Built a couple wind turbines as protypes . The larger one in the photo has three two foot blades and they were made from 3 inch PVC pipe. The rest of the project was made from scrap parts laying around the garage. I have about 20.00 dollars invested in all. The next one will be about the same size but will be connected to an alternator so I can generate some electricity. Not to power anything, just to do it so I can watch the meter move.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
