Okay making some progress but still stuck.

I had git already installed so that saved a step.
1.  Ran git clone instructions ->successful
2.  CD into the sqlite3-ruby directory
3.  Ran rake vendor:sqlite3 =>successful
4.  Rank rake native gem =>

mkdir -p tmp/i386-mingw32/sqlite3_api
cd tmp/i386-mingw32/sqlite3_api
C:/Ruby/bin/ruby.exe -I . 
C:/Users/Joel/sqlite3-ruby/ext/sqlite3-api/extconf.rb 
--with-sqlite3-dir=C:/Users/Joel/sqlite3-ruby/vendor/sqlite3
checking for fdatasync() in -lrt... no
checking for sqlite3.h... no
*** C:/Users/Joel/sqlite3-ruby/ext/sqlite3-api/extconf.rb failed ***
Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary 
libraries and/or headers.
