Mason jar mine

The Mason Jar Mine is a cut content mine in Fallout 3. It can be found in the book The Art of Fallout 3.

Background
The mine itself seems to be a combination of nails, possibly Railway Spikes, an empty jar, a stick of dynamite and a lit Cigarette. The cigarette burns down, and eventually ignites the fuse on the dynamite. When it explodes, it sends the nails flying in all directions, but, due to where the explosive (dynamite) is placed, it would send the nails in only one direction. Also it seems that this wouldn't be able to function as a mine, due to the fact that cigarettes are not proximity activated bombs. It would instead function something like a Time Bomb. This may explain why there are so many cigarettes in the game.
