How to make a flame thrower pistol!

I am going to show you how to make a flame thrower pistol with easy-to-change ammunition canister!

Step 1 Step 1: Make the frame

All the materials: Wood (see below), screws, a spring, a nail or similar, a dremel tool with a cutting wheel (a chisel can also be used but I prefer a dremel), a drill, screwdriver and sanding paper (optional).

First you are going to need a plate of wood, preferably a composite with 5 layers, about 1 cm (0.3 inches) thick, and a 4 cm (1.5 iches) by 6 (2.3 inches) piece of wood, and 4 wooden screws about 4 cm long and 2 screws about 2 cm (0.7 inches) long.
Cut the as following:

This is a great Instructable, but you need to add a main image of the final project to the intro step. Please do that and leave me a message when you have so that we can publish your work. Thanks!

Anyone know what a good spray can-type to use?

[yum399]

Yes, I suggest not using hair spray, as hair spray is oxygenated and the flame can travel back into the can and explode the can, most likely injuring the user.

[tyeo098]

No, the nozzle is too small for the flame to travel through. If it was hydrogen gas then yes, but its an aerosol, the nozzle acts as a flashback arrestor.

very nice flame thrower, the only problem with a canister like this is the flame could come back, and if you held the little flame closer to the can then it would be a bigger flame in the end.

probably the best thing is to make it out of somthing other than wood, but its pretty cool im definitly going to try it out.

Great man. Really. Where did you get the spring?

[ThaNorwegianDude]

the spring was from inside the gear shifter lever thingy on an old bike on the handebars

 How about you replace the rag with a cotton ball dipped in alcohol and skewered to the nail?! And I think I'm gonna simplify this thing!

[lemminggenocide]
