Vintage Windmill and Wind Generator Forum

Dempster used Poplar originally on some, I have used it with poor results, it breaks up in hail really bad and it rots out fast. If you don't go with Cypress there are better choices than Poplar.

Finding good cypress is a problem, I wish I would have bought $10k extra 25 years ago.

Late Happy Birthday!

Does anyone have measurements for a 12ft Original Star tail bone? Thanks

Happy Birthday!

I hope our friends in Lubbock are OK and of course the windmill collection, I just heard they got 109mph straight wind!

Hey Justin, your mailbox is full, I tried to call, Thanks

Who makes the most reasonable priced F702 Bearing kit? Thanks

I have seen posts saying they are open and some closed, some they moved, some they sold? Anyone know? Thanks

There were I believe 3 very different TIP TOP gear boxes, the rocker seems the most common to me. There was even a time when you could get a wood wheel on one, something you didn't see very often on a back geared mill.
