Terry's Wind Turbine built with CNC and PICStep

Terry has been busy building his own wind turbine to power lighting in his garage at home. He's constructed the blades and most of the mechanical components using his home-made router driven by three PICStep drivers. You can check out his website at http://www.terry-is.f2s.com/ and his wind turbine website at http://www.build-a-windturbine.com/

You can also see Terry's router in action milling out one of his blades in this rather cool video.
