If you&#8217;re not one of the lucky ones with an old sweater from Grandma, you can still turn your least favorite sweater into the most epic flame-throwing Christmas sweater there ever was.<\/p>\n<p>[JAIRUS OF ALL], maker of explosive and other dangerous ideas, came up with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BtQRz6c2DGA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DIY ugly Christmas sweater<\/a> that shoots flames on command. In order to produce the flame-throwing effect, he uses piping from a fish tank airline hose with a T connector attached to one end and epoxied to the middle of the sweater. The piping runs down the sweater to a can of butane fuel that he can control from the nozzle. Once the fuel is being released, he uses a lighter to initiate the flames from the sweater.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=kn4Bwd5pg2M\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">flames are quite impressive<\/a>, so definitely use caution if you intend to replicate this build in any way. It would be helpful to have a friend with a CO2 fire extinguisher nearby as well.<\/p>\n<p>For a less life-threatening build, fellow builder [Price] created a Christmas tree-themed sweater lined with LEDs and USB-powered figurines, connected to a power supply in his pocket.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-392114\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe class='youtube-player lazyload' type='text\/html' width='800' height='480' data-src='https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BtQRz6c2DGA?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;autohide=2&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;wmode=transparent' allowfullscreen='true' style='border:0;' src='about:blank' data-load-mode='0'><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>source <a href=\"https:\/\/hackaday.com\/2020\/01\/11\/this-ugly-christmas-sweater-can-set-you-on-fire\/\">https:\/\/hackaday.com\/2020\/01\/11\/this-ugly-christmas-sweater-can-set-you-on-fire\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While Christmas may have just passed, there&#8217;s just enough time left in winter to justify wearing your ugly Christmas sweaters for a few more days.
