Hi Xringer, yes I'm feeling old myself. I was 80 last week. I have a bunch of the neodymium magnets. They can nip you if you're not careful. It seems everyone who makes their own wind turbine uses them. I think another problem is making the wheel run true as the coils need to be very near the magnets. If you've ever trimmed a wheel so it didn't bind somewhere you will know how hard it is to get it even near to true.
