it's an 8' wheel with a cast iron head...the vane by itself is a struggle to handle...    Image
I'm sure you already know you'll need very solid ground and a very calm day...... Image  
I have used a telescoping boom lift for football stadium light fixture maintenance.
I ended up sinking the tires of that 60 foot "Sun Belt" lift into wet ground that was hidden beneath what looked like solid ground on the surface.
The High School was very understanding and they used their janitors, coaches and the football players to repair the ruts after I was done.
I imagine  you'll be trying to "dock" some sort of slip fit / drop in  arrangement where the fan unit pivots atop the tower...?

Good to know, albeit, you do live in the 'not quite rain forest'... Image  

I just had the driveway asphalted which runs within 10' of the tower...so hoping this fall as I still need the graphics on the vane...

Image

Oh yeah, there's a 2" x 30" threaded pipe screwed into the bottom of the head which goes through a casting at the top and is stabilized with another 2' down....

Here's the bushings I had to machine due to wear in the castings that will keep the thrust bearing from slopping about...

The thrust bearing is inverted with the tower cap sitting on it...

You do know windmills cause cancer and drives whales crazy don't ya?

If it ain't fossil fueled it useless to the energy czar's profits.

Does anybody have an electric boat there?  It could attract sharks inland..

About all a guy can do...the machine's 90-110 years old...obviously no parts available other than the main bearings and vane springs...and my foundry's still in the 'thought about only for a moment' stage...  :ninja:   :clap:    :die:

I doubt mine will cause cancer, unless I were to put my hands in the oil sump repeatedly for a decade or so...it could, however, cause death if installation goes afoul....

Well that ain't too good for Trump's concern.. Seriously ROG.. We need to grow our own fuel.  Farmers should be behind it. They could put the drill baby drill burn baby burn profiteers in check.  I need to figure out why we haven't pursued it.

Biden unleashed Fracking for LNG after COVID.  Plans were for 50 GT a year production in the coming years. He did pause it at 28GT by executive order after everyone had done the engineering for the scale up and Jennifer Graholm reminded him of the Carbon Foortprint. we were at 12 GT a year prior to COVID. My employer has 3 Billion in contracts to get the gas down to -240 deg f liquid. I am privy to Global Town Halls and see the imagery of the biz.

these can support enough energy to power a city of 15k...small enough to build offsite and semitrailered to site for installation...expandable and 'supposedly' safe...

You cannot betray me - only yourself, to me.
