My 3D Sketchup model of Windmill De Nieuwe Palmboom (The New Palmtree) which demonstrates how a windmill works. You can download the model here:

De Nieuwe Palmboom is a corn/gristmill built in 1781, it burned down in 1901 and was rebuilt in 1992. It is one of the biggest windmills in the world. In the 19th century there were 20 windmills like this one in Schiedam, now only 6 remain. Nowadays the windmill functions as a musuem. So if the model doesn't satisfy your needs, you can visit the real thing :P !
