This project is perfect for those who enjoy DIY projects and are looking for a unique way to add some excitement to their lives. Materials Needed: * A propane tank * A fuel line * A valve * A nozzle * A handle Step 1: Prepare the Propane Tank First, you'll need to prepare your propane tank. You can purchase one at most hardware stores or online. Make sure it's in good condition and has no leaks. Step 2: Assemble the Fuel Line Next, assemble the fuel line by connecting the valve to the propane tank. This will allow you to control the flow of fuel to the nozzle. Step 3: Attach the Nozzle Attach the nozzle to the end of the fuel line. This will be used to direct the flames when you're using the flamethrower. Step 4: Add a Handle Finally, add a handle to your handheld flamethrower. This will make it easier to hold and maneuver. Safety Precautions When building and using your handheld flamethrower, always follow safety precautions. Make sure you have a fire extinguisher nearby and never use the flamethrower near flammable materials. **Lesson Plan and Activity** In this lesson plan, students will learn how to build their own handheld flamethrower. They will work in teams to gather materials and assemble the device. Once they've completed the project, they'll have the opportunity to test it out safely.
