- FIREBOMBs
-
- Most fire bombs are simply gasoline filled bottles with a fuel
- soaked rag in the mouth (the bottle's mouth, not yours). The original
- Molotov cocktail, and still about the best, was a mixture of one part
- gasoline and one part motor oil. The oil helps it to cling to what it
- splatters on.
-
- Some use one part roofing tar and one part gasoline. Fire bombs
- have been found whcih were made by pouring melted wax into gasoline.

- NAPALM
-
- About the best fire bomb is napalm. It has a thick consistancy,
- like jam and is best for use on vehilces or buildings.
-
- Napalms is simply one part gasoline and one part soap. The soap is
- either soap flakes or shredded bar soap. Detergents won't do.
-
- The gasoline must be heated in order for the soap to melt. The
- usual way is with a double boiler where the top part has at least a
- two-quart capicity. The water in the bottom part is brought to a boil
- and the double boiler is taken from the stove and carried to where
- there is no flame.
-
- Then one part, by volume, of gasoline is put in the top part and
- allowed to heat as much as it will and the soap is added and the mess
- is stirred until it thickens. A better way to heat gasoline is to fill
- a bathtub with water as hot as you can get it. It will hold its heat
- longer and permit a much larger container than will the double boiler.
-
-
- MATCH HEAD BOMB
-
- Simple safety match heads in a pipe, capped at both ends, make a
- devestating bomb. It is set off with a regular fuse
-
- A plastic Baggie is put into the pipe before the heads go in to
- prevent detonation by contact with the metal.
-
- Cutting enough match heads to fill the pipe can be tedious work for
- one but an evening's fun for the family if you can drag them away from
- the TV.
-
-
- FUSE IGNITION FIRE BOMB
-
- A four strand homemade fuse is used for this. It burns like fury.
- It is held down and concealed by a strip of bent tin cut from a can.
- The exposed end of the fuse is dipped into the flare igniter. To use
- this one, you light the fuse and hold the fire bomb until the fuse has
- burned out of sight under the tin. Then throw it and when it breaks,
- the burning fuse will ignite the contents.
