- Smoke Bomb by Alpine Hacker:
- This recipe was witten by Alpine Kracker. It originally appeared in
- Phrack #6. But, we thought it was appropriate for this newsletter.
- Ingredients:
- Saltpetre (Potassium Nitrate)
- Sugar
- Alcohol (100% is best, but plain rubbing alcohol will work)
- Gunpowder (or some ground-up rocket engines)
- Matches (Get a box of 50 packs -they can be very useful.)
- Coffee can
- Cigarette
- Directions:
- Combine the sugar and saltpetre in a 3:1 ratio (Sugar:saltpetre) and heat
- over a low flame until the mixture has thoroughly melted together. (It will
- look like sticky white lumps when ready) You need to stir this continually
- while heating, and remove it from the flame at the very first sign of smoke.
- I had a batch go off in my face once, and the workroom was filled with smoke
- for a good half hour. It is easier and safer to work with smaller batches.
- Now, dump all of this "smoke powder" into a coffee can, add some match
- heads, moisten it with a little alcohol, and add gunpowder until all the
- smoke powder is coated. Now tape a cigarette between the match heads in an
- unopened book. Imbed the book into the mixture.
- Light the but, and walk casually away to find a nice alibi within 5 minutes.
- Notes:
- You should be able to find some Saltpeter in a local drug store.
- All of the gunpowder, match heads, and alcohol is simply to insure good
- ignition. You can omit them, but if you have them, mix them in for
- reliability's sake. For the fuse, you can either use the one listed, or
- either some canon fuse, or a rocket igniter and an electrical system.
- A quarter pound of this stuff is supposed to fill a city block. I'm not
- sure if that is accurate, but it sure fills a public bathroom nicely.
-
- Movie Technique:
- Movies use a very simple method to create fog. They get a whole lot of
- liquid nitrogen (that really cold shit) and put it in buckets where they
- want the fog. The liguid nitrogen converts directly to a white fog-like
- gas. You should be able to get liquid nitrogen at any well stocked
- chemistry lab in high school or college.
-
- C & C Hellfire Mix:
- This is one of the kewlest flammable mixtures we know about. It is derived
- from the fact that heated wax and gasoline will form a new substance when
- combined. We call this substance the C & C Hellfire Mix. We originally
- intended to use gun powder instead of the gas, but we've been too lasy to
- get some gun powder. If you replace the gas with gun powder, please tell
- us how it works. C & C Hellfire Mix is basicly just highly flammable wax.
- Ingredients:
- Candle Wax
- Gasoline
- Microwave
- Glass Jar
- Directions:
- Put the candle wax in the jar. Heat the jar in the microwave. It takes me
- about 15 minutes to heat the wax to a liquid state in the microwave. You
- an use a flame to do it faster, but I find the microwave more conenient.
- Then, when the wax is in a liquid state, mix some gasoline in. The exact
- ratio of gas to wax is up to you. Obviously, the more gas you put in, the
- bigger fire you'll get and the less easily it will harden. It depends on
- what you want to do with the Hellfire Mix. Well anyway, stir the mixture
- after you add the gas. Then, do whatever yer gonna do with it.
- Substitutions for the gasoline:
- We assume C & C Hellfire Mix works with just about any flammable substance.
- However, we've only tried it with gas and rubber cement. If you try it with
- other substances please let us know. Most liquids should work just like
- gas though. Rubber cement is one of the more interesting combinations.
- It creates a sticky flammble wax. However, it doesn't compare to gas for
- flammability.
- Uses for C & C Hellfire Mix:
- Wicks - make wicks with it. Get a string and make some Hellfire Mix. When
- the mixture is still liquid, dip the string in. The string will become
- coated with the mixture. Only one or two dips though, it doesn't work well
- with more. For this use, there should be a high gas to wax ratio.
- Explosive Candles - Yes, you can make candles out of C & C Hellfire Mix.
- Give them to your favorite relatives as gifts. Start out just like wicks,
- but dip the string in a lot more. For this use, your gonna need a tall
- thin pot. This will allow you to keep the candle straight. You may need
- to keep the mix warm so it doesn't turn to a solid on you.
- Sterno substitute - C & C Hellfire Mix will even replace sterno. Take a
- used sterno can (or some other can) and pour the Hellfire Mix into it.
- Then, let the mix cool. It should form a solid substance. When you try
- to light it, it may take a second but after that stand back.
- Molotov Cocktails - Can you replace the gasoline in Molotovs with C & C
- Hellfire Mix? Well, sorta. It won't explode as cool and it might cool to
- a solid before you throw it. And, it's more expensive and harder to get
- than gasoline. But, if you want to make a Molotov with Hellfire Mix go
- ahead. Just don't blame us if it sucks.

- Pin the Rocket on the Moron:
- On the lighter side, here's a fun little game for all of you to play.
- Please rememeber, if you get hurt it ain't our fault. Okay, now that we
- warned you here's the game.
- Object:
- Shoot little rockets at a moron running around in a field (or forest or
- swamp or nuclear waste dump.) Whenever someone hits him, he loses.
- Whenever he successfully dodges a rocket, he wins. But, winning doesn't
- mean shit.
- Materials:
- 1 metal pipe
- 1 lighter
- lot of little rockets
- Directions:
- You can get about six little rockets from one firework if you buy the right
- one. Put the rockets in the pipe (which is on the aimer's shoulder.) Then,
- have the ignitor (the person behind the aimer) light the rockeet with the
- lighter. It should come shooting out of the pipe.
- Notes:
- Yes believe it or not, this game HAS been tested. Of course, the moron
- running around in the field didn't really consent, but that doesn't matter.
