This is a remix of Hooptey's VAWT which can be found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:85168
LowerMotorMount07 makes it easier to use various size motors and it has a pass-through for wiring.
MagneticBase08 holds three small neodymium magnets so it can attach to any metal surface like the roof of a van or car.
All pieces requiring dowel or brass tube attachments are either 1/2 or 1/4 inch because metric stuff isn't available in our neck of the woods.
Hooptey says energy output is pretty crappy for DC motors but I hope to try a stepper one day.
