Hi Rocky,
I really depends on what you're trying to accomplish (how much of your power you wish to generate), where you live and other factors.

I have a bunch of wind information at www.sunburner.com/inside/Wind, the site is still in development and I have a bunch of new content to add so it's pretty general but you may find it useful (if you check back in a few weeks there should be a lot more relevant info).

You can find some good consumer information (assuming you are in the US) at www.windpoweringamerica.gov/smal....asp, they also host seminars around the country to help you define your needs.

As for DIY stuff, there is a pretty comprehensive article at www.motherearthnews.com/Do-It-...d.aspx, it's a bit outdated but may help you. Also, this article details parts and instructions for creating a homebrew wind turbine www.thebackshed.com/windmill/fp2a.asp.

Finally, a few additional links that may provide you with additional information are www.windustry.org/your-wind...wind-proje and www.awea.org/smallwind/.

I hope that helps and good luck with your project!
