Hi
This is my first post and built 2 units. The little one on big stand just free runs, but the bigger one on red stand has 16 mag, 12 coils. Haven't really spun it up yet, but get about 2 volts by hand. The spacing is off and having real problems to find a solution to bearings. Thinking of now 3/4" shaft and just 2 bearing supports at bottom, or should I use top/bottom plates with bearings. And what bearings are the best for a VAWT. Went to auto place and got the real run around as sizes, types, loading etc. Just don't know. Any help please.
note: one in pic is 5/16 shaft and roller bearings
