The planetary gears after printing might be slightly fused together. Just gently wiggle them back and forth until they spin smoothly. Adding a bit of lubricant will help immensely.
Here are the places where you can add a drop of lubricant (even cooking oil will do)
Assembly Instructions
Step 1. Take out the gear part and insert the small connectors into the slots (8 of them)
Step 2. Insert the chip into the hexagonal hole
Step 3. Add the round washers
Step 4. Place the rotor onto the core part
Step 5. Insert the handle into the slot
Step 6. Place the cover on top and ensure all the connectors are in the right place
Step 7. Push the cover firmly to snap it in. That's it.
Post-Project Thoughts
I am not an expert in aerodynamics. I designed the turbine the way I thought it should work. The airflow is pretty good but I am sure this can be tweaked to work even better. If you have any ideas - let me know.
