Thank you kindly Frank.

Beautiful Jim, nice work as usual.
-
P.s These are really nice pumps.
-
Thanks one and all, much appreciated.... a lot of fun and a challenge in making this and as always very enjoyable.
Someone has suggested that I fabricate some type of a water wheel to run off the last water spout.....so that
has got the old brain thinking how that could be implemented, something to ponder over the Christmas break.

I like that Jim (a lot😊) as everyone has said above me, really top quality work there. Your Brazing work is really clean and well done. I would love to make myself one of those ....someday.😊 thanks for bringing us along on the maiden run.

That's a nice looking pump display! The cascading water from pot to pot makes it more interesting to watch.
-
Oh my... what a wonderful accessory you have created.
All that work certainly paid off.
It is just beautiful.!
I even like the brass strips on either side of the plinth.
They dress it up nicely.

Absolutely, Positively STELLAR!!!

OKMO Microcosm P71 Mini Pump mounted on a custom wood plinth with custom plumbing.
I had a lot of fun machining up a lot of the metal work and also doing the woodwork and then putting this all together, I have a lot of hours invested in this.
Silver brazing up the three copper pot water return was a fiddly job to tackle, I had an image in my mind after giving it a lot of thought of what I wanted and it worked out better than expected and better still it worked!
