=====
|
|
|
|
Here I am, back again, aiding the youths of America in having as much
|
|
fun as we possibly can before we become old enough to ACTUALLY go to jail.
|
|
But until then, make like Bill and Ted, AND PARTY ON DUDES!!! But anyhow,
|
|
as for the focus of this phile, it is Sugar Chlorate Powder. It is more of
|
|
a blasting powder than an explosive, but many interesting tricks,
|
|
explosions, etc. can be gotten from it if ya just use a little brains and
|
|
of course, common sense. For those of you who are kinda new to the
|
|
explosives biz, I would STRONGLY suggest that you look into reading The
|
|
Pyro Series by .....well..by some guy, I couldn't find his name. It is a
|
|
very nice beginner phile.. I have included the saftey section of PYRO.TXT
|
|
at the beginning of this phile so that my readers don't kill themselves.
|
|
Pretty smart huh? You can find the entire PYRO.TXT phile on many boards if
|
|
you want it.. If you still can't find it, I know HELLFIRE BBS will have it
|
|
so go there. Just tell 'em how you heard of the place, and you should get
|
|
in..
|
|
On with the good stuff.....
|
|
|
|
BASIC SAFTEY
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Pyrotechnic preparations and explosives are, by their very nature,
|
|
unstable, and subject to ignition by explosion or heat, shock, or friction.
|
|
A clear understanding of their dangerous properties and due care in the
|
|
handling of ingredients or finished products is necessary if accidents are
|
|
to be avoided. Always observe all possible precautions, particularly the
|
|
following:
|
|
|
|
1. Mix only small batches at one time. This means a few grams, or
|
|
at most, an ounce or so. Don't go for big mixes -- they only
|
|
make for bigger accidents. The power of an explosive cubes
|
|
itself with every ounce. (9 Ounces is 729 times as powerful as
|
|
one ounce.)
|
|
|
|
2. When weighing chemicals, use a clean piece of paper on the
|
|
scale pan for each item. Then discard the used paper into a
|
|
bucket of water before weighing the next ingredient.
|
|
|
|
3. Be a safe worker. Dispose of any chemicals spilled on the
|
|
workbench or equipment between weighings. Don't keep open
|
|
containers of chemicals on your table, since accidental
|
|
spillage or mixing may occur. When finished with a container,
|
|
close it, and replace it on the storage shelf. Use only clean
|
|
equipment.
|
|
|
|
4. Where chemicals are to be ground, grind them separately, NEVER
|
|
TOGETHER. Thoroughly wash and clean equipment before grinding
|
|
another ingredient.
|
|
|
|
5. Mixing of batches should be done outdoors, away from flammable
|
|
structures, such as buildings, barns, garages, etc. Mixes
|
|
should also be made in NON METALLIC containers to avoid sparks.
|
|
Glass also should not be used since it will shatter in case of
|
|
an accident. Handy small containers can be made by cutting off
|
|
the top of a plastic bottle three or four inches from the
|
|
bottom. Some mixes may most conveniently be made by placing the
|
|
ingredients in
|
|
a plastic bottle and rolling around until the mixture is
|
|
uniform. In all cases, point the open end of the container away
|
|
from
|
|
yourself. Never hold your body or face over the container. Any
|
|
stirring should be done with a wooden paddle or stick to avoid
|
|
sparks or static.
|
|
|
|
Powdered or ground materials may also be mixed by placing them
|
|
on a large sheet of paper on a flat surface and then rolling
|
|
them
|
|
across the sheet by lifting the sides and corners one at a time.
|
|
|
|
6. Never ram or stamp mixes into paper or cardboard tubes. Pour
|
|
the material in and gently tap or shake the tube to settle the
|
|
contents down.
|
|
|
|
7. Store ingredients and finished mixes where they will not be a
|
|
fire hazard away from heat and flame. Finished preparations may
|
|
be stored in plastic bottles which will not shatter in case of
|
|
an accident. Since many of the ingredients and mixes are
|
|
poisonous, they should be stored out of reach of children or
|
|
pets, preferably locked away.
|
|
|
|
8. Be sure threads of screw top containers and caps are thoroughly
|
|
cleaned. This applies also to containers with stoppers of
|
|
rubber or cork and to all other types of closures. Traces of
|
|
mixture caught between the container and closure may be ignited
|
|
by the friction of opening or closing the container. Throughout
|
|
any procedure, WORK WITH CLEAN CONDITIONS.
|
|
|
|
9. ALWAYS WEAR A FACE SHIELD OR AT LEAST SHATTERPROOF SAFETY
|
|
GLASSES. Any careful worker does when handling dangerous
|
|
materials. Be sure lenses and frames are not flammable.
|
|
|
|
10. Always wear a dust respirator when handling chemicals in dust
|
|
form. These small particles gather in your lungs and stay
|
|
there. They may cause serious illnesses later on in life.
