there was talk of possibly going to ohm2013 by boat. and simultaneously, talk of home made from-junk jet engines.

when the two were combined there was some interest.

so. who's in?

all we need is the following

  • a boat
  • a car turbocharger
  • a spark plug
  • an oil pump
  • electronics for spark+oil pump
  • a custom made flame tube and exhaust
  • fuel. lots of fuel

here is a pretty good instructable on building one
