Simple Flamethrower

I'm kind of a pyromaniac so I instantly wanted to make something that other people could make with stuff around the house/garage. Enjoy making flames!

Materials

1 washer with a small hole

a caulking gun with a lever release

a stick lighter, preferably one that doesn't have the lever that releases the gas

a can of engine starter or some other can that can spray far and whose contents are flammable

Drill Hole in Washer

This will be placed in front of the engine starter so it will spray.

Tape Release Down

This will prevent a constant spray from your can.

Tape Lighter to the Bottom

The lighter needs to be placed so that, when lit, the flame comes up right in front of the path of the spray.

Stick Your Can In

Now all you have to do is light the lighter and pull the lever and...poof! Fire!

First Test

It worked pretty well in the end.
