__TOC__
A sail is a component of a [[windmill]] used to harness wind and convert it into [[Mechanical power]]. This power is then used to automate a number of mechanical processes including grinding, pulverizing and hammering.
 
==Construction==
Sails are constructed in sets with one set having four sails (one sail for each windmill blade).
 
A set of sails requires
*6 sticks
*4 [[Flax#linen|Linen]]

The maximum number of sets of sails per windmill is five.

==Assembly==
Sails are attached directly to the rotor. See [[Windmill]] for full assembly. Each set of sails will increase the power output by 25% and require one full block clearance (per set). '''If the sails do not have space to move freely, they will break and fall to the ground below.'''
 
==Need for large amount of flax fiber==
Sets of sails require a large amount of flax fiber. One set of sails requires 64 flax fibers (4 fibers x 4 twine x 4 linen) and to put the maximum of five sets of sails on a windmill, 320 flax fibers would be needed. Collecting and growing [[Flax]] as early as possible will help minimize the delay in getting to mechanized power.
