Make flash powder with flint and potassium nitrate

Do you want to make flash powder for your pyrotechnic needs? Well, this video tutorial will show you how to make flash powder with just flint and potassium nitrate.

You'll need to grab a spoon, potassium nitrate, flint, a file, mortar and pedestal, and a pice of paper.

The ratio is one part flint: one part KNO3.

TO make it with magnesium, the ratio will be one part flint: one part KNO3: one part magnesium.

This is great for most pyrotechnics and fireworks. Just see for yourself, watch it explode before your very own eyes.
