MdrnMrvls Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 This morning, I started messing around with a windmill design and ended up with this. I really like how it turned out and should go nicely with all the other farm stuff I'm building. Hope you like it! Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 Outstanding MM! I think it's so clever to have used the wagon wheel in the manner that you did. Quote
prateek Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 Nice farm windmill! I love that you used the tractor wheels as the mill Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 Now this is a windmill - we have thousands and thousands of these through out the great land of Oz. Love the wagon wheel trick - very nice. All the trims - very nice too ! Great design job there 'MdrnMrvls' (oh, do you mind if I use some of your ideas here from my country town eh ?) and I'm a conformist! ! Quote
MdrnMrvls Posted April 3, 2010 Author Posted April 3, 2010 Outstanding MM! I think it's so clever to have used the wagon wheel in the manner that you did. Thanks! I was going to use one of the those hexagonal (or octagonal) graded pieces with the four studs in the middle, but I couldn't seem to find one. The wheel worked out really well I guess. Nice farm windmill! I love that you used the tractor wheels as the mill There's also a steering wheel thrown in there as well. Now this is a windmill - we have thousands and thousands of these through out the great land of Oz.Love the wagon wheel trick - very nice. All the trims - very nice too ! Great design job there 'MdrnMrvls' (oh, do you mind if I use some of your ideas here from my country town eh ?) and I'm a conformist! ! Thanks a lot! Don't mind at all if you use it. Quote
dr_spock Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 Very nice windmill design. Is it used for pumping up underground water? Quote

BlueBard Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 Great! Really clever desing, especially on using that wheel there Quote

jonwil Posted April 4, 2010 Posted April 4, 2010 Nice, if I ever build the MOC I have in mind of my uncles outback Sheep Station, I will be building something like this :) Quote
MdrnMrvls Posted April 5, 2010 Author Posted April 5, 2010 Good to hear! I'm glad I was of some help. Quote
