Re: Windmill and tree maintenance

I can look around and see what sizes I have. I doubt I have any that could be used for lumber. They aren't that big around. If I find any We could probably make a deal. I'd never miss them if a few were gone.

Re: Windmill Co wrench

I'd also wonder about the wrench being connected to the Samson tractor. Stover made Samson windmills and gas engines, buy all I can find the gas engines were tagged with the Stover name.

Re: Windmill and tree maintenance

Good you have somebody. I contacted a guy that said he did tree trimming to come cut my low hanging Mesquite tree limbs. I guess he doesn't like Mesquite thorns, he never showed up. I'm looking to buy me a battery powered chain saw and do it myself.

Re: Baker Monitor L vaneless blades

Some people today are using Poplar because of it being hard to get Cypress. Home Depot and Lowes sale a 1/4 X 6 X 48 of Poplar that I have made blades out of. You can get 2 blades from each piece. Just need to make you a jig for a table saw. Doesn't take long to cut what you need.

Re: First steel Aermoter tower

I found an old Aermotor tower with the pegs on property my Great Grandpa bought in 1900. I figure my Grandma drank water from that well. Tried to make contact and buy it but never got any response.

We are ahead of you for harvesting time. We had growing hat fields and tasseling corm in the past. Another smell I like is fresh plowed ground.

Re: The simple life

All our hay fields have been turned into hay bales and they are cutting the corn. WE get the dust from the combining. Not the same.
