I just realized I didn't give you the specs.

     The wheel is 12 foot diameter. On the same shaft as the wheel is a gear, 48 inches diameter. From that gear runs a chain to a smaller 6 inch gear. On the same shaft as that 6 inch gear (inside the shroud) is another 48 inch gear and from that gear runs a chain that turns another 6 inch gear on the generator.
