Mostly looking for feedback. From my point of view, it would work, but is there a way to make it more efficient? Just asking for opinions on the design.

Wouldnt the weight of the ball at the contact points prove to be too much to spin it?
This sorta reminds me of the experiment/trick where a ping pong ball is "levitated" above a hair dryer but is kept in place and at a consistent height by the air flow.

pretty cool. i found instructions on the net for DIY glowsticks made from luminol and another component. could be a cost effective alternative to buying sticks and you could vary sizes

Insignia Pilot. I got the 4gb model and its great. Even supports Bluetooth wireless earphones, also made by insignia so compatibility isnt an issue. The player is like $175 and the headphones were $50. Best buy carries them and i think theres an 8gb model too.

i found about 4 stairway handrails at a house that was getting gutted. cut them into 2 inch lengths and they fit perfectly in the 2in barrel pneumatic. pretty good penetration on wooden fences but they go on forever over my lake lol

I saw a design once where a guy mounted a pneumatic to an exercise bike and as he pedaled it pressurized the gun. http://www.popularmechanics.com/home_jo ... ?series=27

Someone already pointed out the use from No country for Old men. But the movie Smoking Aces had a similar device that one guy used. Pretty cool though

water cannon
