Sounds good... Tell me when it will actually be for sale

People never take me seriously when I say that car washes bring in huge amounts of money. My friend's theater group brings in over $2,000 for a saturday of washing cars. You just need to have a sign that states you are a group making money for student projects. It also doesn't hurt to have a few girls in bikinis! That usually gets the men in.

I never thought of that before (LOL)....

I've been working at Wendy's to try to fund the Advent One project...

I know what we're doing this Saturday!

BTW, great looking prop, but I'd throw in some explosed circuit board in under the control panel.

Cheers, Nick

If there was any exposed space I would consider putting in a circuit. But it's a closed box.

I mean under the box itself, on top of the "explosives".

Perhaps. I do have an old motherboard laying around...

Ok, CamClub, I'm going to give you a chance to explain that.

Truggy, read the thread!

I'm wanting to make my money back on it (around $40 US). And it's not for sale, yet. Hopefully it will be tonight. We're filming the rest of the scenes with it in a few hours.

If you go to your local computer repair store, they often throw out burned out boards that can't be economically repaired! You could get one of these, and integrate it into the bomb!

BUT!

I think the bomb looks great already! You don't need the entire computing power of the NASA Lunar missions to make a bomb detonate!

Ironically a Nintendo had more computing power than those landers and shuttles.

looks like the bomb won't be for sale any time soon. We still have a bit left to use it for and won't be able to film it this semester. Damn popos

Space shuttles have the modern high processing power of the 70s. They can't do much more than a fancy calculator! But, it gets the job done. Unfortunately, not even that as long as NASA keeps losing their shuttles.

The circuits looks cool in movies! I say boost it full of them!

if you still need an idea for the flour to prevent it from reacting with water over time: mix it with a lof of salt, so it wont react this way, instead it will dry completely over time. Add some gre-ish color to make it look like real c4 plastic.

Why don't you just use plaster???

Light grey modelling clay works very nicely as well.

A bomb is a bomb. It doesn't have to look like anything specific as long as people can figure out what it is.

bombs can look like alot of things. THeres the barrel with a control panel, the suitcase with a control panel, pretty much take an everyday item, put a control panel on it, and it could pass as a bomb
