Nice work Bruce! Hope you can retire next year so we can see a lot more builds from you!!
A side note about building your channel… I’m not a fan of “YouTube shorts”, but they seem very popular. Every time you make a regular full length video, take a couple shorts with your phone vertical mode, 20-60 seconds and upload those too. Many of them will get several thousand views very fast and gain you a few subscribers with each one.
I agree Nick.
One of the reasons I am only posting shorts lately.
I just post my 1st short the other day, & your correct, it flying in views. I guess people want quick, short entertainment.
Thanks for the retirement well wishes Nick, I hope there's still something to retire with by that time.😯

VERY nice Bruce!
Like Daniel asked above....mate, where'd ya' get those cool street lamps from?????
I put what they are and where you can get the lamps in another post, but apparently not this thread, my apologies Gents, look on EBay for MTH Rail King lamppost, they are nicely made,diecast material, usually have the pos/neg lugs and come in many different configurations and colors, everyone I've ever bought takes the E10 bulb. Many of the MTH lamppost have multiple bulb holders, but be aware...your genny may not handle 2-3 bulb units. They are usually 2 pieces in a pack & run about $25-$30 plus shipping. Jensen has priced themselves out of consideration for me @ $30 for a single lamppost ,plus handling, plus shipping.(& you'll have to make a base)
As an aside, I just looked up the genny price & they are back up to $138 now.
Thanks for the info on the lampposts Bruce, they're just what I've been looking for - now I won't have any excuse to not finish a couple of projects.
your welcome Larry. the tear shaped bulbs in the MTH units take a lot of power to light them & will need (in most cases) to be replaced with a lower voltage bulb.

That's all really impressive Bruce, and I especially like the "formal" bases that you have mounted the gennies on.
Those light poles really do look fantastic, do you happen to have a link for them that you'd be willing to share?
Of course, using one of those generators as a motor to drive your truly excellent windmill is a perfect application!

Hi folks.
here we have a trio of AliExpress generators/electric motors. I have grown very fond of these AliExpress units. They are robust, attractive & very versatile.
