Does anyone know of a way to make a co2 bomb (with a fresh unused co2 cartridge) i have heard of the ways of making them with empty ones and pouring in blakpowder. But i am interested in a way that uses the fresh unused co2 cartridges and no explosive compounds. any ideas? ------------------ |

The only thing I can think of that could make those things explode would be to shoot it at point blank range. |

you mean the old trick where you cover it in tin foil, stuff the foil with crushed sparklers, leave one sticking out. light sparkler as fuse, once dust ignites, superheats canister - explodes.. |

Ever heard of this stuff called Sterno? it is this stuff you buy in a can, light it and it will burn for 20+ hours. You can get it at a grocery store next to the candles. Anyways, buy a can of this stuff, stick 2 or 3 co2 cartriges in it, light the sterno and leave. The flames will cause the co2 gas to expand, pressuring the metal container to violently rupture. very loud. ------------------ |

yeah good point. this makes me think of my idea. Take a coffee can and fill it part way with gas. light the gas (not on a blustery day) and suspend the co2 container so it is partially in the flame (use mettle wire)this an also be done with a hairspray can that is full to get a cool fire ball effect. ------------------ |

i just did this today: just take a CO2 cartridge, set it on the ground, put a propane torch on itmove at least 20 feet away another thing i did was get a piece of steel pipe the the cartridge fit in, angled it upward, let the nozzle stick out the end of the pipe, and set a propane torch to it...it flew about 200 feet |

a good way to get a nice fireball is cover a can of WD-40 in napalm. lite it. then go far away shoot it with a gun. if you dont have a gun make a small pipe bomb madeof copper pipe. make the fuse very very long. lite the napalm then the bomb. get far away boom. a really goof fireball can be made with flour. get a straw and fill it half way with flour . attach it to other straws so you dont burn your hair off. ------------------ "... always look on the positive side of things, blow things up not down" -- Ragnar Benson |

yeah instead of flour you can use non dairy creamer to make a fire ball, as explained on andy's site. to get some good fire balls build a fire and throw in aerosol cans. they are sweet to see go up. or a lighter, they are kinda cool. ------------------ |
