Description

PDF

was bored while printing a VAWT (Aeulous by Hashtag_Francis) so I made some miniature turbines in Fusion 360.

BOM:
1.a sushi stick (any ~5mm wide stick will do)
2.uh a printer

To assemble, print a base, windmill and a cap, stick the stick into the base, put windmill on it and close it with a cap. cap is press-fit, but you may need some hot glue or anything sticky.
 

windmill types:
-type 1: default helical windmill. Used NACA 0018 profile.
-type 2: something that looks like Darrius type but not sure.
-type 3: (almost) Darrius type.
-type 4: Darrius type.
