SYRINGE FUZES

This syringe fuze is useful as part of a pressure-fuzed land mine because the contacts are sealed inside the syringe, protecting them from moisture. This version is favored by many Third World insurgents because it can be constructed from available materials. ORPA uses it in mines made from cooking pots. 

Some of the innovative new devices in this book have never been seen in print, and every one of them works. Diagrams, formulas, and instructions for the ultimate molotov cocktail, lunch bag incendiaries, FAEs, syringe fuzes, digital electronic timers, contact explosives, fire bombs..,The Anarchist Arsenal leaves nothing out. 

This fuze is based on dried seeds expanding when soaked with water. It is an improvement over previous dricd-sccd timers in that it is leakproof and will function at any angle. The larger the syringe used the better, but anything over 30 cubic centimeters will work.
