We use to make cannons out of tin cans, lighter fluid and a tennis ball! Back when cans were made of tin, not aluminum

@Goodluckwiththat We used to do all kinds of little experiments too.

None, I think purchasing Fireworks is illegal in the State. You can buy them elsewhere and bring it in.

@Thevy29 they are illegal in my city and many others in central Oklahoma but they can be sold in areas where it’s not illegal. Some cops will park a short distance down the road in the non-legal areas and pull people over if they suspect they’ve purchased fireworks. Doesn’t stop a lot of people from buying them and bringing them here. I heard some over a week ago. On Fourth of July when the big city annual fireworks show is going on in the park that’s when people start popping them, Roman candles and rockets etc. All the cops are at the park because there are so many people there and they also need to direct traffic after it’s over. Still yet some get tickets, they usually just do it intermittently. I saw a drone flying over last year, me & the boy walked around the neighborhood about 10 p.m. and saw it.
