You Guys are really good at what you do, and like many, once the better weather comes around,
I'm outdoors. After the past 3 weeks preparing for last Saturday's annual game room party, today
was an exceptionally nice February day so I began on one of the many ball bowlers that I need to get
done. Like most, this one will need much cosmetically and mechanically. But once the nicer weather
comes to stay, I'm usually doing some type of constructing but also enjoy restoring anything that
will fit in the somewhat vintage park that I had built over the years. I never took many before pics,
but spent much time to get the equipment looking okay and back in action..
After picking it up many years back, I'm planning on restoring the old Pull-a-Way Merry-go-Round
this coming Summer. Always look forward for the Summertime projects.. (T)

Quoted from Mike_J:

Quite a beautiful setup.

Thanks for the beautiful comment.
When I first bought the land, that part of the property was a scrub brush Amazon Swamp.
No exaggeration.. It took a lot of hard work and I'm fortunate to be able to say that I'm still
able to continue at it.. (T)

By the end of September, I finished restoring the "Game Time" Pull-a-Way Merry-go-Round, and poured
it's cement pad. Only have the 8 bench seats left to do (2 x 12 PT) which I just bought today, stored away,
and will attach in Spring when they'll be dried out..
I'm pretty sure this pump merry-go-round is from the 40s..
