DIY windmill

Good day, dear the inhabitants of our site! In this article, Vladimir Natynchik, the author of the channel of the same name, will tell us how to make interesting under the tree for the decor. The author will make a decorative windmill from the trash.

So, let's begin. Vladimir has such boards here, these are second-hand boards from the pallet.

He took apart the pallets and took out nails from them. It is recognized that rusty old nails from a pallet are taken very hard.

It starts processing with trimming, cuts off all substandard.



The next stage of the board dissolves to a thickness of 25 millimeters, in principle, this is not particularly important, it can be varied.



After cutting the blanks, it is now required to find an approximate center, by eye. Let the center be here, mark the edge with a pencil.

And then along the entire length of the level, you can rule makes a full mark.

Now, at the bottom of each workpiece, it drills through holes, the diameter will depend on which stud you use.



I drilled holes everywhere and passed a stud through all the workpieces.

The following manipulations tightens all the workpieces with a hairpin, washer and nut into one "plate".


Then he makes patterns from two sheets of A4 format glued together with adhesive tape.


He makes a stencil of them, then flips them over, evens them in the center, repeats the same manipulations. Here the contour beat off.


Using an electric jigsaw or circular saw, it cuts off excess.


Already sawed, now polishes the entire surface with a belt sander.

I polished the surface and made such cantics on the sides.

Now each workpiece is pushed apart from each other in alignment.



It's time to open the product with paint. He painted one side in red, while the other side is green. As a result, it looks pretty good.


For the finish, it remains to be done little, it is necessary to install a bearing so that the wind turbine rotates freely.

Now he takes the seat post, on it stood a bicycle saddle. Crops here in these places.


It gets such a design. That is a nut, a bearing nut and a lock nut.

Everything is dressed perfectly.

Now trims the extra length of the stud near the locknut so that it does not interfere.

I cut it and thread the wire inside the hole.

The mount is also painted red.

Here’s Vladimir’s windmill.


On its basis, you can make not only decoration, but also a scarecrow for annoying birds by pasting for example an image of a bird of prey.
You can also fix the "music of the wind" on the lower bar, or around the edges.

Thanks to Vladimir for an interesting idea.

All good homemade!
