Ernst Plank Windmill & Pump accessory
« on: May 10, 2024, 07:20:24 pm »
Another borrowed item I haven’t played with it. It is very finicky.  I hooked it up to my PM research mini power steam plant and I had to make a lot of adjustments to get it working, but it works. Makes nice sound and surely does pump water.

There is a video for you to enjoy.

Found through searching this is an Ernst Plank windmill pump from Germany. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
