AN INITIATOR WHICH WILL INITIATE
|
||
|
|
COMMON MATERIAL TO PRODUCE DUST
|
||
|
|
EXPLOSIONS CAN BE RAPIDLY AND EASLIY
|
||
|
|
CONSTRUCTED. THIS TYPE OF CHARGE IS
|
||
|
|
IDEAL FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF ENCLOSED
|
||
|
|
AREAS SUCH AS ROOMS OR BUILDINGS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
MATERIALS REQUIRED:
|
||
|
|
-------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A FLAT CAN 3 IN. DIAMETER AND 1-1/2 IN.
|
||
|
|
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. LONG

|
|
|
||
|
|
WOODEN ROD 1/4 IN. DIAMETER
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FLOUR, GASOLINE AND POWDER, OR
|
||
|
|
CHIPPED ALUMINUM
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE:
|
||
|
|
PLASTIC EXPLOSIVES PRODUCE BETTER
|
||
|
|
EXPLOSIONS THAN CAST EXPLOSIVES.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PROCEDURE:
|
||
|
|
----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) USING THE NAIL, PRESS A HOLE THROUGH
|
||
|
|
THE SIDE OT THE TUNA CAN 3/8 TO 1/2
|
||
|
|
INCH 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, UINTIL IT
|
||
|
|
IS 3/4 IN. FROM 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 FOR 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 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 PLATIC-COATED
|
||
|
|
PAPER MILK CARTONS, PLASTIC, OR GLASS
|
||
|
|
BOTTLES. THE CHARGES ARE PLACED
|
||
|
|
DIRECTLY ON TOP OF THE INITIATOR AND
|
||
|
|
THE BLASTING CAP IS ACTUATED
|
||
|
|
ELECTRICALLY OR BY 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
|
||
|
|
PROPORTIONATELY LARGER INITIATORS AND

||
|
|
CHARGES.
