Either way after 200 years you'd probably need 5 cherry bombs to even make 1 usable one. Also bottlecap mines in game, in my opinion are not quite as effective as all other fallout style mines.
I always assumed the lunchbox was full of bottlecaps, the 10 required for the recipe was just a balance thing so you didn’t have to waste all your caps making one in game mine.

@@arty7122 The binary they used wasn't ANFO though. And ANFO is powerful shit; it's what the Oklahoma City Bomber used. I have no doubt the Fallout 4 recipe would produce a device I would not want going off next to my leg. Also of note; The Fallout 4 recipe doesn't actually use bottlecaps. It uses 'steel'. This can be...well, anything steel. Bunch of steel self-tapping screws, nails, scraps, all manner of foul metallic hell you do not want yeeted toward you at hypersonic velocities by a couple pounds of ANFO. IMO the FO4 recipe produces the most plausibly lethal device following real world physics.

@@arty7122 I think what people are missing is the fact that there wasn't actually any nuclear war. Just an unfortunate and totally deniable incident relating to reformulating new Nuka-Cola. Obviously this detonated the factories with a yield similar to nuclear devices, but to avoid product liability, it was easier to blame it on a nuclear war. But the exploding factories also explains why there are so many bottle caps scattered across the wasteland. But it also explains the power of a proper bottle cap mine. The cherry bomb(s) are simply initiators that trigger Nuka-Cola residue remaining on the caps. This is also why only 10 caps are recommended per mine, to avoid unwanted and oversized craters. Some may be thinking 'but what about the ruined Nuka Cola factories?'. Well, obviously these were fakes reconstructed after the original factory detonations to help sell the cover up.

