Which attachment to Cubfest

Postby John *.?-!.* cub owner » Sat May 14, 2005 6:43 pm

One of the cubs I plan to bring to cubfest will be Missy, the 49 that bud Fisher (Cub-bud) and his Dad refurbished for me when my health failed in the middle of the job. I am trying to decide which attachment to bring with it. the rear mount disk plow, assuming I get it painted and reassembled in time, or the Mott flail mower. One note, I plan to take the Mott to Red Power. What would those of you that are coming to Cubfest prefer to see in use.

Art, thae main shaft is one place you don't want a chepa bearing. That shaft weighs aobut 40 pounds, turns at about 2,000 rpm and takes an awful beating.

since we are talking about a mott mower. I have one with a bad outboard bearing and the end of the shaft is bad. Has anybody had the shaft repaired and how to go about it?
Or do I have a pile of parts?

I would suggest taking it to a good machine shop that can turn it downa to fit a different bearing, or build it up and turn it down again.

Have learned that BigDogs' Brother in Law is planning to bring his flail mower. Guess that solves that problem.
