savonus wind turbine (day 1)

We have been working on a wind turbine for scene Tuesday. the first thing that we did in order to make this wind turbine was to build a frame. to do this we used a regular block of wood and found the middle. in the middle was where we put a screw. after we put the screw into the plank of wood we made to squares each 8 cm from the center of the plank. we hot glued two 28cm wooden poles in each of the squares. then we made sure each pole was exactly 90 degrees. then we placed braces on 3 sides of the poles. this was to ensure that they would stay up right and that they would stay 90 degrees. then we screwed an eye screw into at 16cm pole. this pole was place on top to of the28cm poles. we used a thin circular pole and sharpened one end with a pencil sharpener. we then placed this pole into the eye screw and our frame was complete. that was all we had time to do that day
