well, whatever it is, it COULD be like what my Dad built for his 3 point.. Stick a ball on it, drop it down, back up to a trailer, pick the tongue off the ground, move it, mow, put it back.. Pretty slick really.

NO CLUE what you're working on! Whatever it is seems to be built strong enough!

Ok folks, here it is. Sorry it took so long, kids, wife, ya know how it goes. Drilled the three holes in the center and one on each end for now. Might drill two more on the ends depending how it works. Mounted it on the 125 and tom. will try it out. Btw Jeff, it weighs in at 7.5 pounds! I dont see this bending any time soon! Here are some pics of it mounted on the tractor and Jeff's fine work test fitted to it.

Id' say that's PLENTY strong enough to accept a ball!

You cheated by not showing us the rest of it!

Sorry. Thats all there is to show. Just wanted a bracket that would hold up to years of abuse.

It certainly looks as beefy as what Larry built! Together it looks like you'd be pretty safe lifting most cars with it!

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.
