The Aeolipile - for when you just feel like effin' around for a bit...

First one to make one that lifts off gets a star sticker

Hey Douge I was just looking through your GA page and I see you made an aeolipile a while ago, why didn't you say something? For all I knew I was the first one to do this....
This is about the hundredth time I thought I came up with something only to find someone else did it long ago.
I'm so sick of this global quantum consciousness... It's getting in the way of my attempts at original thought....

That is badass. It's like a steampunk rc helicopter, or like a Amish mini news chopper. I like the idea a lot.

Despite my severe lack of tubing skills I'm gonna try to make one as soon as this goddamn cold goes away...coughing uncontrollably and lamping don't seem to mix for some reason.
