Thanks to Ivan Juretic for these lovely pictures of the wind turbine he built and installed in the mountains of Croatia. I like the style of the tail stops. They are simple and slick.
-
- Parts ready for welding
-
- Interesting new ideas for the cable ducting and the tail stops.
-
- nice castings.
-
- Tail in low position. Note the way the stop works.
-
- Tail in high position. Again note the stop.
