Finally have the dempster gearbox back together. Need to reroll sails and few minor details and should be ready to put up. This was my wife's grandfather's windmill and was sold in an estate sale back in the 70s. I was able to track it down and obtain it for her. The mill had went through a tornado and was blown out of its tower suffering major damage so it won't be 100 percent original

My limit is becoming the ability to get them in the Air. It seems it its either too hot or too wet. Don't know if that would be true for all or I'm just telling myself that> Can't seem to get motivated!
