We used to play with explosives...originally it was the heads of safety matches carefully broken off the stick and then packed into a nut with a bolt in each side. Now throw it up in the air and wait for the bang when it hits the ground.
We graduated to sugar/weedkiller and Jetex fuse (wonderful stuff that) packed a small car extinguisher with it, lit the fuse and ran like f^&%.....all we ever found was the base of the extinguisher 4 inches underground.

Ahh, yes. Used to scour the garden centres for Potassium Nitrate. Then discovered a mate's dad ran a nurseries. :y

A brave man talking about making explosives, have you seen the news recently ::) Bet armed response are on their way as we speak, if not they should be. How can you sit on the net and describe how to make such a thing....................No further comment.
