This is pretty neat

Here's where you can post your Cub Cadet based specials. Actually, if it's cool and not Cub based, post it anyway!

FYI...The original poster of this thread also used build all kinds of neat things .. back in the day. I think that's why he posted this because he was working on plans for a rocket cub! He was a legend in his time. I heard from someone that he once worked for a space program or something to do with outer space. Sure miss that old guy!! Too bad newer members will never have known Big Mike. :cry:

I would definitely have loved to sit down over a cup of coffee and chat with this guy! Hopefully he shared his knowledge so it's not lost...

WHAT!!! IT MUST BE SOME SORT OF MIRACLE!!! HE IS ALIVE!! I knew you were still around, I just knew it. Never mind all that B.S. that dag said! How is Big Mike and what you been up to? I had a hip done over Christmas...and now that I'm all repaired I'm trying to bother Tom but with limited success. Hope that little mini ***** contraption your working on is making some progress. I really don't have anything in the works right now sad to say.

Big Mike! I see you're from Michigan, but sadly downstate, about 9 hours south of me. If I'm ever down that way again, I would love to stop by and see your machines. I was just down in the thumb about a month ago picking up a new to me cub.

Not much to see here as far as Cubs anymore. I am down to my early 100, 1-125 and my 2072.
If you get down this way by all means let me know!
