I picked up an old water pump today but it’s not like any I’ve seen.
Does anybody know where I could find out more about this pump?
It has two wooden treadle type vanes that seem like they would “swish” the water as the handle is pumped from the mechanism kinda like duck’s feet and the inlet seems to only be a foot or so below the mounting plate.
It has F.E. Myer & Bro Ashland O USA on it.
I found that company and some pages but not this specific pump.
Anyone out there have any info? I’m going to attempt to restore it and sit it in my old rock walled well in the front yard.
