Vintage Windmill and Wind Generator Forum

that kind of thinking makes my head hurt ,

Mike apparently that theory about the wind blowing at a angle is wrong. Scientist now say the wind doesn't blow at all it stays still. The world spins into it. !!!

How do they account for the different directions. The world only spins in one direction.

Good job. I thought it was they thought the tilted wheel would better catch the wind.

The WG windmill has a much more tilted wheel than the Monitor.

Exactly Bob, and did you know that Rocks aren't really Hard they just TENSE up when you grab them, Yuck, Yuck!!!

Wow that's a good one!

OH , my aching head .........

Where did you get the pattern for the sail and the tail? I have an old WB that was so shot that none of the original sails or tail or intact enough to even create a partial pattern.

Let me know, please.

Oh yeah! your windmill looks great!
