Default Making it Official

OK Guys, I've been sneaking around here for a while, and now I am making iit official. I got myself registered, now I am trying to get aquainted with the site and the other members.

Anyhoo I am down here in Mo. and I have had a 1964 100 for a few years now, I have rebuilt the engine and installed a new clutch, and some aglug tires. I have also built my own three point hitch, then adapted a Bolens eight inch plow, a single David Bradley disc, and a Simplicity spring tooth harrow. Now I am working on a wheel horse drag harrow.

I recently aquired pieces and parts of a 1966 102. The engine is gone from this tractor, so I plan to install a 16 horse Briggs single cylinder, that I just happen to have. Whenever I get around to it I want to build a backhoe unit and front end loader for this one. Anyone got ideas on how to put hydraulics on a CubCadet?

I spent most of my life on a small farm, now I am too old and crippled up to do it anymore so I am into what I call microfarming, and doing it with my CubCadet.

Hope to have some fun and share ideas with some of you;Cadetfarmer

Default Feeling at Home Here

Hi Guys;

Ya'll know how to make a guy feel welcome. JDM did I see somewhere on here that you have a machine shop? I do some machining and welding in my shop here at home.

My intent is to build or adapt an entire line of farm machinery for my cubs, I already have a little Simplicity hay mower along with the other implements I have already adapted. Did I mention that put a rear pto on my 100, I used the parts from an fcub, that I picked up at cubarama last year. I had to shorten the mainshaft and respline it on the one end, then I made the shift mechanism so that it fits on the cubcadet.

I dream of building a miniture hay baler, and pull type combine, Ah if only I had more time.

For anyone that has checked my info, the Sub teaching gig is temporary, until I can find another job as an engineer.

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.
