hey guys this week I figured out a way to turn these cheap disposable water
to turn these cheap disposable water
to turn these cheap disposable water bottles into super awesome exploding
bottles into super awesome exploding
bottles into super awesome exploding targets that go off with a sonic boom
targets that go off with a sonic boom
targets that go off with a sonic boom I’m going to show you how to make them
I’m going to show you how to make them
I’m going to show you how to make them these little bottle blasters are so
these little bottle blasters are so
these little bottle blasters are so simple to make and extremely gratifying
simple to make and extremely gratifying
simple to make and extremely gratifying the use for target practice because when
the use for target practice because when
the use for target practice because when they get hit they let out a sonic boom
they get hit they let out a sonic boom
they get hit they let out a sonic boom that sounds like gunshot and rocks your
that sounds like gunshot and rocks your
that sounds like gunshot and rocks your world the best part is they’re
world the best part is they’re
world the best part is they’re relatively safe to handle and
relatively safe to handle and
relatively safe to handle and practically free to make all you need to
practically free to make all you need to
practically free to make all you need to get started is a tubeless tire valve a
get started is a tubeless tire valve a
get started is a tubeless tire valve a one and a half inch steel end cap and an
one and a half inch steel end cap and an
one and a half inch steel end cap and an empty water bottle you can see these
empty water bottle you can see these
empty water bottle you can see these valves are about one and a quarter
valves are about one and a quarter
valves are about one and a quarter inches long and I got this pack of two
inches long and I got this pack of two
inches long and I got this pack of two for about three dollars at a local auto
for about three dollars at a local auto
for about three dollars at a local auto parts store all you need to do is drill
parts store all you need to do is drill
parts store all you need to do is drill a 5/16 inch hole right into the center
a 5/16 inch hole right into the center
a 5/16 inch hole right into the center of the bottle cap so once you get your
of the bottle cap so once you get your
of the bottle cap so once you get your hole drilled out you might just want to
hole drilled out you might just want to
hole drilled out you might just want to use a pair of pliers to clean out any
use a pair of pliers to clean out any
use a pair of pliers to clean out any excess there get that hole about as
excess there get that hole about as
excess there get that hole about as clean and smooth as possible this will
clean and smooth as possible this will
clean and smooth as possible this will give you a little space where you can
give you a little space where you can
give you a little space where you can pull the valve through if you grip onto
pull the valve through if you grip onto
pull the valve through if you grip onto with a pair of pliers and tug it should
with a pair of pliers and tug it should
with a pair of pliers and tug it should lock up into the neck and create an
lock up into the neck and create an
lock up into the neck and create an airtight seal now the next step is to
airtight seal now the next step is to
airtight seal now the next step is to drill a half-inch hole right into the
drill a half-inch hole right into the
drill a half-inch hole right into the center of this steel plug so let’s go
center of this steel plug so let’s go
center of this steel plug so let’s go ahead and do that next okay so now we’ve
ahead and do that next okay so now we’ve
ahead and do that next okay so now we’ve got our finished valve assembly as well
got our finished valve assembly as well
got our finished valve assembly as well as a 1/2 inch hole drilled into our
as a 1/2 inch hole drilled into our
as a 1/2 inch hole drilled into our steel cap the only thing we need to do
steel cap the only thing we need to do
steel cap the only thing we need to do now is bring the two together now to
now is bring the two together now to
now is bring the two together now to make that happen just take the tip of
make that happen just take the tip of
make that happen just take the tip of your valve and stick it into the center
your valve and stick it into the center
your valve and stick it into the center of the hole lock onto the threads of
of the hole lock onto the threads of
of the hole lock onto the threads of your valve with your pair of pliers and
your valve with your pair of pliers and
your valve with your pair of pliers and just give it a little tug and you should
just give it a little tug and you should
just give it a little tug and you should feel the valve pop right into place and
feel the valve pop right into place and
feel the valve pop right into place and it’ll hold securely into the end cap and
it’ll hold securely into the end cap and
it’ll hold securely into the end cap and that right there my friends is pretty
that right there my friends is pretty
that right there my friends is pretty much it super low cost and easy to make
much it super low cost and easy to make
much it super low cost and easy to make and that add an exploding target I need
