Morning,
What is the diameter of the Beatty oil return hub?
And what wear tolerance is acceptable?
Thanks for your help

Morning
For the Beatty windmill- What grade of steel balls are required? I see some are slingshot quality and have seen some up to $30 each. Yikes.
Thanks for the help

Evening all,
Couple of questions for the Beatty fans.
How do you patch bullet holes? Like this one in the hood of my Beatty mill cap.
Can this Beatty pump be identified by year? It works and we use it. It is our water pump when power is off. Had it in the basement for 40 years and finally set it up 4 years ago
And my seven year old granddaughter uses it often watering grammas' flowers. She will pump and carry 6 or more buckets. Says she is a farmer girl.
