Hi there !.!.well you want to create your own portable Tornado!. Well your wish is my COMMAND!. First get a board of pine 1 foot by 1 foot 1/2 inch thick then a wooden dowel 1/4 inch !. Start with dowel 18 inches long make a small tornado at first to get your mind in the same ZONE my creative MIND IS IN!.Make sure when you drill small in middle of pine board you do it at an angle so dowel sticks up an out of hole on an angle leaning over to left or right like a moving Tornado!. Then slice Gray White Black an Brown pieces of paper 1/4 inch as long as you can!. First glue with Elmers paper glue a piece of the sliced paper to bottom of dowel at board , spin board an slowly work the paper around the dowel glueing it often going out an up so you make it grow up an out like a tornado adding different colors as you go!.!. Might help quite alot if you get tweezers so you can squeeze paper together when you glue to keep the circles tight an small as you go up!. Once you start to glue you will catch on to what I am refering to!. I do ORIGAMI an that is how I create a BEES HIVe so I can have one hanging from a branch with leaves I create , so I can have a BROWN BEAR with his face pushed into nest with GOLD paper represting HONEY dripping down an I glue little Black specks represting BEE'S on BEARS head an nest I create!.!.!.!.HOPE this helps you Remember!.!.!.!." IMAGINATION IS EVERYTHING!.!.!.A PREVIEW OF LIFES COMMING ACTRACTIONS'!.!.View it in your mind an create it ,pretty simple if you apply your mind Have a Blast!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Your other answerer is kind of scary-
try craft and hobby shops!. You can get a connector piece that goes between 2 soda bottles (liter) and you can swirl the liquid around inside and it makes a tornado/cyclone!. Instructions would be with it-cheap and easy!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
