The original, packable, T-handle floor pump
Hand-crafted, proven reliability
Hello, I'm Richard Hughson. I'm very glad to be able to offer my balloon pumps again. I'm 73 years old, have been a machinist all my life, and I'm a perfectionist. You will receive a perfect pump, hand crafted by me personally - and it will last for years.
All of my pumps feature:
A high-impact nylon nozzle designed for 260s but also fitting a wide range of balloon sizes.
All my pumps come with an extra nozzle with a larger hole for ease of inflating 350s and 646s.
The pump can be built so the nozzles point up, to the side - or even down if you really wanted it for some reason.
Every pump I build is easily disassembled for fitting into your car or packing into a suitcase,
Each pump has a solid marine plywood base covered with three coats of protectant,
Every pump has a sturdy carrying strap already attached.
Top notch materials and workmanship throughout.
Not only a proven track record of reliability but - a five year warrantee against defects in materials and workmanship.
You will enjoy years of reliable, trouble-free ballooning.
I'm offering several different styles and sizes of pumps:
2” Single, 'The Smoothie' does not fully inflate a 260 with one push but is very easy to push down – $225
3” Single, 'The Standard' fully inflates a 260 with one push – $250
4” Single, 'The Monster' for 350 and 646 balloons only – $350 (This item is special order for those who use a LOT of the larger balloons. A new larger nozzle, designed specifically for the Standard 3" pump, is easily swapped out for switching back and forth between balloon sizes.)
2” Dual, two pumps on a single base with two nozzles, inflates matching balloons for weaving and dress making – $350
Pictures to come.
All my pumps are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for 5 years. I build them to last, and they do.

SHIPPING DEAL!!!
I will not charge for shipping in the lower 48 states, provided that you return the empty box and packing materials. You save on shipping and I save on making a new box - it's win-win!
