Hi Jeff,
Great video and design. Will you be making a how to video for this as well?
Nice to see such cool applied engineering, these units seem much easier to install than convential windmills with huge towers.

thank you for sharing you wind turbine knowledge im trying a design based on your 55 gallon drum design i have a pillow bearing for the bottom ill use something cheaper for the top . im planning on a car alt. for my power source. please keep us up dated. peace and unity~~~pat

I would like to get any data on the output of the vertical. I would also suggest that instead of cutting the barrels straight in half. That you would cut the barrel a 1/4 turn offset. This increase the wind surface area and reduce the drag.
