I do have to add that discussing dry ice bombs isn't allowed on the forum, we just prefer to not associate the forum with such devices in case the media ever have a reason for visiting this site.

lol oops, wasn't expecting it to be on the "not to post" list =( sorry about that. editing my posts just incase.

seams much easier/cheaper to just thread a hose barb into a end cap and fill with compressed air.

(bore 2holes on the sides of the caps on both female and male, now put a rivet)

sure it will work but not the right way of doing it, as jsr said solvent weld should be strong enough by its self but the problem is DWV fittings have short socket depth so there isn't much holding it on.

No worries, technically it's not in the rules but has been brought up previously and the Admin didn't want it discussed. Not your fault

removed by moderator. well anyway, your choice, i could get these cheap when you could get yours for... idk, cheap also? depends on location, person and funds.
btw, i cant do it here atm, i'm in the middle of the city, its like saying "ey bro lets make some hot stuff and get us in the slammer".

true enough, it depends on what type of fitting and what type of material is being used, but riveting the piece while doing a neat solvent weld should yield the most results.
its like asking why did they even invent rivets when welding can be used more effectively >,>

why is it so hard to discuss explosions on a thread that discusses explosions
