Title of Activity:
Project Progress.
ü Development of Windmill as Electricity Generator (The Turbine part)
Objective:
- Construct the turbine part for windmill.
- Choose the suitable magnet for turbine.
Content/Procedure:
- Using scissors or a utility knife, cut the top and bottom off the water bottle, and then cut the cylinder into two equal halves.
- Use the sand paper to buff the inside edges of each bottle half where they will attach to the end pieces. Sanding allows the hot glue to adhere better.
- Apply hot glue to one of the curved edges of one of the turbine end pieces. Quickly position a plastic bottle half on this edge, holding it steady for about 20 seconds while the glue cools and hardens.

Result and Analysis:Tools and Materials are used to make this turbine part are:
- Scissors & Utility knife
- Hot glue gun
- Nail & Sand paper
- 1.5L water bottle
As a result, the turbine part has been completely made. This turbine will be combined together with the other part of the windmill. And there also have some type of the magnet that should be choose for the turbine. The type of this magnet should be suitable for the turbine.

Conclusions: As a conclusion, the turbine part is constructed using light and elastic materials. This material should be light for make sure the turbine can easily rotate. And it also should be elastic for make sure it can stand for a fast wind force. And video below show the finished wind turbine movement.
