Instructions on how to modify a spiderman webslinger into a handheld flamethower. Disclaimer: I havent had any problems with this design and I have never been burned by it, however it still is dangerouse and I take no responsibility for anyone who attempts to build this.

Step 1 Parts

The parts list is pretty simple and cheap. Everything together should cost less then 40$

2. Sturdy clear 1/4" vinyl hose. About 2 feet length.

3. Devcon- all purpose adhesive and vinyl mender.

4. Computer keyboard duster.

5. Pouch attatchable to belt, or make one using duct tape( I used an infared thermometer pouch by cutting it down the side, taping it, and adding some velcro) used to hold the can of air.

6. Benzomatic handheld blow torch. Bought on e-bay or at home depot.

7. Rollerblading wrist guard.

8. Zip strips

Yes winshield washer fluid or de-icer works ok. Though, methanol is sort of toxic, they use about 60% methanol in there (or ethanol, or sometimes isopropanol). But 91% isopropyl alcohol works better, cause unlike methanol and ethanol, you can see the flame during the day. The reason they mix M/ethanol and gas (e/m85) Cause you cannot see it if in a crash.

[somebody12345]

You cant see it in a crash? the people trying to save you would just set themselves on fire trying to save your life. stupid Chinese oil companies

[somebody12345]

Thats real smart, you shoot fire right at the wall of your own house.

[ilpug]

This is pretty awesome, although i probably would opt for a simpler method.

[szulli-randall]

You should make one with the Dart Attachment so you can make a Fire Ball Shooter!

[inventeen]

Men, your crazy!

[Matt D655]

I mean M85 and E85 fuels.

[craig3]

This is cool, ima try and think of a way to use a barbaque lighter thing to light it when you flick the wrist thing down, rather than a blowtorch. good idea man!

[didgitalpunk]

you could use 90%alcool it works nicely

haha im soooo sure that will work!!

[thealeks]

i thought it was funny

[Ludwig Gunner]

thats not funny, its dumb

[the_mad_man]

no NOT at the animal. that's just cruel.

[chickenlinux]

You'd worry about the animal, and not the bus full of children...? wow...

[Zaphod Beeblebrox]

seconded

[arpoky]

He's from PETA, what would you expect?

[The Jamalam]

w00t!

[neardood]

dude try zippo fuel, it'l light in a stream it's easy to put out (in case of emergancy) and it is non-corrosive. If you do test it, please let me knoe. I want to see avid of it in action. Looks damn unsafe to me though.

[snowyzn]

zippo lighter fluid sometimes irritates your skin if it gets on you

[MattSwan]

 Does it matter if it irritates your skin? One accidental knuckle touch and BAM no more middle finger tendon.

[zombiehunter96]

eeeeugh, Gore and death and the like don't bother me one bit but for some reason that thought buged me a bit. I get a picture of ..............O_o just ouch

[ZantoD]

 I would also suggest something to cover your hand. If that torch ever touched you...lets say you would lose the use of your fingers.

[Colonel88]

Wait, so the can of pressurized air is ON by default? Because you have to press the little tube DOWN to release the valve. How do you make the air go into the tank by default? Please help, I want to know how to make an un-pumpable watergun or something :D

[cdousley]

if you wore those blue gloves from the tazer glove (insulater) and covered them in aluminum foil (flame resistant) it would proctect you petty good you could maybe combine them

[Raisian]

This will be perfect for my Colonel Mustang cosplay!

[Matt21497]

you and killerjackalope would be great friends.

[mettaurlover]

i'd attach the flame source to the water/flammables tank so that it wasn't on your wrist. less chance of accidentally burning your fingers that way. also looks cooler.

[everywhere]

alcahol is good

[shabaki]

instead of using torch to ignite try something like a spark plug or a jacobs ladder style contineos flow (for as long as needed)

[kenprush]

I like the idea, but it seems really stupid...

I'll let you know how it works! =)

[Rock Soldier]

lol

[pbpenguin5]

a really great fluid to use as fuel is WD-40, bug-spray also works well. but in my testing, WD-40 is bigger and kinda cool.

[peach_fart]

bod deoderant spray burns well, comes out fast and goes about 3-5 feet. also, its loud as hell when you burn it in a bathroom stall ;)

[Rock Soldier]

Please tell me that's from experience.

[gameboy7oa]

bug spray is actualy a bad idea to use the last time i was messing with it i almost passed out from the fumes

[Rock Soldier]

Yeah, not the best idea.

[pbpenguin5]

good point

[ramboboy]

that was aswome
