It's a Taig mill.  I think I need to strengthen the trailing edge a bit, but want to keep the design as simple as possible.  I figure that the required strength of the blade material increases with the rotor diameter, and that if Dan and Hugh can use wood on their beasts, then I ought to be able to use wood for a smaller one.  If I get a blade I like, I may make a bunch of them, as I have a bunch of small motors collecting dust.  Rich Hagen
