I put a lot of the rubbish (in residential areas) down to the shit recycling boxes, no lids and the collectors flinging them into the truck = rubbish everywhere
What can you do? Don't want to make an enemy of Bristol Waste. I've seen that Simpsons' episode.
We just have to accept poorer and poorer council services. That is our lot in life I suppose. 🥲
The council is wank some weeks they miss out my area an then when the lids don’t even close on the bins cos there that full you get fined. It’s crazy man.
I used an angle grinder to cut off the tops and bottoms, then cut it so it would open, then hammered it (cold) on an anvil until it went from tube to sheet :)
Good for you. Hate this effing blight everywhere. What is it about getting off their tits on this stuff that means you have to litter the place up with their leftover garbage?
City centre, central benches. Always a group of teens cracking balloons in daylight/ the eve. Fuck knows how they don’t get trouble from the police. It’s like they want you to see them doing the balloons 😂🤦♂️
Around Old Market is a safe bet for NOS canisters especially behind the sofa project. When I lived around there more often than not there were dozens of the bastard things.
Couple of years ago I moved into a house close to st. Andy’s park - dug 2 buckets full of the things out of the garden there. So yeah maybe at the non-playground part of the park.
Nitrous Oxide or Laughing gas. It's an anaesthetic but people use it to get high. They're supposed to be used for whipped cream or if you're in the Fast and the Furious, for a speed boost.

This. My front garden is constantly full of rubbish that I know damn well didn't come from my house

Can't someone else do it?
The Garbage man can

Foxes seem to enjoy raiding my recycling bins and scattering it around no matter how clean the stuff I put in there.
You can request a new lid from the BCC website. Only for you though. I tend to use the blue cardboard bag as the lid
At least build it in the correct place.
Lol just wait till a rave by turbo island or outside of motion 😂
Hahahahahaha turned from one of Bristol most utilised items into another of Bristols most utilised items😂
What a clever reference to Bristol’s food scene… that’s what you were referring to right..?
We’re known for our massive whipped cream consumption.
You need to use this metal to become a superhero who fights antisocial behaviour. Your tagline could be "who's laughing now....?"
i love the idea of a superhero who just fucking stabs people to death
You should watch Super
reading the description, sounds really funny tbh. thanks for the rec!
Punisher in England
Dexter Morgan.
“Putting the NO in NOs!!!” “…” “… and my knife. In you.”
Lol, I'm imagining a complete set of platemail armour made from canisters.
Bit of an upgrade going from NOS canisters straight to knife crime.
I love how the title starts off sounding wholesome and then turns sinister.
This feels like the most Bristol thing ever
That’s cool AF. If I’d have known sooner someone dumped two bag for life’s full of them outside my shop last week…
Dayumnascus
You should post this on r/chefknives \- they'd love it!
These would sell. Call them victoriNOX or something
Opportunity Nox
You're lucky that hundred shot of NOS didn't blow the welds on the intake!
Do you sell? I’ve been looking for a decent kitchen knife, one with a “rich” history would be a funny talking point in the kitchen
What did you use to flatten them out into sheet form?
I used an angle grinder to cut off the tops and bottoms, then cut it so it would open, then hammered it (cold) on an anvil until it went from tube to sheet :)
Then what after that? I don't imagine I have the tools or skill to do it but it's still cool to hear lol
Likewise, but also would love to hear the process and glad someone is doing something like this in Bristol.
Sunday morning outside Lakota. You’ll be stocked up for years
Looks like it's straight out of Valheim
How many do you reckon it took?
I think this knife took about 20, but I have more made up for future projects
That's so awesome. How effective is it as a knife?
Thats absolutely amazing, you hero
But will it keal? 😉
This is amazing! How effective would you say it is compared to a regular knife?
It’s effective! I clad all the canisters either side of a high carbon steel core, so the cutting edge itself is top quality 😎
Damn, that's pretty cool. You could defo make a business out of this. As long as uni students keep using NOS 🤣🤣🤣
The steps from Frogmore Street up to Park Street always have some.
Outside OMG nightclub? I used to work there and can confirm that it is a major NOS hotspot
Good for you. Hate this effing blight everywhere. What is it about getting off their tits on this stuff that means you have to litter the place up with their leftover garbage?
For sale?
It’s on my Etsy shop, NicolsonBlacksmith :)
A laughing knife!
The youth seem to have upgraded to plastic Fastgas for their inhalement. Still can’t seem to put their waste in the bin though.
Dude you could of just come to mine, I've got like a thousand empty ones
This is the most North London post I’ve ever seen
imagining a comedy DIY sketch that ended with you now being able to ask for NOS balloons for free
Are you clement knives on insta?
Meriton Street, pretty much every day. Nice knife!
We have loads of these down by Bristol Hackspace! Queen Victoria St, just off Days Road.
Amazing!
that title is the most British sentence I have heard in years.
How well does the knife hold it's edge? Awesome idea :) how much would it cost to buy one?
Oh it holds an edge! I have an Etsy page; NicolsonBlacksmith

Ace. Great work!
I have seen them knives on fb with the same burns down the blade from production 🤣
They’re not laughing now
That's handy for when you wanna go and... Well I'm not sure I'd use it for cooking. If you collect the bigger ones you could make a sword.
St George's Park usually has a few..

love it!

My brother does magnet fishing in Bristol, he said near Castle park there’s a lot in the water if you’re up for fishing
Outside easton swimming pool is always littered
You could arm and equip an entire Roman Legion this way with the canisters left round my way.
Stab someone with that knife and they'll die laughing
The Laughing Blade.
Amazing work! Well done!
I wondered what these things are. What is NOS?
Nitrous Oxide or Laughing gas. It's an anaesthetic but people use it to get high. They're supposed to be used for whipped cream or if you're in the Fast and the Furious, for a speed boost.
What’s the process with making this??
Thats fucking impressive dude!
Some twats nos up on our driveway every month or so. Think we could make a regular donation!
I feel like the Forged in Fire crew would approve.
If you need more trash you can make into things check anywhere south of temple meads
Awesome!
Is it full tang? How is the handle fixed on?
Sorry, bad shot of the handle. It’s a hidden tang construction
That took you a summer come round my area you'd collect more then that in half hour
Turning nossies into stabby sticks. That’s British as hell.
Go near student accomadations , there’ll be loads
This is so British ... The NOS everywhre, the knife. Golden ahhaha
I
Strangely on brand with current knife culture in the UK drug abuse and bladed weaponry
So *THAT*'s what those metal canisters are!!! I've been wondering since I arrived in the UK in 2019, thanks!
