I put a Homemade Jet Engine on my Bicycle

Idea: design and build 3D printable test equipment for testing how powerful your rockets are, it would make for a rocket filled video, allow you to revisit and compare your old rocket projects, and, the test equipment could end up being products you can sell on an integza store. Tomatoes are disgusting!

I'd love to see you create a waste oil burner. It's able to burn most oils (used engine oil, vegtable oil) and typically gets more than hot enough to melt aluminium. Tomatoes are disgusting!

In almost every single integza video i get so entertained by one part of the project I completely forget what he's building, and then remember "oh yeah, he's building a jet engine"

With summer coming I would love to see you create a solar concentrator with around the house items! Possibly with a parabolic mirror or converging lens, you pick!

Ideas:- make a rc plane with home made engines flaps, landing gear, alerons, vertical stabilizers, rudur, wings, fuselage, etc..

Idea: Add a proper nozzle and use some of the leafBlower excess air to cool the outer part of the nozzle

Integza what you do in this video is known as brazing as you are not heating the joining metals to melting point you are merely melting donor metal into the joints/surface of the metal. Welding creates sufficient heat to liquefy a small portion of the joining metals and the donor metal creating a new single piece of metal.

Bro, this is soo freaking insane! I definitely wasn't expecting this, please continue this project!

That was quite "engine rich" exhaust when you had the nozzle. It would be interesting to see a side by side comparison of the leaf blower thrust vs the assembled engine.

I noticed when you were brazing you were feeding in the filler by hand. That works if you need to do it, but in those joints you can also form a ring of braze that slips over the tube and rests on top of the joint. Then cover in flux and heat it up. Because you have the filler placed exactly where you want it before you start the brazing operation, you only need to control the flame and heat evenly. This lets you get much much more consistent joints, and avoid most potential of moving the part accidentally while brazing.

To improve the temperature you could channel a part of the air flow rate around the engine, so it can cool down the combustion chamber and the nozzle. This way you don't need additional control on the leaf blower. You can use an external casing like a turbofan engine and a divergent nozzle at the outlet of the blower so it slows down the air and can be connected to the case.

I wish i would have found this channel long time ago because your content and work you put in it is just amazing. Thank you for your videos!

When you do your jet engine builds like this one, I would love to see a thrust comparison with and without a chemical reaction. For example in this video, how much thrust are you getting with just the leaf blower vs how much thrust are you getting with the leaf blower jet engine.

It’s great to see you starting to work with metal more than just 3D printing

I think if you used an EDF along with a compression stage before the combustion chamber you'd get more thrust, also use 2 different fuels, butane as you used before to rise the temp and once at high temperature use Jet-A. Hopefully you get around to seeing this I belive it would be an awsome build 🤙

Also, a quick tip, spraying water under a second tube over the primary one is a great way to cool one of these basic engines.

3:35 that’s not quite welding as you’re joining your steel with a dissimilar metal. In this case it’s called brazing.

Keep the “turn random thing into jet engine theme”. I’d love to see you try a pedestal fan, a nutri-bullet, heck even try a washing machine! Haha

You should consider to use propane or a butane/propane mixture. Butane burns well but has no power. Propane burns less well but has much power. That's why LPG for gas in summer time has 60% propane/40% butane, and in winter time has 40% propane/60% butane. The reason is that propane requires a higher temperature than butane to burn. In the summer the temperature is high enough to add more propane for better mileage but in the winter butane is added for better ignition. Don't forget a flashback suppressor 3:00 that is called soldering respectively hard soldering because temperature is above 450°C else it would be soft soldering. Welding is fusing metal parts together ;)

Use leaf blowers and light weight materials to create a hovercraft (hoverboard of sorts) with a heavy duty trashbag skirt (much lower friction/forces to overcome than a bike) Mount your leaf blower jet turbine to that with some sort of swivel for direction control and you should have one cool ass/low cost vehicle.
