Video of the Wind Turbine Being Erected
Here's the video I promised of our Raum 3.5 wind turbine being erected. The whole process took about an hour, so this 2 min clip just highlights the process.
You should read this blog post before you watch the video. At the beginning, you'll see the the turbine being raised from a horizontal position using a gin pole and a winch attached to the back of a pick-up. When it is almost erect, Roy and his dad check that the bolts are lining up and start tightening them down. The last clips are of the turbine during a short test run. If you listen closely Roy says what it is producing.
