Yes, little known facts about Mr. Hendrix. Not only was he in the 101st Airborne, but also an avid Cub Cadet fan.

Yup! Great musicians need great machines to take care of their homes.

As for my reverse weights, I like how useful weights are, but I prefer the look of the wheel as is. this way I get the best of both worlds- good looks and enough weight to move in slippery situations.

now that the light at the end of the tunnel is visible, I'm very excited! it often felt like this project would never end, I would usually only be able to work in 10-15 minute increments (one of the reason the shed is such a mess!) before my assistance was needed elsewhere. but now the increments are longer, and parts are being put back rather than removed, so the excitement builds each time! I'll do my best to upload pics as I progress.

Default Decals

I took advantage of some warm weather today to put my new decals from Maple Hunter on. I temporarily mocked up the complete tractor for some shots of how they look. I didn't line them up absolutely perfect, but they look pretty decent to me!

Looking good! I don't think I've ever seen side marker lights on a Cub. Your idea or a POs addition?

they were my idea to fill in a PO's hole. we had some extra trailer lights at the shop I was working at, so I enlarged the hole a bit and popped them in. they're LEDs too, so they're nice and bright!

That looks great

Do you want the OD of the spacers scuffed ( sanded on the lathe ) to help the paint stick?

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.
