I cant take any pics of my anti personal mines for two reasons.... firstly, i have no hands or feet now.
secondly, my mines are all blown up.

Are you Military or Police? No maybe Military Police? You may have passed some legal papers but definitely failed the "do I have a basic sense of humor?" test.

nothing fancy but I do this was a early prototype , basically a powder version vs cooking it also I was making the fuses out of yarn they were a little tricky & potassium nitrate is like a salt so absorbs moisture really easy just left on the bench will degrade them quick ...black powder fuse is much better , anyway experimenting with different ways, work or fail was good fun

Actually @40mm if you take that in isolation there's not much they are worried about.

Wounder where this stands legally?

I know I know... Retarded right.

very cool, i made one from a small dry powder fire extinguisher. just welded an airline fitting to the top to pressurise it, and some fuel line to extend the nozzle, tied the trigger on, and a tin with diesel/rag for the pilot. then about 60m of air line... just filled the thing with petrol and lit the pilot and walked back to the compressor to plug in the air line.
made a nice effect for a couple dollars of fuel! about a 6x1m pillar of fire straight up (or something like that.... might have been drunk, and it was years ago)
not keen on being anywhere near it though...

I may never take a camp stove into the bush again, just stand and fire, instant roast venison.

ive still got mine
