how can I make better cobs?

by improving your craftsmenship my friend. you could use a more powerful le might i suggest 70/30 flash filled 2/3 the way full. that will give you a good band. also you could attach an aresol can to it make sure it says something like warning:flamable, then when your cob explodes it will make a fireball. nifty eh. if it doesn't do that attach a few bb's to it to rupture the can. be careful.

Better than what?

BTW, what is the best store to find cheap CO2 Cartridges in the USA?

And could you attach a M-80 to a aresol can and have the same explosive effect?

In my experiances this doesn't really work, or at least you won't get the desired affect. I suggest that you just stick to whatever you do, and do it safely . To make a cob better stick it in a pipe, or a thicker casing. Be sure to be as careful as you can, as these things are very dangerous!

Probably not because the M-80 wouldn't puncture the caseing of the aerosol can. But maybe if you attached BB's to the M-80 like king vitamin said. But just becareful because those BB's will being flying pretty fast. I suggest putting BB's in between the can and the M-80.

The cob Would work better than an M-80.

This is because the m-80 is cardboard tubing and the cob is metal, therefore throwing shrappnel(sp?), therefore ripping open the aerosol can, therefore exposing the flammable contents inside of it so the bp has a chance to blow it up...Therefore....

Yea I guess your right about the M-80... but does anyone know where to get real cheap CO2 Cartridges in the USA (retail stores) to make cobs with ??

walmart, by the paintball and bb guns.

What would happen if I taped a cob to a whip creme dispenser cartridge filled with N2O?

It would probably burst the whipped cream container, and probably throw the N2O container a couple feet away.

You will be much better off using a butane canister. There are many better ways of getting rid of whipped cream than blowing it up, if you know what im talking about.

Hahaha lol. Oh yes, I know what you're talking about.

Actually though what I meant was whip cream CHARGER not dispenser. What would happen if I taped a cob or a large paper salute (which I would prefer) to an N2O (Nitrous Oxide) filled whip cream charger, like these -
