Vintage Windmill and Wind Generator Forum

Thanks for clarifying that Michael i had that all screwed up. I have to reprogram my brain after my illness. LOL !!

Did some research and apparently Mr.Axtel started selling his windmills under the Flint and Walling name until around 1905 . I would venture to say that's a rare windmill. Nice Find !!!

Tailvane says Flint and Walling Axtel, never seen one before.

Very cool I say !!

Me and my brother went and picked this up today cause I was looking for one with a rear belt pulley to run my corn sheller and grinder and my buzz saw.

If you say the saddle bearing is still good you took out of the other mill i guess you could try some JB Weld to hold it in place just a skim coat. Your pitmans you can use bushings as some do on the forum. Snout bearing should be repoured. Good luck with everything.

Went to visit Tim today to look over what he had for parts to complete his mill. Had a good time and while there he took me to check this really cool Aermoter with a wood water tank. Pretty Cool !!

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

That's a model 1899 8ft.

Thanks again Gregg for taking the time to visit with me. It was a really nice talk and my pleasure i don't get to many real windmillers stopping by in this neck of the woods !!
