Sam: What a great paint booth, I'm sure she won't miss it for a few hours at a time. Good thinking on the wheels.

Looks like I need to do something with the plastic panels, the wind took a couple of them off last night. No damage to them but the clips that hold them in place suck.

The wind is the reason I do not have a bigger greenhouse, sorry to hear about the panels.

I would have thought parking it next to the other shed would have protected it better.

I got a quart of JB Weld, if you want to borrow it!!

We have the technology to make it better! Aluminum, a drill and pop rivets. Just happen to have a couple boxes from the old race car days along with the air gun to put them in.

Old Racer saying “If you can’t fix it with duct tape and silicone it’s beyond repair” LOL

One thing you have to watch for is the expansion of aluminum in the heat, if your rivets are to tight in the holes they could crack the plastic panels.

Woh!! there could easily be a 0.10 inch difference in the expansion of the aluminum and the acrylic sheet!!

I would just pop rivet near the center, and continue using the clips top and bottom.

The clips were probably used to allow for thermal expansion difference.



Good catch, Jumper!!

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.
