***PUFF*** x 2,341

that is kinda shitty
me and my friend john make ones like 1/4 of the size of that, that make like 200x the smoke
some people say it is imposible to cover a city block with smoke from a smoke bomb but me and john did it with our own breed of smoke bomb (a wet mixture) and yeah it burnd for 20mins with about 6 foot of flame coming ou tof the top of the milo can...lucky we didn't get the cops called on us

"that is kinda shitty" -So are your fricken' posts...

NOTE FROM EVERYONES FAVORITE MODERATOR, PIMPMANN22:
What in the hell is your problem? What is the point of posting ~20 banners, saying "nice work" is extremly annoying. I was notified by Saladtosser of this annoyance and was notified that the banners used to say "f*ck you". Although I didnt see, I have no reason to not belive. I wish we had a "Dumbass" award...

WOW!! wrote:i made one like in the viedo, only i used steel pipe and threaded end caps, it works well but the pipe gets reallllly hot.
Ahhhh,that would be a pipe bomb even though the mixture is slow burning they can still detonate,i know some one that knows some that heard of some one that the idea you use is can explode...SO DONT DO IT... because death or serious injury could result.

stupid me put like 10 grams in a bottle and stuck a sparkeler in it, lit it and shut the lid, a second later the cap popped and the bottle melted.

get a sparkler and bend it so all the crap comes of it then crush it up a bit and wrap it in some paper with both ends twisted up.

This method does not have 100% success rate, but it is pretty good if you do it just right.

Dude, its soooooo easy, go to cannonfuse.com, they have the cheapest, (yet high quality) fuse ever! 65feet of superhot, waterproof 1/16in fuse is only 5.50. But, with shipping it edges on 10usd. U could buy some paper fuse from them though, its alot cheaper and does the same job, but it isn't waterproof. Look around the site, it is COOL.


EDIT: Or, you could use TP that has some charcoal lighter fluid spilled on it. As long as it is not twisted up I think it will work. (I think if it is twisted up it will work like a candle wick and not burn up, it will just burn up the fluid inside then go out.) However, if you use a more volatile fluid, such as gasoline, maybe....

Make it long just in case.......

EDIT: LOL, wait, it is just a smokebomb duh,,,,,,
U no a cool way to make a smokebomb, pingpong balls! Yep! Just wrap one in foil, mold a nozzle at the top in the foil, hold a match under it, and whhhhhoooosh, white smoke pours out. Wonder what would happen if you smashed a whole bunch up,,,,,you can get lots for cheap on ebay you know........ :twisted:

bullseye, its a penny holder, so you fill it up, rip a strip of paper off the mid body area until you see some powder, and light the powder, you got a sec or two to throw it

the paper tubing has many many loose layers, so if you take a thin strip off, and light the powder, the "fire" goes around the tube once until it hits the motherload

a single spark will set it off, so always have the powder in a container if you want to use sparklers

and please don't double post, use the edit button
