Wheel make and model?

Have a part you can't identify? Did your parts get mixed up in the shop? Curious if that chunk of metal is a part you should keep? Not sure what kind of windmill or tower you have? Post photos of the mystery object here for the community to help identify.

One Aermotor wheel has single rivets, that would be before the 702 or late 602. The double rivet could be late 602 but definitely 702. The last photo is probably a 10 ft wheel. The single rivet Aermotor wheel is probably an 8 ft.

The single rivet Aermotor sections (1932 or before) are for a 10 footer (36 1/2" sails) The double rivet Aermotor sections (1933 or later) are for a 12 footer (44" sails) The Samson or Ideal Steel sails are 40 1/2" long so they were probably for a 10 foot wheel...
