MEGA 4 Inch Hurricane Balls - aka Tornado Spheres (Not a Fidget Spinner) 

Agreed.

Lol!

Hey, thanks! Really appreciate it!

Alternatively, listen to the air at 6:24 to get the number of times the balls were passing the air gun per second....calculate up to rpm

Anyone else find the sound these bearings making familiar? Fantastic watch

Lol! You're welcome.

Thanks!

Scary too. Thanks for watching!

@@Makebuildmodify Where can you even buy those?

@@Sarnarath eBay

Me either. Crazy strong stuff.

Ha!

Yes, I'm glad I can use them for another project too. Thanks Chad!

Yeah, it was pretty scary standing next to them.

Lol! Thanks Ben. You can show your friends this so they can see that we REALLY are second cousins!

Thanks Bernie!

Thanks!

The hot glue performed way beyond my expectation!

Lol!

Awesome!

That's probably why I kept spinning it up to speed. Captivation > Fear = Awe.

Ha! Glad you like it! Thanks for watching!

Thanks!

I was nervous too.

Thanks!

Maybe so.

Glass worked the best for spin. At least with the few other materials I tested.

I know, right?

Lol!

Ha! You put a funny "turn" on that.

I'm glad I didn't drill them because I want to use them for another project anyway.

Make Build Modify Fair enough. I suspect they cost a fair bit so the hot glue was definitely the answer. Unless the four inch spheres as hurricane balls was the ultimate goal, no sense drilling them out. Good luck with your next project.

Thanks!

Yes! It's crazy!

Pretty scary. You're right!

That's punny!

Thanks!

Yes! Laura Rocks!

She certainly does.

Ha! It is pretty scary to stand next to that thing.

Ha! Safety first! :)

Very! You should come over and see it in person.

Yes! Crazier sounding in person!

I just put a link in the description. Thanks!

Ha! Anything like this is better than tv.

Not a bad idea. Might need some type of clutch for that.

Thanks! I was a little worried that this was too far from my usual content. But it seems to doing okay.

I put a link in the description just now. Thanks!

I also brought some that were two inches across and weighed a little over a pound each

It sound menacing in real life!

Why not, right?..;)

Thanks!

Ha!

Ya-know, whatever... ;) Thanks Dave!

Not a bad idea at all. Thanks!

Make Build Modify I'm undecided if you'll need to divide by two as each ball bearing may be humming. Let me know how it turns out!

I wanted to use them for another project.

Lol! I was VERY concerned about that. Thanks for watching!

Make Build Modify definitely one of my new favorite channels to watch, such great builds! can't wait to see what's next!

Thanks! I'm glad you like it!

Thanks!

I was amazed too. It held far longer than I expected. Thanks for watching!

Yeah, it was a fun experiment.

I might.

I tried metal surface and it had a lot more friction. I think a granite slab would have worked but I had the mirrors so I used them. I agree that epoxy would have worked better. Especially if I had roughed up the surface a little. But I wanted to reuse them so I went with hot glue.

Thanks Jed!

Make Build Modify absolutely my pleasure! Love your videos!!😊👊👊

Make Build Modify absolutely my pleasure! Love your videos!!😊👊👊

I know. It bounced twice and shattered it on the third contact.

Good times!

Thanks!

Search or "4 inch ball bearing" on eBay. There are a couple of sellers that have them.

;)

Thanks!

and spheres......

Yup ;)

Lol!

Yes, terrifying in person!

Aki Ren Good idea!

Make Build Modify +standupmaths just did a video with this method. I'm sure he'd be willing to help you do the same :D

Ha!

Well, it was the hot glue that failed.

Thanks for watching David!

;)

Crazy right?

Maybe.

Those would probably work. But I wanted to preserve them for another project. If drilling worked It I could have used the same holes for the next project. But not welding. Thanks for the good question.

Probably not. But I haven't tried.

Haha! Yeah, it did well.

Ha! right?

Yes they do. Scary right?!

Yeah, I didn't think it would work either. Crazy right?

Ha!

:0

Yes, yes it was.

Thanks for asking Jeremy! I been building a couple of homes (Duplexes). So it's been tough to shoot any shop projects. It looks like the structure work might wane soon and I'll be able to do a few more videos. Finger crossed. :)

Make Build Modify ...you definitely have the best videos on RU-vid, so I'm looking forward to what you come up with next. Make a giant Rubik's cube.

Thanks! I've got a couple of idea in the works.

??

Right?

Hmmmm...

Make Build Modify Yeah, like tube from bycicle/bike/car tyre or something similar cut to desired thickness. With massive amount of hot glue between, of course.

Haha! Yes!

Yes it did.

Lol!

Good point......you see what I did there?

Lol!

Lol! You should have been there. Seriously scary!

Lol!

I don't know when tornado spheres were made, but the fidget spinners were made in '93.

You're right, it does!
