Well guys, here it is. I shot it yesterday, and edited and uploaded today.
Hopefully it is of some use to someone!

Very cool video !!! While cleaning out the barn this weekend, dad and I found an old power converter my grandpa had thrown in there some time ago. I thought yesterday about how cool it would be to mount to the cub somehow and have a mobile generator ! I too thought about the possibilities of power tools, flashlights, and why not even a radio when you're working on the job site ?? :D Glad to see it worked for you. I hope dad and I can get a similar set up one day !

Glad you are all enjoying the video. I think the next one I make will be of the "fire engine" which we connect to the Cub and use the generator to power the electric pump...

Nice set up. I was wondering about the David Bradley plate on the volt meter box. Been around a lot of Bradleys and thats a first for me. Is the gen a Bradley??. Thanks. Grump

Great job - on both the generator job and the video. :D :D Any idea what your maximum power output is?

Hi, ccmdvl, I saw your terrific video and I loved it; I think you're on to something very effective, and an approach not often used on the forum. Your topic was interesting, clearly shot and educational - just the kind of quality presentation that is enthusiastically appreciated. Who of us tires of seeing the start-up of a well-maintained Cub, and of going for a ride?

You obviously have experience in this medium and your previous editing was certainly effective as your "story line" proceeded with a logical sequence. You spoke with a clear, measured, pleasant-sounding voice. I sure appreciate your efforts and hope you'll do more.

Kit
