50AE Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 but parlon is really cheap wonder what he would do for 1kg Yeah, but you can't buy it locally and he can't order online, he was very happy
Ventsi Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Just played a 3 and a half hour game of "cops and figitives" last night. 3 rounds , three cities ,around 50 people. About 9mi in all. Really fun but now I'm so sore I can barely walk! KruseMissile: How'd you get tooling so cheap? The star plate in specific? I don't know anyone that sells stuff so cheap, can you tell me who you bought it from?

Get from one area of town to the other without being caught by the chase team?

Get from one area of town to the other without being caught by the chase team? Exactly , people with cars trying to catch people on foot that are trying to get from one place to another, at 12 at night. Folks kept asking us what we were doing : "Uhmm, its a midnight jogging exercise.". Its really fun but kindof hard to organize.

flying fish Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Youch! That is rough. Cast & crutches for a while? Yet another "if it weren't for that damned dog" stories to add to the book. My uncle was walking a very hyper-active dog in icy conditions once...you can probably guess that didn't end well. But are you sure it isn't the right thread? Maybe if they've been giving you large doses of pain relievers...
TheEskimo Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Wheeeeee....PyrOrgasm!!All my stuff came today, except for the KNO3 and the CuO(II), which is coming in a different order. HOORAY!!!
Ventsi Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 Me and my friend just finished some fresh cooked YellowFin Ahi Tuna last night when we heard a BANG followed by another 24 of them. My first thought was "damn kewls" since there have been quite a few good bangs around his neighborhoood. Turned out it was a 25 shot 3/4" cake. Pisses me off that they set off next to a whole bunch of cars when there was a park 100 yrds away. Loosers weepers, finders keepers.
TheEskimo Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 I like tuna....Anyways...the KNO3 and the CuO(II) arrived today. Happiness.
TrueBluePyro Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Well, I have a little over 3 weeks untill I go home agian and next week from mon-fri, I will be at a school camp, which is alright, but I would rather finish my assignments and stuff, cause they are like al due, just as we get back from camp. Anyway, While im at school I like to stock on chemicals and get new ones, so that when I get home I have a heap of parces waiting and I can try something new. I have had fun ordering stuff this time , got heaps of stuff and new 'multi use pumps' to make crossettes/cavity cometes/and normal comets, I got 3/4" and 1.75", well havent got them yet, but they will be posted soon enough. Got a few more chems and metas as well, the holidays are going to be full of fun....and alot of work to pay it all off, lol, so worth it all.
scarbelly Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 the alder charcoal from customcharcoal is finally on the way! I'm excited, and I'm planning on picking up a motor or two if possible tomorrow for my ball mill as well.
Ventsi Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 (edited) Made some screens today, and bought a bucket screen for two bucks. And a bunch of 2" can casings and caps: Edited September 2, 2009 by Ventsi
JrayJ Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 I had put pyro on hold for awhile as I ran out of kno3,Just bought 50 pounds of saltpeter from a supply house in seguin, texas.... YYYYYYYIIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!as a sidenote it's been dyed blue, will this have any affect on performance? and yes it's kno3, 13 - 0 - 44
Ralph Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 time to get recrystalising who knows what it is you wouldnt want it to be incompatible with anything
Swede Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Weird - why would it be blue? Intentional dye for identification? Cu?
JrayJ Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Weird - why would it be blue? Intentional dye for identification? Cu?It's sold as a "Soluble" fertilizer so my only guesse would be that it helps determine it's concentration when dissolved in water.... Oh well, it's not like my gunpowder will be blue after adding the charcoal.
flying fish Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I'm loving "ruby red" made with -325 MgAl. It burns hilariously fast...the heavily primed light-grid stars could easily be used in a 3"er and not have any fear of them burning to the ground. Not that you could even fit many of these in a 3"er...
TheSidewinder Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 And the "Emerald Green" companion formula is every bit as good. Give it a try.
Swede Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 Toys enroute - really specialized toys. An L-shaped teflon immersion heater, NIB, cheap.http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/7/6/7/0/1/6/webimg/289690742_tp.jpg A 25 foot coil of PFA-resin (teflon) tube, thanks to an APC member.

Miech Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 Yessss, sound works again on my laptop. Ndiswrapper is your friend if you hate Windouchebag and want to run linux .
crazyboy25 Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 $19 for 2.5 liters of 70% nitric! Score! *Order placed*
Seymour Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 $19 for 2.5 liters of 70% nitric! Score! When I was 15 I picked up twenty litres of the 70% for a satisfactory NZ $32. In USD that would be about $20. And I'm 20, this is recent history. I paid cash, bought it over the counter, and got just over 80kg of other cheap chemicals too. That was indeed a day of happiness.
TheEskimo Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 Hooray...Wendesday is an XC meet day, so easy practice tomorrow. And after every meet, we go to Grotto's Pizza; We get a good deal there for the team. All you can eat pizza and soda for 7 bucks a person. Hooray!!
