1. Fire Tricks


We can start right off the bat with fire tricks. Right now, I want you to
go find a few items you'll have around your house and play with them. Find
out if they're flammable or not, and see if you can do simple things with
them (like making a blow torch out of a hair spray bottle, making a simple
Molotov cocktail out of a flammable aftershave flask).
I suggest you to do these outside, and make the results BIG.
If that means setting your neighbors fence on fire, so be it (but this
early i suggest you put it out before they notice). The Molotov cocktail
out of aftershave lotion is one of my favorite beginning anarchy tricks.
Dont forget normal items you wouldnt suspect. Have an extra glide on
deodorant? light it up and throw it against the wood pile!
First start off with some simple chemicals and then start doing stuff with
after shave, deodorant and such. Suggested chemicals: Rubbing Alcohol,
Glycerin, and assorted kitchen foods. Then go onto perfumes, nasal
medicines, and aerosols. Its all right if you go too big (one person I know
accidently torched his tree. Took him 10 minutes to get it out. Luckily his
mother didnt notice even though the rest of the neighborhood did).


Okay, lets get down to some more basic stuff. This isn't really
necessary except if you are heavily into demolitions. Then you
might want to memorize it, but it's nothing big. These are three
ways to start a small chemical fire. The chemicals are available
from a chemistry supply, or a # of other places. Try your local
drug store. (Thanks to Zaphod Beeblebrox)

1) Take a few crystals of chromic anhydride and drop on some ethyl alcohol.
It will make a small harmless flame instantly.
2) Next, Mix 4 parts ammonium chloride, 1 part ammonium nitrate, 4 parts
powdered zinc (mix by wieght). Drop some water on it and stand back. See as
it makes pretty lights.
3) Place a small pile of sodium on the ground outside, and drop water on it,
only a drop or two. Watch it make a nice waterproof campfire.
