Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I've added a new page to the web site, this one explains how the furling system works.

Now I think I got it right, but if I made a mistake anywhere, or could have explained it better, please let me know.

Special thanks to Ed Lenz and his web site. http://www.windstuffnow.com/

The new page is here http://www.thebackshed.com/windmill/Docs/Furling.asp

A moment is expressed as KgM and not as weight(Kg). This error is throught your calculations section.
