Great job it looks like it will make some power.

Thanks, it hit 54 watts yesterday and I think she will be good for at least 200.

WOW thats great you must have carved some great blades.I hope you do hit 200
Thanks! Carving blades is my strong suit. They should have pretty much a perfect twist and air foil.
I still need to get the power to the ground, I haven't figured that one out yet. A double contact ring could work.
Hey I am not sure how your setup works but on mine I bolt my turbine to a set of bicycle forks and the bearing and race fit right into a pipe then I can run my wires through the center of the forks and down the pipe.just a thought for you.TAKE CARE
That's a good idea, but mine uses a bearing from a lawnmower deck for the pivot. Thanks for the idea.
