How long since you used one

[joeysmith]

Needed this today for an old windmill a neighbor wants to try an get going
Not sure when the last time this one was used
Board was rotted out so had to slap something on there

Myself and another guy used one to get a windmill operational about five years ago. We replaced all the cups in it and got the whole thing working so his cows could get water.
He has since installed a solar system.

Always wondered how you gripped the pipe to pull it.
Thanks

There's a well company near me that does a lot of windmill service. Buying, selling, repairing and installing towers and heads. They usually have several towers in the yard being prepared to be put into service.
