Yeah! 50-50 mix of aluminum dust and iron oxide (rust purified by heating
it up in an iron skillet) ignited with a sparkler. Don;t ask me how, but I
know for a fact that it will burn all the way thru a Cummins diesel engine
block (18-wheeler not Ram) and the concrete slab the truck's sitting on.
Great fun :-)
