Introduction: KEY--BANG

About: Now I am a retired person, who enjoys life and making small things to pass the time keep myself busy.
THIS INSTRUCTABLE IS MENT FOR KID'S ABOVE 13 YEARS.

I will instruct you how to get a BANG from a Key.
When we were kids we used to have a lot of fun with this KEY-Bang.
It is very easy to construct and easy to use.
So happy hunting.

Step 1: STEP-1

THINGS YOU WILL NEED:-

1. An old Key.
2. A NAIL which fits into the Key.
3. A wooden Batten.
4. A piece of string.

Step 2: STEP-2

First of all take the wooden batten and shape one end so that it fits into the bottom hole of the KEY.
Fix it tightly to the KEY and tie it firmly with a string or thin wire.
Tie a iron nail with string, and tie the other end to the wooden batten.
File the pointed side of the nail and make it flat.
See the Photograph for guidance.
Your key bang is ready.

Step 3: STEP-3

Now for the Ammunition :-

You need a box of Safety Matches.
A Cutter or Knife to scrape the gun-powder from the match stick.

Making the Explosive.
1. Scrape 5 or 6 Match stick.
2. Collect the scraped powder on a piece of paper.
3. Pour the collected POWDER into the KEY.
4. Put the NAIL into the Key firmly to block the powder from coming out.

NOW YOU ARE READY FOR A BANG.

Step 4: STEP-4

Pull the String to make it straight and tight so that the nail does not fall off by gravity.
The position of your KEY BANG should be in the position as shown in this Photograph.

Step 5: STEP-5

Bang it on a wall or any hard surface and see what happens.

WORD OF CAUTION :-

DO NOT PUT MORE GUN POWDER.
POWDER FROM 6 MATCH STICK IS ENOUGH.
IF YOU PUT MORE GUN POWDER IT MAY BLOW A HOLE IN YOUR KEY AND BECOME USELESS.
THERE IS NO DANGER PLAYING WITH THIS KEY-BANG.
IT IS LIKE A FIRE-CRACKER.
