Merryweather Manual Pump 1879

This second photo shows the removal of the hose boxes and the paint being burned off.I had to make a new pump cover, seat and footboard and replace numerous pieces of smaller woodwork and fittings. All the ironwork was removed and sand blasted and every coat of primer, undercoat, topcoat and varnish was all hand applied( i am a fifth generation coachpainter).
