Pocket-Sized $5 Cannon in 5 Minutes!

This is a pocket-sized version of my previous cannon! This cannon shoots carrots up to 50 feet! It is powered by isopropyl alcohol (my favorite) and is the coolest thing you will ever build! As awesome as it is, you must be careful with it! Do not shoot at people or animals! Have fun, but be safe. I'm not responsible for any injuries or damage.

Also, check out the bigger version of this cannon here:

Step 1: Materials.

Materials can vary based on what you have at home or what you can easily find. Use at least 1/2" diameter PVC pipe for the barrel. Cut a piece about 4" long and youre good to go. Next you need a 1/2" diameter PVC end cap. In the second picture, the end cap has already been placed on the barrel. Go ahead and do that now. Also, you need a barbecue lighter and and isopropyl alcohol. And some baby carrots... :)

How do you know you are not a giant?


P.S joking
Okay real question
how do you ignite the alcohol?

LOL... Sorry, I should have gone into more detail on that. The hole you drilled in the end cap is so you can put the lighter into it. Once the tip of the lighter is in this hole about 1/4", click the lighter as you would trying to light it. Once the lighter ignites, it's flame will ignite the isopropyl.
