Not sure if this would be any use to anyone. Found it this morning in an Email I received:
$12.00 http://www.lehmans.com/store/Dealcember_Deals___Toy_Windmill___540043?Args= Merry Christmas no gain, posted for the hobby’s sake cale
I sure won’t show the Wifey that web site…
Picked up my version of that from a CT Farm & Fleet years ago on clearance while on a business trip to Mexico Missouri for $8. The folks looking at x-ray that day had a good chuckle.

editted to correct store…
Adding that Lehman’s can be a bad place to shop … My wife agree’s that she could drop a fortune on canning supplies alone…
I have one similar. Works well.

$12 isn’t bad. They usually run closer to $19
Lehman’s non-electric catalog is a great ‘wish book’, too.
$12 is a good deal. Mik’s experience is mine: $19 - 20.00.
Now, get one and keep your sanity putting the lil’ bolts and nuts on with big fingers and needle nose pliers. I have four of them running on our layout — all attest to dedication in assembly!
so how do they look with 1:22.5 and 1:24? Not sure if track will ever lay again, but may need one anyways!
since moving to the farm I spend a great deal looking at the Lehmans book too!
Had ordered some Deitz lanterns a few weeks ago; canceled-out of stock till Summer?

BTW I used to sell them, IIRC they were about $12 wholesale - unless you bought a case of them.
They are great and look fine with 1:22 and 1:24 stuff. Dont forget windmills come in all different sizes Cal. We have a lot of these old windmills on farms and abondon fields in my area. Those are all different sizes.
Cal no excuse for not laying some track down. All you need is a small layout to have fun. Keep it simple and small so it does not become a burden.
no excuses-the new almost 4 week old addition stepped over all other hobbies

Congrates!!
It’s funny…ya spend the first 2 years teaching them to walk and talk…and the next 14 years telling them to sit down and shut up…
Congratualtions on the roster addition Cale! She’s a beaut!
Chas

C. Nelson said:Excuses, excuses... till you get done procrastinating she'll be old enough the help with the gardening, anyway. :P

Congratulations, Cale.
Four more and you’ll be in the lead

Congratulation’s Cale
Congrats Cal. Still no excuse. Put the little one in a backpack and get some track down.
Aw Cale! So cute. Enjoy her.
