You should print one section at a time and lower the speed as the height increases in order to get a nice print. The best option for mounting this turbine is to secure the axle it will be placed on both from the top and the bottom. The design is stackable so you can print is as tall as you want resulting in greater power output. Moreover i highly advise you to gear down the output of the turbine to raise the torque created. I am really curious what designs you may use it in so if you happen to print this model please share photo of your creation as a make. Happy windmilling!