and that add an exploding target I need
and that add an exploding target I need to do is screw a water bottle into place
to do is screw a water bottle into place
to do is screw a water bottle into place and go pump it up let’s test this thing
and go pump it up let’s test this thing
and go pump it up let’s test this thing out now at this point you can pump up
out now at this point you can pump up
out now at this point you can pump up these bottles with a bike pump and
these bottles with a bike pump and
these bottles with a bike pump and they’ll be ready to go but just to take
they’ll be ready to go but just to take
they’ll be ready to go but just to take things to the next level I created some
things to the next level I created some
things to the next level I created some of these templates on Photoshop that you
of these templates on Photoshop that you
of these templates on Photoshop that you can have for free simply cut them out
can have for free simply cut them out
can have for free simply cut them out and wrap them around the bottle and you
and wrap them around the bottle and you
and wrap them around the bottle and you can see it gives it a whole different
can see it gives it a whole different
can see it gives it a whole different look with a professional-looking
look with a professional-looking
look with a professional-looking built-in target how cool is that simply
built-in target how cool is that simply
built-in target how cool is that simply take something like a bike pump and
take something like a bike pump and
take something like a bike pump and attach it to the valve on the bottom and
attach it to the valve on the bottom and
attach it to the valve on the bottom and we’re going to pump this up to about 50
we’re going to pump this up to about 50
we’re going to pump this up to about 50 to 60 psi but you don’t want to go a lot
to 60 psi but you don’t want to go a lot
to 60 psi but you don’t want to go a lot higher than that not with a water bottle
higher than that not with a water bottle
higher than that not with a water bottle you can see right between about 55 and
you can see right between about 55 and
you can see right between about 55 and 60 psi the bottle starts crackling and
60 psi the bottle starts crackling and
60 psi the bottle starts crackling and it starts changing shape as well
it starts changing shape as well
it starts changing shape as well you don’t really want to get it too much
you don’t really want to get it too much
you don’t really want to get it too much more full than that this one’s ready to
more full than that this one’s ready to
more full than that this one’s ready to blow up what would you compare that to
blow up what would you compare that to
blow up what would you compare that to the gun shot down louder than the
the gun shot down louder than the
the gun shot down louder than the gunshot that was right then add a sonic
gunshot that was right then add a sonic
gunshot that was right then add a sonic boom oh my god now just for fun I went
boom oh my god now just for fun I went
boom oh my god now just for fun I went down to the dollar store and found one
down to the dollar store and found one

store and pick up a pack of sidewalk
store and pick up a pack of sidewalk chalk like these and if you crush them
chalk like these and if you crush them
chalk like these and if you crush them up into a fine powder and load those
up into a fine powder and load those
up into a fine powder and load those into the bottles and when you hit the
into the bottles and when you hit the
into the bottles and when you hit the target it explodes into a cool colorful
target it explodes into a cool colorful
target it explodes into a cool colorful cloud of dust how cool is that alright
cloud of dust how cool is that alright
cloud of dust how cool is that alright guys so in conclusion for very little
guys so in conclusion for very little
guys so in conclusion for very little effort and very little money you can
effort and very little money you can
effort and very little money you can make yourself some really awesome
make yourself some really awesome
make yourself some really awesome exploding targets and the best part is
exploding targets and the best part is
exploding targets and the best part is all your targets are free all you need
all your targets are free all you need
all your targets are free all you need to do is find yourself some cheap
to do is find yourself some cheap
to do is find yourself some cheap plastic water bottles which I’m sure you
plastic water bottles which I’m sure you
plastic water bottles which I’m sure you have just keep in mind that when these
have just keep in mind that when these
have just keep in mind that when these explode they sound like gunshots in the
explode they sound like gunshots in the

good terms with your neighbors well
good terms with your neighbors well that’s it for this video guys let me
that’s it for this video guys let me
that’s it for this video guys let me know what you would use these exploding
know what you would use these exploding
know what you would use these exploding targets for in the comments below and
targets for in the comments below and
targets for in the comments below and I’ll look for you in the next project
I’ll look for you in the next project
I’ll look for you in the next project video I’ll talk to you then I think I
