Not so Dusty Sawdust Cannon

Sawdust Cannon. from Ben Stone on Vimeo.

This canon is on top of my Christmas present list.

My brother has been working on a way to make large explosions without the inherit danger of real explosives. Sawdust ignites well when mixed with the right ratio of air, so he devised this contraption. I hope to have an example of this at night- which is a truly spectacular effect! The intent of this is for special effects in a low-budget war film I’m scheming to start soon… err, someday.

Baking flour dust is highly explosive when confined. 55 gallon drum with some flour dust and a sparkplug and you got your war film!
