I made tennis ball cannons as a child, but no bombs.
The closest was probably when I would take entire rolls of caps and fold them back and forth, accordion style, so that all the gunpowder parts would be all lined up next to one another. Then take a pin and push it through the center of all of them. I forget how I'd light the thing. That's probably how the whole thing fell apart. What I do remember was taking entire boxes of caps and hitting them with a sledgehammer on a concrete slab. Louder than a fire cracker.
In high school, my calculus teacher would talk to us about how to make pipe bombs. Then one day he stopped talking about it. I think he realized he was being too free with information that might get him in trouble.
