Hello all
Thanks for the praise chaps. It's amasing how much work a simple bloody pump needs to get it running well again. Gees they can cop a flogging during their working lives.
This pump was originally green but the shed is full of green stuff and the red paint tin was at the front of the shelf so....red it is then Scotty.
I have an idea for a display Cobba. Playing things close to my chest just in case they fail. And they probably will.
A clue is Oscar.
I have not found too much on the net about these IBC plunger pumps Justin.
I assumed they would have been handy as a milk pump as they're very simplistic and very easy to clean. A bucket of hot water down the funnel and jobs done. Your pump set up as a milk pump should be in pretty good nick as they were only used a little bit morning and night.
I have another plunger pump the same as this. It's also missing the rear door. It would be easy to lose one as they only rely on gravity to stay on there. Maybe we could get some cast out of brass by the fella demonstrating at some rallies around the traps? Brass would be nice....and easy. At least we all know where there is one for casting purposes
I'm away for 2-3 weeks so things are on hold for the time been. Why does life get in the way of interesting things?
For those who are thinking.....
he's gone...beauty...time for a sticky beak in the shed. The vicious attack dogs are still there. Below is a picture of them waiting for their tea. A couple of Jehovah's walking up the street. Mmmm, Jehovah shanks.
If you get past them, the cranky possums will sort you out.
Cheers Scott
