Inspired by the last FLL theme, I figured out it would be nice to have wind
turbines as part of the layout... even if they actually might not produce
energy.
At first I thought of having one (micro) motor on each of them, but that
would get a bit too expensive and cumbersome. Then I thought of using some
thread between a motor hidden below and the turbine itself, but that proved
to be tricky and fragile. The final solution includes a 35cm long and 3mm
thick knitting needle

Matija,
Quite ingenious...and what’s really neat is that you’ve got the timing on them
done perfectly! (Anybody that’s seen some in action can attest to this!)
