By the date above, it's been 17 days since my last post on this thread. I've been distracted from my restoration by a few things including everyday life, work, cold nights and weekends, and a new project. The new project is a new garage that I've begun building in my back yard.

I promise to continue work on my pump. In fact, delivery of my globe body and lenses should be here today or tomorrow. I spoke to the painter and he expressed that we may can paint next week.

More to come.
