Pringles Wind Turbine (Pleech) - Version One

Step 2: Cut the Pringles Can

You'll need to cut the can into two halves lengthwise. Be sure to mark it carefully. Uneven halves will create an unbalanced turbine. Metal snips help -- easier than scissors, less ragged than a saw.

Mike-checked out your explanations--clear and good. Wish I had time to build one. I'm a total alternative energy junkie so this is in line with the paradigm shift the world needs to make: DEcentralized energy sources. Many small contributions to the energy grid make for a robust and infallible system.

After going through a few cans, the step might be better written as: Once you're really sick of chips, pass out the rest to unsuspecting friends and acquiantances ;)