@Xinnie the Pooh I should have specified Fallout the video GAME. Not the war part. Getting nuked and killing people for somebody else's agenda isn't really my style.
Fallout is amazing! I remember putting 10+ of those in the same spot and the blast would lag my ps4 for a good min lmao so many more fallout explosives to try from the games
I would think something like this would (realistically) be best used as a claymore mine. The latch and lid are going to be the major weak points, so if you dig it into the ground to brace the rear and aim the lid where you want the shrapnel to go (and also when making it put all the shrapnel in the front), that might work much better. Sensor module could be a manual switch then that you attach to a tripwire, and that think going off only 2-3 feet away at shin height is no joke.
One thing ignored in your "Clone Correct" Bottle-cap Mine was that IN GAME it uses FIVE Cherry Bombs (at least in the Fallout New Vegas crafting recipe shown in the video)
Finally a real person who doesnt create some 1 minute intro saying subscribe lol. One of the few rares mate. I wish we had more people out in the world like this.
Assuming all of them are wired up to the same proxy switch/electrical device with the same length of wire, more or less, they should go off almost at once.
If I had to hazard a guess, the idea would probably have been that the character uses the explosive material of 5 cherry bombs to make the mine, and not 5 separate cherry bombs..
More than likely in the build process they emptied the cherry bombs of their flash powder and then sealed them into a single unit. It would make detonation easier.
Great intro, one of my favorite games. Hearing the music now I want to replay it again on the old XP machine. Cool idea using explosives used in games. That is a lot of videos just covering games. Hope to see more.
Hola amigos! We finally got this video up. I know it was requested by many and we had to make sure we could use some of Bethesda's media content so we could make a decent video. So far, we think this should be all in the green with Bethesda and they hopefully don't demand we take it down. Also, I'm well aware of my atrocious hat hair. You could say I was having a brutal bad hair week at the range. With our first video game destructive device complete, we now must move onto new ones. Be sure to leave suggestions and we will review them for future projects!
I'm interested in seeing a plate steel welded box have its welds tested with some shock and pressure waves and what would it take to crack or separate the welds.
In game has five cherry bombs but ten bottle caps is really low count, should be (100 caps at least in game instead of 10 caps) Great video on the bottle cap mine nice job.
It would be badass to see, but that would take some serious work to reproduce. I can't imagine it would be easy to get your hands on working replica or deactivated mine, so it would have to be hand made
@@TucsonHat a large can with a smaller one inside it, black powder lift charge, a piece of quickmatch leading to the cap. The main charge should be surrounded by steel balls. It would take some math and experimentation, but it's definitely doable, especially since they won't have to copy the pressure switch and are remotely detonating it.
I agree with other comments about the New Vegas reproduction needing 5x cherry bombs (about 25g of flash powder as you mentioned 5g per cherry bomb). It's been a while but if I remember correctly the Fallout 4 bottlecap mine needs something like 100-250 bottlecaps. Again I don't recall 100% but remember it being rather costly in fallout 4 to make a bottlecap mine
You guys should try the flash powder and bullseye smokeless powder test I’ve heard from a few people that mixing typical 70/30 flash and then mixing that in a 50/50 ratio with bullseye smokeless is pretty powerful. I guess bullseye smokeless powder has a high nitro glycerine content. Not sure if this is true. It would be cool for you guys to try
I'd assume that the actual recipe from the game would be to cut the caps into small pieces of shrapnel, combine the explosive from the 5 cherry bombs, then package it in the lunchbox. Part of the procedure may be to score the inside of the lunchbox metal as well so it turns into more pieces. Maybe you need the plans in game because it's a bit more involved than just chucking all the stuff in a box and sending it.
All I can say is in the game the bottle caps can be recovered after detonation so they are not damaged during the crafting process or the detonation, somehow.
PLS make these. 1 a improvised claymore out of a ammo can. Pls use tanarite i know they work with c4 but never seen one with tanarite. 2 light bulb incendiary bomb. just use a file to cut a hole in the light bulb and then fill with gas or powder and screw it in a lamp. 3 Molotov with a eggs. 4 Cricket bombs with nails or bbs added for shrap. 5 Dont know if you can but use a a stronger explosive in a m67 or just add more comp b to it. Most of these i never had a chance to make while in the improvised explosives class i took in the marines. We mostly practiced making bangalores, breaching charges and claymores. Thanks for the video guys keep them coming.
The bottle cap mine is nothing more than the post apocalyptic home-made version of the Claymore mine. Never found a use for it in game, not even for settlement defense.
I had to rewind the video at the end because I was distracted when you said which Fallout game was your favorite, thought I heard you say other than New Vegas, but you most certainly said New Vegas :), can't wait to see the 5 cherry bomb sequel video, I want to see that target dummy absolutely shredded by folded metal.
Best episode you have ever done, IMO! Of course, I too am a Fallout grinder from waaaay back. I can excuse the fact that you used one cherry bomb instead of five, but I wouldn't mind seeing a re-do with a proper number. Anyway, I loved the intro and the total respect you paid to the game throughout. It would be really cool to see you put out some authentic Bottlecap Mines for sale. I'll definitely buy.
Okay. I've watched a few of your videos in the past and enjoyed them but even just the intro on this one deserves a sub! Also, glad it was a cat and a Lab. If it was a cat and a Russel I would have had to inform Home Land Security.
Bottlecaps in fallout are definitely not the same as ours. They never deteriorate even after 200 years of being exposed to nature and they are indestructible that fly all over after a mini nuke exploded.
Love the video! I'm a huge fallout fan. The only thing I disagree with it that while the super mutants are sterile, there are still male and female super mutants. Like Lily and Tabitha in New Vegas. That has nothing to do with bottlecap mines lol I just figured I'd put it in here for game authenticity.
I thought that super mutants _used to be_ male or female when they were human, but after being transformed they all had the same body that was neuter rather than either of those.
@@WJS774 they still have male/female personalities for sure(at least up until New Vegas), but that might be a trait that only the 1st gen super mutants have since in the later games they become more generic

You should paint the targets white before every test, that way you can easily see impacts. Just use cheap rattle cans or paint and a big brush.
What about all the mud though?
@@dd11111 The mud should be able to come right off a well painted target with just water spray or a good beating with a towel. Plywood loves to have dirt stick to it, which makes it good at hiding impacts underneath.
The trick is to paint it with a dark or bright paint underneath and then cover it with white. Creates kind of a "splatter target" effect
Or you could just staple a sheet of paper onto it and cut off the excess

