Anyone working on suppressors? (lemm.ee)

So I have an idea for a suppressor but I don't have a 3d printer. Anyone who does is welcome to use my idea. I just wanna see if using a Tesla valve or multiple Tesla valves as baffles would work in some way.

I've no clue what a Tesla valve is, but i have made some suppressor stl's.

A quick search shows that a Tesla valve doesn't have a straight center, so you can make it look like one but not exactly mimic it it seems.

Oooh shit I think I just found what I was looking for without the hole though https://www.printables.com/model/158643-3d-tesla-valve

But also reversed maybe because that one looks like it wasn't designed to have a hole in the center

I would love experimenting with this, but it would be a time intensive process.

I haven't even touched my printer since i got my new job as i'm almost always completely exhausted.

Fair enough I feel the same way, if you do end up working on it I would definitely like to see updates! I don't even have a printer or I'd be working on it too lol.

Could you somehow fuse a bunch in a circle together to make a hole in the center? It's kinda hard to describe what I've thinking lol.
