My brother and his wife and been considering the idea for many years on buying a wind turbine.  Last month, he finally decided to do it.  Their electric bills were getting higher each year, and they felt economically, this is the way to go.  My brother is a hands on type guy, so putting together a DIY wind turbine wouldn’t be a problem.  The first thing my brother did was research everything online.  He does that with most purchases!  He found he would be able to buy the parts he needed, as well as find directions on how to build right online.
