2 years ago I bought my SIL a restored 1969 Cub Cadet 106 lawn tractor. He likes vintage stuff and needed a mower.
I ask him occasionally if it is doing ok, he says it is. He recently asked me to help him put a new PTO belt on it because it was ragged and “wasn’t cutting well”.
He brought it to my shop this morning and we got the belt replaced. This isn’t super hard but it’s a horizontal shaft setup with pulleys that change the direction to go back to the mower deck.
Got that done, blew out the air filter (and ordered a replacement), added a little oil and checked tire pressure. Finally I said “lets check the blades to see if they need sharpening….”
This is when I discovered it was no wonder it wasn’t “cutting well”. One of the three blades, the left outer, was missing. Gone. Not there
The boy is an excellent dad, a decorated firefighter and I love him but he ain’t a mechanic

Forgot about these...almost everything was used as a weapon back then, even soup/beer cans, duct tape, a bottle opener, tennis ball, and copious amounts of lighter fluid (polish cannon, anyone)?
Wilkes CraterTrue?
This giant hole beneath Antarctica could be the 'greatest impact crater known' on Earth
Researchers have proposed many origins for a gravity anomaly in Wilkes Land, East Antarctica, but the latest evidence suggests the subglacial hole is an impact crater measuring 315 miles across.
