In the spirit of the pioneers at Spindletop we have produced this kit which has an old style wooden Oilfield Derrick and in this case a Pump at the base connected to what would have been a Steam Engine in the Pump House alongside, although in this case our model maker is the power behind the Pump. Two grooved pulleys are connected via a drive belt and they in turn use a pair of pushrods to operate a vertical lift pump in the same way as the Oilfield Pump Jack.
Each model kit comes with
- All wooden components shaped and drilled
- Sandpaper for finishing
- PVA glue
- Parts list
- Comprehensive instructions
The models are manufactured from renewable wood sources and are design for age 9 and over. Younger builders may require the assistance of an adult. The models, both kits and built, are not suitable for children 3 years and under due to the risk of choking on the small parts.
