    I found it interesting that your prototype didn’t work. It looked like the fan was just too heavy. I was also wondering why you went with just the 1 hole in the bottom for the final version? Don’t most hover crafts have a bunch of little holes? And your final fan sounded like it was really really loud. Definitely not something you’re going to creep up on your neighbors with.

    That’s pretty cool. When I was a kid I was inspired by back to the future and their hover board, so I made a model of a magnetic hover half pipe and board. I never made a full size one. Uh ohh, you’ll probably steal my idea now and get rich. Oh well, I’m over it.
