Rogue Chemist Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 August 1. To make this a less useless post. To be honest, I was not happy to find this, but it is so beautiful.
Mumbles Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Mmmmmmm, arsenic trichloride, yummy. Makes you just want to lick the bottle, doesn't it?
TheSidewinder Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Ooooooo! What pretty crystals! I'll bet they're yummy. Those would be (nearly pure?) Arsenic crystals, yes? M
brainfever Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Or an aluminium/arsenic complex salt if the bottle cap was made out of Al. I've seen bottles containing other products do this to Al bottle caps aswell, and it's usually the result of the cap lining getting damaged and the product reacting up all the Al.
Pretty green flame Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Ahh....i am quite happy today. I have started work on my visco machine with my father and with his help i was able to finish my 3" 4 shot mortar rack. Next on the agenda is a 2" 12 (4 shots per row) shot angled finale rack. I was also able to cook some charcoal, life is good Here's a pic of the rack with mortars in it.http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a374/AVP2/Mortarrack.jpg
BigBang Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Nice rack, lol. That sounds weird saying to a guy (and showing such immaturity ) I spose this week has been a happy one, first V for Vendetta came out, and now I finally found Baqauacil. I have been looking for it for quite some time (steaming down 3% to only get ~15% sucks) and now I found it. It turns out that the only place that even carries baquacil products is only 3 blocks from my apartment Best of all, only $15 for a gallon. I would gladly pay 50 or more, but luckily, I don't need to.
Swany Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 I recieved a letter from a junior hockey team asking me to go try out for them. They are a state over, and it would require me to live there, and I was away when the tryouts took place, but I still think thats pretty wicked cool. At the risk of being egotistical, most of the players are 18-21 or so, and I am 15 at the moment. It was only junior B, but if I get an offer for junior A later on, I will take it up. This would allow me to go to UW madison or some other D1 hockey school potentially later in life. Hard work pays off, I guess. Oh, and I came home to a dewar full of liquid nitrogen... really doesn't get any better.
ULTRABUF Posted August 14, 2006 Posted August 14, 2006 I'm happy because I got a few things from the hardware store today, I finished my condenser with water pump thing, I got a couple orders on the way, and Im nearly done with the crossette pump I'm attempting to make.
DeAdFX Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 I just made some copper tartrate and it is an awesome blue fuel!! I love it. To bad cream of tartar coosts so damn much

So far, the best blue I've used comes from AP and CuBz (82:18).
DeAdFX Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Thanks for the sources but I already have a local source .Anywho if you are curious about trying this as a copper souce I recommend doing a displacement reaction with Copper Sulfate[easily found soluble copper salt]. http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/358/com...ion2pic1bl1.jpg A really shity picture but that si all I have at the moment[more info can be found in the pyro compisitions thread] deadfx ammonium perchlorate blues...
optimus Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 HM Revenue and Customs just sent me a letter informing me I've paid them £1,411.13 too much in income tax! Canon 5D world here I come!

Mumbles Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 This is more just a fun story than anything. So my friend never drank in high school. He never really came out with us after we did start drinking either. So anyway long story short, some things happened and he is now living with us. We're at a party the other night and I see him drinking a beer which is cool to finally see. We get back to the place and start playing halo, which turns into drinking halo. 4 drinks for 1st, 3 for 2nd and so on down. Well, he is really good at halo so really drinks a lot. Then he moves from rum and coke to straight curacao(don't ask me why). We ended up making him drink so much he threw up. That is the high light of my week. In other happy news, I have over 2,500 lbs of chems now and am going to make twice as much money this week than I did all summer working at my shitty job.
dragonman586 Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Whoooo I got my hsiny new alienware laptop recently. Buying this thing made me busting my ass at that crappy Ruby Tuesday!
Pretty green flame Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 You'll see why i'm happy right now http://www.zippyvideos.com/2865230366027146/firing_box_01/ What do you think
pyrochris Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 Im very happy as well, tomorrow im buying another 1967 chevy camaro in almost mint condition. my week cant get any better than this!!!
pa_pyro Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Very happy! The pot. perchlorate and some tubes, shells, A very nice ballmill and some various types of fuse came today that I ordered from a very nice member of this forum.(Mr.pyro)I haven't had perchlorate in a good while and don't have the right anodes or cathodes to produce it.
weknowpyro Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 It was good today, made abit more HNO3 than i had already. Although it is a small amount, i'm pretty pleased as i only left the mix for 3 hours in the hot water bath.
_DB_ Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 I am extremely happy and shocked right now. Some friends and I from various towns founded this filming/stunt group last year and made a MySpace for it. We've filmed various stunts, pranks, and skits since then and posted the videos on MySpace. We've gained a lot of fame through out the county since then. Well today during school my friend recieves a call during class, but of course he doesn't answer it since phones are forbidden in class. He just lets it vibrate away. Later during lunch he checks his voicemail to see who called. It was some representative from Spike TV who wants to use some of our footage in some new upcoming show! It just doesn't seem real! So after school my friend calls this guy up and has a chat. We also looked the guy up online and he is the real deal. I'm just in total shock..... I never thought we'd ever be a part of a national TV show for doing and filming the immature things we have in the past year. It's just INSANE! This weekend we are going to film some more and compose a DVD to send to Spike TV on Monday. I have no clue how far this is going to go, but I'm really excited to find out!!
ewest Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 Man DB, that's sweet, but don't forget about all us little people when you guys make it big. As for me, I'm happy today because I just dropped a check in the mail for a fancy new Hobby Fireworks star roller. So no more pumping hundreds of stars or trying to make star plates for me. I'll be rolling my butt off for a while. Only thing that scares me is his description says you can roll up to 10-15lbs per hour.......I don't have 10-15lbs of any type of chemicals right now, I guess I'll have to stock up! LOL but you gotta do what you gotta do.
psymon Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 The wife gave birth to my perfect baby girl at the end of September... 10lbs 2oz. Nothing else can beat this...
pa_pyro Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 "Mumbles ays to Ozzy" Say why your happy and don't be a PW. The new smoke formula I found worked very well. It's a kno3 wax mix but made a bit differently. The ratio is 6/4/4 kno3 sugar and wax. The only difference is that you first melt the wax and then add the dry mix too the liquid wax. A 14 gram device I made earlier put out a ton of smoke. I just found my new smoke formula, and because it stays moldable for a good while after mixing it'll make great smoke stars. Just be sure to prime the mix.
jacob Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 i'm happy that i made an order with canonfuse a few days ago,and i just found out that my dad is bringing home a good scale for me.but i have to pay him 35 bucks for it. yay!
