If you havent heard, Elon Musk sold "flamethrowers" to promote his Boring Company. I wanted one but didn't want to shell out 500 bucks. Especially when his "flamethrower" is essentially a torch more so than an actual flamethrower. Therefore in making my own I made my design as such to be more of a torch. This is basically an extreme Nerf gun mod. Thank you to my friend for your generosity in donating me Nerf guns.
I took a Nerf CS-35 Raider (free) and combined it with a harbour freight weed burner torch ($30). It just so happens that this fits inside it near perfect. The result equals Boring Company "flamethrower" Cheap knockoff.
The Nerf gun stock is from a Nerf Retaliator. The CS-35 Nerf guns are actually now discontinued however a near exact successor called the Nerf Rampage is still on the shelves.
If one were to buy all the parts off the shelf, the build would cost about 80 to 100 dollars. 30 dollar weed burner 30-50 dollar nerf gun and 20 dollars in brass fittings, paint, and propane tank.
