STEP 11: INSTALLATION OF THE REST OF THE COMPONENTS OF THE YAW ASSEMBLY

Install part (I) inside the bearing. Insert this assembly inside the cavity for this purpose of the Central Body. Place the two Retaining Clips in their positions. Glue the plastic handle to the piece (I). This will make it possible to screw this Wind Turbine to a tripod or other device with a ¼ inch male thread.

note: In the video that I showed you above, the depth that I had designed to contain the bearing was incorrect. I noticed this doing the assembly. I decided to glue the bearing to the central body and didn't use the retaining clip :) In the STL file I uploaded for this piece this error is fixed.

I recommend making part (I) in metal at a local workshop or by yourself if you have the skills and tools. Although I don't think it can fail in the short term, I do think that in metal it would be much more resistant over time.
