    there's a ot of info on the link in carchaeologist"s post, but to be honest it is tough enough to build one from scratch,there is a lot of engineering involved in the construction of turbines... if you are looking to create a substantial amount of power I can't see one built from ply-wood being any way viable to be honest, altho these guy's seemed to get ok results...
