Toroidal Windmill - Self adjusting turbine

Looks like a spinning flower and no much wind is needed.

YouTube Short

• Beautiful Windmill with toroidal Propeller Blades
• Self adjusting to wind direction (Tail Blade Reworked)
• 100% printed, no Screws or tools needed
• You can add 3 Propellers on one Axle with 2 distances
• Full customizable with different propeller sizes and directions (I plan to add more cool propeller types as well)
• Rods are stack able to your needed height

Printing:

You can choose Propellers from 3 Print Profiles

• Basic Parts with Left& Right Propeller to choose
• Additional Propeller Blades
• Additional Slower Propeller *New

You can mix the propellers from these profiles.

• added one profile for A1mini without the biggest blade as well

The rod could be a bit difficult to print, i added custom support, but clean your buildplate and apply some glue.

PETG & PLA tested👍🏼

Assembly:

Info:

• Added custom support to the horizontal printing rod
• Added optional longer axle for more distance between propellers (10mm instead of 5mm).  With stronger wind the bigger blades should not collide.

The Pitch from the Basic Blades:

• Big - Pitch 195mm
• Med - Pitch 170mm
• Small - Pitch 135mm

Additional Propeller Blades with different numbers of Wings:

• Big - Pitch 190mm
• Med - Pitch 160mm
• Small - Pitch 130mm

Additional “Slower” Propeller Blades:

• Big - Pitch 400mm
• Med - Pitch 325mm
• Small - Pitch 250mm

Thanks to all followers and don't forget the virtual handshake 👍 ….Happy Printing
