The Cub Cadet Man has been collecting Cub Cadets for many years. What started as finding the best, most reliable riding mower to mow several acres of land has now become a considerable hobby. The collection of Cub Cadets has grown over the years to include many of the early models including the 70, 71, 72, 73, and early 100 series. The "Cub Cadet Museum" (as friends and relatives like to call it) contains numerous Cub Cadets in various states of repair and restoration.
Besides collecting and restoring, the Cub Cadet Man also enjoys modifications and accessories. Among the modifictions are the two "Farmall" tractors shown at left. Accessories range from homemade, scaled-down rakes to vacuums to trailers and lifts.
With this site, the Cub Cadet Man hopes to bring a little of the knowledge and experience (that has been shared with him by the Cub Cadet community and earned through hard work) with others that share his interest. Questions that he commonly sees asked in forums and at events may well be answered in the How-To section. Photos of his modifications and collections can be found in the photos section. The Cub Cadet Man likes travelling around the Midwest visiting tractor shows. You may even see him at Plow Day or at Thresherman Park in Boonville, IN.
As always, if you have any questions, just click on "Contact Us" and ask away! And enjoy the site! |

Building the Mini Cub
Before I started building the cub, I experimented with different setups in an attempt to get some ideas of the general size of the tractor and wheels.

The mini-H took about 4 months (part time work) to build although it seems to be a continuous process to change and modify different parts and characteristics. I don’t know that it will ever be exactly the way that I want it. The beginning of the project involved looking at as many H’s as I could find and taking pictures from various angles. These were used to determine the overall look of the final product as well as approximating the lengths of various sections of the tractor. The mini-H wasn’t built to any scale, but wherever possible, I tried to get the correct proportions. Also, I'm not real good about taking pictures as I build. I get anxious to finish something and don't take the time to stop and take pictures. Therefore, you'll notice that a lot of pictures in this description were taken "after the fact." Sometimes it's a little harder to illustrate or show after something has been completed and painted, but I hope you can get the idea as you read through the description.
