propane tank targets

Steve Garret,
Nope, I'll plead innocent to that one, though I'm flattered that you would think so! If I had been around I probably would have been right in there.I did do an earlier experiment while in in my teens involving a .22 and a can of starting fluid. (Ether)I can't remember if that was before or after unsucessful trials of diesel fuel and fertilizer.There isn't much to do, growing up on the farm,and much disappointment. Based on the disappointing results of that one, I would have extrapolated the result of the larger and less volitile (Sp?)tank.
I have an ox/acetelene torch but will decline the tracer experiment. Just filling it would be dangerous enough. You can tell how it turns out. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif

diesel and fertlizer, is actually pretty safe to carry around and transport, What it needs is something to set it off, like a blasting cap or something. I know a guy who filled a coffee can full of the stuff, and put it under an old junk car. It actually lifted the car about 10ft into the air and left a huge crater under it. That is the serious stuff and what was used by terroists to blow up buildings.
 
Times sure are different now.
When I was 8 years old I was setting off dynamite with caps. By the time I was 16 I was hanging it in trees and setting it off with high velocity bullets. If you grew up on a farm 55 years ago those were normal adolescent skills.
