I prefer the visibles, but those clockface pumps are neat too. I have learned the Bennett pump I am planning first came out around 1939. Just in time for gas rationing!

Hello,

what do you think of this combination of old and new.
There is an old forge which has been converted into a fish snack.

Nice little building. A vast improvement over the usual fast-food structures.

After following Georges (Bill76) build of a manure spreader, thought these photos would be appropriate.

A little help Please? I found this picture of this cool truss bridge, but the quality of the image is low, does anyone have a better picture of a similar bridge and or a plan?
Thanks

Have a look here Gil: http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/hhh.pa3754.photos.362164p/?co=hh and here: http://www.loc.gov/pictures/search/?q=Drawing:%20md1890&fi=number&op=PHRASE&va=exact&co=hh&st=gallery&sg=true. Not exactly the same but may provide some valuable info. There are also several other railway bridges in the HABS/HAER collection... worth doing a search.

That manure spreader car is cool. Kind of "farmpunk".
