all right here are some pics i have gotten over the past 2 weeks.enjoy.

the big salute it is 7 1/4in long and around 3/4in inside diameter. the tube is paper and was really hard, i couldn't bend it between my fingers. very hard. it was from one of those killer bee fountains. i then added about 7 layers of duct tape and 3 layers of strapping tape (good cloth fibres). i taped it real tight. the comp. is whistle mix about 1/4 cup of it. that be alot. 1/4in hot glue endplugs. and about 6in visco fuse i will add a 4in match fuse for longer delay. i put 2 books of match head around the fuse to insure egnition(sp). i will light it some time this year

Blown end plugs this was a hastily prepared salute using match powder and whistle mix. the plugs were wads of craft paper rammed in there hard. it blew them out.

this was the remains of a bottle blaster i made. i used whisle mix once again filled half full and for more bang i put about 2-3coats of plastic cement. let it dry added a total of 4 layers of tape. i light it and put it under an old blue metal dish. i put a big rock on top to muffle sound. it did not muffle to well when that thing went off it shook things up. the last shot the rock 3feet away from the pan. the pan shot towards me and it had a big dent. my mom came out and yelled at me. fun stuff.

this is all i could salvage.

those are the remains of cob the 2nd. the le was smokless powder filled to the brim with visco added. i did do somthing stupid thou. i taped abou 10 screw and some nails around the cob. to see the effects it would do. i put it in a wooden chest about 1/4in thick wood. it was made in the 50's or so, so it had good craftsmenship to it. i lit it put it in the chest and ran, oh god i ran. my brother video taped it, it seemed like eternity waiting for it to explode. and then a thunderous kaboom. the blast knocked the hinges and closing board off the chest. after we got over the feeling of excitment and changing our pants(not not really) we inspected the damage the explosion drove the nails in the wood as one would expect.one of the nails was poking out of the other side of the chest!!! some of the screws were broken and some screw didn't go into it but had the frame of the screw enbedded in the wood. it was awsome.

this is all that remained after i li an m-80 on the fourth. it might be a little bigger than the rest. i will let you guess the comp. the plugs were craft paper soaked in white glue and rammed it there real good. i painted it red for that authentic look. here it is. http://www.geocities.com/kingpyro2002/M-80CASING.jpg

this is a pipe bomb i have constructed yay.4 1/2in long 1/3in inside diameter. whsitle mix again. 1/2in thick durhams end plugs didn't have threaded caps. i will light this soon. the pipe is from sprinler pipes none the less.

You need to find flash powder man. My m-80s get blown to confetti, if you look in the area where the grass was blown away you can maybe find a piece as big as a bb.

I dont even use casings hardly any more. I get 2 oz. sauce cups from a convienience store. Put in 10 grams of flash and snap on the lid, so it can basically self confine. The cups are worthlessly thin, but are enough to get it to self confine. Heres a picture of the cups: http://www.geocities.com/the_pyro_stuff/Containers.jpg

edit:img didnt work try the link.

ur pictures sound awesome but neither of them worked every time i go to one it says the site is under construction. btw u should use endplugs that go in deeper that that cause the hot glue will gut get blown out. Try paper endplugs or clay/spacle usuall the spacle doesn't get blown out.

Yea, I can't see the pictures

*Note - If the pictures aren't working for anyone, open a new browser window and cut and paste the links into the address bar in order to see them. (Thanks to geocities anti-remote linking)



Nice pictures. Thanks for showing us your handywork. The only suggestion I would have is if you're using a slower burning composition like whistle mix in a pipe bomb, use threaded endcaps. For slower burning compositions threaded caps beat anything you could glue on hands down. Also, put your fuse in the SIDE of the pipe instead of through the end, like ICP said that way the powder will burn in two different directions at the same time, so the gas release is twice as fast.

Oh yeah, and if you want to post your pictures from geocities as regular images instead of links, change the file extension of the image from .jpg to .txt and post it like you would any other image. It works, trust me. Most all browsers recognize the file as an image file and they display it as such, but since geocites thinks it's a textfile, they don't block the remote linking of it.

(You might also want to downsize them a bit or issue a warning that the thread contains large images before doing that.)

i hate geocities, they suck. I don't think whistle mix is slow burning at all.

I don't mean it's slow per se, I just mean it's slow comparatively speaking. It's slow compared to Flash, AP, HMTD, etc.

Never, ever, fucking ever use geocities. Ever. Fucking.

what good free services have remote hosting?

http://www.inkfog.com will host and allow you to remote link six images for free, or you can use the geocities trick I posted earlier.
