what you need:

bike peg
small bolt
an air compressor or any other air source
lighter
drill and a bit depending on the size of hose coming from your air source
alcohol 70%-100%
heat proof glue(iam using liquid cement)
plastic bottle if using hair dryer fan(optional)
air input piece found on all-air tools like nail guns etc.

Plug the Peg

ok u want to first start off by pluging the hole in the  peg were it bolted on to the bike

Air Flow:(with Compressor)

second: you are going to need air to go threw the side of the peg.

If you are using an air compressor you are going to need a way to get hose on. so start by drilling a hole in the side big enough to thred your hose into it.

The next step will show you what  to do if ur using a fan.

Air Flow:( With Fan)

If you are using a hair dryer fan then u need to take a water bottle and cut the top off to make a funnel type shape to  fit  over the motor and fan.(look at pic for a better understanding)

the end of the motor should be inside the bottle top because the air is strongest that way..

Input Piece From Fan.

ok ur are goin to need to cut hole in the cap. once you cut the hole screw the cap on. Pull the two wires that are for the fan threw the cap.Then put the air tool fitting in the cap also. Glue everything on the cap to make it air tight.

Conect It All.

Almost done. get out your fire proof glue and glue the fan to the peg. After that wire your fan up to a power source. And last fill the peg with alcohol just below the holes.

Now With the Air Hose Hooked Up....

This is a pic with the air compressor hooked to it..

Final Part.

How to get it going:

FILL IT WITH ALCOHOL JUST BELOW THE TWO HOLES
COVER THE TOP OF PEG WITH SOMETHING LIKE TIN FOIL (:DO LIKE FIVE LAYERS BECAUSE THE FIRE WILL END UP BURNING A HOLE IN IT:)
SPRAY A LITTLE AXE INTO THE HOLE ON THE SIDE OPPOSITE OF HOLE WITH AIR INPUT.
LITE THE HOLE AND IT SHOULD IGNITE THE ALCOHOL .
WHILE LIGHTING IT ALLOW A LITTLE AIR TO GET IN BECAUSE FIRE NEEDS OXYGEN TO STAY LIT.
LET IT HEAT UP FOR ABOUT A MINUTE.
AFTER THE MINUTE YOU CAN ADD MORE AIR TO GET BETTER FLAME.

IF YOU ARE USING THE FAN U MAY NEED TO GET A CERTAIN SWITCH TO CONTROL THE FAN SPEED AND AIR GOING IN.

ON THE COMPRESSOR JUST USE A VALVE TO CONTROL THE AMOUNT OF AIR OUTPUT....
