I just finished my 3 foot tall tornado simulator. It creats a 3 inch wide vortex in open air. It is soo much fun to play with.

I actually dont have a video camera that works right now. I might be able to borrow my friend Sam's camera tomorrow. I currently have two brand new pneumatics that I have yet to post because of this problem. One is a 1/4"
qev airsoft bb gun and the other is a 1" piston valve gun. I also have a couple sprinkler valves and a 3/4" QEV lying around...

you should put mini cows and mini people on bikes in it just to make it an authentic tornado

I make high pressure paintball grenades, low pressure portable grenade filler, low pressure trip mines (paintball), and anything else I think would be good for paintball.

Today i was at my cousins house he wanted to play legos so i said ok. i even made legos violent. I made a lego sized ballista.

i've also made a cross bow using a half cm thick bungie cord. the little wood pieces in a carpeted room that are attached to the wall. (it was grooved for arrows-pencils) the thing you turn to open close blinds. and a release mechanism. a small square metal rod with 3 nail through it.(2 went over the spring one held the bungie cord down. it was pressed up against the wood to hold the pencil in with my sisters hairband. + tones of duck tape.

i also took the top off an rc hummer and put one of those battle robots on. one of the ones you used to be able to buy at toys r us.

Oh may God help us all!!! The KKK is going to overrun this forum!!! Lol, I'll make kkk avatars for spudbux!! No, seriously. PM me if with your idea and we will get to business. (I will tell you if its too hard, or if I'm feeling to lazy at the moment to do it.)

Anyways, I do all sorts of stuff, but most of them include solid propellants and cannons, so, I can't really discuss them on this forum. :(.
Oh yeah, but I do like to mess around with rc and I hope to build an rc tank or something. I have an rc F1 racer with a revolutionary design, and a hovercraft that uses gas plane engines in the works. However, due to my extremely busy school schedule, (I should be writing my essays right now :roll: , I will have to put those projects off until summer. I will most definitely post them when they are finished though.
