.


Sminkey
Looking better everyday :beerchug:

Great job, Jude! :beerchug:
