Next steps: Build the front axle assembly--basically the front foot of a WF frame with axle. Install hubs and set up for running 23 inch tires. Scale out and start on the main frame--from the dash out to the front wheels. Mostly a 4x6 rectangular tube, 3/16 wall, with a few "bends" which will be more like miters. Main frame length about 6 feet. Grader overall length, 12 feet. Install power steering. Build seat mount and install seat. At that point I'll have a basic vehicle. Blade circle, blade mount and hydraulics follow...lots to do.

Looks good so far! Is this just going to be for show, or do you actually plan on using it?

I hope to be able to actually use it. But to be honest, it's more just for fun. Something to work on, to stretch my fabrication skills.

Not much physical progress on the grader--in parts accumulation mode.
Did receive a box with the power steering gear off a Super. Waiting on front spindles and hubs to be able to assemble the front axle frame and determine front axle height with the larger tires. My local metal fabricator decided he didn't want to deal with retail sales due to being so busy. Placed an order for over $500 of steel from BMG in Richmond, 75 miles away. Supposed to pick up next week. Needed a 10 foot piece of 4x6x3/16 wall rectangular tubing, had to buy the whole 24 foot piece. Same for smaller rectangular tubing. Also ordered partial sheets of 3/16 and 1/4 inch plate steel. Got a plasma cutter a couple weeks ago. Have been playing with that. Mocked up the general shape of the main frame with a piece of plywood. Looks pretty good. Need to replicate with the 4x6 tubing...

A bit of progress. Picked up the steel for the main frame and other parts. Installed hubs on the front axle and 23x8.50-12 tires and wheels. Getting ready to build the main frame. Plan is to miter the 4x6 tubing to match the template shown.
On a side note, picked up a new-to-me South Bend 10" lathe.

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.
