I want to make residential wind power for my home.
I live in a built up area so I cannot have one of those massive things spinning around in my backyard.
I want to make one of those smaller windmills I always see on roof tops? Anybody have some instructions for me?

Residential wind power is getting very popular and I am glad its catching on.
I made mine last weekend using the instructions at
It’s actually a very simple process!

Earth4Energy looks promising. There are a couple of other products out there as well. I found one called Poor Man’s Guide To Wind Power And Battery Systems and blogged about it last month. This guy promises to show you how to make a 1,000 watt wind turbine for less than $150.00 and a 3,000 watt wind turbine for about $220.00. The smaller one is probably what you’re looking for.

I got a simple set of instructions and in fact built three of these after I was so satisfied with the first one. I got my schematics and detailed instructions from and was on my way in no time, check it out if you’re interested.
