Describes the basic principles of creating a sawdust cannon. From the user desc:

My brother has been working on a way to make large explosions without the inherit danger of real explosives. Sawdust ignites well when mixed with the right ratio of air, so he devised this contraption. I hope to have an example of this at night- which is a truly spectacular effect! The intent of this is for special effects in a low-budget war film I'm scheming to start soon... err, someday.
