Over the weekend we build a wind turbine together from scratch following a design developed by Hugh Piggott of Scoraig Wind - www.scoraigwind.com
The design involves hand-carved wooden blades, an alternator built from scratch using permanent magnets and hand-wound copper wire coils and a hand welded mounting made from reclaimed steel and a reclaimed bearing from a vauxhall astra car wheel.
Camping accommodation is provided at no extra cost as is food.
