Dear WiZ,
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
I have wanted to tell you for some time Just how much I enJoy your column. next
|
|||
|
to handcuffing the old ladies wrists to her ankles and then {++++++}, its the
|
|||
|
most fun I get all month.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
I have been going through a lot of trouble trying to get lift charge [very
|
|||
|
coarse black powder], as black powder is considered class "A", it is next to
|
|||
|
impossible to obtain locally. I had tried the CIA method, and ball milling, but
|
|||
|
they are both more trouble then worth.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
My results using perchlorate/charcoal have been less then good, damnedest run
|
|||
|
of flower pots you ever saw. is there any thing else that I can use for lift?
|
|||

|||

|
|||
|
Ah, your timing is impeccable for Just the other day I had put some time into
|
|||
|
divining a replacement for bp for use as lift charge. my investigations lead me
|
|||
|
on a search for substances that can be easily nitrated and are at the same time
|
|||
|
readily available.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
A chance conversation with a relative brought forth the information that she
|
|||
|
had, "had it" with the cat, and therefore trucked it over to the local animal
|
|||
|
shelter. discreet inQuiries uncovered the information that while dogs were kept
|
|||
|
for 48 hours, cats were not kept at all. "when you go out the front door, they
|
|||
|
go out the back."
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
With an unlimited supply of material to work with, [if they give you any static
|
|||
|
about taking the bodies, Just tell them "well i guess finding a cure for cancer
|
|||
|
will Just take a little longer", works every time.] a few Quick experiments
|
|||
|
were tried. first freeze drying: left one of the furry suckers in the frost
|
|||
|
free fridge for 6 months, at the end of that time it was found to be completely
|
|||
|
mummified, it was then a simple a matter of putting it into a sack and the
|
|||
|
breaking it up with a hammer.the resulting pieces were "nitrated" using nitric
|
|||
|
acid produced by the CIA method.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
After processing, it was found to be to slow burning for use as lift charge.
|
|||
|
{worked ok in fountains ,etc thou.} a determination was made that the bone
|
|||
|
minerals were slowing down the burn rate. as removing the bones before freeze
|
|||
|
drying would be rather messy, another procedure was sort.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
After not a little bit of work, the following method was found to produce lift
|
|||
|
charge of great utility. [pussy lift - purr lift].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
First skin the animal out, the procedure used by the sioux indians for skinning
|
|||
|
sQuirrels, works real nice. place the skinned carcass in a plastic bucket and
|
|||
|
cover it with a strong nitric acid solution, then let it sit two weeks or so in
|
|||
|
the shade, to react.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Take the removed skin and hang it out to dry. after drying cut it up into
|
|||
|
little pieces and in turn place them into an enameled pot. with a solution of
|
|||
|
nitric and sulphuric acids (battery acid will do nicely for the sulphuric). put
|
|||
|
it on the fire and let the mixture simmer, out of doors for six hours or so.
|
|||
|
the nitration of the hair from the animal will produce picric acid, which when
|
|||
|
added to the nitrated carcass will help overcome the calcium and etc in the
|
|||
|
bones. combine the two mixtures and then boil (in the enameled pot) until a
|
|||
|
thick gruel is obtained. pour the mixture out on to a flat surface and let it
|
|||
|
dry slowly in the sun. after drying carefully break up the large pieces by hand
|
|||
|
or with a rubber mallet, sieve it and put in a safe place until your next
|
|||
|
shoot.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
While the supply of gone pussies is rather large, there seems to be a
|
|||
|
substantial variation in the number of cats disposed of day by day with peak
|
|||
|
production occurring on april 1st.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Good shooting and thanks for writing the WiZ.
