WIND TURBINE PLANS - WIND TURBINE RECIPE BOOK, (LATEST EDITION-2009)

Make your own renewable energyWe are proud to bring you the GURU of Wind Turbine development, Hugh Piggot's, Axial flux Alternator windmill plans.

I currently hold a patent pending on my own wind turbine design however I used Hugh's excellent and easy to understand books to start with.

Features:

The book describes the step by step process to make you own fully working wind turbine. "How to Build a Wind Turbine" is a 64 page A4 booklet containing full step-by-step instructions for building your own 'axial flux' alternator, carving the blades and welding a frame, to complete an 8 foot diameter, 3-bladed, battery-charging wind generator (12, 24 or 48 volts DC).

Larger and smaller projects are also briefly described.

There are full lists of materials, suppliers and tools for the job.

The design is based on the author's 25 years of experience building, and teaching people to build small wind turbines using the minimum of workshop technology. - (H.Piggot, 2005)

The most expensive thing in the book (and most difficult to obtain) are the rare earth magnets.

The other items you need to purchase (or build) are all found at your local hardware store.
