Good morning everyone,It’s a good day start my Ottawa pump.I’ve had this pump for about 10 years kinda of hesitant and intimidated by it.Its missing all the doors and I was never certain on how to go about making them.The plain doors are easy enough but the cast door has me questioning my ability.Not sure if I’m going to make it out of the steel donor pipe I got or make a mold by carving it out of wood and casting it.If anyone has any ideas that would be great.just thought I’d share have a good day everyone.

Such a cool pump! Goodluck on restoration!

Ottawa going back together.Had to make the new doors.They were all missing.There not cast and the fonts a little different but I think they turned out ok.

Ottawa pump completed.Still missing the nozzle holder .I think I’m going to try to carve one out of wood and cast it in brass
