When I was looking into 3d printed wind turbines early on in my 3d printing "career", it seemed to me that there are designs that are omnidirectional that are more likely to be useful for actually generating power and being printable than something this complicated.
hmm... Now that I've gotten much better at 3d printing, I should revisit that idea!
Looks nice. The comments below the article have mixed feelings. This idea reminds me of a friend who told me that he knew a friend who had several mini self made wind turbines for his house, and since he already used very little energy he could be self sufficient.
