I have recently set up a weather station in my back garden in order to determine the viability of a wind turbine/rain water turbine in my garden.

Synopsis : How to build an anemometer that meets my requirements. They are: cheap to build, works well, and looks cool up there on the roof. ... The first thing I needed to find to build the anemometer were decent ball bearings, but new ones cost $7.00 to $15.00 each and i didn't want to spend that much.

To add a little more challenge to this project and make it less expensive, I decided to try to build the anemometer using parts I already have, if possible. Here is a small list of parts:

Your anemometer is useful because it rotates with the wind. To calculate the velocity at which your anemometer spins, determine the number of revolutions per minute (RPM). Next calculate the circumference (in feet) of the circle made by the rotating paper cups.

An anemometer is a device that tells you how fast the wind is blowing. The device you can build is a model of a wind speed indicator. A real one will be able to accurately measure how fast the wind is blowing. Yours will give you only approximation of how fast it's blowing.
