I also grind my own cornmeal with a steel burr mill, but I cheated and put an electric motor on mine. It is a Wards, date and model unknown. For cornmeal I use ordinary field corn. Shell it and winnow it using a fan if I don't have wind. Then I dry it in a 200F oven for at least 8 hours. Then I tumble it in a tumbler I made from a 5 Gallon pail. Motor runs at 12 rpm. This knocks all the small pieces of cob off each kernel. Winnow it again. Then grind it twice, sifting through a screen made from screen door material. Regrind what won't pass the screen. Makes great mush & cornbread. I have also ground wheat for cereal the same way. I cook it in a doubleboiler like old fashioned oatmeal. We ate it a lot when I was a kid, except we ground it in an old hand coffeee grinder. Didn't have any money and it was a good cheap breakfast, then fried it like mush for dinner if there was some left over. Paul
