where wind is the only moving part.

Maybe start with a pvc pipe.
Wind blows thru pipe.
Stuff inside pipe collects charges.
What stuff? Configured how?

:)nar  ha ha ha ha ,  down under here we are in the upright position , useing a bycicle upside down and useing plastic  in the spokes was an idea i got from a book many years ago  so that when the wind blows thropugh it it spins like a propeller  , being in australia down under we have no sense of being upside down , other wise our hair would be sticking up in the air and we would all look like punk rockers .

I am sure you know I was just kidding Steven! ;D  However you can get your hair to stand up if you are charged with static (HV) though! ;)
