Tower Windmill is built in steampunk style around its inspiration, the Chesterton Windmill, a cylindrical stone tower mill from 17th century England that still retains parts of its original mechanism. The sails, angled for aerodynamic effect, can either spin quickly to create wind or be driven by an external fan to show how a real windmill works. Power comes from a removable rubber band motor that drives the sails through a screw conveyor and a plywood chain drive, and once the motor is removed the mechanism can be run by hand to study it in detail. A double planetary gear reducer with differently shaped gears provides the right speed.

The model is built from laser cut plywood without glue in twelve to fifteen hours and lands at 585 parts with an advanced difficulty rating, making it one of the most substantial models in the range. The rotating tower resembles a spiral staircase and is a central part of the screw conveyor. The model ships with figures of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza as a decorative nod to Spanish literature. Tower Windmill is sold standalone and shares no parts with other UG articles.
