I'd be interested in seeing how it was done, if it wasn't too much trouble...

6" pipe ...3/4 plate bottom...top ...8" pipe...3/4 plate 3" inlet and hole with rubber (old tire) inside port ...fill with sand and layer or just sand and flak jacket fibre as an overlay for the sand on top 2-4 inches ...(no spatter and some sound supression ....sound like pounding nails with the doors closed ...
