#40 box blade
 
I got my repo #40 rewelded last week and wire brushed. So I had to lay some paint to stop it from rusting again. I hate to paint but this is better then leaving it bare metal.

The box part of the blade will be IH white and the lifting parts will be black. THe cutting edge will be black as well. The box blades were painted yellow but for what ever reason I thought they should be white. Seeing my is a repo box blade I figured doing it in IH white would be ok. I want to have larger International across the back then the stock decal. I will add one IH logo decal to each side of the blade. I've got some more coats of IH white to spray still. I'm using the rattle cans.

One of the cool things about this blox blade is that the stock lifts up at a angle and this one will lift straight up and on a angle depending on how it's hooked up.

Looks nice Duke! This one of the production run blades that Nash did or you get this one elsewhere? Any pictures of it before painting hooked up to one of the Cubs?

:ThumbsUp:

Mike this one was built before Nashcub did his batch. Here's some older pics of when I had it on my 122 w/Danco. I used it to add some top soil around my pond and it worked great! THe one thing that I liked about it being on the 122 was it looked like a big tractor with the FEL and box blade. I can't have that look on the 125 FEL setup due to needing the IH weight box to help keep the rear on the ground.:bash2: I love the IH weight box tho!

Thanks Diz! I just added another coat of paint. I didn't plan to do this just kinda got the urge to do it and haven't odered decals yet.:bash2: I'm thinking I want larger International across the back then the stock sticker that they use on the tillers and box blades. Thinking about getting some stencils and painting it on and using decals for the sides.:bigthink:
