My wife recently found an old Aermotor windmill that she wants to put up as "decoration". The head is in VERY good condition & all in-tact. The wood base is the problem since most of it is falling apart or too rotted out to put up. I want to replace all the wood & was wondering what the best kind to use is?

I live in WY so it can be very windy at times, so I want to make sure I build the base correctly for stability & hold up to the elements. Thanks for your help.