|
|
|
|
11. Always wear gloves when working with chemicals.
|
|
|
|
12. Always wear a waterproof lab apron.
|
|
|
|
13. If you must work indoors, have a good ventilation system.
|
|
|
|
14. Never smoke anywhere near where you are working.
|
|
|
|
15. Make sure there are NO open flames present, and NO MOTORS (they
|
|
produce sparks inside.) No hot water heaters, furnaces, or
|
|
pilot lights in stoves!! Sparks have been known to very readily
|
|
explode dust floating in the air.
|
|
|
|
16. ALWAYS work with someone. Two heads are better than one.
|
|
|
|
17. Have a source of water READILY available. (Fire extinguisher,
|
|
hose, etc.)
|
|
|
|
18. Never, under any circumstances, use any metal to load chemicals
|
|
or put chemicals in. Fireworks with metal casings are worse to
|
|
handle than a live hand grenade. Never use any metal container
|
|
or can. This includes the very dangerous CO2 cartridges. Many
|
|
people have been KILLED because of flying fragments from metal
|
|
casings. Again, please do not use metal in any circumstance.
|
|
|
|
19. Always be thoroughly familiar with the chemicals you are using.
|
|
Some information will be included in each file, but look for
|
|
whatever extra information you can. Materials that were once
|
|
thought to be safe can later be found out to be dangerous
|
|
stuff.
|
|
|
|
20. Wash your hands and face thoroughly after using chemicals.
|
|
Don't forget to wash your EARS AND YOUR NOSE.
|
|
|
|
21. If any device you've built fails to work, leave it alone. After
|
|
a half hour or so, you may try to bury it, but never try to
|
|
unload or reuse any dud.
|
|
|
|
22. If dust particles start to form in the air, stop what you are
|
|
doing and leave until it settles.
|
|
|
|
23. Read the entire file before trying to do anything.
|
|
|
|
24. NEVER strike any mixture containing Chlorates, Nitrates,
|
|
Perchlorates, Permanganates, Bichromates, or powdered metals
|
|
don't drop them, or even handle them roughly.
|
|
|
|
These rules may all look like a lot of silly nonsense, but let's look at
|
|
one example. When the move "The Wizard of OZ" was made, the actress who
|
|
played the good witch was severely burned when one of the exploding special
|
|
effects got out of hand. The actress who played the bad witch got really
|
|
messed up by the green coloring used on her face, and the original actor
|
|
who played the Tin Man got his lungs destroyed by the aluminum dust used to
|
|
color his face. The actor we know of as the tin man was actually a
|
|
replacement. The point is, these chemicals were being used under the
|
|
direction of people a lot more knowlegable of chemicals than you are, and
|
|
terrible accidents still happened. Don't take this stuff lightly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Getting The Materials
|
|
|
|
There are quite a few chemical supply houses that you can mail order
|
|
the materials you need. You'll have to sign a form stating that you're over
|
|
21 and won't use the chemicals for the types of things we're learning here.
|
|
Note that the people who run these supply houses know what sugar chlorate
|
|
powder does/is and if you order chemicals from the same place, or in the
|
|
same order, it may arouse some suspicion. As well as any other chemical
|
|
combination that you use for these little "science porjects".
|
|
|
|
Check the classified ads in the back of magazines like Popular Science
|
|
for the current supply houses. Order as many catalogs as you can find. Not
|
|
all sell every chemical that you may want for this series. Also, you can
|
|
break the orders up so as not to look suspicious. Lastly, some houses are
|
|
used to selling to individuals, and will provide chemicals in 1 or 4 ounce
|
|
lots, while others prefer to sell to large institutions, and sell their
|
|
wares in 1 or 5 pound jugs. Split up your orders according to the
|
|
quantities of each item you think you will be needing. An ounce of Iodine
|
|
Crystals will cost three or four dollars an ounce, and an ounce bottle of
|
|
iodine is pretty tiny, but it goes a long way. If you had to buy that by
|
|
the pound, you might just want to forget the whole thing.
|
|
|
|
The shipping charges will mostlikely be compunded because of the
|
|
ordering from seprate places, but it is either that or get caught. So it's
|
|
your choice.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Good Stuff
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
When making sugar powder, be sure to get the chemical with the three
|
|
molecules of oxygen in it's formula (K Cl O3) (The formula should be on the
|
|
side of the container. The correct formula is called potassium chloRATE.
|
|
The one NOT to get is potassium chloRIDE, which is basically a dead
|
|
chemical. Potassium chlorate is still used by some farmers and can
|
|
sometimes even be bought at your local drug store. Most drug supply houses
|
|
have it as well. The cost usually varies, but it is a good deal concerning
|
|
its availability since it is easy to make and get and most other explosives
|
|
are not.
|
|
There is only one down side to Sugar Chlorate Powder. The directions
|
|
must be followed EXACTLY! They are not that hard to follow however.
|
|
Unless you think that directions on how to make a cake from a box are
|
|
difficult, you should have very little problem. Otherwise, DON'T TOUCH
|
|
THIS STUFF!
