    Is Aermotor The Official Name For This Type Of Windmill?

    I Have A Passion Too!

    Thanks

  • Our neighbor in California had one of these. I remember being about 10 years old when she asked me to turn it off. I'd done it several times; The chain went up top to turn it off. The wooden lever came up under my chin and just about knocked me out.  I didn't get it pushed all the way down.

  • @donarms1974 I'm not even sure, I'd have to ask. The windmill at my grandparent's place was damaged by high winds, and is now chained to prevent movement. It's rather hard to explain since I don't know the technical terms, but the support ring that held the blades has broken, leaving a semi collapsed windmill that I'd love to see in working order again.

  • MY GRANDPA IS AWESOME!!

  • @TehCho what size? Maybe I can help. Dad had a small used aermotor company. I still have most of the equipment to repair and some parts.

  • @partyanimal231 Look for "Bosman molentje". They're a bit smaller than Aermotors. Alternatively, Bakker in IJlst still produces their "Record" windpump. Both are produced in the Netherlands, so a bit closer to home. Might save you some postage and packaging costs.

  • I would like to set a same business in nova-scotia, Canada

  • because sometimes behind the wing is bent at 90 degrees??

  • @OzzInter jmjkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

  • I live in CO and saw a new electric wind generator in a man's yard and it wasn't turning, but his neighbor had an old rust windmill in his field and it was turning like crazy.
