Make sure the blades fit tight and the 4 little rods are in the right place. You might want to use a hammer and a little piece of wood to not damage the blades or the disk when you hit it. This way the same cuts will be nicely on top of each other and the turbine will wobble less after its finished. Pay attention to the markings you made on the sides of the disks when they were still clamped. It needs to be a tight fit !įirst you mount the top of the turbine just as you did the bottom in the step before. Take the clamps of and mount the turbine blades and the 4 smaller rods as shown in the last picture. That way you can still place some washers on your rods without them touching the blades. Divide the 4 rods equally over your turbine as you can see on the picture below. What you also should do when there still clamped is drill the centerhole to the size of your big wire rod and the 4 holes for the small rods. This way when you are assembling the turbine the disks will line up perfectly. On the side of the 2 disks you make a marking that runs over both of them. That saw blade just a fraction thinner then the blades. I used a sawblade thats normally meant for cutting metal. When you cut them they will be exactly the same. The one where you marked the bows on you put on top and then you clamp them together. Draw a line on the inside and the outside of the pipe. The bows you draw like this: take one half pipe and hold it against one of the 8 lines you drawn before. This i would not do again! I think its better to mark only one. The way i did it was to draw the lines on 2 of the planks and then mark all the bows that i had to cut. ![]()
