Wooden Field Wheel Template

This is a wooden template for a field wheel. Field wheels were normally cast in metal for use in the oil fields. The purpose of a field wheel is to transfer mechanical energy from the powerhouse to all the pump jacks located throughout the property. The circular design of the wheel can change the direction of any of the jerker line arms coming off it into any of the 360 degrees of direction. It makes ¼ turns to push and pull the pump jacks up and down.
