   The Baby windmill made its debut at the 1920 Perth Royal Agricultural Show. This mill is similar to the others made by this company in that it employed a wooden pitman arm. Instead of a rocker arm it used a metal slide guide for the wooden pump rod block.

   It appears to have been in production between 1920 and 1928.

    The Baby windmill at the Morawa Museum is complete and has been mounted on a short tower outside in the Museum yard.
