Black powder is easily made, it''s just saltpeter, charcoal, and sulfur, mixed in certain proportions, then ground to a specific granular size. As already noted, casting is easily accomplished with a minimum of equipment. Primers now- Personally, no thanks.

With this kit and a ball mill you can make every kind of black powder from superfine meal powder to 2FA lift powder. Be sure you have screens with the right mesh size for the granulation of black powder you want to make. A 100-mesh screen will work for meal while a 4-12 mesh screen will make your lift. If you do not have a mill, and will be

If you ever plan on making this stuff, or black powder, in any quantity greater than a hundred grams, a ball mill is ''da bomb, figuratively. You toss in the raw ingrdients in any form, prilled, chunk, granulated, whatever, turn it on, and hours later you have a starch-fine, intimately mixed powder, ready to be processed.

Homemade Vs. Commercial Black Powder. That’s it, it’s ready to use. This homemade powder does not perform as well as commercially made powder and it is dirtier. The finer you grind the charcoal, the cleaner it will burn though. This mixture is not as dense as commercial powder either, so you will have to load about double by volume.

For those of you who have never heard of a ball mill they are very efficient at pulverizing things into a fine powder. They are often used in chemistry as well as the making of homemade black powder. The basic idea is the material to be turned into powder and a ''media'' are put in a drum and rotated.

Ball mills are a special instrument used to break up hard solids into a fine powder. They are similar to rock tumblers in that the instrument is a rotating container filled with heavy balls to grind the substance into powder. Ceramic material, crystalline compounds, and even some metals can be ground up using a ball mill.

A better way is to mill the powder, which better combines the three ingredients. As described below, I used a rock tumbler as a ball mill to accomplish this. Black powder consists of three primary components, measured by weight: Potassium nitrate (KNO3) – 75% by weight: an oxidizer, the KNO3 supplies oxygen for the reaction. Charcoal – 15%

Even if it did light off, the mill powder burns very slow compared to granulated powder. in the harbor freight ball mill, you would likely get a loud pop as the lid is just held in by friction and then a pretty good fireball and a lot of smoke, but I dont think the pressure could build nearly enough to cause an explosion.

A very usable black powder can be made without any mill, screens, or other fancy equipment. I''ve made it using nothing more than a wooden spoon and a ceramic bowl. It''s not quite as hot, but it works. It will kill a large animal like a deer. The granulating, and screening, mostly just give the powder a more consistent burn rate.

This mill is going to come in really handy for lots of future projects. I hope this page gives helpful ideas to anyone in need of a ball mill. They are quick, easy, and cheap to build yourself.

The tube should need maybe 130 grains of fff or ff black powder. Hope for range maybe 100 yards with streamers connected to launched objects so they can be recovered. Firing will be done with a vent tube running into the powder chamber via light fuze. The tube I have to use as a design is made from ABS plastic which has a metal stand.

If the homemade powder is made for fireworks it is probably much like very fine blasting powder and if that is the case, my vote is "no!" Powders for sporting rifles or shotguns are screened to have a particular grain or granulation sizes. The finer the grains, the faster the powder burns and that creates greater pressures.

On a scale of one to 10, where 1 was the safest and 10 the least safe. Reloading ammunition would be a 1.5. Making your own black powder would be a 1000. Yes 1000. The reason there are no laws on the books in Illinois is that it has not occurred to your state idiots (legislators) that anyone would attempt it.
