Congratulations! You're wife must be very happy that you've gone thru all of this effort for her. Reconnecting with a something that was lost to an estate sale, and also managed to survive a tornado with enough intact parts to revive, is really special.Smax wrote: Thu Jun 20, 2019 6:28 pm This was my wife's grandfather's windmill and was sold in an estate sale back in the 70s. I was able to track it down and obtain it for her. The mill had went through a tornado and was blown out of its tower suffering major damage so it won't be 100 percent original

Thanks Paul . she and her mother were very emotional when they saw it up for the first time after restoring it. I was lucky to have been able to track it down and get it for them. Their reaction made it all worth it.

Yes almost perfect. This time of year the weather can be extreme in Oklahoma usually too wet or cold.
