Thumbs up New shop stuff!!!

Well the wife broke down and LET ME get a few items for the shop. I bought a new Mig with spool gun, drill press, Cheep Plasma, but it works great, new grinder, and a few other small items. Now I can start trying to do some of my own fabrication. I have wanted to start doing some of my own work for a long time. Use to work with a friend that is an amazing fabricator, and he kinda got me interested in it. Ill shoot some pix when I get it all set up .I know other than the Mig there not Big brand names, But for the amount of use they will get as just a hobby they will work just fine.

I've hit farm sales and have found really nice stuff. Drill press with the different pulleys on top to change drill speed, vices, nice big anvil, bench grinders.. ect...

I still use a hedge trimmer that is all heavy metal (craftsman), don't know how old but at least 40 years and works better than any new plastic one. Will cut a lot thicker hedge that the others would chock on.

Don't get me wrong, new tools are great, I have a set of pullers and a nice set of tap and dies coming in this week. Just like XMas..

When I need something done right, I just go visit SamMac.



Just kidding, but, there are few tools as much fun as a plasma or oxy-torch!!

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.
