Sparhawk Mill

This mill runs 3 old generators to make slightly more electricity than it uses per a year.


It has a 9 foot thick dam of cement with fish ladder.



A pipe with the diameter of 6ft takes in water and feeds it into the mill.




In July and August the mill provides almost no power. When it does the grates below are completely in place, as the generators when operating attract electric eels.



2 bakery's occupy the ground level, the power generation is right below. The exhaust from ovens is piped through the closet next to my dads office.



The highest floor is unoccupied. The elevator is not functioning, but I would never change a thing about this building.



In the lawn behind the building rest the supplies. Cables and pipes are kept at hand as the generators need constant tuning.



This is a feed pipe to a generator, these are moved with a fork lift. Parts are lowered into place through the removable floor in the bakery.
