Had a nice day last January to install this windmill. It’s an A702 on 50′ unknown make tower. Tower was lowered, new diagonal braces added on bottom 15′, 3′ stub installed, moved 25 miles, and re-erected near Potomac, IL.

Had the pleasure of installing a nice vintage Aermotor A702 x 33 for Mike Wolfe of American Picker fame. Nice guy! Other than the heavy rain and bolders in the ground, it was a fun day!
