Antique cast iron "WATER QUEEN" restore. 1915 predates metaframe and jewel

Looks incredibly cool! Because of the existing rust problem, I'd be tempted not to put water in it and make it a plant terrarium. It looks perfect for that!
 
sweet as, that thing is crucially awesome. with some elbow grease that would be an awesome setup
 
I have found very few pics and info on these on the intro-net, so please post pics, links or concepts that u think I should be aware of. I havent founda single pic of one of these fully restored and filled with water. and btw not ta be a dink but I already know pretty much everything about the meta.s and jewel brand so kinda stay relivant if at all poss. :) havent been round here ina while and usually cant think of any ?'s ta ask, but Im exitted for this project and cant wait ta learn more. Please enrich me with your knowledge O wise ones. Oh and also I bred TONS! of Rachel's E.annulatus Rocket OR Clown killies over 30, Im hoardin them
 
Where's SubRosa? he's old.lol :) I NEED INFO and Ima computer nimrod most times
 
WOW, I envy you that tank. It will be gorgeous if you decide to do a complete rebuild, I know that I would.

Is Water Queen the manufacturer or the model, if you know?
 
I believe water queen is the model and I forgot who made it, but I wrote it down somewhere. GOOD ?
 
Hey Brandon, I'm not THAT old! I've only seen those in pictures. I'd love to check it out next time I get up your way. Imo a better freebie than the 200 I got last year! A shame, I was just in Keene last week looking at properties. Found a real beaut on the top of Gunn Rd that we may make an offer on. I tested water in a couple of places and it's no wonder you have annulatus coming out of your ears with water that soft right out of the tap!I thought I'd never rinse out all of the shampoo when I washed my hair at the hotel!
 
We got crazy good water, I drink TONS :) Back ta the project: The "Water Queen"was built by the Pioneer Aquarium Company and heres sum things from books that Ive found. U guys remember books dont cha? There make of paper.lol :)
