In effect this is Hugh Piggott’s latest version of his ‘Brakedrum Windmill Plans’, completely revised and up-dated. The book is based on a series of workshops Hugh has run over the last ten years, and the detail here on the mechanics, the electrics and the theory is considerable. The construction part describes building windmills with turbine diameters of 1200, 1800, 2400, 3000, 3600 & 4200 mm. If you are seriously considering building your own wind turbine, you really need this book; with fuel costs ever rising, now might be a good time to start! 64 A4 format pages, profusely illustrated with drawings, photos and charts.
