Shafter Pump and Machine Shop Rated Best Equipped
The Shafter Pump and Machine Shop at 519 Central Valley Highway, run by Dick Prather for 10 years, is praised as the most completely equipped shop in the San Joaquin Valley. It services pumps from Layne Bowler and Jacuzzi, sinks pumps to great depths, staffs up to 16 during peak season and about nine in slump periods, and is noted for major irrigation equipment repairs with its giant lathes.
