When this customer purchased the machine, did he buy only the swinging part of the tower? Is it possible that Aermotor would sell only "half" of a tower? Burt

My Aermotor Wood tilting tower. I saw the patent pictures for the real one. Decided I'd make one for my toy windmill.

In the Windmiller's Gazette of Winter 1997 and Summer 1994 there are pictures and stories about tilting towers.
