A Stick That Goes “Boom”
Good old fashioned American ingenuity.
Enjoy!
With what looks like an old shower rod, a man has configured a homemade shotgun, “pipe gun or zip gun,” or whatever you want to call it. By way of the video, the creator “Kip” shows us that the single-shot shotgun is made up of two pieces: a barrel and receiver. And he also demonstrates how it works:
In the video, Kip pulls out the barrel, loads a shotgun shell into the chamber (the one end of the barrel) and then inserts the barrel into the receiver. To fire he thrusts the barrel rearward, which pushes the shell toward a fixed firing pin. Once the primer is pierced the shell is fired, sending shot downrange.
In the video Kip explains that his homemade shotgun is 26 inches long in its entirety, so it complies with his state laws. And he says this configuration is for “extreme situations, survival situations or just simply having fun.”
DIY Nutella
Are you feeling ambitious?
If you love the chocolate and hazelnut taste of Nutella and have hazelnuts available you can make your own version of the beloved European spread using cocoa powder, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, salt, and coconut oil.
Culinary weblog Reclaiming Provincial has tried several Nutella clone recipes over the years and finally settled on this recipe as the closest to the European version. The source link also notes differences between various versions of Nutella.
What you’re basically doing is toasting and peeling hazelnuts (also known as filberts), adding them to a food processor and blend until reaching a smooth butter then add the other ingredients and blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This homemade chocolate hazelnut spread will store for up to two weeks in your refrigerator. See the source link below for the full recipe with measurements.
