Developing your own homemade wind power system is one of the smarted decisions one can make when it comes to helping the environment. But to some, the biggest benefit of all the impact it will have on your wallet. Building a homemade wind power system can reduce your electric bill my as much as 90%.
First, we need to discuss how a wind generator works. To put it basic terms, electricity is created by magnets rotating around an electric coil and in return results in electric power. So we don't complicate things more than they should be, let discuss what all wind generators have in common.
Power Tool Kit
Homemade wind power generators all have five things in common. They all utilize a generator, blades, mount, tower and control system. Don't worry if you don't know what some of these things are. There are several do-it-yourself guides available online. The do-it-yourself route is what I would recommend due to the fact that having one build by a professional can cost several thousand dollars.
However, before jumping in with both feet, you need to determine if using homemade wind power is the right solution to your energy needs. In order to determine is the wind generator is going to be cost effective, you need to know average wind speed for your area. A general rule is the average wind speed needs to be 10mph or greater for the wind generator to be cost effective. If not, I recommend you look into solar energy.
Building your own homemade wind power system is a great investment and will usually pay for itself in a couple of years. You can expect to reduce your electric bill between 50%-90%. Now how's that for 'going green'.

If you're ready to carve a jack-o'-lantern with a more sophisticated design than the traditional toothy grin, the Dremel Pumpkin Carving Kit is for you. The kit's carving tool is not intended to cut through the pumpkin. Instead--after the gourd has been cut open and cleaned out--the tool is used to etch designs into the pumpkin's surface by removing layers of the skin. When a light is placed inside the jack-o'-lantern, it illuminates the design and produces a glowing effect.
Two Carving Speeds to Meet Your Needs
The hero of the Pumpkin Carving Kit is the 6-Volt Dremel Alkaline Cordless Rotary Tool. This carving tool offers two speeds--7,000 and 14,000 rotations per minute--to aid carvers with varying levels of experience. The low speed is ideal for gaining control over small and intricate designs and is more manageable for beginners. As you become more experienced with the tool, you can use the high speed for faster carving.
Lightweight and Cordless for Convenient Carving
The rotary tool is compact and weighs only 6 ounces, which means it's easy to carry and handle. As an added convenience, the cutting tool is cordless, so you won't have to worry about finding extension cords or power outlets. Just pop four 'AA' batteries into the rotary tool, and you'll be ready to etch your next eerie emblem.
High-Speed Cutter Accessory for Detailed Sculpting
In addition to the rotary tool, the Pumpkin Carving Kit comes with a Dremel 191 High-Speed Cutter accessory. The cutter has rounded edges and is ideal for intricate work. A handy black wrench easily secures the 1/8-inch high-speed cutter to the rotary tool, so you can make precise surface cuts and detailed designs.
Templates Make Carving as Easy as Tracing a Drawing
The Dremel Pumpkin Carving Kit includes 10 artistic jack-o'-lantern templates that range in level of difficulty: two ghosts, a witch, a haunted house, a scary cat, two snaggletooth faces, a vampire, a skeleton and a "Happy Halloween" tagline. Additional templates can be downloaded from the carving templates page at dremel.com.
Whether you follow the templates strictly or combine them to form your own unique creations, each one makes the best of your tool's options, so you can carve a jack-o'-lantern you'll be proud of. Just stick a template on the side of your pumpkin and cut away--the Pumpkin Carving Kit makes carving intricate pumpkin designs as easy as tracing a drawing.
Carve Gourds, Apples, Soaps, and More
Pumpkins aren't the only material that can be carved and decorated using the Dremel Pumpkin Carving Kit. Use the rotary tool to carve and decorate gourds or apples (the apples will shrivel to create a scary effect), or carve Halloween shapes out of bars of soap to add spirit to bathrooms and kitchens. The Dremel Pumpkin Carving Kit can even be used on artificial pumpkins--create designs on foam pumpkins and ensure the longevity of your Halloween decorations for years to come.
The Dremel Carving Kit is backed by a manufacturer's two-year warranty.
