Balancing PVC Wind Generator Blades
Arguably one of the most important steps when building a wind generator using PVC blades is balancing them. If you don't balance the blades your wind generator will 'wobble' and can cause serious damage to it or you (if a blade breaks). Balancing PVC wind generator blades is easy so let's get at it.

What You'll Need
- Wet Erase Marker
- Pen & Paper
- Blades mounted on the hub with an arbor
- The body of the wind generator which you started in the previous step
- Some cutting pliers
- Sandpaper
- Touch up paint
