Posted: mmmmm mmmmm! I can almost taste the sooty goodness. I would have just stuck with getting two large salmon (preferably dead) and hold them by the tails. Best to wear chain-mail gloves to get a good grip. Then, just spin them. The oily scales would make a wicked rainbow effect.

Posted: to make poi that spin themselves, you could have 2 coconuts on 2 strings. The coconuts would spin by virtue to having birds pullin' them along.
