Amazing what people can do when they feel the need! I would have liked to see more of what those four wheels on the power unit were doing. Seems like no need for four of the wheels unless they are all powered.

In the video description he mentions that both rear axles drive.

I didn’t know I needed a mini grader until 10 min ago lol that thing is amazing

This guy is on a Cub Cadet forum I frequent. All 4 rears are powered.

I believe he has made a few other contraptions as well.

There was a guy who made a bulldozer out of a Cub 100 ? decades ago, impressive 'winter project' as he made the tracks ,each piece, every single one.......website had list of materials so you could make your own...

Look at the starter on that thing, it could probably drive the whole unit.

That would be the generator, and yes in some cases it's both the generator and the starter.

Funny you should say that. I find myself doing the same.

I'm guessing he's a retired grader operator and the county wouldn't let him keep his machine. That thing is TOO cool. He needs to be on the new show with Tim Allen, "Assembly Required".

I sent that clip to a friend of mine who used to operate a grader for snow removal for the city, he asked if I could build him one. Lol I said if he had enough money I could make the time.

Well looks like I need a few parts and couple old cubcadets to get started lol. Never thought I would want a grader but I do now. That's awsome alotta time and thought went into this thing.

I mean...would this thing have enough weight to actually get that blade a couple of inches into the hard pack? I mean it's cool....and obviously not going to perform better than a machine 3x it's size. I just wonder what the limits on that thing is....because it looks really cool! lol
