Hi guys

At school they are doing an ecoschools project, and were designing and building a wind turbine for it. Has anyone got any sensible ideas basically. Need something to generate the electricity - alternator is preety sh** obviously because of the low revs.

Basically anything lol

Cheers

Ben

I remember there was a Brakedrum Windmill with plans to build it available on the net.
I think this is the link you need: http://www.scoraigwind.com/

I found this old one too:
http://www.windmillworld.com/windmills/scrapheap.htm

One more link: http://www.renewabledevices.com/swift.htm

Looks like the Scots know a thing or two about windpower.
