The Home Place in the beautiful, remote Big Bend region in Texas.
"I also have in mind that seemingly wealthy, but terribly impoverished class of all, who have accumulated dross, but know not how to use it, or get rid of it, and thus have forged their own golden or silver fetters.” —Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)

It Works!
Believe it or not, this thing works, even after sitting for more than a decade.
Hard to get an old swamp cooler down. ;) I'd suggest oiling bearings and some maintenance before using it for long though. At least pads, pump, belt, float and such should be fairly easy to find in Alpine.

Had one of those way back when. It worked ever after the micro burst blew it off the roof.
