Hold the ball in your hand and light it again. Once you're used to how the flame behaves, quench the fire with your hand or a wet cloth. Light your cotton ball and watch it burn. The Ronsonol brand lighter fluid commonly recommended for this experiment recently changed their formula to exclude naphtha. Be sure your lighter fluid is explicitly labelled as containing naphtha.
You do not need to soak the ball in a bath of lighter fluid. Pour lighter fluid on your bound ball of cotton. To finish, push the needle through one last time and cut the thread where it exits the opposite side of the ball of cotton. To bind your ball of cotton fabric, pierce the center of the ball with your needle and thread.Ĭontinue wrapping and piercing the ball until it is as tight as possible. I made this shirt for my website, but the print ended up off center.Ĭut a strip of your cotton cloth about 6 inches long. The cotton burns at a higher temperature than the lighter fluid, so it will not catch on fire while the fluid burns.
This is essentially going to be a wick for our lighter fluid. Scrunch up your cotton fabric into a tight ball. The fireballs burn at a low temperature, so they are safe to hold in your hand and throw (shoot) at imaginary enemies. Flying, invisibility, and x-ray vision are popular, but my favorite is fire power! I've always wanted to be Wheeler from the Captain Planet kids show, and now I can with these handheld fireballs of awesomeness.
