Oh, and don't forget one of the greatest tricks of all!

Set your torch just right, then snuff it out on a piece of wood,

without
turning either gas off. Stick the end of the torch in a garbage

bag, and
fill it up. Use a kitchen size, if you fear the big one!


You are either really bad at adjusting a torch, or you have never

really
done this.

Something as small as a half gallon milk carton can be deadly, and

plenty of
bang for the buck. A garbage bag could easily kill someone.

I saw a 6' joint of 4" heavy wall pipe launch a dead rat over 1000'.




Seems to be plenty of people out there doing it.

Several other videos on the same page.

We used to go fishing for catfish in a local creek when I was just a
kid, using carbide lantern pellets.
