What about a high pressure nozzle?

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I had a buddy fuse two sets together for me today at work. The first set was so-so but the second set turned out well. The coolest part of it is seeing the ball bearings glowing BRIGHT red after they've been hit with the arc. We are going to work on doing it better on monday... experiment with a few different sizes and surfaces. I'm just curious how the guy in the vid got them to retain their polished nature. The ones we did today fried the surface keeping it from working as well as I feel it should.

Oh and we hooked it up with some high pressure air lines... I seriously thought it was going to create a black hole and suck Metallica's stage in right in there.

Couldn't you just epoxy them together?

I was thinking that or even JB weld but I couldn't find any at work in the short time I'm looked.

Besides, welding is way cooler than epoxy  8)

Yeah but it messes up the surface finish. . .

Glue it.

Then create a vortex to another dimension.

You should not have to distort the surface color to weld it with a resistance weld (no arcing involved).  You will just melt the localized contact points on each ball.

That is more or less what he was doing. Not adding any filler rod at all.

I imagine this working well until until they reach a high velocity and split apart sending metal death balls flying into the air.

It would be especially terrifying.
Is this thing on?
