| That's not inline, it's a normal one. An inline block does the same thing, but it's not in the T. |

| and it works better. as of the smaller vortex hole, there is less length for it to travel. |

| Not true, Mr.Russ. The first inline vortexes used the full hole, exactly the same as the original. I started using a little over half a hole, and it seems to work better. What you said is true, but just saying, not a lot of vortex guns use the half hole (3 to be exact, your's, and 2 of mine). |

| I honestly did not know that. I thought inlines only had like 1/2 to 3/4 of the hole. |

| could you make a vortex out of a straight piece or does it have to be a "T" shaped? |

yes this is the goal of an inline you take a half of an inch material, (e.g. plexiglass, acrilic) You just cut a hole for the vortex then a hole for the barrel and input, same concept as t-type.
P.S.
Im pretty sure noname has a guide in the how-to section |
