How did you come to that conclusion?
Are you a bomb maker? Have much, if indeed ANY experience do have you with bomb makers? Have you ever even blown something up?
I grew up in an era where you could go to the local hardware store and buy cases of dynamite, blasting caps and fuse.
And - my dad did. We were clearing a swampy area to build our house - and blasting is the quickest way to get rid of stumps. So yes - as a 12 year old - I was lighting off dynamite for legitimate reasons. The recreational uses were amazing as well. The 4th of July in this neighborhood was loud.
I also have a friend who is licensed for demolition work - so I have some exposure to AMFO, det cord and electronic fired blasting caps.
Plus - I did pretty well in high school physics and chemistry --- which is all the education someone really needs to make bombs.
It' s not rocket science

Oh i know how to make one  and i have used them when i was younger (i grew up in the far north were explosives have their use) and my conclusion is based on the fact it looks like he was trying to build a real bomb (the fact he put shrapnel in it particularly ) but messed up . Which leads me to the greater conclusion he's not used to doing this .
