I recently procured about 18 birthday candles leftover from a friend’s cake. Of course, I decided to melt them all together to make one normal-sized candle with 18 wicks. Please be carefull if you try this. I am not responsible for any loss of limb, life, eyebrows, or property that might result from the use of this instructable.

This is a very simple project that will cause a lighter to either explode or shoot somewhere. All that is required for this project is a cheap plastic 50 cents lighter with an adjustable gas height switch.



Sorry I don’t have pictures of me doing this. As you can tell from my other instructables, I don’t like to post things that I don’t have proof of doing myself, so you’d know that all my things are "Billy tested, mother approved". Its just that being in a dorm now, they are a lot more strict then at home, and they probably would not approve of setting fires in front of the building. Not only that, but the 911 call center for all of NYC is the next building over, and I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t approve, they don’t even allow people on the sidewalk in front of that building. So I guess the best thing that I can give you is my word that Ive done this project many times, its fun, and actually relatively safe compared to the other things I’ve posted.

This instructable describes how to build a flaming whip. Its a very simple and rewarding project, but the final project can be dangerous. You will be dealing with a flaming metal chain which gets extremely hot. You would not want to get any part of this accidentally wrapped around your body. Apart from all the danger though its really fun and produces a loud whooosh of fire every time you swing it.
