Hi everyone, I picked up this windmill in Saint John New Brunswick which was an 11hr drive from my place one way. It was found in a old barn and is missing a few parts but other then that it's in amazing condition. There were two wheels and one tail with it. One wheel is an eight footer for this mill which is the single pitman model. The other is a 9 footer which came off a double pitman model. Manufactured around 1898 for a short time.

A little more progress on The Steel King, I had to make a couple of new parts that were missing. I only had pictures and a parts list to go by. The pitman was quite a bit of work to make I'm glad it's done, now I can move forward and get it finished.
