Woldzigt, Roderwolde

Woldzigt (Drèents for 'view of the woods') is a smock mill in Roderwolde, Drenthe, the Netherlands.

A Deutz petrol engine was installed in that year as auxiliary power.

The mill was then sold to the coöperatieve olieslagerij en korenmalerij Woldzigt G.A.

During this time the mill was used to produce cattle food and artificial fertiliser.

The four Common sails, which have a span of 22.00 metres (72 ft 2 in), are carried in a cast-iron windshaft, which was cast by Koning in 1904.

The brake wheel drives the wallower (48 cogs) at the top of the upright shaft.

At the bottom of the upright shaft the great spur wheel, which has 103 cogs, drives the 1.60 metres (5 ft 3 in) diameter French Burr millstones via a lantern pinion stone nut which has 24 staves.
