Description
Ready to pump; just add wind. I spotted this beautiful vintage New Ideal Brantford Powermill windmill on the grounds at the Roosevelt County Fairgrounds, Portales, NM. The Canadian manufactured "New Ideal" for ease of build and maintenance. The windmill featured a self oiling motor and emergency shutdown to protect the windmill in case of chain breakage during a storm. The "New Ideal" was manufactured, sold and exported by Goold, Shapely, & Muir Co., with locations in Brantford, Winnipeg, and Calgary. "New Ideal" Power Mills(Canada) harnessed wind power on Canadian farms and homesteads across the American Great Plains.
