The Grand Finale

Things got hectic coming up to our deadline. Blades were the hardest part for us to make. But we managed to cut out some to use the day before we needed our windmill up. We had some trouble finding the correct angles to mount the blades. so we simply glued them to pre-constructed fan blades. Luckily for us our original design KICKED A$$ and we got our windmill up in time. When it came down to judging we blew the competition away (har har). With the wind blowing we produced about 10 volts. Other teams were pullin' in between .01 and .2 volts.
