Re: Windmill parts - delivery to the 2024 Trade Fair

We're looking for a tailbone and vane for a 6' Fairbury. Cheryl had mentioned it to the Diedrichsens when we were in Pleasanton last year and Lisa said she thought they had one. If so, bring it to the Trade Fair and we'll pick it up. Thanks guys. Looking forward to seeing everyone again.
