Chris, You and your students did great! Can't go wrong when you add Steamboat in there, where did you find the globe, add glass and decals? I'd like to do one myself someday. I hope the boy enjoys autbody at LCCC glad to see kids who aren't afraid to get dirty and work with their hands heck they don't even have any shop classes here in Greeley really makes me upset as it gives kids real life knowledge and shows them that with hard work and patience you do anything that's not so common anymore in this point and click world we live in. Be sure to tell them I'd be proud to have them work on one for me any day.
Let er' buck!
Bob

Thanks for all the positive comments!
The globe was custom made a couple years ago, but Scott Anderson at Time Passages can also make them. The globe that you see on the pump is my globe, but the one that is actually on the pump was made by Time Passages very recently and looks exactly the same. It is my design, so if you'd like one, please let me know and I'll get you the specifics.
The ad glass was made by T-Way and it looks great. He also made the decals for the pump plates. We cut out a 12" round pieces of 1/8" sheet metal, drilled holes in it, stuck on the decal, and then clear coated it.
I really appreciate all the nice comments and help that most people on this site have given us. I'm glad that most of the people on this site are interested in helping kids out on their path to learning what I feel are very important skills and teaching them about a pretty cool hobby.
Chris

I'm normally not a fan of "custom" pumps but I LOVE that thing...
It represents your state well!
Those guys did a great job.
