Title: "Retiring" the old gelatin blocks
Post by: Raggedyman on September 03 2014 10:37:10 AM MDT
So, thanks to your support, I got a payment from YouTube of $103.41 and it only took 10 months to do it. At this rate, in a few years I could be making $200 even $300 dollars in a year!  ;)   Still, the gelatin is getting pretty opaque, although it still calibrates properly, so I've decided to purchase new gelatin with the proceeds and retire the old. Last year I retired the gelatin by running it over with a pickup (below). This year I think I'd like to do it with tannerite. If you have a better idea how I should do it, though, I'd love to hear it. I'd also like to hear your opinions on how I should place the charge. I could place the charge on top of the block or in front of it, or I could put the charge underneath the block. Which location do you think would be most fun?

Underside will direct the blast upward through the block... BOOM!  Or you could just shoot it with the Devastators!  LOL

A guy on the Arizona Shooting forum offered to let me test using his full auto MP10 clone. That, loaded with the 156 gr Devastators would make short work of the block.

Freeze it, then shoot it with that 416 Rigby handgun...

Next time you make it add cherries and bananas and serve it for desert after dinner.  Little bit of red food coloring and nobody would know. 

I won't tell.
