My new Flagpole
« on: July 01, 2007, 11:53:49 PM »
Happy Canada Day, to all the Canadians reading the board.





I raised my mindmill tower for the first time yesterday, after a troublesome try last week.  This time things went very smoothly, and I did some practice runs up and down, just to be sure.


After some adjustment, it stands straight and vertical.  I have but a few tweaks to make on the tail before the whole kit can be placed on top!


I'm so excited!

No one believes the theory except the one who developed it. Everyone believes the experiment except the one who ran it.
