I don't believe there was a brake on the original 1891 model only when the improved 95 came out as far as I know.
Re: 1890's Dandy windill
I have 2 pre-95 models, both have brakes. In 95 they put the flange on the gears me thinks.
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.

Re: 1890's Dandy windill
Bob can you send a pic cause my litterateur shows no brake my 95 the brake hits the hub.
Re: 1890's Dandy windill
The way I understand it, the pre95 brake was a complete circle that contacted the hub. The later rake only contacted the top and bottom of the hub. There is a full circle brake on the one I put up at the Village, it also has the small width gears.

Re: 1890's Dandy windill
Wayne i have two 95 and later they did come with a full circle and half circle brake. Bob the gear with the coller on it i believe was only on the irragator model i believe.This is a parts diagram of the 1891 dandy and I don't see a brake.Also the original dandy tailvane was rounded on the end like early monitor.

Here's a shot of the Dandy brake itself on the shaft. The hub is on the wheel, which is on the ground. I'll see if I can find that one.

Re: 1890's Dandy windill
Maybe you can see the hub here. It's as large as the brake.
