Only in America

Man, that takes me back to my early 80s flamable aerosol days. Not that I condone any of this.

We used to make shotguns - steel pipe, pop a 12-bore cartridge in the end, slot it into a big wooden block with a groove cut out to hold the pipe, six inch nail in the other end of the block (firing pin)

Hammer - nail - booom

What was the recoil like on one of those dude?

suprisingly small actually Knox. The only danger was that the whole assembly had a nasty habit of swinging and pointing in risky directions as the hammer impacted with the nail

Ah them were the days

AND

The drainpipe bazooka

1 2metre length of drainpipe
1 box of vampire rocket fireworks

Mucho fun - apart from the time I aimed a bit too high and the lit rocket dropped out of the drainpipe behind me and went off at my feet...

It's a lot safer nowadays. The valves are designed to be one way.

Not that I've tried it and gained a 2 ft flame or anything

2ft? Amateur. Try a big can of WD40 with the little red pipe in place- you can feel the heat on your face even if you hold it at arm's length. A 6ft flame is easily doable

Rich :¬)

Well I'm sorry I value my life










*Makes mental note of Rave's suggestion. Will try it sometime.

ROLF, it is fine to laugh, he is in America, plenty of distance between us !! As long as they stay there we are fine ...

Knowing the US thats probably perfectly legal, he probably has a constitutional right to own a flamethrower, you need them to defend your self against the mozzies you know

Yea, look, there he is getting the little buggers now:

I can just picture it now. The strange kid in the street, he starts walking down the road with his new 'water gun', and everyone is running inside locking the doors
Look what I made
