Or a simple cast iron two piece body that screws together, that looks like a "teardrop" shape thus, the heavy explosive end will always hit first and blow.

The fat or bottom end of the teardrop will have a hole about 1 inch in the bottom, a pressure plate will also be there on the outside covering a large portion of the bottom so when it hits the plate slams the fulminate of mercury inside igniting a quick or instant fuse.

So basicsly the bomb will look like a inverted icecream cone with a nub on the end, or even an icecreamcone with a cherry on top, the cherry is the detonator, the scoop of icecream the explosive and the cone the body.

You could potentialy have a dual charge weapon with these too.

A charge in the icecream which propels the cone into the air where a quick fuse causes it to explode a half second after the ball side explodes.

Another item, a cheap tincan or sheet metal device with an explosion inside of course and then filled with a combination of metal fragments and manuer to cause greater casualties.

Another item, clay pots with metal built in them and filled with explosives, the clay shatters and sends the clay shards and metal fragments fliying.

Excellent ideas. And that cone shape is also what you need if you arre making shaped charges. Simple anti-armor weapon anyone? Love it.
