  • Brad,

    That is so cool. You need to be on TV. I wonder if I can get you on the Ellen show....hmmm.

  • Thanks. It took quite a bit of adjustment to get that funnel to center! Glad you enjoyed it.

  • Cool. What are the dimensions of the tornado you made? I have a smaller scale version that I made, but I'm trying to scale it up so I would like to know how big it is please.

  • Chamber: 20" X 20" X 48", vacuum pipe: 4.5"ID, four jet pipes: 1.5"ID, vacuum provided by leaf blower, air jets provided by a second leaf blower. Good luck

  • Sweet model; does that actually simulate real atmospheric conditions?? Great work!!

  • The only conditions this device replicate are the rising column and side pressures perpendicular to the column to produce a funnel as a demonstration device.

see all
