How Do You Build A Wind Generator Plans?
Building a wind generator can reduce or even entirely eliminate the need for grid power to electrify a home. With reduced usage, efficient appliances, and a well constructed wind turbine, the house can use electricity for as long as the wind blows above 15 mph. The average backyard builder can make a wind turbine in about a day. Shape the primary vanes for the wind generator by cutting sections of wood to the desired lengths, then sanding the edges to a 30-degree angle from end to end. The curve in the wood will act like the blades of a fan, rotating when pushed by the wind. It would be a good idea to make them as long as possible, to collect a maximum amount of wind friction. Mount the vanes to a wheel-bearing plate, such as an automotive wheel hub, by securing the wood to the metal with L brackets and bolts. Most wheel hubs will have three to eight lug bolts already in place, and these can be used to hold the vanes to a structure. Affix an automotive belt pulley to the wheel hub, or
