Got some YELLOW sprayed today...I now have blisters on my fingers from the paint gun, and my hands have a yellow tinge.
Yellow covers like crap. I'm gonna have to get another pint. I'm still really liking this PPG Shop Line paint. It looks really good to me. I have most of the engine to prime and paint yet, and all of the white, but it's getting there. Hopefully It'll be done by RPRU. |

I've finally got the remainder of the yellow parts primed, which I hope to paint either tomorrow or Friday. I made a new driveshaft out of 4140 Chromoly steel...should last awhile The 1st picture is my driveshaft hole drilling guide, made from an old driveshaft coupler and a scrap piece of angle iron. It works perfectly!
As you can see, I've been painting too much. I can't wait to stop so these can heal... |

Your drive shaft hole drilling guide is interesting. The drive shaft is a pain to center for the cross pins (spirol pins) if I do another drive shaft I may build a bushing to center the holes as well, a nice thick piece (thicker the bedder for drill bushing) with 5/8" hole would do it.
Will be interesting how the 4140 CM holds up, if you break that I would like to try the motor out myself. 4140 machines great as well. I used a lathe, and scribed a line to locate center on when I made my driveshaft. It was a pain drilling the holes, I really need a mill, and that's a great excuse as well. Would like to see a pic of your driveshaft install when your done. You gonna work harden your hands if you keep those blister going, that paint gun may need some cushion implants. Everything looks great so far (except your hand) please keep the pics going as I'm very interested in this I may be doing the same to mine soon. |

I finally started bolting the 100 back together. I gotta plate a kajillion things yet and paint the white. I've finally got enough filler in the seat so it shouldn't look too bad...Then I just have to fill/sand the hood, sandblast the wheels, paint all the white stuff, put the motor together, touch up yellow, put the decals on, break in the motor, and I'm done

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.
