Wind Turbine Remix

I wanted to make some changes to the eolienne (wind turbine) design by Gwlad55. If you want to duplicate my effort, you will print a combination of his parts and my modified components.

I substituted an eight mm diameter carbon fiber tube for the aluminum tube called out by Gwlad55. I cross drilled the spacers between the bearings of both the horizontal and vertical shafts using a 2mm drill bit. Then in inserted a 14mm long piece of 1.75mm filament and secured it with a drop of cyanoacrylate adhesive. I heated the blade of a screwdriver and mushroomed both ends of the filament much like you would peen over the end of a metal rivet. When I pressed in the bearings, I added a few drops of adhesive. Now the bearings and shafts are secured in the main body and won’t fall out.
I wanted to remove and reinstall the blades for easy transport.

The original design had no means to secure the hub assembly to the horizontal shaft. Using Fusion 360 I split the blade hub into two parts
