    Dang, man. Looks like a gatlin gun. Does it do anything? Is it practical? Or just bike bling?

    ok guys, I have the idea in my head now, and it wont be much to build, and it's completely different than their design.

    the only thing is, bearings..

    does anyone have a link to a site with some smaller, high heat bearings? or do you think normal bearings can handle the heat of the muffler?

    I guess ill describe what my idea is.

    I have some 4" chrome piping at home, then a small slot will be cut in the side, and a bracket that looks like this ] will be put into that side (2" plus the thickness of the pipe) I was thinking of using redi-rod for this, so, a carrige bolt will be welded to redi rod, and a small square is cut into the bottom of the ] bracket.

    then I will have a nut welded to the redi rod, then a bearing on top of the nut (welded or jb weld somthing) to the redi rod, on this bearing will be those two plates with a spacer between them and 6 holes cut in them, then ther will be another configuration just like this maybe 6" up.

    the pipes I will use will be a VERY thin walled pipe, slash cut on the inside, I will not use using propellers because I think it spins too fast, if need be, some washers will be welded to the slash cut to restrict the flow and make it "push"

    Sounds very legit, and the materials and machining should cost 50-75.

    Then I will probably high heat paint the barrels, maybe powder coat. I would love to make a cad drawing, but all my software is at home....

    now that I have that idea out of my head, I can start studying for my math exam tomorrow :D
