Looks like it is all from metal.Why didn't you try it with more then 5x?If a coke bottle can survive 4x then what can we say about the steel?

If there is a competition, there's no problem to me to make a hybrid with much more times the mix.

Actually a 2x mix only needs 14.7 psi, because the normal atmospheric pressure is 14.7. (14.7+14.7=29.4 psi)
