This is my temporary workbench that has been set up in the old Mill Office. I'd take more photos, but it's also chaos in the other three directions...
Those orange parts on the bench (old door from the house actually) are a Fairbanks-Morse pump given to me by a neighbor who, in the olden days, used to use it to pump water out of her creek for her livestock. A historic object, for sure, like the notion of water in a creek around here.
It is now back together after a bit of refurbishing, I haven't a lot of confidence that it is going to work as I am unfamiliar with the pump mechanism and the orientation of certain parts, and I haven't been able to find anything on the internet about it. I'll be testing it in the next few days.
