I appreciate that Sminkey, I am hoping to get it insulated this coming year. I really need to get mine cleaned up again. I have been doing some shotgun bluing and work and it's amazing how you can mess up a shop just doing something that small. I also have got to make room for the 169 that will be coming soon. I think the TV will have to go, that will make a nice spot to put it in. I can sacrifice a TV for a 169 LOL. Your's looks nice a cozy in there. Alot of cool attachments too.

Default Thanks Guys!!

Hopefully will need to make room for a 147 in a couple weeks:biggrin2.gif:. I've got a propane wall furnace, newer digital one that I turn on a couple hours before I want to go out and work. It's 32 degrees here but got the shop up to 64 before I shut it down for the night.

Only the 2nd video I've recorded with new camera, When I was recording it I thought to myself, this might be cheesey, but after watching it I thought it was ok. Thanks again

Great looking shops guys!
I'm envious of the Cub presence there!

My 104 is just parked in my shop to keep it out of the weather until I build it it's own little house. Because I make my living outta my shop, I can't afford the floor space for just parking it.

Here's a couple of the blacksmith side of the shop - I've also got a woodworking shop on the other side.

Thanks guys!

Yama - Actually, I'm "faking it" in that shot - A lot of the shows I do require that you provide visual proof that you truly make your product so I heated up a piece of square stock and put it under the power hammer to "prove" that I make my own work!

Sminkey - Hey, if you're interested go to iforgeiron.com to check out what it would take to get into blacksmithing - you'd be surprised how easy (and cheap) it is to make your own forge and tools to get started - I've been making my living doing blacksmithing and woodworking for about 12 years now and except for my power hammer, vise and anvil almost all of my tooling is self made.

I can't tell you guys how thrilled I am to finally have a good, working Cub Cadet! My only problem is that the weather here has been terrible since I bought it and because most of my property is a severe slope, I just can't get out and put her through her paces! I'll have to satisfy myself with fabbing up a hitch and blade and other odds and end for it during the Winter.

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.
