It would suck if you over cooked the marshmellow to you liking unless you had a small pack of mini mellows with it!

Create a gps plane that will drop the load over his house

I've got it! Step1: Build a long range intercontinental ballistic missile with a payload of marshmallows instead of a bomb. Step2: Program coordinates that are within 200ft of amakerguys house. Step3: Launch it. Step4: Amakerguy retrives the marshmallow payload and hides them. That would solve his problems but, I don't have the money of a ICMM (Inter Continental Marshmallow Missile)

Me too. "Crys in corner because I have no money" lol

Well, you could just dress up as a post man, and deliver a box to his house that on top is filled with carrots that he supposedly ordered from a magazine but on the bottom in the secret compartment is a pack of marshmallows

People say I'm crazy... I can't work out why they say that  :P
May 18, 2010. 6:09 PMdombeef says:

"Hey BUDDY!!! CRANK UP THE ICMM(^)!!!"
"OK!!!"
"BOOM!!!"

Jun 23, 2010. 8:59 PMPastTheVoid says:

Jul 8, 2009. 2:38 PMstruckbyanarrow says:
awesome.... for the lighter fluid container i used a film canister cut in half to fit the tin and the lid still fits and it is leak free!
Jun 27, 2009. 7:07 PMikestarm17 says:
This is awesome but isn't it coal that diamonds are made of? Charcoal is just burnt wood. Good luck! :)
Jun 28, 2009. 5:37 PMpestan says:
epic
Jun 25, 2009. 6:35 PMtechgeek1499 says:
Awesome idea, but just one thing. Can you use something other then lighter fluid and charcol... What about using a T-Light Candle and burn it for a minute or two and take tooth pics stick them in the melted wax and use the tooth picks as the burner!? All you need to do is light the candle!
Jun 25, 2009. 2:21 PMpatapon says:
good luck!
