Can someone identify the manufacturer of this wheel? It has unique wheel clips.
Thanks,
Gregg

I don't have anything that resembles that laying around. Challenge had ribs in the sails way out by the outer edge though.

I've had 3 Dandys, and not yet seen a wheel like that. Sure would be nice if it was a Challenge.

I have a Dandy wheel not like that but seems I have seen that around my place. Getting ready to leave on a two week trip so can't check until I get back.

So, Windcatcher Dan are you saying this wheel would have been for the original Dandys 1891-1894?
I was beginning to think I had a really rare item when it had gone 3 weeks without a response. Do you have a picture of the mill that it would have been on?
Thanks,
Gregg
