This is what you should have had Rob, when you were inquiring a couple years back about a cheap pump to put in your hand-dug well. This says you have to keep the ropes from rubbing against each other, someone should correspond with the NGO's working on rope pump projects to get diagrams of two and three-pulley systems you con't have to watch---or use a Robert Green VAWT with a gear or vane pump attached to the bottom of the rotating shaft and immersed in the well. Good idea to stack Green rotors for more torque and pump output.
