Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Its been some time since I posted something here. Here are some of my new pics. The mini Lenz are Ed's MiniGen's that work very well and good trickle charger's. On the big FP Lenz I used a coupler. It a bad location and to many trees, will move soon.

Enjoy
Wayne

Looks good Wayne.

How do you find the Lenz and F&P combination?

The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago, the second best time is right now.

Hi Glenn
It seems to turn very well once it gets moving. I find no noise and more from Lenz blades sheeting. The tower is not good and blades come a little to close right now. I wish I had a welder but only small lathe. The shaft FP was cut and sized down to fit coupler. I did the best with the materials I could get. For the real output will need a suitable location and new tower. The FP are very hard to get in Canada and are amazing generators, wish I lived there.
Cheers
Wayne

Hiya Ken,
        Eh mate I just tried that link to randysworkshop and got redirected to a tv site. Do you think you can put up a direct link to the f&p page on his site as I have a mate in the US that wants one.

Cheers Bryan
