  1.  @H3110NU  or monitor the starter motor leads for voltage once the engine is running. A motor being driven generates a voltage. If you see a voltage across the motor wires, the clutch didn't release and the motor will quickly fail due to being spun at a rate far in excess of its designed maximum RPM.

  2. I've long been tempted to build a front end of a jet engine with a vacuum cleaner fan. Just has to barely run, not generate significant thrust. Some vacuum cleaner fans are physically strong enough to just barely make that grade. But, as you showed, balancing such a prickasaurus rex would be painful. The explanation of a jet engine, isn't that the Fifth Element's secret? I'll just get my coat... Oh, for smoke, a smoke generator is an aerosol, smoke particles would work better to illustrate the internals, but not be exceptionally illustrative, given the burner can is metal and hence, opaque. Still, pretty cool! Didn't expect the casing to survive as long either, that's a hella of heat to deal with.
