Default #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?

Can't wait to see it all painted up with the new decals
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. 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.

I got some more painting done on the box blade. I'll put a couple more coats on it to be safe. I couldn't find the stencils with the correct font so I didn't buy any yet, but still looking! Got to go order the side decals still and get those coming in. Once I get the 1200 done I'll reassemble and get some pics with it mounted up on the 1650.

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.
