Re: I’ve gone red!

That picture Joe just confirms to me that I made the right call getting involved with cub cadet vs wheel horse. At one point my dad had both and I maybe could have gone ether way. The wheel horse just looks cobbled together. It looks like someone made it in their garage. The cub cadets are so smooth...

Re: Shop organization

Yep Steve that is a problem and compound that with this is mostly a wood shop. When I got all done I asked my wife to come out and see my creation. She looks at my old setup and says.."how will you keep the dust out". I said.... maybe an air gun every once and a while. At this point I was pretty exc...

Thanks guys. Those cheese boxes are cool Ken. Just goes to show how real wood and good jointery will last a very long time. I have always liked those "box corners"! I'm thinking my plastic bins will also last a long time... :oops:

I have this space over a small work counter in my workshop. I was thinking peg board but really looked at my needs and peg board wasn't it. Having an old hack saw and some wrenches hanging on a peg board didn't sound very appealing. So....I'm thinking less words ....and more pictures will tell the s...

Re: Custom build 1772 Diesel

Looks really great!! Is that a new wiring harness? I know they can get pretty stiff and crusty I guess from the cheap wire and age. How did the fuel tank drop in? Did you have to do any mods to get things to fit?

Re: Snow blade

The Haban 401 is a heavy duty front blade that was made for the cub cadet "super" line. It's a very heavy set-up as the builder spared no expense with the steel. I have no idea if that would fit your tractor but I'm guessing it would not work without modifications. You would also need a robust lifti...

I wonder if he's saying the blade won't fit on the undercarriage? Tell him he needs a big pry bar to get the "ears" or studs into the undercarriage holes. I have wrestled with that before. Tell him he needs to be a man about it!! Tell him.. let's go Brandon about it!
