Windmills and water mills are truly the wonders of anearlier era, the wooden technology of yesteryear.
To us, they may be graceful and charming relics. To the
colonists, however, they were a vital necessity. Colonial
craftsmen constructed them to mill grain, saw wood, pump
water, and do various other jobs. Furthermore, the mill was
the gathering place for the villagers. While they waited for
their grain to be milled, the villagers exchanged news and
gossip and stories. Millers were well respected not only for
their mill s output but also for their own weather forecasts,
knowledge of engines and machines, and, of course,
up-to-date news.
Long Island is an ideal place for catching the steady wind
from the ocean and bays: 125 miles long, narrow only
20 miles across at its widest, and relatively flat. Thus, many
windmills were built here and still exist here, particularly
at the island s east end. As a matter of fact, the south fork
of eastern Long Island contains the greatest number of
surviving windmills in the United States. Before 1700,
Long Island also had many water mills, some of them
powered by the tide."

Pretty good, especially for this price point.
Color: Beige, Size: 21.5"- 1 Panel
This is merely a piece of cloth stretched between the frame borders, but it works perfectly. It arrived quickly, all parts present and in good condition. I didn't put the castors on, as it will be more or less always in one position. I simply attached some felt sliders on the bottom to prevent scratching the floor and to allow clearance for the center screw (which is not flush fit). Overall, a reasonable deal for the price point.

Wonderful Room Partition !
Color: Black, Size: 88"- 4 Panel
This product is made very well, packaged, and assembled with no problems. All parts and tools are included (except a Phillips screwdriver.) I put this item all together by myself on a bed to make it easy and simple. I made sure that every screw head was attached where the recessed dimples are located on the vertical poles, just don't overtighten anything. Everything fits like a charm, good quality, looks great, perfect height, rolls with ease, proper privacy, really impressive ! I got the 4-panel in black color. I would certainly buy this item again ! Thank you !
