I then protect everything with a nice clear coat. My pulley's are a work of art.
This pulley comes from the great State of California and was a salvage piece from an old factory. Rare and massive it is by far the largest pulley I have ever worked on. It has a very strong gothic and art deco feel to it and is certainly early 1900's to late 1920's. This pulley is one of a kind and would be perfect in a loft living setting. It was pretty rusty when I received it.Once all the rust had been removed this beauty shined!!! The iron has been clear of all rust and sealed to show the shine. All parts are original and nothing is missing.
Measures: massive 18" inches long, 15" inches tall, and 5 inches thick. The iron wheel measures: 12 across and spins very freely. Note that the iron wheel does have a small crack however it is structurally sound.
It simply adds to the patina and age. All original and spins and works perfectly. The pictures may show a hint of glare as the sun interacts with the clear coat. They have traveled as far as Japan and Australia, illustrating the quality and desire for early American Cast Iron and Industrial design. Easily can still be used in a barn like the olden days or perhaps hung in a loft for lighting.
