Pumper Wagon update

Posted by Bergland Matchwood Historical Scoiety on January 18, 2010 at 3:38 PM

Our pumper Wagon is back from  the Powder coaters. It's beautiful! One wheel is made, and the other is being worked on. Look for an article in the newspaper as well as on here this spring. The whole community needs a pat on the back for this one. Special thanks go out to Howard Yesney, Mike Flood, Mike Streeter, and the Bergland Fire Department. It goes without saying that before and after pictures will be posted as well.


UPDATE: March 2010

Mike Flood finished the second wheel. Mike does some beautiful work. We will be painting the woodwork as soon as the weather warms up. This will be a beautiful display of our first piece of Firefighting equipment.


UPDATE: May 2010

Mike Flood has finished his portion of the Pumper wagon. The wheels are painted and it looks fantastic. I have to make the tounge and crossbar for pulling it by hand. This is going to be a beautiful display.
