No, the idea of acetylene balloons is new to me. Haven't tried one. Do they make your voice funny??
Another week or two of this and we can start a thread on vegetable guns. I've still got my potato cannon out in the shed - SpudZooka! I had the design for a radish pistol, but never made one.
Acetylene balloons explode We made some at random torch settings when we were teenagers. Then we got the bright idea to use a big gallon jug and set the mix just right. My friend's father ended up falling off his chair on the front porch and further use of his welding tanks was curtailed
