Nov 23, 2008 - Decent enough video, but get a better lighter. Zippos are cool, yeah, but they don't go out and the flame isn't very controlled. For a video once, I had the filter paper after filtering out some HMTD (there was just a fine bit of powder left) and threw the zippo onto it. Imagine that as an accident.Also, the fuse on that polumna was rather small.. Considering you're messing with flashpowders here (Mg based too - dangerous), you may want to rethink your current safety strategy..
bzyo2322 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - yeah now I got a re-fillable butane lighterand i got some fuse (although thanks for the warning)

comicfan21 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - with the 50/50 ratio are you measuring by weight or size? as people don't always use the same method, anyways, if you're doing it by weight, try by size, and vice versa (size as in how big the pile is) [just clarifying]
bzyo2322 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - by weighti'll try it

bzyo2322 Says:
Nov 23, 2008 - 60-40 is a good ratioyou have to weigh it
