Sam, this is the company.
https://www.argos.co/usa/about-us/context

I'm friends with the guy that owns the company. They don't do residential work but a but he offered to help me out on this. The head guy on the job said they prefer Argos and purchase about $1M a month in concrete from them.

Here is the company that finished the concrete.

You should have seen how nervous I was that morning. It has done nothing but rain here and the ground is so soft and saturated with water I was afraid that my forms were going to push out. They poured about 1/2 of the turndown first all the way around and then went back and to completed the pour with the laser level.

Your shop looks great. Gambrel roof can look real bad if the proportions aren't done right. Yours looks real good.

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.
