New ways to destroy old lids

[Posh Tourer :P]

Hang it up, pour some 91 petrol in it and see how long it takes for it to eat through.....

Or just douse it and set it alight, then fill it with rocks, douse them and set it alight again

Get a 2 litre coke bottle

Half fill with cold water

Drop in a frozen chunk of dry ice.

Do the lid up, stand WELL back, and block your ears.

Doing at 3am in the middle street is a good way to the cops round really quick. Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything . Doing it and prodding it with a stick is most definetly not advisable - not that I've done that either - it can give some pretty nasty bruises. Liquid nitrogen works pretty well too - and you don't need the water for that.

well the cold ice bomb is a good one.

But there is the chlorine one or even a little concoction i may be able to whip up for that will have some interesting results .

you may need to run very far / hide behind a wall

Was blowing some stumps out with gelly a few years back.The owner of the place put a 1/4 plug in an open face.We never found any of it.
How about a plastic coke bottle filled with oxy' with a spark plug taped in the neck,run it to a car HT lead an turn the key.
Always wanted to try that

A plastic bag filled with a little oxy/acetylene and a very small fuse inside the helmet. Connect said fuse through neck of bag (sealed after the inclusion of the two gases with tape) and run a significant charge through fuse at a safe distance. It should go 'pop'.

This is the same trick as I saw working in a factory - the factory staff used to get pissed off with one guy who always ran his air horns (doo doo dootle dittle doo doo doo doo) so they taped the bag under the bonnet and connected the wires to the air horn relay. The bonnet wrapped itself neatly around the windscreen and roof of the car.

hahaha
we filled a 1.5 litre coke bottle with oxy-acetylene then glued a sparkplug into the lid and taped it under the bonnet of a friends car and attached one of the spark leads to the spark plug in the lid of the bottle, and sat back with beer and watched the fun
needless to say we all have problems with that funny ringing sound when we get into quiet rooms since
but in the words of francis form malcom in the middle
"TOTALLY WORTH IT"

while this does make a very loud bang, it doesnt actually have any explosive power - the noise is just the pressure form the bottle escaping.
but they bloody well hurt when the go off in your hand

doctor: This looks like...like plastic??
Me: really?...how did that get in there?
doctor: I wonder..

Just tried it out with my 300Win Mag, Awesome. Anyone got some old helmets lying around.

[StoneChucker]

...is wrong with you pansies!!! Put the old lids on, and practice crashing, you know, low side here, high side there, failed stoppie every now and then.

[FROSTY:Me]

hownhell dya think they became "old" lids

[StoneChucker]

Ok, my bad. You are too hardcore for me dude...

[Bob]

Rather than use any mixture of these methods of detroying your old lids, why not donate them to your local emergency services (do you have some kind of volunteer ambulance service like our St. John's Ambulance)?

They NEED donations of helmets so they can practice safe helmet removal.

You never know... it could be YOU that needs this done one day... and it could well be done by someone who learned on one of your old lids.

Just a thought.
