• Built the windmill about 35 years ago at another place we used to live, it had a feed grinder in the bottom.
  The top rotated to point into the wind, worked pretty well until a storm tore the blades off it.
  Just one of those things i always wanted to build.

• Thanks fellers and neat pictures Nick keep them coming. 
  
  As i look back at building the windmill i wonder how we accomplished some of the stuff we made, i used a rear end from a truck for the main shaft ran a drive shaft off that to another gear box that changed direction so i could run a flat belt too the burr mill.
  How we got all that stuff up there is beyond me let alone building the structure that turns around, couldn`t do it now thats for sure.
