Victorian Water Pumps
« on: June 30, 2013, 07:15:32 AM »
I just picked up a couple of Yeoman Miniature castings of Victorian water pumps from eBay.  They should make good scenery or objective markers.  The casts were clean and crisp.

Nice useful bits of kit.  I had looked at the Langley ones but they are either too large or too small.

Very handy! Thanks for that.

Agreed. It's a bit hit and miss with Langley whether their accessories will scale well, sometimes you have to wait until they fall through your letterbox. 
Don't!

Hello,
I made the Water Pumps and I'm glad people like them. :) They have been off sale for a little while as the mould got a little tired, but we've made a new mould and the pumps are now in resin - so they are a little less expensive!

You can find them on eBay here http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=121163674663

I'm currently trying to make some ornate Victorian street lights and some other street furniture and well as one or two larger items from the 30's that I think could be good but I want to keep them a secret for now.

I'm making some more items for all sorts of scales but I have a lot of ideas for 28mm pulp items, but if anyone wants to make a suggestion, please get in touch!

Those are cute!  :-* I can see plenty of uses for them.
