A lot of work has gone into the wind turbine here in Gloucester at the Varian Semiconductor Equipment site. Below is a list of my posts in chronological order of the construction.
- Day of arrival in Gloucester Harbor
- The barge with tower sections in the Inner Harbor
- The jobs site and a quick piece on Baldwin Cranes
- The nacelle staged on the job site
- Bringing a blade up to the job site
- Setting the first tower section
- Setting the second tower section
- Third tower section and crane preparations
- School visit, crane preparations
- The power lines, crane preparations
- 4th and 5th tower section lifts
- Preparing the nacelle for the big lift
- Lifting the nacelle and powertrain
- Assembling the first two blades
- Mounting the third blade
- Lifting the rotor
- Candid shots of the workers
As of today, there is still work to be done but most of it is inside the structure so no photo ops.

Un tirón de orejas es lo que hay que darle por pintar el aspa :-)
Abrazotes y buen fin de semana
