Thank you for showing another Dempster, it always brings back memories of my grandpa and that all he would have is Dempster's until 2000 when my uncle switched to aeromotor and solar. I remember him assembling the wheel and changing the oil. He passed in 04 and I sure do miss him. This will help me when I find my own Dempster, again, thank you. Sorry it's a little winded (no pun intended)😅.
Man glad you like it. Yep you can do it! These mills are amazing and bring back a lot of memories for me as well. Thank you for watching and commenting! Have a great day!
I'm guessing Jacob shouting you out helped. He said you were hoping for 100 subs, I think you're over 4500 today. Congratulations, I am super excited to watch all your videos and learn about windmilling. Neat stuff, thank you and best of luck out in this CZcams world!!
Oh he more than helped!! I will never be able to replay him. I never would have gotten here on my own, because people don’t just look up windmiller on CZcams, never would have happened…….thank you for coming along as well!
We watch you fix windmills on you tube we'd like to see one pump before you leave your channel enjoy your show keep more videos coming they're very interesting
Haha I hear you! That’s the only bad thing about windmills, the stinkin wind needs to be blowing, and in the summer the wind doesn’t do much, lol. Thank you for watching, please don’t run off, the video im working on now had water flowing!!!!! 😀
@@OkieWindmiller my husband watched another windmill show and they didn't explain anything they just fixed it we love your videos and will most definitely keep watching your videos it makes them worth watch when you explain what your doing step by step makes the videos worth watching and we love that your wife goes and helps you too that's awesome forever loyal fans
I work for a power utility for 37 years. Been hit twice by lineman dropping shit down off the top of the power pole. My advice is whenever you’re up on that tower “Mama” should be wearing a hardhat. Unless you’re looking for a new mama. It’s not If you might drop something, it’s when. Great video, I knew nothing about windmills till I found yours channel. 👍👍
Man we hear ya! But think the same thing but don’t like her bun up in it……I tell her to stay away while I’m up there but did notice she was under me when I was up on the platform….😡. I will remind her! Thank you for watching and for the comment!!!
Thank you sooo much! That made our day! It’s not always bright and sunny, but boy do we try! Been married 24 years, so we do pretty good together! Thank you for watching!!!
G,day sir!!! Man amazing you can see us waaaaay down under! Yeah I bet there are! Big ones around here are 10’, but I did install a 20’ close to here. It’s mostly for looks tho! Thank you for watching me and mama!!!!! Cheers Mate!!!!!
Another milestone for you, Shane -- best video so far! I've been waiting to see how that brake mechanism works and you did a perfect job of explaining and showing it. I'm gathering questions faster than you want to hear them, but I really appreciate the effort you put into filming and editing these. Thank you! Would you mind a couple of tips? 1) You do a LOT of hand wrenching but a battery powered tool would be awkward with so many different size nuts. Have you looked a ratcheting end wrenches? 2) You're right about oil attracting dirt, but those metal surfaces need lubrication. Have you looked a dry film lube like PTFE? Note that plain WD 40 is not a lubricant. Keep up the good work -- we're learning a lot here!
Thank you!!!! We’re sure trying!!!! I have some but they don’t last long, like they strip internally and don’t ratchet very long. Guess mama is putting too much torque on them! We have tried that(collectively amongst fellow windmillers) and it doesn’t creep where it needs to be. I have 2 cans on the truck for surfaces that are exposed and can be sprayed, but hinges and little tight spots, our go to it wd40 or chain and cable lube, which kind of moves around but also do t go very deep. We have tried everything on the market! Thank you for watching this one! Thank you for the comments also!!!
We will add that soon. I have been told tho, that the camera needs to move every 4 seconds, or people loose interest. We’re learning and listening to every comment and trying to implement. Thank you for watching and commenting!!!!!
Good job. I'm trying to keep my windmill original by using the square nuts. Although makes it slow for the assembly and disassembly. I love the look and sounds of the old windmills. Thank you for the videos.
Thank you!! We’re sure trying! This is new to us. Yes square head bolts are great, but most of the mills I deal with have been swamped to hex somewhere along the way. Thank you for taking the time to watch!!!!!
lol because she normally does! For some reason I always have to make the sound effect of whatever it is I’m describing. Good catch! Thank you for watching!!!
love watching these pieces of equipment being repaired and installed. I would like to ask that Hardhat for your ground person so OSHA does not come unannounced . Enjoy the videos
We have 2 actually! She normally stays well away when I’m up there, just in case I or the wind doesn’t knock something off. She was looking back at the video and was like, wow, I was really under you when you were up there!! We love working on these old things and keeping the past alive. Thank you very much for watching and commenting!!!
LOTS of improvements, by the week! Yeah, we're all a bit mechanical. But, I sure will feel better if "Momma", would never walk near the tower with her eyes towards the ground! There's nothing up there you want to bounce off you, even the spring that got left up there last time! Peace.
Man thank you! And I hear you. She normally never does, until then, and she didn’t even realize it till she watched the video, and said I was right under you! She kinda got in trouble, lol. Thank you for watching and commenting!!!!!!
