Hello and Hello! Today, before the new year, I will show how easy it is to make a simple pneumatic cracker that will not kill anyone. All the materials for creating this clapperboard can be found at home, even without some kind of workshop.
We need:
- Capacity (I have hand cream), the capacity should be twisted.
- A tube (made of dense material), I have thick and thin ones from foil or from cling film. It will also be very cool if there is a PVC pipe with an inner diameter of 25 mm or more.
- Piezo (from a lighter or burner)
- Single-core copper wire (aluminum is also possible)
Now let's start the robot if we found all the necessary materials. First of all, we make a hole in the center of the can, of course the bank should be plastic. The hole should be slightly smaller than the barrel pipe. The hole can be cut with a thin hot knife or cut with a drill with a cutting disc or milling cutter.
Now glue it with silicone, epoxy or like I hot glue. You can wipe the surface of the plastic with sandpaper and degrease with gasoline or alcohol.
In cans, we make two holes for the piezo element for the fluid fuse. There is one wire in the piezo, and on the other hand, a metal contact to which we fasten the wire and insulate it with thermo glue, then glue it to the bank.
That's what happened now only to set a gap of 2-3 mm, so that there would be a good spark. The use is simple, we inject air freshener or something that has a flammable sign 1-2 times will be enough. The test is also in the video which is fixed in the article.
Thank you all, Happy New Year!
