With KNO3 and sugar.Put them in to a ball mill.The engine is small PVC pipe.You know tha rest of it..right?

Well what are the mesurements of the KNO4 and sugar?

Rambo · Sun Mar 26, 2006 3:06 pm

I use sugar powder and KNO3 1/1.2 for the volume.It's not very important.The ratio of the weight should be KNO3 to sugar 5/1.

I have alwase hurd to use a 60/40 ratio 40 being sugar. I have made them and they work well. They burn very hot. Lots of flames.
