I got the single pitman Steel King from New Brunswick all together and up in the barn. I also reproduced a double pitman Steel King from Paul's (wind-fab) original. Paul got all the parts recast and I machined them and put it together. It ended up being a lot of work and quite costly. It has the 9 foot wheel that came from New Brunswick. The double pitman was available with an 8 or 9 foot wheel.

That braided wire tower is similar to a Stover.
