Ornamental "No Rust" Windmills
 ✖  |
"They're nice for the farmer who wants the look of the old windmill, but not the price," says Joel Johnson, Accessible Systems, Inc., Johnson City, Tenn., about his company's new decorative, non-pumping, aluminum windmills for yards and gardens.
The company offers models that range from 6 to 30 ft. high. The 6-ft. dia. model has a 24-in. dia. fan while the 30-ft. high model has a 6-ft. dia. fan.
"They're made entirely from aluminum and stainless steel so they'll never rust," says Johnson. "They cost a lot less than a used real model. Also, pumping windmills are built a lot heavier so they're more difficult to handle. The fans on our windmills simply freewheel so there's not as much wind stress on them. A 6-ft. model sells for $139 while a 30-ft. model sells for $1,099.
