I had 2 rough 42" blades ...so out comes the sawzall
They were pretty rough. One had 1/4" worn off one end of the blade itself and down to the screws.. The other wasn't as bad. I decided to cut them at the screw holes which are spaced at 6.5" so I'm actually ending up with a 55" blade.

That was the other day. I got back on it for a few hours this morning and blasted it and di a little more welding, Did grind the welds smooth on the face of the blades. I'll grind the frame and back side of the blade yet, but not worry about perfection. Hey, it will be white. I'll try and get onto the mounting frame modifications for the super 1762 Monday maybe.

BC,
That's a lot of work marrying those blades together. Very good pictures of your methods. That will be a great snow moving machine! Sam, I like the idea of the plastic on the blade for a non stick surface. Regards, Chris

Where would one get plastic like that, and would 1/4" carriage heads work to hold it on in Winter and remove for dirt pushing, or would it be ok to leave it on? I've had snow stick to the blades and thought wd-40 or something might help..maybe wax or rain x?

I used 1/8" UHMW plastic. Just do a Google on it and find out who has the best price. I used rivets because I had a full box from my race car. Carriage bolts would work just as well. When I built the plow for my Kubota I used 1/4" because I removed the skin from the plow and only used the frame. It was an old Meyers from a F-150 that I narrowed. Works awesome. Just put it on the Bota for the first time this year and I hope we get enough snow to make it worth while. Haven't plowed snow since I moved to VA and I'd like to get at least 1 storm. OK I know it's the wrong color but I posted the pics just to give you guys some ideas.

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.
