Great ideas those on re-purposing other things!

Ya I remember when we went to paper qt containers.
I thought it was a joke and they would leak.
And having to use a "church key" to open a can of beer, or the bottle opener on the other end.
Coffee/sardine cans had "keys" so the lids could be opened.
Dial up phones with 6 people on a party line, no fast food choke and pukes,
no Television sets, wringer washing machines, and hand push reel lawnmowers.
older days for sure.

I use one of these - 1/10 hp, 110v utility pump - for oil changes in everything; cars, GT's, boat, PWC, mowers. Rigged up with plastic tubing that fits down the dip stick tube on the suction side. I pump into a graduated container.

Haven't crawled under anything to change oil in ages.

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.
