-= How to Get Black Powder Easily (or Free) =-
|
|
|
|
This is another quick little file, this time on how to get Black
|
|
Powder (Gun Powder) without paying much, if anything...
|
|
|
|
Materials :
|
|
|
|
Five Fingers and a Pocket :)
|
|
Aluminum Foil
|
|
Hammer (any will do, but a rounded off one is better)
|
|
coffee can or glass jar
|
|
funnel (optional, but preferred)
|
|
|
|
|
|
What to do:
|
|
|
|
The best source for Black Powder is in fact Model Rocket Engines.
|
|
They can be found at any Hobby Store, or in fact some Toy Stores such as Toys
|
|
'R' Us. The price is usually around $3.95-$5.50, depending on the size of the
|
|
engine. The best engines to get are Size 'D' because they are the biggest,
|
|
and therefore hold the most Black Powder. Buy them or Five Finger them, it's
|
|
up to you, and how much you're willing to risk or spend...
|
|
|
|
Take the engines home (they usually come in paks of 3) and open them
|
|
up. Along with the enigines you'll usually find a few twists of wire with a
|
|
small black substance in the middle. SAVE THESE. They are ignighters, you
|
|
just stick them inside the hole in the middle off the engine and hook a 9volt
|
|
battery onto it. They are excellent for making bombs, you just add some wire
|
|
extentions in between the ignighter and the 9volt.
|
|
|
|
Open up the Aluminum Foil and roll out about two feet. Fold it in
|
|
half and then fourths. Place it on the ground (preferrably concrete). Place
|
|
the Engine on the groundand turn up one side of the foil, to form a 'wall'.
|
|
Holding one end of the engine proceed to hammer the other end moving slowly
|
|
towards your hand. NOTE : THIS WILL NOT CAUSE THE ENGINE TO EXPLODE. The
|
|
'wall' that you made will keep anything from coming out the side and getting
|
|
lost. Every once in a while shake the rocket out over the aluminum foil.
|
|
The first thing that will come out is some white powder, which you should
|
|
just throw out. It's usless and won't burn. If you see some light grey
|
|
powder, save it, it's even better than black. Eventually you'll get to the
|
|
Black Powder. Shake it all out onto the Aluminum Foil. You might want to
|
|
hammer some of the larger pieces down so that they fit into the funnel.
|
|
Place the Funnel over the opening of either the coffee can or glass jar
|
|
(depending on how much Powder you want). Crease the Foil in half, (so that
|
|
it makes it easier to pour the power out) and pour everything into the
|
|
container.
|
|
|
|
You can repeat the process over and over again, but it's a good idea
|
|
to change the foil every 5 or 6 engines, since all of that hammering tends
|
|
to put holes into it. When you're all done, throw the foil out, and just
|
|
sweep away anything that may be left behind.
