Real IED's are apparently rather sleek, with little or no exposed circuitry or wiring. Putting that stuff out in the open, as movies and TV usually do, is just an invitation to an accidental detonation during assembly.<br /><br />@ damanoid<br /><br />Personally, I think the best course of action is to build a relationship with your local cops. I think you would be surprised how cool they think stuff like this is.<br />Propnomiconhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02073463298965255652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-423050459919800481.post-67157803611940130872014-03-29T19:38:20.016-07:002014-03-29T19:38:20.016-07:00This seems like a really neat idea that is potenti...This seems like a really neat idea that is potentially also a really bad idea. You'd have to be really, really careful to monitor who does and doesn't catch an unattended glimpse of your really cool prop. Lots of other props invite display; this one seems to require that you never, ever leave it visible and unattended.damanoidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-423050459919800481.post-9386207337239204802014-03-29T10:39:37.857-07:002014-03-29T10:39:37.857-07:00My friend and I made some mock pipe bombs for a co...My friend and I made some mock pipe bombs for a cosplay he did of Bill in 'Left 4 Dead' <br /><br />We were extremely proud of how nice and authentic they looked as capped pvc with brushed silver. <br /><br />Upon looking at them longer, we realized they looked TOO real and might be considered a felony. <br /><br />So I'm curious how you don't get shot by the cops by making prop bombs. Though making them look less real probably helps. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17351522096929959986noreply@blogger.com
