"Over the past years, I have very much enjoyed building your turbines, and thanks for putting together some great manuals and books describing all this."

PAYMENT METHODS

PAYPAL

Most people use paypal to order my books. 
(I do not take credit cards directly but you can via paypal.)
Use the buttons below for each book and each postal region.

Click on the Paypal links and set up a paypal account if necessary.  This does not take long and is useful anyway.  Make sure you enter your credit card number as a 16 digit block (no gaps) for Paypal.


Bryan Thomas wrote Hy Hugh.  I just ordered your plans on how to build a wind turbine, and I had to type my credit card number with no spaces or no dashes in order for the Pay Pal order to work.  I suggest that when you ask for the customers credit card number, you put, in parenthesis, (no spaces), just to avoid possible confusion, and also to avoid the possibility of missed sales.  Keep up the good work on the good fight though and thanks for the reasonable price on the plans
 


Checks and money orders

You can also send cheques or money orders but only in pounds.  If you send dollar or other currency checks or orders or drafts then the bank will take half of it when I try to change it to useful cash here. If I receive a check in foreign currency (not in pounds) then I cannot use it, and I will probably not respond to your order in any way.

I do not recommend you send cash by registered mail or special delivery since these often get lost.  Regular post is the most reliable and also the cheapest.  I hardly never known cash sent by regular post to go missing.  If registered delivery cash does not arrive, then I usually send the books anyway but I much prefer if you use paypal.

This book is based on the notes from courses that I have taught.

reviews and more information

"very informative, and easy to read" ...    "one of the most influential books of my high school career"




First published 1997 but new edition in 2011
 
154 pages.

A book dedicated to building your own working windmill for electricity production. Details of generator choice and design, blade construction, furling systems, towers, wiring, battery charging, heating, alternator design, modifications for car alternators and generators, and everything else you will need to know.

This is a book about, rather than specific instructions for building your turbine.  it works well in conjunction with my windmill plans above, providing more insight and dealing in more depth with installation and system design.
