Note générale :	Construction details for low cost windmill are presented. The windmill produces on horsepower in a wind of 6.4 m/sec (14.3 mph) or two horsepower in a wind of 8.1 m/sec (18.0 mph). The windmill used the rear-axle and differential of a small car. Other parts are made from sheetmetal, pipe, steel ribbon, rod, angle iron or channel, welded or bolted together and wood. No presision work or machining is required and the design can be adapted to fit different materials or construction skills. The rotor blades feather automatically in high winds to prevent damage. A fullscale prototype has been built and tested successfully.
