Description: This is a used turbine that i have built about 10 years ago. It was functioning when it was taken down for the winter just before the trouble of 2019 started. I have been unable to do anything with it for the last four years and it needs a good home. I have no room to continue to store it anymore. I need the room and the money more than another project. I have more interest in steam and want to devote my resources to that end. I have built 10-foot-long blades for this unit out of 2 x 12 lumber. Overall diameter is about 22 feet displacing about 40 square meters. I have several used blades, including the 6 blades shown in the video. The blades need to be restored and repainted. I will provide detailed instructions on how to restore them to like new. I have tried many different blade configurations and sizes. I have additional attachments and blade brackets for different configurations we have tried over the years. The center hub is 3 feet in diameter and is 1/2 inch thick. I have several mounting brackets from different blades have experimented with over the years. I have several videos of this unit in different configurations on YouTube. I will try to post a video here if it will allow it. Otherwise search DON SCHMIDTKE on YouTube. I have several still posted videos there. It does have a permanent neodymium generator installed. It outputs 3 phases between 6 to 480 volts depending on the speed which is variable. It has a gear ratio of 1 turn on the face produces 16 turns on the generator. I am willing to provide technical help. I am not willing to ship this unit. It must be picked up by you with a trailer. It is a very heavy unit, in excess of 2000 pounds total combined. It will require guide wires and an area of 40 x 40 feet. I will help load with a forklift. This sale will be final, and no refunds or returns will be excepted. This is being sold as is, where it is. Ask questions and feel free to personally inspect it before purchase. Preferably I would like to sell it as close to locally as possible so that I might be of more assistance in renovating and setting it back up in a better location. This is a large and dangerous piece of equipment and can produce high voltages if wired in a configuration to do so. Ask questions before bidding please.
