this is my mini combustion that i built in about 5 minutes. it is made from a pencil sharpener a slushy straw, and a thumb tack. it use to have a bbq lighter on it, but i took it off to use else were because that one kind of half blew up after putting carburetor cleaner in it and ignighting it, that little red thing in my have is what i shoot with my minis.

Use acetylene. Or better yet, just make an electrolysis machine and hold it over the electrodes to catch hydrogen. :lol:
