Thanks. I appreciate the encouragement, but doubt I’ll go that route unless somebody with knowledge of trademark laws could convince me that selling them won’t bring the wrath of Case-IH down on me. Maybe I could offer them as giveaway incentives, maybe for a certain dollar value donation to OCC?

You would have to sell a lot more than you can make for Case/IH to even notice you. I am thinking way in the thousands.

You did a very nice job! Hey, if you ever decide to make a run of them, put me on the list of "might be interested if the price is right" folks". Wonder if it would be more worth your time to just print them and let the end user take care of trimming and painting? I'm certain that's where the real labor would be.

Great work Smittyizer! If you don't want to make money out of this, I know some people here who may be interested in your STL files.

The cost can be very affordable since there is good 3D printer sold in kit today but the skill need to drew it up with SolidWorks is not something you can get at the store. A good alternative method is using a 3D scanner to duplicate the part you want to print, some printer got one integrated.

I agree with what has been said. Our hobby needs creative people like yourself. Many of us are old school (maybe just old?) and don't have the knowledge of the new technology out there. Please consider making a batch of these. I would like to buy a few.

Looks great! If you don't want to produce them, you could share the setup file for a donation.

Very nice!! I could use a few. Would be very happy to make a donation to help with costs... you wouldn't have to worry with Case/IH unless you were making thousands of them and advertising or marketing them on a national level. Just selling or giving them away within the hobby would not be a problem. Amazing what you can do with modern technology and a little know how and want to!!

You could put me down for a few, and I would be interested in the diy/finish yourself one.

My wife has access to several of those 3D printers and has made all kinds of things for her class and school. I didn’t even know something like that existed. She kept telling me what it was. I said, no that’s a CNC machine, she said no it’s not.

She made keychains this year that were thin red material Mickey Mouse heads with her name and phone number engraved in them in white and some other multi level 3D piece with her name in it, looked pretty cool

Not sure but I think her machine can do colors so you wouldn’t have to paint them. Not sure how it does it but I’m sire there’s probably different variations of machines. She said the process takes a long time though.

That's really cool. Now, if someone could just 3D print some plastic hood panels.... That'd be a money maker.

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.
