Gears of Innovation Challenge Entry 04

The wind turbine's design is based on Ferguson's Paradox, featuring thin blades that could potentially fail to spin due to size constraints. It's currently at its smallest possible form. Scaling it down might be necessary but be aware that smaller gears may not mesh properly. You could possibly apply this concept to tidal turbines for increased efficiency, as well as paddle designs for boats. When importing .stl files, use inches as the measurement unit.
