BULBERATOR QUESTIONS ANSWERED.

ok guys
i am sorry to say but that multi cracker has NOTHING on a cylinder ~1600 bulbs for $220
instead of 160*$4.5= $720
ohh and if u do have a cylinder, can i recomend a tent they make a great dutchie ;)
 
Yeah well, fuckin' obviously, but it's not like they sell them at the supermarket next to the soft drinks is it?
 
Wow !!!! what a piece of Art (See Page 1) Perhaps we could enter this in to the Young Australian Design Awards. I kid you not, what a wonderful invention.

Actually thats a fucking stupid idea.
If you pass out in the tent you face a very very real chance of dying.
Nice knowing you.

Just in the interest of harm minimistaion,i found that people say that they take a berocca to top up their vitamin B12, well, Berocca has 10mcg of B12, and i found some tablets that have 1000mg of vitb12, (yes, 1 gram!!!)
They are called, "Nature's Own" and they rock. Get some!
 
in the process of making a no valve, handheld single bulb cracker
don't have any bulbs on hand atm to measure with, anyone tell me the meaurements or even better which materials / components are best to use and what they called at bunnings / hardwarehouse etc?
 
As I mentioned a few pages back it's a little harder then you may first imagine.
If you don't want to use a valve then you will have to control the expansion of the liquid somehow. Usually you use a large chamber to expand into and then inhale that. But if you want to vent to atmosphere in a controled manner then you need some kind of device to release the gas slowly. Now if you mess this up then you will end up with a mouthful of liquid nitrous. This will not be pretty.
I suggest you do need some kind of valve, but you should be able to bypass the expansion stage and use your lungs as the expansion chamber. But this may be fraut with problems of super chilled gas entering your lungs.
Such a device would have to be carefully designed before you start lab trials, since the high chance of freeze burns of the mouth, throat or lungs. I suggest you hook up with an mech engineer or a refrigeration engineer.
But off the top of my head I would have some kind of contraption that looks like this.

Where the bit in the middle has a diffusing action so if the liquid nang comes out of the bulb then it will hit the diffuse and vapourise before getting to your mouth.
Another problem you will have if trying to inhale a whole nang in a split second without blowing your lungs out.

basically making this, i just need to know measurements and materials :)
 
What you will need is
-1 off 3/4" BSP elbow with female to female ends.
-1 off 3/4" BSP plug
They are the bendy bit and the bit that you screw into the end. You can get it in either brass or galvanised, but to make it really fancy you could go for stainless.
But what your have there is the above plus a BSP hex nipple and a BSP threaded end cap.
The hex nipple is the threaded bit that screws into the elbow.
Or you could make it a bit flashier if you a BSP socket and one BSP reducing hex nipple, and you will need a BSP plug. Then you will need to make a few modifications to get the nail in there, but it shouldn't be too hard. Guess it's hard to understand without a drawing.
And just check to make sure the diameter of a bulb is less then 3/4". From memory it is, but you might have to go for 1".

[edit: my crappy ascii got all fucked up, so it made me get nasty on it.
I had to upload the instructions as a PDF, and excuse the crappiness of it, but it was an attempt to idiotproff the bulberator making process :)
HERE'S THE PDF
WARNING: with this bulberator, (no valve) the chances of freezing yourself are much higher, and you better crack the bulbs slowly, otherwise the balloon is likely to burst, cos it's coming REALLY QUICKLY out of the bulb, with no space between.

Sllip: Pros? HA!
ISI Cream Whippers can hold what?....4 bulbs max?
Whereas a good hom-made Bulberator can hold >10 at a time. AND you get hands on experience and employment at the end of it (employment = bulb lord).
Who's a pro now m0f0?
Whips out his XL balloon.
 
Well technically with a ISI you can unload them into a ballon if you really want. But I mean how often do you cain it more then three at a time? Not that I do that kind of shinanigans of course.
And pros do it like this.
*Driving on the way to Melb from Perth*
*Stops of in Adelaide and walks into a hospitality wholesaler.*
*Walks out with a carton.*
Needless to say the drive from Adelaide to Melb was much more fun.
 
*drools at the thought of a carton*
Either way, there will always be those who like the ISI whippers, and those who like the homemade. Personally, I love my homemade, cos it splits in half and can easily be smiggled into events...making for much party shenanigans. Or, you can go all out like i'll be going for OEF, and make the thing a piece of art, with a floor mounteable balloon stand etc.... :D
Oh yeah, one more thing...

I've thought about designing a small cracker so that I could take them into an event too. But I think the big fuck off backback full of little rattling bottles is a bit of a giveaway. So now I just save them for home.
 
Sllip: That's what gaffa tape is for :D
MWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (evil nang cackle)
 
If you take 2 tissues scrumpled together and squeeze them into the gap between the 2 rows of bulbs in the middle of the nos box and then close the box again, you will find they dont jingle around at all anymore. you can easily fit a few of these 'silenced' boxes into your standard pair of baggy pants ;)
 
But one box ain't enough. All that would do is tickle my fancy.
And before you harp on to me about nang use I know whats good/bad.
 
Sllip, that's the point. You tickle your fancy at the event with a couple of boxes, then you head home or somewhere homely AFTER the event for some fuck-off-nag-whoredom. :D
