In this episode of DIY or Buy we will have a closer look at a commercial wind turbine. I will show you how it works and how much power it can output. Afterwards I will then 3D print a mini wind turbine I found on thingiverse and test it as well in order to figure out whether it makes sense to DIY such a wind turbine or whether we should stick to the commercial solution instead. Let's get started!
