180 mm Wind Turbine (Wind Wheel) 6 Blades

The wind wheel is optimally printed in two parts, individually.

After inserting the ball bearings (see below), the bottom cover is glued on.

Before gluing, check the synchronization and correct it if necessary.

Occasionally lubricating the bearings with a small amount of oil during outdoor use (where else would you use it) is harmless.

You will also need two 8x22x7 mm ball bearings (608 ZZ or 2RS) and, for example, a VA threaded rod M10, with a 14 mm long cylinder of diameter 8 mm screwed onto one end.

It is crucial that the bearings spin smoothly.

For 608 2RS bearings, the plastic caps can be removed, for instance.

Then, wash out the bearing grease and replace it with a smooth-running oil.

The wind turbine is ideally printed individually in two parts.

Before gluing, be sure to check the smooth operation and correct if necessary.

It does not hurt to lubricate the bearings occasionally with a small amount of oil during outdoor use (where else).

Also required are two 8x22x7 mm ball bearings (608 ZZ or 2RS) and, for instance, a VA threaded rod M10, onto which a 14 mm long cylinder with a diameter of 8 mm is screwed at one end.

It is essential that the bearings run smoothly.

For the 608 2RS bearings, for example, the plastic caps can be removed.

Subsequently, the bearing grease is washed out and replaced with a smooth-running oil.
