Time to break out the bag of tricks! List the crazy(stupid) things you did when you were younger for halloween pranks. I was always the industrious building type. Always trying to make the better mouse trap. So if you're wondering what to do with those leftover firecrackers from the fourth of july, look no further!
Here's how I made, The egg mortar! -Get a length of pvc pipe about the diameter of an egg, and a cap for the pipe. -Two small nuts and bolts that will go all the way through the diameter of the pipe. -something to support the mortar and make a backstop (bricks worked) -Ammo! (eggs and paper wadding) -Charges! (firecrackers) steps 1. Cap the pipe. 2. Drill a hole the diameter of a firecracker a little above the cap on the pipe. 3. Drill and put the bolts in an "X" pattern an little above the firecracker hole. It's ready! Pack some wadding and an egg down the pipe. The bolts will stop the egg. Prop the mortar up and place something behind it. Place firecracker in hole, Light fuse and stand back. To get more power, put non-flammable items behind the cap to make the combustion chamber smaller. The wadding is also key to the eggs distance. DISCLAIMER: This is a STUPID trick using items for purposes which they were never intended. The pipe could potentially explode, sending fragments of plastic into eyes or other tender spots. DO NOT TRY THIS. Even with proper safety glasses and gloves you could get injured. If something had happened to me, I wouldn't have blamed you for my stupidity, don't blame me for yours. ------------------ Member of ORT Master Barbsman and weilder of the razor wit!

Someone I know once made an orange launcher, quite powerful, used compressed air for charging and oranges for ammo.

Well I guess I've done the usual toilet papering houses, using soap on car windows, maybe a pumpkin smashing or two for hated neighbors years back. Anyway heres a Halloween joke- What do rednecks do on Halloween?.......Pump-kin!

We had it pretty easy for pranks at Halloween...our mom was "the town witch" in a small town and kids were afraid to Trick-or-Treat at our house.
Our house was dark grey and our yard was surrounded by large trees and a large, thick, thorn filled hedge, making it even spookier at night. We didn't get many Trick-or-Treaters, but when we did, we usually scared the pants off of them LOL. One of us would dress in a sheet, wrapped tightly around our face, with white make up covering our face and hands. We would add "Alice Cooper"-like lines down the sides of our mouth with eye-liner and a lot of dark make-up under our eyes. That ugly blue eye-shadow came in great for "blush" on our cheeks, giving us an even greater look of being dead. You could not see our door from our street or even our driveway so kids had to come up a sidewalk (off to the side of the driveway) past the towering trees and bushes that edged the house. Once they reached a place where they could turn to see the porch, there was the ghost, lit up by a black-light to make us even scarier. Not many were brave enough to approach "The Ghost" and collect any candy. I've seen kids drop their bags of candy and run away screaming, too scared to come back and get their goodies. I kind of felt bad about it but then, it was Halloween and it was all done in fun right? http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif ------------------ http://members.aol.com/lasttrueprincess/images/ltp4.gif Is Too!

Hmmmm... One year I had a broken toe, I wore a cheerleading outfit (shudder, that's scary enough eh?) and passed out candy. Except I had on vampire teeth... It was worth it when the mother with small balarina toddler walked up saying "Oh look! It's a cheerleader!" Then I turned around, the kid cowered. "Oh... It's a scary cheerleader." http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif That made it all worth it. Then there was the sign that said "Will give candy for blood." ------------------ "A man who won't die for something is not fit to live." http://animationfactory.angelfire.co...cks_md_clr.gif |

I used to love going trick or treating when I was a kid.
I know, there is a myth that we don't do Hallowe'en in Britain BUT WE DO!!! But we would only dress up as witches or ghosts, not ballerinas/aliens etc. etc. I used to love dressing up as a witch and going to Hallowe'en parties. We did apple-bobbing and other games. Because I lived in the middle of no-where the trick or treat thing was relatively small-scale operation. We never had to resort to tricks though, everyone was very generous with sweets. And now I always buy a big box of sweets for the trick or treaters that call at my door on hallowe'en (because contrary to popular opinion WE DO HALLOWE'EN HERE) http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...s/biglaugh.gif ------------------ http://www.gldb.com/wayno/e1.jpg http://www.wizardrealm.com/images/epona.gif Time is an illusion.

Buy a medium sized pumpkin and reomce its guts, fill with concrete. Put top back on and place by the road, but not in it. Wait for one of the idiots who likes to run them over to swerve onto your lawn and hit it. I may have to do it this year http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif
