If, like this writer, you’re the type to use “metal” as a synonym for “awesome,” then the never-ending flaming guitar solo from “Mad Max: Fury Road” was surely among your favorite cinematic moments of 2015. Courtesy of Colin Furze, you can now build a similar axe from the comfort of your own home. If you’re not inclined to go to the effort of putting together a six-string flamethrower — which, at the end of the day, is probably the safer option — you can simply watch the beast in action. It is, as they say, metal as fuck.

For the DIY enthusiasts among ye, Furze has also recorded a how-to video detailing the process that went into his creation. It’s filled with the kind of technical detail that some are sure to grasp more fully than most, but Furze is a lively presence who explains things well.
While we can’t actually recommend that you try any of this at home, go crazy in watching Furze do it himself.
