playing in the dirt part 2--with two Cub Cadets

[Jeff in PA]

Since the 42" blade on the 1966 Cub Cadet 122 didn't want to cut thru packed dirt, I put the tiller on the 1968 Cub Cadet 125 and attacked it.

( not shown in the pics but if you lift the rear guard and back into the dirt, you can cut it down / reduce the height pretty quickly )


Then I jumped on the 122 to move the fresh loose dirt around.

The area turned out pretty good

My wife has come up with a couple of different ideas for the area. I'll just wait and see what she comes up with.

I already told her if I don't like it, the tiller and blade work real good :lol:
