OneEyeCharlie Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Ooohhh!! Oooohhh!! Where'd you get it??!! I would like to know also, Maby theres a simmiler sorce near me. Check with a car dealer that participated in Cash for Clunkers. They were using it to kill the engines of the trade ins. They'd drain the oil, pour in a couple of quarts, and then run the engine. I found a dealer that sold me some leftovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I dont go through Kno3 as fast now that school started. i only used up my remaining stock, becouse i was sick this week, and needed somthing to do.

Twotails Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 I made a 4in one before, dident shoot it out of a morter, had it suspended in the middle of a sandpit by strings (it was roughly 200ft from the ground) this was simply becouse, i dident feel like launching it, and i worked out good, exept, i had trouble getting it up there, the strings kept getting tangled.

RUUUUUN Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Where did you find something 200 feet tall?? That is huge! Was it between 2 hills and you ran a line like 1000 feet straight across from peak to peak or what??? How did you fuse it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twotails Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Its a large sand pit around it are some sparce pin trees i ran fishing line across the pit, and cut the same length of nylon cord, as i had fishing line (used the fishing line just as a mesuring device), tied the cord to a tree on one side, marked the middle of the pit on my cord, and tied it to a tree on the other side. I attached a dummy shell to long peice of line, and threw it over the suspended cord, tied that to a tree, the dummy shell was now on on the ground tied to the cord. I removed the dummy shell, and tied the real one on, i had put a long fuse on the shell, inplace of the timefuse. (were talking an 2 entire rolls of cannon fuse, thats like 10ft each roll) that fuse burnt for maby 2 seconds per inch, so i figured 20ft was enough (ended up being a waste of fuse but it was worth it) I had 4 minutes to raise the shell, and get into viewing position. I attached a peice of blue falling leaves, i had about 6 inches of it on the bottom of the fuse to give me extra run-time. I lit it and ran, up the sandpit, and too the tree, hoisted the shell up, and still had like a minute of fuse left. I sat back and watched. It went off, but in my opinion, not worth the effort, i'll stick to small shells. That is how i improvised my 4inch shell, and how i waisted 20ft of fuse(luckly i bought it cheap enough i dident care) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twotails Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Its on a slight sloap, so it works well, unless the pit(cuz its in b a river/swamp) floods, but that can be good if it freezes solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am always on the lookout for part time work or jobs for my machine shop. One time, I got to work on some helicopter parts that were giving the maintainers fits, and about 2 hours of work netted $400! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flying fish Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 So 23 years old and my 21 yr old friends finally broke me into drinking, lol. It was a good time though.
