- Demoltion Article #2
- By: King Arthur
-
-
- I have decided to skip the article on mercury fluminate for
- a while and get right into the dynamite article.
-
- Dynamite is nothing more than just nitroglycerin and a
- stablizing agent to make it much safer to use. For the sake of
- saving time, I will abbreviate nitroglycerin with a plain NG.
- The numbers are percentages, be sure to mix these carefully and
- be sure to use the exact amounts. These percentages are in
- weight ratio, not volume.
