Hello from Tennessee

Post by 702Fan »

I brought home a complete, downed A-702 Aermotor head/fan from Kansas a couple days ago. With that came a “20 FT GIANT” tower with what appears to be an Aermotor mast. I will be posting pictures and asking for info as I rebuild and erect.
Thank you
Phil

Welcome to the forum. That is a nice tower. It doesn't appear to have an Aermotor stub tower section at the top. Might consider getting one so that the mast pipe is adequately secured.

Looking forward to seeing photos of the windmill.

Paul,
Where is a good place to get parts, new/used, for these mills? Aermotor Windmill prices are much higher than Windmill-Parts.

Dan B is a good source. See the bottom of my page for info.
Call Dan Benjamin for parts. P M me for the phone number. IF YOU TALK TO HIM, AND HE HELPS YOU, THEN BUY FROM HIM. IT CREATES GOOD KARMA.
