Default Hello from Northwest Ohio

Thought I should introduce my self. I joined back in 2010 and am a semi retired farmer, I have been lurking around gathering info and admiring the fine tractors on this forum, and decided to get involved. I have a number of Cubs in my herd including a 100 with a creeper gear that I restored and mainly use to till the garden and spray the lawn. A 127 with electric lift that is used as a beater mower. A restored 782 with power steering, super steer axle from a 1864, a GT-46 deck with a bagger attachment and a 20 HP Command engine swap. It is used to collect leaves in the fall and the wife uses it to help with the mowing. It is a great running and driving machine. I also have two 782 parts tractors and a 1864 parts tractor. Two 1872's, one with a 23 HP Command swap that is my main user tractor for now and then will become a dedicated snow blower tractor after the rebuild of the other 1872. For it I plan to install a 28 HP EFI Command engine, triple hyd valves with front and rear outlets and separate control of the three point lift and center lift, I also have a 60 inch mower deck for it from a newer style Cub Cadet that I adapted to work on a 1872. It will be painted to look like a 5488 farm tractor. I also have a 451 snow blower, a 1A rear tiller and a QA42a snow blower. I guess you can't have too many Cubs. I also just scored a White 42 inch sickle bar mower today that will get installed on one of the parts 782's after I replace the blown up KT17 with the Mag 18 from the 1872 I am rebuilding. I guess that is enough of my rambling. Got to many projects to finish!!!!
Thanks for the great site.
Later
Tom

Thanks Terry. Yes I do have a collection. I told the wife that I am tired of changing implements so I will just get a cub for each job and just leave the attachment on it. I will see what I can do about some pictures after I get them out of winter storage. The only one out now is my worker 1872 as I just removed the snow blower and heat houser and have been using it to roll the lawn. I need to get the 100 out and mount up the tiller so I can till the garden.

Nice collection Fred. I'm in southwest Ohio and I fell into this whole Cub Cadet family by accident when I bought a rare 882 to mow my lawn. I had no idea it was collectible or that there was an entire Cubby community out there. I just wanted to find out how to fix my tractor and here I am.

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.
