Wind Generator Building Plans

Now that you've decided to build a wind generator you need wind generator building plans. We've found some good building plans that even show you where to find free sources of batteries, towers and even blades.

There's no need to spend thousands of dollars on a new home wind power machine. You can easily build a 1000 watt wind generator for under $100 in only a couple of days.

What do you need to start?

· Simple household tools- jigsaw, cordless drill, wrenches etc.

· Detailed wind generator building plans

· A good helper to hold stuff while it is cut and assembled

· And a place to work, basement or any room, or your garage.

The first thing you need to do is order a DC motor which is used as a power generator. The building plans show you where to find them at a good price, usually under $30.

The DC motor can usually be shipped right to you in only a couple days.

While you are waiting you can build the rest of the machine. A tower is usually located quickly by finding used TV towers that you can use.

The wind generator building plans show you exactly where you can find deep cycle batteries too.

Building the blades can be tricky, but just follow the directions carefully and you will be fine.

To build a 1000w wind generator you will need 4 foot blades at least, forming a total blade diameter of over 8 feet.

These should be built of wood. Straight grained clear spruce or cedar work best for this project.

You can use PVC pipe for blades under 3 feet. Wood is much stronger and more durable.

All sorts of recycled material can be used in this project too- towers (as we mentioned), the body and tail, as well as the batteries too.

Building wind generators has become very popular lately with home made wind generator installations popping up everywhere we look. And no wonder?

When you start producing free electricity for your home, watching those wind generator blades spin, you won't be able to stop smiling. But don't stop there; you can build your own solar panels too.

Did you know that electrical rates are expected to double in price by the end of next year?
