[QUOTE="Kid Glock, post: 3826823, member: 189"] I remember when they were in use around here and in fact had a can of "Jack Post Grease". Years ago (1980's), I relieved pumped for a guy that still had the power house and several jacks still in use near Mason, Iron Post and Gypsy area. Pretty ingenious operation including the horizontal wheel to change direction of rod lines, etc. ETA: Little off topic but back around this same time, the company (small independent) I worked for which had quite a few old standard derricks over the pump jacks that had become too dangerous to pull rod and tubing over, so we got the task to "throw" them. After trying several different ways, on the side, on the corner, etc. we got fairly decent at it. Was pretty exciting to watch the derricks topple over and the crown blocks go flying through the brush. Thread hijack over... [/QUOTE]
