Cut out the bushes, and moved all the landscaping bricks out of the way.

Getting ready to start bulldozing with the 1811. Worked really well. I found the best going was to let the blade rise on its own from the load then back up and scrape the remainder flat.

Finished product. It looks rough right now, but when Im done with it and the yard is in full bloom its going to look pretty smart. Plus its going to be a lot easier to mow around. Also the green stain on the bricks looks much worse in the photo then it does in person. Going to acid wash the bricks to get them clean.
Looks great that blade did a great job!

The last picture of the 1282 is from before I painted them. I also went through a column I had for the "O", did the bearing upgrade at the top and preped and primed it for paint.
Sweet pics as always Eric!

Another day and some more loader pics! Your welcome Ben! I wanted Evan to get in on all the fun so he used the 125 and garden cart to haul the dirt and dump it. He was having problems pulling the latch to dump the bed so I went to help and got a ride or two back to the loader. Then I got to give him one little ride. I guess it's more fun to be the driver and not the rider. Evan put me back in my place and I had to ride in the back after that. I smoothed the pile of dirt out with the loader. I put the tiller back on the 125 and tilled the dirt we moved so grass could grow.

Have I told you lately how much I love my loader? I love my loader! It was worth the wait!

Default got about 12 inches of snow today

spent all day plowing various driveways. mom was able to take a couple pics of me in the 1450. the cab is great for looks and keeping snow out of your face but other wise its the biggest PITA ever. its noisey, barely any room, visability sucks. but owell it was fun moving snow until it got above freezing and started plugging up the blower

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.
