Arthur Jory and his Model
Arthur is standing next to a model he built of a mine shaft timber work, the pumping and winding arrangement, and a horse whim (capstan),attached and offset from the top. The pump rod is clearly visible, the top of which would have been attached to the nose of the beam engine. This model demonstrates the timber shafting, the pump rod, the pump at the base. For general information on early mine pumps, engines, and operations, see the Wikipedia article.
