Windmill Blades

Which windmill blade design do you think will work better and why?


  • I think the 8 inch plastic blades would work best because they spin a lot smoother than the Balsa Wood blades.

  • I think that the one that will work the best is four blades and for the material, Balsa Wood. The design I think that will work the best is blades that are curved on both sides. These blades got an output of 6.8 when we tested them out.

Our Windmill

This is our teams hand built windmill. It was actually spinning when very fast when we took this picture but, it doesn't look like it at all. We are now finished with our windmill and were so excited.
