@jaydenlawson Yes, there is a system that works much better. A larger pipe and more straws is most helpful. If you can find a 16" or so piece of 8" diameter pvc you get a much better result. Also the funnel is not the best for laminar flow, but a straight cap and something to cut the water into shape. Many many things can be done (and have been done) to make it better.
You are probably nearly there. One thing though, and it seems to catch a lot of people out - is you need a very SHARP transition to your jet - using a funnel (especially with a long tip) to transition the flow will re-introduce all the turbulence you are trying to remove. As strange as it sounds, a perfectly flat plate with a knife-sharp edged hole (with no taper to it from the water side - the taper should be on the outlet side) will do the job very well. Try that!
Did you end up optimising it for a better flow?

Just wondering... What is this for? Why are you making this? What are you trying to achieve? What is it used for? What does "laminar" mean? Thanks:)
