did you melt the potassium nitrate/sugar mix because it works better when its melted, also use icing sugar that seems to work very well

i was referring to making chlorates there is the method of getting them from bleech and you said it works but then you said you have found an easier way i was asking what is the easier way for making chlorates, i was a bit lost when you mentiond the other things
it`s a long winded method, but it does work, I`ve done the same myself in the past, until I found an easier way0 -
oh right thank you

oh yes that has just reminded my dont buy potassium nitrate from http://www.gardenchemicals.co.uk i payed £9.50 for 500g plus postage so about £12 for 500g of potassium nitrate instead get it of http://www.labpakchemicals.co.uk for about £3 for 500g that way you can get 3 times as much you have to include postage thats why it's not four times as much, Anyway YT how well does the bleach method work IE how much crystals will you get and how easy is the NaNO3 and KCL method i am guessing you get a bit more then the amount of NaNO3 you use

if anybody has ever thought about making smoke bombs i advise you not too unless you live in a big open area, i have just made a smoke bomb today infact 10 minutes ago, i got the recipe from unitednuclear i thought this might be a bit of fun to do, so i got out the icing sugar potassium nitrate heated it ect, and i poured it in to a cardboard tube i filled it to the top, but there was some left over about 5g worth which dried quickly so i decide to light to see what it looks like and while i am doing that the other one can dry firstly small amounts of smoke are given off then alot and i mean alot, thick dense smoke, which blew back into my house( the back door was open bad mistake) setting the fire alarms of in my kitchen, the smoke travelled all the way through my dining room into the living room luckly by the time it got to my living room the smoke was about as thick as when you burn toast now then this is where my problem comes in i have about 45g of this stuff in a cardboard tube and if the 5g is anything to go by i am going to have a major problem when i light the big one, so i advise people not to make it. it would be good on halloween or paintballing ect but not for any day in the week because it will cause huge suspicion

Thank you for that very nice remark
Edit: i suppose i should be very cautious of anybody with a gun
Edit 2: i should be cautious of anybody with a gun in the first place in england, because nobody should own a gun except for a shotgun

Yes' date=' on the equator it can spin either way or just slurp. You should travel moreSorry, your one crazy mofo. I command thee to go flushing toilets and emptying sinks until thy hast learnt thyne lesson.[/quote']
lol seroiusly it is true i have even tried it the force which makes the water turn clock-wise or anti-clockwise is much weaker then the other forces impacted on it like the one's i mentioned before again i got the of the all mighty informative TV, brainiac 2

The crystals that come of this mixture look like diamonds. Here is what I did after the crystals were dried:
2 parts Potassium Chlorate (The dried crystals)
1 part Sulfur
1 part Al
Just putting a spec of this stuff on a hard surface and hitting it lightly with a hammer made a BIG BLAST! (So what is this stuff if its not Potassium Chlorate?)
What I was wondering if there is a way to make potassium perchlorate - to make a more stable flash powder.
you should not add sulphur to any chlorates it makes the mixture unstable

"Water in a pan' date=' sink, or toilet rotates anti-clockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere"What if your exactly in the between? No rotation then, just *slurp*? [/quote']
it actually does'nt matter where you live it depends on other things eg, sink shape, plug type ect, it can flow either anti-clockwise or clock wise in any country

Or you could just look at the label.I wish there was some international law (with hideous consequences' date=' preferably) against claiming tea has more caffeine than coffee.[/quote']
actualy per pound of coffee or tea leaves tea has more caffeine in it but for a cup of either, coffee has more caffeine. i got that of QI BBC 2 one of my favourite programs after top gear

some parts i disagree, if it becomes icy then salters will come and salt the road to prevent it being icy, and they have containers where people can put salt down if they feel it is dangerously slipery but yes in some case's we are unprepared for bad wether conditions that may be because we dont have that many
