does anyone know the potassium permanganate to sugar ratio? i'm guessing it to be 50-50 maybe 70-30. i just came across this genius site www.cannonfuse.com which sells like M-80 (and bigger) tubes, tube plugs, and of course cannon fuse. this years 4th was simply too great and the excitement just won't leave me  :p i must have more! also if you know of any other cheap powder remedies please share your knowledge.

I wouldnt do that. Its mangenate 7 and glycerine and just pour the glycerine on the top.... but its unpredictable and volitile+ not that powerful

Much better and safer is potassium chlorate (or nitrate) and sugar- thats rocket fuel and needs igniting

also black powderis gunpowder really nto this sugar mixes and thats made from potassium nitrate, charcoal and sulpher....

Ive done the rocket fuel one it blew a broekn ps2 to pieces with the top half endign up 30 feet away

mangenates only good for igniting thermite and its horrible unpredictable...

Oh, dude if you have so many problems with explosives in USA, just come to argentina, where nothing is regulated.
i'm sure if you build a HUGE box of fireworks and show it to a cop, he will even light it up!
