This video shows how $15 and half an hour of assembly can produce a working barebones laminar flow nozzle that attaches to a garden hose.

@4444mongo The you, friend, ought to take your urethra out on the talk show circuit.

Er... don't know what she thinks, but 2 1/4 inch holes only has half the flow capacity of the single 1/2 inch diameter hole.

.098 square inches total area for the two 1/4 inch holes vs .196 square inches for the one 1/2 inch hole.

@WyldeSoul 1:43 "In this example the 2 1/4 inch holes offer half the area of the 1/2 inch hole..." "If you use the same water pressure for the 1/2 inch hole that you use for the pair of 1/4 inch holes you'll probably blow the pair of 1/4 inch holes right off the front of your nozzle!" Not everyone learns through audio. You may want to review the written transcript in the more info box for a clearer way to access the information.

This is so cool. With salt water it can be used for antenna. Now i need to find out how to make a magnetic coupler for the antenna.

[gryphern]

@DanishM1Garand @DanishM1Garand See, the only problem I can think of with that is the supersaturated salt water (brine) would kill your water pump. But it would be so easy to change the length of the antenna by changing angle and water pressure. If you can find a ham radio list serve ask around for ILA designs, you can make them for pretty cheap. David Hatch (N9ZRT) has done a bunch on this topic. Google "Ionic-Liquid-Antenna-a-Viable­-Antenna-for-Amateur-Radio" for a schematic.

I think she likes duct tape!

[Mr3wheeledbike]

[wintersnowolves]

Is it possible to have a laminar flow follow a tube? just its coming up to halloween and I was thinking if you could make this portable the ghostbusters energy beam things would be perfect for this
