If anything touches that, air begins flow out. I dont think the writer meant that he stabbed the toothpick into the middle of the tank causing air to rush out from the side. lol. Either way, the thread is probably bogus.

One more thing-

Does anyone know where to get those metal alloy rims for a bit char-g and those alloy exhaust pipes?
Uh, nooooo.... The small CO2 cartridges are sealed shut. There is NO valve on them. You need to peirce the end to allow the gas to escape the cartridge, and you'll need a good deal of force to begin with. Once you do it the cartridge is useless.

Or you can use the 12oz cansiters that are used on paintball guns, but they are WAY to big... Heh. Not to mention you still need a good deal of force to open the valve on it.
