A spring in you lower hose will prevent it from collapsing at higher RPMs.

I was reading one of the posts on this and the question was where to get one. The $10,000 suggestion was to make it out of some stainless welding rod. My local welding supply house gave me 5-10 pieces. I wrapped it around a piece of round wood and Walla. Instant lower hose spring. I actually used 2 pieces to get the proper length.

Do a search on the topic for the type and size of welding rod that was recommended. I don't remember off hand.
