Well, if those are home made turbine engines (which fits with redneck ;D ) then they used turbochargers as the base.  As there's nothing to start the turbo's turbine wheel spinning (where the fun happens) it's common to use a leaf blower or compressed air to get the process started.

The leafblower is used for engine start.
These are a similar but simpler construction than the German WW2 pulse jet.
I remember something from "scrap heap challenge" where they built one to power a vehicle.
Here 'tis


Looks like a good project for the easter break

Smartest thing I've read all day.

I can't believe the navy is letting you out.

Thanks for the explanation!  Those sound like some fun & look easy enough to build
