I mean seriously, dragons? they're everybody's favorite lizard! partner it with a flamethrower, you're about to steal all the eyes this halloween!

Mount it on a wall, wear it on, it's all good. IT STILL BREATHES FIRE ON IT'S OWN!

in today's episode of makersauce, we'll be making a supposedly paper mask but heck, paper? i'll pass.

so i then asked myself, what's cool? oh yeah. METAL. so that's how the idea came about.

The fire-breathing steel dragon helmet.

....i got a gut feeling i'm calling it khaleesi.

Anyway, i am not responsible for any injuries. Please be aware of what you are doing. enjoy!!

Are the instructions too vague? worry not. most of the instructions are found on the document once you purchase your copy from the wintercroft website.

I forgot to mention, Here's where i got mine! https://wintercroft.com/collections/masks/products...

just follow everything as indicated. essentialy, it's all the same....sike! metal is always cooler.

Goodluck!

  • so i ran out of time to design a remote controlled flamethrower and my eyes are really swollen, now 36 hours in, still staying strong so far ;)

Things you'll need to build this simple flamethrower:

  • Copper tubing
  • Empty bottle that your gas canister would fit in
  • electrical tape
  • cutting pliers
  • Cutter blade

First, cut the bottom of the bottle off, make sure your gaas canister fits snug. Make sure your copper tubing is able to hold the gas valve in place when you press down on it.

Next, Fix the copper tubing through the mouth of the bottle. luckily mine was a shampoo bottle so i made use of the hole already present there, Then you're gonna want to bend the copper tubing into the shape of the bottle so that it gets a hold of it's shape, you'll need this once you start taping it in place.

Mummification: wrap the copper tubing and bottle top in electrical tape and voila you have your five minute flamethrower.

Just press the end of the gas canister down and you should expect really really cold gas coming out of the other end.

Next you're gonna want to bent the copper tube to the shape of your helmet. make sure there is a little piping sticking out between the dragon's teeth and wear a balaclava and goggles while you're at it, i am not responsible for your injuries, please be aware of what you are doing. enjoy!!
