Baker Model C

Post by randallbostick »

I just came into a Baker Model C Hambone with perfect tower. The fan and hub are trashed. Are there parts available for these? Also if anyone has any pointers or advice it is greatly appreciated. I was given this mill for scrap price, $20.

You might try Steve Adams in Granbury for parts.

It's amazing that those aircraft carrier boat anchors are still around. Many are here in my area also. Bakers first self oiling windmill, model S (for self oiling) sizes B, C, and D. C would be 8 footers. Parts should be available in many places. I have never seen a 10 footer, but almost got one from Randy in Nebraska years ago. Both shafts that screw into the gears are threaded CCW. Remember that, or you will never get it apart. LOL
Almost forgot to mention, they were on the market from 1924 to 1936.
Call Dan Benjamin for parts. P M me for the phone number. IF YOU TALK TO HIM, AND HE HELPS YOU, THEN BUY FROM HIM. IT CREATES GOOD KARMA.
