Vintage Windmill and Wind Generator Forum

Les & I hauled some mills home, complete with towers: 8.5' Eli, Challenge Steel, IXL, Currie-open gear, and an open gear Aermotor on a tipping tower. A fun couple of days.

Wow !! What a great find, those are some not to common mills. Same with the tipping tower. What model open gear Aermoter is it ?

Great aquisitions!

Linda & Les , love the overhead winch & crane , those tree limbs are mighty handy ! OH , and the trailer load of windmill stuff is great .

Wow, did all of those mills come from a collection?

WE need the trade Fair at your place next year and it could be a work day to put all that neat stuff back together.

Here's some pics of the Aermotor. There's a little modification, some welds, and lots of grease. You guys tell me what model it is.
Came from a small collection.
Wayne, if we had the trade fair at our place, it would have to cover a few months, not just a few days.

That's a model 1899 8ft.

Just noticed the number on the large gear that's one off a older mill i believe.

Ya Dan, I hadn't noticed that. I believe most are 4 hundred numbers.
