AERO

Windmills have been produced in a cooperative effort between AERO Industries and Reuhl Products. A great KIT!

Limited to a production run of 50 with Red Screen Printing!

Yes only 50 of these windmills have been produced and Reuhl Products will NOT produce any more of these windmills in RED!

The special windmill was made in a collaborative project with AERO Industries and Reuhl Products.

Please note that AERO Industries and AERMOTOR Windmills are two separate companies.

 

A little bit about AERMOTOR WINDMILLS:

“Aermotor Windmills started in 1888. Since that time, there have been few changes in the windmills design, of the workhorse we know as Aermotor. Harnessing the wind to pump water, enabled the pioneers to settle land where surface water was non-existent. Today, the Aermotor windmills still produce water for livestock throughout the country and many parts of the world.

Today windmills are sold all over the country. Many people have returned to windmills as an alternative energy source for keeping water available for crops and livestock, as well as keeping ponds full. The wind is free, and the windmills operate very efficiently. The maintenance needed by windmills is very minimal, and as long as they are maintained, the windmill pumps water without much attention needed.”

WALL SHIELDS

Also called TRENCH BOXES

These were limited to only 250 pieces in each color.  They make great conversations with friends.

Trench digging is one of the oldest types of construction work documented in history. Prior to World War II, trenches were dug by hand. As workers dug trenches deeper, the sides of the trench had to be shored, or supported, to keep the walls of the trench from collapsing. Following the war, innovations were made in cable backhoes, and trench digging disappeared as an established profession. By the 1950's, hydraulically-actuated backhoes were developed, making it possible to rapidly dig very deep trenches. As a result of backhoe innovations, and because there were no workers inside the trenches during digging, trench walls were no longer shored.

All trenches have what is known as a stand-up time. The stand-up time is the time that elapses from the time the trench is dug until the trench walls start collapsing. Stand-up time is dependent on many factors, including soil type, water content, trench depth, weather conditions, and whether or not the soil has been previously disturbed. Stand-up times can be as short as zero seconds or as long as several months, and are difficult to predict. Before trenches are dug, someone can take soil samples as a means of estimating stand-up time; however, soil conditions can be dramatically disparate only a few feet from where the soil sample was taken.

After a trench is dug, workers go down into the trench, performing whatever work is necessary, such as laying pipe or telephone lines, welding pipe, or installing valves.

If the walls of the trench are not supported, there is the possibility that the walls will collapse and trap the workers in the trench. Historically, there have been between 100 and 300 people killed in the United States every year due to trench collapses.

(Information for the previous story was obtained from http://ethics.tamu.edu/ethics/trench/trench.htm and is a part of Texas A&M studies.)

Wall shields have played an incredibly vital role in protecting workers who risk their lives on a daily basis. These wall shields have advanced dramatically from simple wooden structures to enormous steel shields and massive columnar like cross members to ensure their strength. The wall shield design is unique to the operation it performs. The wall shield illustrated on the right  is typical of a trench shield where workers would work in an area the size of the trench shield. In others the cross members would actually be higher (high clearance shield). In these high clearance shields workers can easily pass underneath the cross members and move along a much longer trench in safety. Yet another type of wall shield resembles a box with 4 enclosed sides. Many types of shields can be linked together and/or stacked to allow a larger work area or deeper trench.

STAHMER

Stahmer Farm Equipment

1948 Stahmer Diamondrag Harrow

The Stahmer Farm Equipment company was located in Chicago, Illinois in the late 1940's.  

During the 1948 year, Stahmer produced a: Farm Wagon; Fertilizer Spreader; 4-in-1 Wagon Bed with Grain Box Sides; Utility Trailer and the Diamondrag Harrow...

We do not really have much more data on the actual company...so if you do, please contact us!

This unit has been made so it fits two different scales:  1/20th and 1/16th 

In these two scales, it represents the following dimensions:

1/20th scale - 20 foot drag

1/16th scale - 16 foot drag

 

This unit fits perfectly behind the Massey-Harris 44 by Reuhl Products.

It measures an impressive 12" x 12"

Note:  This unique drag does not flex as a chain-link drag section rather the diamondrag sections are RIGID...
