ya, that was the gun that the guy who had me make this thing showed me right at the beginning. i remember when it was orriganally posted on the awful forums

in that video i was only using 50psi of pressure in the chamber, i wonder how far the flame would go with 90psi and a slower burning fuel. ill let the guy who im shipping this thing to find out :wink:

ah yes, flamethrowers. i have my own design for a very efficient one, but i am unsure of the proper fuel source. from what i have heard denatured alcohol is the safest, but i couldn't find it anywhere. is there any other cheap source of fuel for a flamethrower?
