better connection

I've made a better connection between the windmill and the generator.
It works much better.

We had some >20 mph winds today and I had to stop the windmill due to vibrations.
I need to figure out some strategy for reducing the vibrations at high wind speed.
That is the fun of this project - there is always something new to improve upon or invent.
