Vertical Axis Wind Turbine VAWT
A beautiful wind turbine (Ø245mm x 800mm). Intended for balcony and low windspeed use.
Designed for my Ultimaker 2+ (max build volume, big nozzle, high printspeed).
Of course you can print it on every, big enough printer. I recommend to use a big nozzle (0.6mm for „Flügel 8x.stl“ with Vase Mode, 0.8mm for the rest)

There are two calibration files, the two parts should fit smoothly together.
„Testfile Unterteil 0.8mm“ for print settings of the parts „Unterteil1x“ „Zwischenteil3x“ „Oberteil1x“. The part has a internal width of around 2mm.
„Testfile Flügel spiral mode 0.6mm“ for the settings of „Flügel 8x.stl“. The part should have a width of 1.1- 1.5mm.
