Most wind turbines are projects that end up being very difficult to make. They require a lot of machinery that you don’t have at the local hardware store and a lot of difficult materials to find. This specific wind turbine is great because the only power tools you need are a jigsaw and a drill. The materials are also easy to find.

This is so cool.. Has anyone tried to build one of these? Do they actually work?? How much power can the produce?

Great idea. Looks cheap enough to produce anyways. We are considering doing something similar in our blog, but using larger PVC pipe cut into halves to collect the wind. This might be easier than the wood frame you have set up.
