Wonder if it would go here but it's combustion anyway.

While messing around in my room, I came across some of my old notes I printed off websites that interested me. One site was this http://www.scitoys.com/scitoys/scitoys/ ... ermo2.html (Scroll Down)

Since I had some film containers in my room, I decided to give it a try but with a different approach. I put the wires through the container instead of the lid so I could fire the lid off. The ignitor is the piezo grill ignitor from my Econogun and I used a butane lighter for fuel.

NOTE FROM PIMPMANN22: Moved from GSGQ to SCC. It belongs here because its a combustion cannon not a question. Thanks for making note to the problem in the original post. I also merge a double post.

FIRE IN THE HOLE!!

Lol I just love mini-s. Good work!

I made one of those with a Tylenol bottle that has a pop off top, It is about 3 times as large as the film containers. That was pretty loud
You can make these more like rockets if you put a nose cone and fins on it, couldnt make them too heavy though, you could put nails through the nose cones and make a few of them and have a game of mini lawn darts

haha i made one with a film canister also but it had a disposable camera flash spark, but the cleaning lady threw it out by mistake

hahaha, make her pay for it tell her it was some kind of collectors thing that could have sold for hundreds of thousands. She would probably have a heart attack

a cleaner in as like a made who cleans your house

wtf?
