Description

I once wanted to make a wind/water turbine to generate electricity.
but I have no wood/metal-working skills so the project failed.
but since I heard about 3d printers the idea of just printing it came to mind.
so here I designed a turbine in openSCAD.

its probably not that good and I have doubts about the printability and durability .
but I hope somebody has use for it.

Instructions

before it can be printed you need to add a hole for the axis or put a cylinder as axis on it that goes into a bearing.
I haven`t put that on it since I have no idea how big it will print and the measurements of a bearing are not known to me.

after its printed find a source of wind/moving-water.
and mount it up and hook a generator up and hope it doesn`t break.

maybe combine it with one of these:
