Well, if it is a typical pipe bomb, it is best to use a metal pipe with very tightly screwed in metal caps. The inside consists of some sort of explosive, like a compressed flammable gas, gunpowder, or a plastic explosive like c4 or TNT. It can be detonated by a fuse or electrical wire. When the material inside of the pipe catches fire, a chemical reaction occurs, and large amounts of heat energy are released. Pressure quickly builds up inside of the pipe, causing it to expand and explode very rapidly. It is extremely dangerous to make or obtain these because the explosive material is usually not very stable, and any pipe material is bound to cause some sort of friction that may ignite the bomb. Not to mention the fact that pipe bombs are illegal in most countries.
