This is how to make a small "timed bomb", which has a very small flame blast area.

Step 1  

Buy 4 cans of deodorant, available at most shops to any age.

Step 2  

Buy a medium sized model rocket kit (used for firing mini-rockets into the air(hobby)).

Step 3  

Take the "gunpowder" case out along with a small electric set used to spark the "gunpowder".

Step 4  

Take all the heads off the deodorant cans and then tape them together with ducktape, (should look like a small square from above).

Step 5  

Buy some fuse and a rag.

Step 6  

Tie the fuse to the rag.

Step 7  

Place the sparker (for the model rockets) into the "gunpowder" case, then place the fuse into the same place.

Step 8  

Make sure it is tight and cannot fall out.

Step 9  

Get a screwdriver place the rag over the top.

Step 10  

Quickly stab one can of deodorant trying to get a small hole.

Step 11  

Quickly stuff the rag into the hole, trying not to waste too much deodorant.

Step 12  

Run back to the sparker, (which should be a safe distance away) and set off the "gunpowder" case which will then ignite the fuse which will ignite the rage which will blow the can of deodorant up with simultaneously blowing up the other 3 attached to it.
