Thank you to all for visiting and enjoying Pond Lily Mill Restorations Home Page.
Pond Lily Mill Restorations is not a non-profit foundation or organization. Therefore, I cannot offer you a tax deduction, but you will have the eternal satisfaction that you are doing something for the pubic benefit. My business is driven by the economy, and people's desire to restore, and preserve old mill technology.
Theodore R. Hazen and Pond Lily Mill Restorations is providing access to these materials solely for educational and research purposes. It will help to ensure that this information is always free, and available to the public, and not become a member's only, or subscription site. This is why my web site is found on a public web site space, and not a commercial web site because its main purpose is for the common good. For this reason it does not always generate income.
If you enjoy my site, and would like to help me: there are a number of ways.
1. Send me future reference material which I can use in creating new web pages. Such as old milling journals (magazines), trade catalogs, and milling reference (text) books. I even will make use of photocopies of magazine articles, flour sacks, mill ledgers, photographs, postcards, tools, and artifacts.
2. Purchase an old mill, and hire me to either help in its restoration, or let me become the resident miller and millwright.
3. Make a purchase though Milling Books Exchange. Currently not available. Please check back, it will come back online very soon.
4. Hire one of my friends, that I would highly recommend which would more suited your particular needs because of their special background, skills and knowledge. I don't have an arrangement to receive a commission from them. I just don't want to see you get ripped off by a snake oil salesman. Yes, they are even out there lurking around old mills. I can always find plenty of mill work, the problem has always been, getting paid in a timely manor.
5. Send me a donation by cash, check, or money order. E-mail me, and I will send you my snail mailing address. I am sorry, I will not contemplate using online payment services. I have had problems with them in the past, and would never consider using them ever again.
Give yourself an early birthday present, and help support Pond Lily Mill Restorations. Pond Lily Mill Restorations donations make milling technology available to future generations that otherwise might be lost.
Thank you again, Theodore R. Hazen Pond Lily Mill Restorations. On the World Wide Web since April of 1996.
