Great video! As usual, I enjoy learning about the history of these along with the demonstration on how to service them along with seeing the awesome operation they deliver! Your personal interaction in seeing the installation of the 10091 in the baseball fields, brings back very fond memories of my little league days in the 60’s. After our games my father was involved in maintaining the fields with the watering. We had the Buckner 8280’s in service on the entire field at that time and i just enjoyed watching them work! Thanks for sharing this great sprinkler for all to enjoy!…
I just discovered this channel. This is SO COOL!!! My house growing up had an irrigation system and I would love fixing it up, replacing parts and programming it in the spring. I’m excited to look through your videos! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and collection!
Very nice 10091. I never knew these existed. I knew there was a 10791, that was with the PJ tube arm. Supposed to compete with rainbirds 47. This runs well! And it's in great shape. Appreciate the history too! Thank you for sharing! I've always liked the brass buckners due to the brass casing they use.
@NelsonBigGunP200Fan I’m honestly not sure. Is your IB101 1”? When they started introducing that new style of model number, I stayed with the 5-digit numbers, then I left the industry. I’d have to look at a catalog from the eight years to be sure. I’m hesitating mostly because they had multiple 1” part circle pop up impacts and the 1.25” part circle pop up impact had a 5-digit model number that ended in 101.
Bill, Great info as usual I really like seeing the internal assembly and how much better the spoon drive runs vs the PJ. One thing you might find interesting is the little tracking nubs you pointed at with your screwdriver were stainless like a quick coupler valve key on the Rain Bird pop up internal assembly. They were only present on the part circle models which enabled them to reverse direction. keep them coming!!!
Beautiful sprinkler and love hearing the history. There are some 10092 rotors near my house still in service after all these years. I've been trying to figure out when they run to take some video

A field of 8280’s is a true Field of Dreams, and that’s coming from an Iowan.

Thanks! I’m glad you found it. I like talking about irrigation. I enjoyed the years I was in the industry. So, making these videos is fun for me.
Awesome Buckner 10091 popup, it runs very well.
Thanks!

@@antiquesprinklers Is this the same as the IB101? I have one of those too. I have videos of it as well.

@@antiquesprinklers yes my IB100 and 101 are both 1" input. I have a IB120 however that's 1 1/4". It's like the rainbird 51 just a bigger input.

Thanks, Frank! That is interesting. I’m sure you took a ton of them apart.

Thanks! It’s so great to hear that some of these are still in use!
Reminds me of a rainbird 51
Agree. It’s very similar to a 51.
