Vintage Windmill and Wind Generator Forum

John Thanks but the pleasure was mine. You did a great job and now I want to thank you for saving one more icon.!!

Looks good to me Mark.One step closer to the end of the tunnel !

Don't know if this will help!!

Way to much on your plate Mark. You need a bigger plate !!

When you make your V arms what you can do is thread the ends a little deeper and use two nuts one under the outer wheel ring and then the one on top so you don't have to try to make the nub the wheel ring sits on.

Welcome to the forum Kevin. If you're only going to enjoy watching your mill spin you don't need to put the large gears in the gear box.

At first I thought maybe they somehow forgot to put the oil collector in place. But now you say it won't go in it sounds like they didn't forget they just didn't CARE.

My advice is bring it back to the "PROFESSIONAL" and tell him you want it fixed right.

I need the wheel arms for a model 1905 Fairbanks Morse 10ft or one so I can try to make the rest. Not sure if the 1893 model or newer are the same. Thanks Dan!!

I think that would help Bob I'm trying to find my parts list i believe the only changes that I remember was the pitman, the weight,gear covers, maybe bearings.