|
|
|
|
Directions
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
You will get a simple step to follow with a little in depth details to
|
|
clear anything coonfusing up.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Buy the correct chemical - use potassium chlorate KClO3.
|
|
|
|
(We already went through that, no need to do it again.)
|
|
|
|
2. Use common, granulated white sugar as the second ingrediant.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. DRY measure the two into equal amounts by volume.
|
|
|
|
When I say DRY, I mean use measuring instruments used in measuring dry
|
|
powders. NOT the measuring cup used to measure liquids. By equal
|
|
volume I mean use: 1 cup of KClO3 for each cup of sugar.
|
|
|
|
4. Sift the KClO3 so that all the lumps are removed or crushed.
|
|
|
|
You can use a screen, like the type in screen doors, to sift the
|
|
powder. Sometimes, if the powder has NO lumps, you can skip this
|
|
step.
|
|
|
|
5. Place the sugar in an old pot. Heat it to 255 degrees Fahrenheit,
|
|
STIRRING CONSTANTLY.
|
|
|
|
Use a simple candy thermometer to tell tempertature. You can get one
|
|
from a supermarket most likely. Or steal one from your chemistry lab.
|
|
MAKE SURE YOU ARE MEASURING IN FAHRENHEIT! Not Centigrade.
|
|
|
|
6. Take the sugar away from the stove burner when it reaches 255 and
|
|
STIR VIGOROUSLY!
|
|
|
|
The stirring is needed to get out all the hot spots in the sugar.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Continue to stir until the melted sugar cools sufficiently to
|
|
comfortably put your finger into the mixture.
|
|
|
|
8. Quickly stir in the KClO3 before the compound cools down and sets up,
|
|
completely mixing in the KClO3.
|
|
|
|
9. Dump the solidifying compoundon a pieceof Saran wrapand flatten out to
|
|
not more that one-half-inch thick.
|
|
|
|
10. Allow the batch to sure overnight (12 hours) in a cool, dry place.
|
|
|
|
A refridgerator is TOO cool and damp. A nice August/September night
|
|
in an open garage in New Jersey is perfect.
|
|
|
|
11. Using a wooden rolling pin or mortor and pestal, crush the frangible
|
|
powder as fine as required for the intended use. Fine is better for
|
|
reloading; coarse is okay for bombs.
|
|
|
|
I'll explain some uses in detail later.
|
|
|
|
12. Sift the powder through a fine scren to grade for particle size.
|
|
|
|
13. Use to wreck havok..er...I mean havoc and hell...
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some Uses in Detail
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
For people that are into guns, you can sieve the very fine particle
|
|
out and use them for reloading ammo. I know people that have loaded it
|
|
into .22 LR cartridges after they had pulled the heads and dumped the
|
|
factory powder charge.
|
|
|
|
The powder is best used for bombs though. Basically because it is not
|
|
to nice on gun barrels.
|
|
|
|
Sugar powder is MATCH-SENSITIVE. I belive that it is also impact
|
|
sensitive. I also suspect that it is CAP-SENSITIVE fro those of you who
|
|
fool around with blasting caps and dynamite.
|
|
|
|
In three-quarter-inch pipes, the sugar does not reach critical mass
|
|
and simply fizzles. When ignighted with a fuze in half-pound quantities in
|
|
one-half-inch or larger pipe bombs, it "barks" nicely, doing a decent
|
|
amount of damage. The best charges are packed in as dense a manner as
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
Many people have many different for the best designed pipe bomb. I'll
|
|
throw my hat into the ring with my favorite design:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2-IN. OR LARGER IRON PIPE WITH THREADED END CAPS

|
|
Another type of fuse to make is the cotton string dipped in a solution
|
|
of sugar powder. It can be subject to flash burns, so it should only be
|
|
used in very long length. Fortunatly, it is cheap and easy to make.
|
|
|
|
The straw design is mch more reliable and predictable than the string
|
|
fuze. Just take a nice fat straw and fill it with the about mixture.
|
|
Varing the amount of sawdust controls the timing of the fuze. Not to
|
|
mention, you can slip ends into each other to further lenthen the time of
|
|
the fuze.
|
|
|
|
The most unusual and most fun thing to do with sugar powder is the ol'
|
|
light bulb trick. First take a simple 60- or 100-watt light bulb. Knock
|
|
out a small chunk of the side using a towel or rag a small ball peen
|
|
hammer. Then fill the bulb with one-quarter to one-half pound of sugar
|
|
powder.
|
|
|
|
When you turn on the light switch, the oxygen exposed elements in the
|
|
bulbs flash, setting off the sugar powder, which thump the room nicely.
|
|
The thump is not TOO powerful however. It doesn't even blow out the
|
|
windows. BUT it does create SO much smoke and confusion that it is well
|
|
worth trying to get the bulb to break corrrectly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
WELL!!! I hope that you have enjoyed our little romp through explosives
