Aeromotor

Have a part you can't identify? Did your parts get mixed up in the shop? Curious if that chunk of metal is a part you should keep? Not sure what kind of windmill or tower you have? Post photos of the mystery object here for the community to help identify.

I was thinking they made a 13 or 14’ stub tower because I have my A702 on one. Perfect height for my small collection with no trees. I can get my tractor bucket to about platform height for tools, etc.

It is far from a true blue 702. That is a FIASA vane, hub and wheel is Chicago era and the tower is FIASA era.

The "tower" is just the top 13' 8 5/8" section of a standard 4 post 27, 40 or 53 tower.

Is an Aer o motor, an Aermotor that is in Oklahoma?

Yes Aermotor was in Broken Bow but after some of those parts were made.

No, your hub and wheel is older than 1964, tower section is newer.

I would guess the stamp on the hoop is from a rebuilder.
