Event Description

Get hands-on experience and learn transferable skills in wood carving and working with resin

Learn how to build and install a Hugh Piggott wind turbine from scratch using basic materials

Experienced tutors who have been running courses building Piggott turbines since 2007

A practical fun course for all experience levels

On the course we collectively build a 3.6m diameter Hugh Piggott wind turbine.

V3 Power is a workers cooperative based in Nottingham. The turbine is a robust design that can be easily repaired, maintained and serviced and is an excellent example of appropriate technology.
