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



Good catch, Jumper!!
I'm not overly concerned, this is what the plastic looks like.

LMAO The directions are almost useless. Gives “Some Assembly Required” a whole new meaning.

What size green house is this? 8x10 I've seen harbor freight sell them for as little as $ 300.00 , are they worth it, or should I scratch?

Overall I'm happy with it. If you live in a high wind area the panels may come off. We had a couple pop off once but it may have been because I didn’t have them attached properly. Put them back on and so far so good. For what it costs I think it’s a good deal.

Next time you stop down you can take pics of the green house. The greenhouse is for the honey. For me if it doesn't have an engine I don't bother with the camera and I can't post pics of the other things that I find entertaining. It’s taken me a long time to become a dirty old man and I’m gonna enjoy it. LMAO

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.
