Steam Driven Water Pump for Vertical Boiler

by John

Unfortunately I did not make this pump.  It was made by Stuart Tankard.  I have the castings and plans, and intend to make one for my 6″ vertical boiler but I have too much on the go at present and will finish the vertical boiler and the Trevithick engine first.

Enjoy the pics.  Stuart sets the machining standard for the rest of us to aspire to.

We did not see it running today, but it does work.

It is a 6” Duplex pump from Southworth Engines.
