I've often felt that even terrorists, especially terrorists willing to irradiate themselves and die, could build a gun-type bomb if they could secure enough highly enriched uranium. You can get the basic plan in books or off the internet.

The idea is to reach critical mass by firing enough nuke material down a gun barrel into the remaining incomplete critical mass, so the concept is very simple to grasp. Forming the material into a hollow sphere, constructing a hollow sphere of explosive and co-ordinating all the fuses for an implosion-type weapon is orders of magnitude more daunting.
