Well, first I would like to thank you for your support of what I and many others are doing and have done here.  Your support means more to us than I can possibly express.  

Thank you all for your encouragement on the windmill.  I have wanted to build a windmill for years and finally got this one together.  I have been a woodworker for as long as I can remember.  The electrical side was a "learning experience" for me.  That really was my goal with this one.  

I appreciate your comments and input.  I would like to be able to start charging with a little less wind speed.  As ghurd said, It takes a "good wind".  

Thank you ghurd for all your help getting me going in the right direction, and introducing me to Fieldlines!  

SSG S

Hey S,
Welcome.  Nice to see you "here".
Hope you are home, or on your way.

I got some emails from people who said the same things but didn't post a reply.
I told them I wish I never would have posted this, because now I have NO excuses...
I will never be able to post a photo of my crappy PVC blades again.  Too embarrassed!
Just kidding, twice.
Very glad I posted it, and expect to see more crappy stuff posted by me.
