18' Stover Samson Wheel. 8 sail sections, 5 sails per section. Missing 2 sails. Some sails need straightening, a few sail clips are cracked or broken. Asking $700. Will consider trades for windmill or windmill parts.

That wheel has some AirFlow characteristics to it, but I’ve never seen an AirFlow that large. Topper had some blades like that.

Paul , now I understand why you were looking at the HUGE tail at the Trade Fair in September , the soil is fertile in Okla as your windmill farm keeps getting larger and larger ,

My 14 footer has rectangular sails. Don't know what size mill they changed them from triangular to rectangular.

I believe the 18' at Shattuck has 'conventional' tapered sails.

I wonder if Stover started using rectangular sails in the later years, maybe when they began producing the AirFlow?

From what I read the Samson model S made the larger mills 14 to 20ft maybe those mills had rectangular sails ?
