Dust Bomb Instructions

Dust Bomb Instructions by the Jolly Roger

An initiator which will initiate common material to produce dust
explosions can be rapidly
and easily constructed. This type of charge is
ideal for the destruction of enclosed areas
such as rooms or buildings.

Material Required
—————–
A flat can,
3 in. (8 cm) in diameter and 1-1/2 in. (3-3/4 cm) high. A 6-
1/2 ounce tuna can serves the
purpose quite well.
Blasting cap
Explosive
Aluminum (may be wire, cut sheet,
flattened can, or powder)
Large nail, 4 in. (10 cm) long
Wooden rod - 1/4 in. (6 mm)
diameter
Flour, gasoline, and powder or chipped aluminum

NOTE: Plastic explosive
produce better explosions than cast explosives.

Procedure:
———

1) Using the nail, press a hole through the side of the tuna can 3/8 inch
to 1/2 inch (1 to
1-1/2 cm) from the bottom. Using a rotating and lever
action, enlarge the hole until it will
accomodate the blasting cap.
2) Place the wooden rod in the hole and position the end of the
rod at the
center of the can.
3) Press explosive into the can, being sure to surround
the rod, until it
is 3/4 inch (2 cm) from the top of the can. Carefully remove the wooden /> rod.
4) Place the aluminum metal on top of the explosive.
5) Just before use, insert
the blasting cap into the cavity made by the
rod. The initiator is now ready to use.

NOTE: If it is desired to carry the initiator some distance, cardboard may
be pressed
on top of the aluminum to insure against loss of material.

How to Use:

———-

This particular unit works quite well to initiate charges of five

pounds of flour, 1/2 gallon (1-2/3 litres) of gasoline, or two pounds of
flake painters
aluminum. The solid materials may merely be contained in
sacks or cardboard cartons. The
gasoline may be placed in plastic coated
paper milk cartons, as well as plastic or glass
bottles. The charges are
placed directly on top of the initiator and the blasting cap is
actuated
electrically or by a fuse depending on the type of cap employed. this will

destroy a 2,000 cubic feet enclosure (building 10 x 20 x 10 feet).

Note: For larger
enclosures, use proportionally larger initiators and
charges.
