Hugh Piggot is the man I have been following and studying his works for over 10 years.

He has built his own and tested many.
I have been working on the brake drum windmill in my spare time, just for the heck of it.
If anyone has any stories to share about component failures or operational problems with equipment at wind farms I'd really like to hear them. I'm also interested in anything on the saftey front at this type of power production site.

I have seen a spiral blade design that looks promising.
Here is one example.
