Three years ago, construction workers built 60 wind turbines in the Bradford area and that kept Gorder busy because they ate at her cafe. She had a colorful sign made so the workers could find her restaurant. She baked lots of cookies and pies when the …

PART 3 HOW TO CEILING FAN WIND TURBINE
THIS IS A VIDEO TO SHOW THOSE WHO DONT WANT TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY FOR THE BIG SYSTEMS OUT THERE. THE BLACK UNIT IN THE BACK GROUND IS THE ONE THAT IM MAKING FOR A FRIEND WHO WILL USE IT WITH GREAT GLADNESS. HIS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS ALMOST COMPLETELY DESTROYED BY LIGHTENING. IT WOULD COST TOO MUCH FOR REPAIRS AND NEW DEPOSITS AND OLD BILL TO RECONNECT, ESPECIALY WITH REPAIRS FOR A NEW SERVICE BOX AND UPDATING TO A BREAKER SYSTEM AND THE WIRES DESTROYED IN THE HOUSE. ALTHOUGH THIS UNIT WILL NOT NORMALLY SUPPLY A NORMAL HOUSE HOLD IT WILL ALLOW HIM TO HAVE LIGHTS , RADIO, TV , CELLPHONE CHARGING, AND A FEW MORE THINGS BUT NOT ALL AT ONCE OR CONSTANTLY. BUT 20 DOLLARS A DAY FOR GAS IN A GENERATOR IS NOT AN OPTION EITHER. A BAG OF ICE, AND A COOLER IS. WE ARE MAKING A SOLAR HOT WATER HEATER AS WELL. BY 1:00 PM HE WILL HAVE ENOUGH WATER TO DO DISHES AND GET A NICE HOT SHOWER. THEN RELAX BY THE TV OR RADIO FOR A FEW HOURS ON STORED ENERGY. THEN GO TO SLEEP WITH A SMILE. IF HE GETS UP IN THE NIGHT HE CAN JUST TURN ON THE LIGHT. AND ITS ALL FREE. I HAVE ONE CONFESSION TO MAKE ABOUT THE ONE IN THE FIRST VIDEO THAT EVERYONE HAS COMPLEMENTED ON FROM THE BEGINNING. THAT IS , THAT THE ONE THAT IS IN THE VIDEO IS THE 7th OR 8th ONE I DID. I DID IT FOR SOMEONE ELSE BUT I DESTROYED ONE OF THE COIL SETS IN IT BY PULLING ON THE WIRES TO HARD WHILE I WAS RETHREADING THE WIRES TO COME OUT THE OTHER SIDE. BUT THE 12 VOLT SYSTEM INSTEAD OF 24 VOLT SYSTEM WILL NOT SLOW THE BLADES DOWN WHEN …

@Hawk6DM GREAT COMMENT HAWK, THANKS FOR THE INFO.? I LOVE THIS COMMENT.
MUDDy
Just one comment from an aircraft mechanic. You mentioned that you need strong bolts and then mentioned stainless steel. A good quality carbon? steel bolt is much stronger than stainless. However stainless is non-magnetic, depending on the amount of chromium and nickel it has in it. We never use stainless in shear. And only occasionall use it in light tensile loads. Aircraft grade cadmium plated bolts are the best use for tensile or shear strength. You do need to specify what type of load.
@3gd16 THICKER COIL WIRES WOULD GIVE YOU MORE? AMPS AND LESS VOLTAGE. THUS THE PROP SIZE MIGHT HAVE TO BE RECALCULATED. YOU CAN GET UP TO 400 WATTS THAT WAY. PAKSCIENCECLUB DID THEIRS THAT WAY BUT SHOWED NO BENCH WORK. JUST THE TEST RUN. LEAVING THE ORIGINAL WIRE, AND JUST SPLITTING THE COILS AND CONNECTING IN SERIES CAN DO THE SAME. JUST TRICKY, BUT LESS WORK AND PATIENCE. I SPLIT THE COILS BY 2, AND GOT 250 WATTS ON THE HARBOR BREEZE MODEL.

What would happen if i were to remove the coils and add thicker coil wires??
@kevykev38 99% OF THEM DO COME APART THE SAME WAY. IN FACT AFTER 5 YEARS I HAVE ONLY FOUND 3 THAT WERE OLD ENOUGH FOR OIL BATH? BEARINGS, AND A FEW FAN BELT ONES ALSO. THEY ARE PRETTY INTERESTING TO SAY THE LEAST. I HOPE YOU ENJOY THE SERIES. OH AND I ACTUALY FOUND ONE THAT HAS AN ARMATEUR INSIDE THE STATOR. PRETTY COOL MODEL.
THANKS DUDE.
MUDDy
Not all ceiling fans come? apart like that.
@bnewton81 THANKS FOR THE? IDEA, I MIGHT JUST DO THAT. IT WOULD BE NICE TO HELP OUTSIDE MY BOUNDARIES.

@dave97202 I BELIEVE? YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT THE STEEL BANDING. NO OVERLAP IS NEEDED, JUST KEEP THE ENDS CLOSE TO EACH OTHER FOR A BALLANCED ROTOR. NIT PICK AWAY…. I DO!
WEEE!

@reverendzombie72 ALLIED MAGNETS HAS A? DECENT DEAL ON THE 1/2 INCH BY 1/8th INCH ROUND DISK MAGNETS.
MUDDy
What? type of magnets do I need? Where can I get them?
@muddymuddymuddmann Give it some thought, but I bet that? you could get a grant from the government to do just that. Even in these trying times. One man can change the world.
@bnewton81 4000 COMBINED VIEWS A DAY HELPS, BUT IT IS FAR FROM WHERE? I WANT IT TO BE. THE ONES THAT NEED IT MOST DONT HAVE ACCESS TO THE WEB MUCH. I WOULD LOVE TO TRAVEL AROUND THE WORLD AND INSTALL FREE ENERGY TO 3RD WORLD COUNTRIES WITH LITTLE TO NO ELECTRICITY. JUST A DREAM MAYBE, BUT A GOOD ONE THAT I HOPE TO SEE COME BY.
TNX.
MUDDy
you obviously know what you are talking about, but the problem as with any technical subject is getting that knowledge to the ppl that don’t know.?
@babblake1 THANKS FOR THE COMPLIMENT!? NOT REALY IN THE MOVIE BUSINESS. BUT I WILL MAKE A DVD OF THE CEILING FAN WIND TURBINE CLASS VIDEOS AND SELL IT FOR CHEAP SO SOME ONE DOESNT NEED THE COMPUTER TO SHOW A FRIEND ACROSS TOWN. IF YOU ARE A SUBSCRIBER, I WILL SHOW A VIDEO ON THE DVD WHEN IT IS READY.
MUDDy
