I'd have to say Dan's right about the blades... I'm not real comfortable with metal blades at all. The dragonfly looks like a stout little unit. My attempts of using the alternator out of the box were less than satisfying but the modified rotor unit worked fairly well. I still prefere building my own alternator for whatever project I'm working on. I purchased the plans for the dragonfly some time ago out of curiosity but never built one.
I would say if your going to build any type of turbine use good judgement on the strength and durability of the spinning mass....
Have Fun but play safe!
