Step 1: WICK!!!!!!!!
It's time to make the wick. You can skip this step by just using a round wick from a lamp. Take your four pices of string and twist them together then tie a knot at both ends it should look like the picture. Next, rip your Cotten ball into smaller pieces.pit the pieces into the casing useing a toothpick then insert the wick up to the knot. Useing the toothpick move the Cotten balls around the wick
Step 2: WAX BULLETS!!!!!
Take your beeswax and melt it in your spoon with the blowtorch then wait till it starts to cool onece it's almost solidifying pour it into your hand and shape into bullet sized thing about 2cm long and 1cm wide
Step 3: TRIMMMING!!!!!
Once your wax bullet is finished and your hand is burned (ouch!) you can get your razor blade and trim the bullet up the aproxamet size is 14mm high and 9mm wide at the base. Chop chop.
Step 4: CASTING!!!!!!
Take your kenetic sand and put it in a container deep enough to comfortably fit the bullet. Then push the bullet into the sand leaving the top flush. Take it out by stabbing it with a needle and pulling it out. Take your spoon and clean it thoroughly of all wax then put your pewter into the spoon and melt it with a blowtorch then pour it into the mold let cool for 5-10 minutes
Step 5: DRILLING!!!!!!!!!!!!
Next we will drill out the inside of our bullet so it fits on the casing first we will use a 1/4" drill bit drill it until your pretty deep then switch to a size smaller and then a size smaller and so on until your deep enough to fit your wick comfortably
Step 6: SPARKER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Next you will have to rip the sparker out of a lighter. First make sure it's depressurized by thanking a thumb tack and placing it over the hole in the bottom of the lighter next hit it with a hammer and pull it out you should hear a little hiss. Next take some clippers or pliers and crack it open. Make sure not to crack the flint tube in the middle of the two chambers.
Step 7: Attaching the Sparker!!!!!
now, you can just glue the sparker on like me or you can use a small metal tube and the tip of the sparker and the grinding wheel. your almost done now!
Step 8: FINISHED!!!
