Yes I could, but I want it to be adjustable like others I have seen. It will allow me to be able to spread it on side walks, large driveways, and my road is on a hill that the town never sands or salts. Lucky if they get to plowing it lol.

Also thank you for the pick BThein that helps.

Motor set up just need to weld 3 slightly rouded pieces of steel to the spreader cap and bam ready to fab up. I hope lol. Need to buy a new potentiometer mine seems to be shot. Motor with th3 spreader on top seem to be ballanced well, doesn't move hardley at all at max rpm. As long as I dont mess up the wings should be good to go.

Welded the wings on and painted it. Hooked it up to battery just to test the balance at full rpm. Works great no wobble and she spins fast, a little to fast. But the potentiometer will fix that. Now to fab the whole thing up.

Well on max it might just throw it that far lol.

And thanks for all the great reviews, Rescue 11 and I have spent a few weeks trying to get this done. I think it will turn out great when it's finished. + it looks like the total cost will be under $50.00 for all of it. That's the part I like, Or I should say my wife likes.

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.
