If he had real talent and smarts he would have simply attached a motor to it.

I loved the sound effects in the video.
Proves he also has a sense of humor, along with an incredible talent.

Music makes the video IMO.

I bet his wife hates it though, He was probably garage saleing with the wife, saw the flywheel and said "I have an idea"

At that moment, she realized he would be gone for 3 weeks in the shop lol.
