Project Overview

My turbine is a combination of aluminum and 3D printed material. It’s been welded and utilizes 3D constructed parts to support the base! The nacelle was constructed with PLA( 3D) material, and my generator was made with SCH 40 PVC pipe, bar magnets and more 3D material. My 3 blades were designed in White-Box and made from 3D printed material to and are perfectly symmetrical to each other with a twist of 33.50 degrees!
