How to Build A Wind Generator (Do-It-Youself)

[ian57812]

nice project. not to sure about using pvc pipe it becomes very brital when exposed to uv light

and cold temps kind of designed to go in the ground. mind you stuck on a desert island i would use any thing i could lay my hands on. nice try!

Wow that's some great backyard engineering there. Nice.

I'm starting to build my own windmill typ thingy and it will cost me about 100 dollars per 3 meters ^^

Lets hope it works :D

This video is very helpful. Everyone will definitely would like to have wind turbines after seeing this video. Of course, most of us have high payments for the bill each month because of the electricity that we use coming from these electric companies. It's okay if you have a job or is financially stable but how about those who are jobless? They will suffer in discomfort everyday. As you can see, electricity already became a necessity. The discovery of wind energy is one of the best solution.

quality much?

some eco friendly kinetic models/ornaments in my uploads, check em out..

the fin should NOT be pointing axially into the wind, it should be at an angle.

when tracking the wind ,what prevents the wires from twisting (the ones inside the tower pipe)?

[bearhamo]

Just built one of these and it works like a charm. The only difference is I drilled small holes on the bottom half of the rear pipe cap and at the alternator openings on the front cap to prevent heat buildup. Total cost $240 which I will get back on my electric bill over time.

how manny watts will this gen put out

anyone

[MrAmande2004]

the best video, start to finish that I've seen so far

Thanks

PVC piping is definitely not a good material for horizontal or even vertical wind turbines. Will snap right in half from the torque

Dude you Rock!! I'm gonna check into this! thanks...
