Homemade wind power
I’m always a sucker for a fun new homemade gadget so I was pretty excited to find this page with lots of great home windmill experimentation.
After all, a windmill at its most basic level isn’t all that complicated. We’ve got some blades or other mechanism for causing the spinning, a generator and then a means to transfer the power back to where the energy will be used. And a generator is pretty straightforward as well. Just a coil of wire and magnets. At least that’s the theory. Be sure to follow the link above to find out what it really takes.
