Jim-Is it your design on the water pump?

That is a very neat accessory Jim!

Is the orphan #20 a deluxe model? as i notice it had a "J" on the cylinder cover and did it have the cut out crosshead guide?

That is actually a very substantial amount of water being pumped, even at that rather relaxed pace.

Nice set-up Jim!

Thanks everyone appreciated the replies.

I bought the pump from Trev here in Australia and have done some extensive rebuilding and modding on it.

The orphan Jensen #20 has had the 'SPS' treatment by Bruce and is a super sweet runner.
