I am interested in learning the ingreidients for the 'rocks' that are
in your basic low end 'snap & pops'. These are what appears to be
several 'rocks' contained inside of a piece of tissue paper, (The
type used for wrapping gifts). You thro this 'package' against a hard
surface and it explodes with a loud pop.

     Any information on the formulation of this item would be greatly
appreacitated. Thanks!

still require the ingriedients for a report I am doing for school. It
is due in a couple of weeks and I have no real clue. Please help, oh
and by the way... if I wanted to buy the things I can do that myself
just around the corner, but thanks for the offers.

The following is for informational purposes only and I do not
advocate the manufacture or use of salutes. The construction and or
use of salutes as listed below are considered a felony in the United
States of America. And could result in arrest, fines and or extreme
injury or death.

That said the first thing you need to know is that all formulas are
by weight not volume and will not work properly unless they are
measured correctly.

Flash Powder

Potassium perchlorate                      65-70%
Aluminum powder (400 mesh)        rest(up to 100%)
Larger percentage of aluminum will result in a stronger flash.
Use the diaper or newspaper method for mixing your two ingredients.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO GRIND TOGETHER OR USE A TUMBLER TO MIX
INGREDENTS!!! Please keep in mind that 20 grams or more of mixed
component can explode with out containment.
After mixing well, plug one end of paper tube with paper plug (paper
towel with white glue works well) DO NOT USE HOT GLUE PLUGS, they
will not break up and will act as a projectile with some amazing
ranges. Almost any paper tubing will work. Pant hanger tubing works
very well, even used firework tubes such as Saturn Missile Battery
tubes work well and they have the added advantage of being plugged on
one end. Before filling drill a small hole in side of tube and insert
fuse. A small dad of hot glue will hold fuse in place. Fill tube
aprox.1/2 to � full. DO NOT COMPRESS MIXTURE. Plug open end with
paper plug as before. Let dry completely.
Do not store these for any length of time and only make enough
mixture to complete what you are working on at the time.
Start out making small salutes and work your way up to larger
salutes. They seem to gain in strength expotentionaly. 1" long tubes
are a good starting point and may be all the power you want. These
are very powerful and very bright. They can easily take off a few
fingers and most likely turn your hand into a useless lump of
hamburger if they where to detonate while holding one.
So be careful, Never hold one in your to light it and have fun.

The Snap and Pops you refere to use a type of contact explosive. I do
not remember what it is called but I am sure I could find out. The
rocks are just sand grains and they are there to provide the hammer
to the anvil so to speak.

j_yeardly

several cocktales not to try

Unstable Explosives
Mix solid Nitric Iodine with househould ammonia. Wait overnight and
then pour off the liquid. You will be left with a muddy substance.
Let this dry till it hardens.  Now throw it at something!!!!

better is this type of
Touch Explosives
This is sort of a mild explosive, but it can be quite dangerous in
large quantities. To make touch explosive (such as that found in a
snap-n-pop, but more powerful), use this recipe:

- Mix iodine crystals into ammonia until the iodine crystals will
not dissolve into the ammonia anymore. Pour off the excess ammonia
and dry out the crystals on a baking sheet the same way as you
dried the thermite (in other words, just let it sit overnight!).

- Be careful now because these crystals are now your touch
explosive. Carefully wrap a bunch in paper (I mean carefully!
Friction sets 'em off!) and throw them around.. pretty loud, huh?
They are fun to put on someone's chair. Add a small fish sinker to
them and they can be thrown a long distance (good for crowds,
football games, concerts, etc.) Have fun!

this is for info only and I am not responcible for what anyone dose
with it

Subject: advanced, and begginer fireworks

pyroweasel16

Over the years i have collected a decent amount of information on
how to make fireworks. i will give you a sample rite now, but to see
my full collection of information, insert one of the following web
address into your browser's address bar:

http://pyroweasel.simplehost.com
or
http://free.hostdepartment.com/p/pyroweasel/

Here is the sample:

Cherry bombs

To make a cherry bomb you will need the following:

2 paper end caps
Flash Powder, or black powder ( flash powder works the best but may
be hard to obtain, black powder gives a nice bang but not as good as
Flash powder)
Saw Dust
Hard and fast drying resin
Red paint
Fuse

Start by filling one of the two end caps up with flash powder and
putting a beading of glue around the side of that end cap, now place
the second end cap over that one and leave to dry. Now mix some fast
drying epoxy glue up with some sad dust and put a thick layer of
this mix all over the joined end caps evenly. Now you can place it
tumbling in a ball mill until its is all smooth and round or roll it
about in a bowl of saw dust and even it off with your hands. Once
you have done that you can then leave it to dry. When dry smear
another thinner layer of fast drying epoxy glue and saw dust over
the ball, then place it in the bowl of saw dust and leave it to dry
again. Once dry you should GENTLY AND SLOWLY drill a hole in the
ball until it gets to the flash powder in the center, IF YOU DON'T
DRILL SLOWLY IT WILL CAUSE MORE HEAT AND FRICTION AND MAY EXPLODE.
Once the hole has been drilled simply stick a piece of visco fuse in
the hole until it is touching the flash powder in the center. Now
secure the glue by putting glue around the visco fuse where it meets
the top of the hole. Now you can either leave it how it is or paint
it red so it looks more like a real cherry bomb. When everything is
dry place on the floor and light fuse then retreat to about 20
meters away. This firecracker causes a lot of shrapnel and could
seriously injure you.

you should use a hot plate and slowly melt them together, if u go
too fast, it'll get black and burn and make a huge mess.

Hi and Happy Turkey Day,

I'm a photographer in OKC,OK and have published a 2004 fireworks
calendar commemorating the fireworks display at our State Capitol's
dome dedication.

Please go to the photo page to view pics of the calendar cover, the
March photo and the Sept. photo. The cover is the July photo. I have
also posted a flyer with ordering instructions. The calendar costs
US$10.95 with $2.00 shipping.

I'm very proud of my calendar and want to get the word out to other
fireworks lovers.

Thanks, Ed

people that have made them.
Basically I have made a tubing out of paper from a grocery bag and
it is really solid.  I have a wick and capped ends.  My main
question is the powder.  I went to the gun store today and bought
some propultion powder.  Will this work for an explosion or should I
