Default Take that old lawn sweeper and make it look like an IH Round Baler!

Ok. You will all think im nuts for doing this but hey, who says work cant be fun! I decided to make my lawn sweeper look like an IH 2400 round baler. I got the rough framing done on it. Its currently being held together with screws, but i am going to put necessary lag screws and bolts where they need to be. Im going to use heavy alum black screen wire to wrap the center of the baler so you can see into it but, really affective on those windy days when those darn leaves blow out of the sweeper bag. Not any more. Ill post more pics tomorrow.

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.
