At the end there he seems a little frightened at the fuse he lit... wuss. Obviously never lit a real firecracker (Black Cat) while holding it so he could throw it (only to have it go off prematurely and nearly blow off his fingers). Oh... the blood blisters... how I miss those days.
i'll be giving our mortars an extra boost by first launching them out of the 'spudbastard' which is in the final build stage now.
stun gun ignition, utilizing the handle and trigger of an old drill (it even has a safety!) burst disk pressure regulation, intake and exhaust fans, and a check valve for fuel. Silenced barrel. it's almost done. *this* close.
well it's shown without the 4" to 2" reducer for the barrel, which is almost 4 feet long, over 4 feet with the silencer fitted to it. i wont have time to build the stock for the back but the spudbastard version 1 was fine without one - it's a luxury.
yep, bullpup - that was the idea. only issue is that it's no ambidextrous - it's for right handed shooting only. i'd thought about mounting it underneath the chamber but fastening options were more scarce, and i always want to be able to unscrew the drill case to service the guts.
@Pouring a 40oz. bottle of KABOOM for my homey Billy Mays: Since when does "Can anyone bring" mean to mail? In most parts of the world, that means to physically bring it yourself. I.E. "Can you bring me that cinder block from over there" does not mean take that cinder block down to the post office, buy postage, stick it in the box, and I'll accept it from the mailman in two days when it shows up.
my friend's wedding had sparklers at the end instead of rice. anywho, another buddy's ma was handing them out and had all of them in her right hand and passing with the left. somehow, while standing right next to me, they all go up at once. BIG FLASH. needless to say they rushed her to the hospital to see a plastic surgeon. everything turned out ok, but i believe everyone should learn from this experience and know to never stand next to me while holding a bunch of sparklers. the end.
@nutbastard: i dunno. i have been reading stories about couples spending their wedding night in the slammer. that is always the best sign that you met your soul mate.
i'd take a night in the drunk tank or whatever over having my face incinerated. hell i'd rather lose a finger to an m80 than have my face harmed. i mean, that's my face man, people have to look at it and shit.

BTW, who decided that devices that throw off sparks were the best thing to use around white outfits w/lace?

Or was that an urban myth? I forget.

Some people believe that in order to avoid clean up costs, and to peddle more expensive favors, people perpetuate the legend.

taco bell does that to me.

We've all done it. best to get it out of the way so you can then have a firecracker go off in your hand.
Good times!