5 Dont know if you can but use a a stronger explosive in a m67 or just add more comp b to it.
Most of these i never had a chance to make while in the improvised explosives class i took in the marines. We mostly practiced making bangalores, breaching charges and claymores.
Thanks for the video guys keep them coming.
The bottle cap mine is nothing more than the post apocalyptic home-made version of the Claymore mine. Never found a use for it in game, not even for settlement defense.
I had to rewind the video at the end because I was distracted when you said which Fallout game was your favorite, thought I heard you say other than New Vegas, but you most certainly said New Vegas :), can't wait to see the 5 cherry bomb sequel video, I want to see that target dummy absolutely shredded by folded metal.
Yay! I have wanted to see one of these in real life since 2008.
Yall did so well on the loading screen I legit zoned out for a moment n thought I was playing fallout wondering how long its gonna load this time
Jake, you guys nailed it again! I agree that the 3rd mine was a good proxy for a real weapon. Also that fat gobbler is scared as hell lol!
Subbed. Love this content
Gracias my man!
This is the Fallout 76 I wanted
In this video I learned that turkey's will gobble at anything... even an exploding bottlecap mine. hahaha
Best episode you have ever done, IMO! Of course, I too am a Fallout grinder from waaaay back. I can excuse the fact that you used one cherry bomb instead of five, but I wouldn't mind seeing a re-do with a proper number. Anyway, I loved the intro and the total respect you paid to the game throughout. It would be really cool to see you put out some authentic Bottlecap Mines for sale. I'll definitely buy.
love this channel. I can watch things go boom legally, from the safety of my chair!
10:53, Damm thats one Hot bottle cap mine! if that didn't kill a deathclaw you definitely got 2 crits on bolth legs!
Love the video, the wild turkeys in the background was hilarious
I don’t know why but this is really interesting. Glad someone is allowed to make these types of videos.
A lot of expensive permits from the ATF let's us do this without going to jail.
Fallout is my favorite game franchise . Awsome video.
Okay. I've watched a few of your videos in the past and enjoyed them but even just the intro on this one deserves a sub!
Also, glad it was a cat and a Lab. If it was a cat and a Russel I would have had to inform Home Land Security.
Bottle Cap Mine Kit. Yes. Paint that Lunchbox proper. I'll buy one.
I thought this channel was seized by those polite cops with the red suits on the horses with the maple syrup.
This channel is such a gem and its just beeing thwarted by the algorithm
When he said "let us do a little post-blast analysis" I thought he was going to say "let us do a little trolling"
Love how much effort you put into this. You manage to stay motivated, accurate and toa degree in amusement
Binary explosive - 'this is what a bottle cap should be.'
Yeah, I don't think I'd be opening that bottle...
That was the hardest ordnance lab entry ever so good
Bottlecaps in fallout are definitely not the same as ours. They never deteriorate even after 200 years of being exposed to nature and they are indestructible that fly all over after a mini nuke exploded.
God, that intro was amazing. Great work yall!
"Let us see what we need" you need a higher explosives skill
Love the video! I'm a huge fallout fan. The only thing I disagree with it that while the super mutants are sterile, there are still male and female super mutants. Like Lily and Tabitha in New Vegas. That has nothing to do with bottlecap mines lol I just figured I'd put it in here for game authenticity.
Funny seeing you here. Ha
@@DH-xw6jp lol you know if there's guns or explosives it's my kind of place to be😂
I thought that super mutants _used to be_ male or female when they were human, but after being transformed they all had the same body that was neuter rather than either of those.
@@WJS774 they still have male/female personalities for sure(at least up until New Vegas), but that might be a trait that only the 1st gen super mutants have since in the later games they become more generic
I chuckled when I heard a turkey gobble every time the turkey mines were detonated.
You guys are the Binging With Babish of the energetics world.
