See every movement travel through the machine

Switch it on and watch motion pass through the exposed gears, belts, shafts and flywheels before reaching the four rotating sails. Because the transmission remains visible, every rotation reveals how the complete mechanism works as one connected system.

A full-scale mechanical challenge

Build the windmill through approximately eight hours of focused assembly, fastening the gears, linkages, transmission components and wooden base into a working kinetic model. The illustrated manual and essential assembly tools are included, with no glue or soldering required.

Built to keep moving after the build is done

Standing 11.81 inches tall and weighing approximately 2.24 pounds, the completed windmill has the scale and stability of a true mechanical centerpiece. USB power keeps the mechanism in motion on a desk, shelf or workshop display without relying on natural wind.

OUR BELIEF

Every screw. A new turn.

A screw may seem small on its own. But with every turn, separate pieces begin to connect—and something remarkable starts to take shape.

Piece by piece. Turn by turn. Build what comes next.

Customer video review of The Inventor's Windmill

Great model and fun to put together. I did have a few issues though. I needed a Motor replacement and the customer service crew handled it nicely and shipped a replacement. I also had a little trouble with the arm (P-12) working properly but I added a few extra parts and it worked fine. That is part of the fun in building these figuring out problems when they arise. All in all, I highly recommend it.

Building with my son has been a very enjoyable process. Because of our schedules we have not finished our project but we are excited to do so a display it on his desk at his office.

I got it mostly put together but I am having problems getting it to run smoothly when I turn it on. One of the nuts around the pig gear is loose so the gear doesn't turn. I hope I can get it working. I didn't know how tightly to turn the nuts during the assembly.

Store owner replied: Hi Greg, thank you for your feedback! We’re sorry you’re having trouble getting your windmill running smoothly. Our customer support team has already reached out to help troubleshoot the gear issue. Please check your inbox—we’ll be happy to help you get it working properly!

Great product! Received as promised and the kit was excellently. Which there would be more kits like this one available would purchased immediately.

Questions before you begin?

Is The Inventor’s Windmill designed for beginners?

Its larger mechanical structure and numerous interconnected components make it better suited to experienced builders or patient beginners seeking a substantial project.

Does the finished windmill include moving mechanical parts?

The design centres on visible gears and a windmill mechanism, allowing the completed model to demonstrate its engineering-inspired construction.

How much display space does the windmill need?

It is a statement display piece rather than a compact desk model. Check the finished dimensions on the product page before choosing its location.
