Well, we have a lot of time on our hands out here in wild Alaska. What to do with it all? Build bombs of course! Tonight I’ve been experimenting with several designs. The first design is a PVC pipe, sealed on both ends with epoxy, and filled with shotgun powder and ignited with cannon fuse. The glue is still drying on that. Since I couldn’t wait, I decided on another design that doesn’t require glue. You use aluminum tubing, and crimp the ends tight after filling with powder. It proved very effective. The shrapnel was found ~ 20′ from the crater. You can download a movie of the exlosion here. The file is ~ 7mb, and you will need quicktime viewer. Enjoy.
