On Facebook windmill Restoration Group, someone inquired as to worth of "windmill" that came with their property.

Doesn't look like anything I'm familiar with: wheel like a water pumper, but set up to make electricity, with an artsy-cutesy "feather" tail vane.

I'm stumped, any ideas? lol :-)

I think it was built to be a Wincharger. Looks kinda like some I've seen in the Windcharger thread. You might post it in that thread and Mike down in Austin could tell you if it is a true Windcharger.

Does appear to be homemade. Can you get some close up pics? Maybe it’s a hybrid.
