I crunched the numbers on the prior owner. Unless he is one of those identified by DOGE still on the SS rolls, he probably isnt talking...

Thanks for the pics of your tailvane Larry !! It's ruled out two mills the model 98 and 99. Without a close up of the gear box can't tell if it's a 03 model or a RA. The 03 model is very similar to the 99 but is more heavy duty and has replaceable babbit bearings. The RA model has replaceable Arms. Either way Very cool mills !

Ron the previous owner is long gone but he moved here in 1929 and told me the windmill was here then as the
old barn that the beams are pegged together
