These types of windmills are found all over the land of the Netherlands, including my hometown. This model is inspired by different windmills, and not a direct copy/replicant of one windmill. I took aspects that I liked and combined them into this model, adding a lot of colors to make it pop even more.Windmills like this were used for all types of tasks, like pumping water out of low regions, sawing wood, grinding flour, and many others.The optional wind flaps allow for the windmill to actually spin in the wind when placed outside, just like the real deal! Unfortunately this model is not made to stay outdoors through out the year, because of the material. The small red/green wheel on the back of mill was used to turn the windmill into the wind. On this model the top can be rotated, but the wheel on this model is not functional. Any issues or feedback is much appreciated!For everyone that downloaded the print profile before 14-10-2024 (16:45 EST):Some parts were missing in the old print