Man this stuff is really cool! I noticed when you had set up the blades you poured in some oil for lubrication. Is there a particular oil that is used for that or is it a heavy oil or a synthetic? And your right without windmills I'm sure many people would not make it and would have died. Also I saw where you were assembling the blades do you have a sequence you follow once you're ready to tighten and make sure there isn't vibration or just whatever you decide at the time? I think you said everyone has a way they do things I was curious your particular method! Again you guys are awesome and I always am looking for the next video.
Howdy! So we use non-detergent 10wt oil. I get mine at Orellys. You could use thinner, but not anything thicker. For the blades, i like to loosely put it together, give it a good shake, and a few spins so everything finds its sweet spot, then start by tightening the outer rings, start with one, the work my way around from there. Then I move to the inner rings, then the hub. There will be no vibration since they really don’t spin very fast. Also, you could use nuts to balance the wheel if you needed to, but nobody does and I don’t know if they ever have. The wheel sections are pretty much an exact copy of the others dimensionally. Thank you for the question and comments! Oh, thank you sooo much for watching and enjoying our work!!!!
This was perfect timing. I just purchased a Dempster 10ft no 12. I only wish you would have video taped the rebuild on the engine. Maybe next time. You mentioned Mike did the rebuild does he document his builds?
Howdy! Yeah I’m sorry. When I take him one, he does it over the course of about a month, since he just does it in his spare time. Good idea tho! Where are you located?
FYI - From the WD-40 website - Myth: WD-40 Multi-Use Product is not really a lubricant. Fact: While the “W-D” in WD-40 stands for Water Displacement, WD-40 Multi-Use Product is a unique, special blend of lubricants. The product's formulation also contains anti-corrosion agents and ingredients for penetration, water displacement and soil removal.
@@OkieWindmilleras you continue to grow your channel you may consider a Gyro or Gimbal camera holder with another camera. Will help stability both still and moving to really make things look good. Yes some $$ but a good one will last and is a good investment in your video quality!
Yeah they are! I love crescent wrenches but man would love to get my hands on some old Amish square wrenches. Maybe not to use everyday, but just to have😁. Thank you for watching!!!!!
Some do, most don’t, they like the patina and mismatch. I prefer the patina, but I do agree, this one could have used a little to at least even out the color. Thank you for watching and commenting!!!!!
I had the same thought - especially for the windmills that are just used for nostalgia. Full repaint would not be necessary, but maybe a clear coat to help preserve the metal on every job would be nice. Lori could be providing that service while Shane is busy on other tasks.
I’m telling you I would love that! We may do that soon! We have yet to buy one, but would love to add that view! Thank you for watching and commenting!!!!!!!
with all the open spaces around you it should be easy to learn and get some practice before you start flying close to things. you'll still probably replace a few blades before your through 😊😊
Hi there I watch you fix the wind wheel I'm run in to a wind mill how u fix them.im start to learn how to look what the problem. With them.i repair wells my job I been doing this pump repair.for 18 years It was my uncle business .he teach me how to fix them.im still learning still it's Sk pump repair in safford.ariz hot come here hot but we don't have the wet air hear
True, hardly anybody used lock washers, I’m one of the few. I was wondering when someone would mention that because every time I do it, I’m thinking here come the comments 🤣. In my mind, it feels like I’m at least trying. I figure if I get them tight enough, the flat washer won’t spin either. I only do that on the dempsters with the slotted bolt locations. Good catch tho Sir!!! 😀. I don’t like using nylock nuts, so this is what I do. Thank you for watching sir and for commenting. Let me know what you would do different, I’m open for suggestions!
I know that the manual uses lock washers, but I don’t like lock washers on a slot, that also defeats the purpose in my mind, so the flat washer in my mind makes it better. Who knows ? Thank you sir again for watching.
Hey talking point for next video or if u think you can answer it in a comment . What u think of DIY setup building a smaller windmill my neighbor has a 20 foot well hand dug an i was thinking of doing one for a small pound for a couple ducks an maybe a couple coi fish... is there something small i can build thats not huge an can be made with some pullys or something. Looking for like 12 tall build to add that... wife thought was something like u see at a tractor supply as a decoration but make functional
Well they make a 4’ diameter(Ironman Windmills), and that would work good without being too big, and you won’t have to try to figure out the “how to make it pump”, and we still install 6’ windmills all the time. It could go on a 21’ tower and would look amazing. That’s the way I would go…….
@@OkieWindmiller I grew up in rural Australia with these everywhere and now I get to find out how they work and how to fix them. I will be paying more attention next time I'm near one
Man yeah! Buddy I hear that there aren’t many windmillers down there, might be a good business to get into. Or you could fly us down and I could teach ya everything I know😁
Does anyone ever put a counter weight with a section ofcable and a pulley attached to the rod (above the hand pump) to offset the weight of the sucker rod?
I have never seen it, but is a good idea! Kinda like those window sash weights. It would be very helpful for those that are set deeper than they should be with the size windmill they have. Thank you for watching!!!!!
@@OkieWindmiller LOL window sash weights... that statement makes you sound much older than you look...

Awesome! I guess they do have large cattle ranches and they need to water them. Could you stay busy working on windmills if you were to learn the trade?
