Building vs.
Buying
Most people will probably be intimidated by the thought of building their own wind turbine for
their home. Fact is, building your own wind turbine is a surprisingly easy project. I found out
first hand how quickly and smoothly it actually is by building a wind turbine
myself.
Building your own wind turbine will get money back in
your pocket much faster than a commercial unit simply because you will have less than $200.00 in
the whole do-it-yourself project.
The commercial units, while looking quite sleek and
attractive, can also get quite expensive, and they will take years to re-coup the initial
expense.
My Earth4Energy wind
turbine paid for itself in roughly 4 months, and it looks pretty sleek and attractive itself !
Check it out in the picture to the right.
How I
Started
I became interested a little over
a year ago in building my own wind turbine for my home. I studied the internet looking for free
plans, but after seeing the sketchy looking free plans that were out there on the web, I decided
that maybe I should just purchase a set of the instant download plans that you see advertised
everywhere. I decided on Earth4Energy.
Getting The Parts
Getting the parts was a little challenging (at least for me) when it came to getting the right dc
motor that I wanted. I was hoping to find a steal and get one for next to nothing, but I always
seemed to be a step behind the good deals.
Turns out though, I found one right under my nose
when I checked my mother-in-laws' basement and, lo'-n-behold I hit the holy
grail of discarded exercise
equipment! More importantly, a like-new treadmill! With some
quick-talking I scored the motor and I was on my way.
Making The Wind Turbine Blades
The
wind turbine blades were a cinch. Get yourself a piece of pvc sewer pipe and saw it into quarter
sections and simply shape them like a propeller blade with a jig-saw. After that, sand the edges
with an orbital sander and finish your blades with a few stripes of paint on the tips and they are
looking pretty cool.
Setting Up A
Tower
The tower probably would be the most difficult thing to find
at a decent price. I got lucky. A friend of mine was remodeling his house and was getting rid of
his antenna tower. I brought the forty foot section home, re-painted it, and bingo...I had a wind
turbine tower!
Of, course, you can opt for just a simple pole and mount it from your rooftop. This is by far much
easier. I took the more challenging route!
How Long To
Build?
Acquiring all of the parts actually took longer than putting
my wind turbine together. I spent roughly two weeks getting all of my parts, but only two days
building the wind turbine.
I am sure most people could find parts a little quicker than me, I spent a lot of time trying to
find parts for free, or next to it. Really though, the parts list provided with these wind turbine
manuals are pretty clear and you should be able to get everything within a couple of days for less
than $200.00.
Earth4Energy does have a
convenient parts package section that steers you, with just a click of the mouse, to most all
of the parts that you will need. All from the convenience of your home. I picked up all of my
parts from various places locally.
How Well
Does It Work?
I have had my wind turbine
operating for over a year now and cannot believe the success I am having with it.
I really have had to do minimal
maintenance to it and my electric bills have dropped dramatically!
It took about four months
before my wind turbine paid itself off in energy savings. Now, it's all money in the pocket!
It just stands out there in my yard and spins with the wind at a very low whisper and
produces free energy all the while.
