"bottle rocket bore"  and "BB" bore.  No particular design just making it as I go uisng a hack saw and drill press.  I want to make one of the "ventless firecracker" gonnes but I don't have any firecrackers.

Ahhhhh.  Minimalist is near and dear to my cheapskate heart!

If you lived nearby, I could provide a BUNCH of firecrackers.  (S.W. Virginia)

Bottle rockets (the SMALL ones) I can no longer get in S.C., but next time I'm through Indianna I'll stock up.  They seem to be ideal candidates for this application.

Is that copper tubing with a port to light the bottle rocket?
