Vertical Wind Turbine VAWT
Have us print this for you
PLA from £6 inc. UK delivery on letter-sized prints. We slice, print on a calibrated Creality K2 / Bambu A1, QC and post.
####**Vertical Axis Wind Turbine VAWT**
A beautiful wind turbine (Ø245mm x 800mm). Intended for balcony and low windspeed use.
Designed for my Ultimaker 2+ (max build volume, big nozzle, high printspeed).
Of course you can print it on every, big enough printer. I recommend to use a big nozzle (0.6mm for „Flügel 8x.stl“ with Vase Mode, 0.8mm for the rest)
