Default No Cub Cadets were harmed in the process

I cut up this B&S engine to help explain 4 stroke motors to my 10 year old grandson. He has big shoes to fill coming from three previous generations of auto mechanics. Not me; wife's family.
If he's not interested at least I enjoyed making it. All parts rotate, valves open/close when turning the hand crank.

Now how cool is that.....Something the industrial technology classes could really use in the schools!! Great idea. Nothing like hands on learning.....and that's the best way to study sex education, too, but heck that is another story.

All kiddin' aside, I hope your grandson learns a lot from it and appreciates the mechanics of an engine. Who knows where that might lead him in the future.... Again, takes a whole village to raise a child, as we are all responsible for our future.

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.
