Aluminium powder is often on Trademe too. Or just buy it from a paint supplier.

STMPRO.co.nz in Wellington has it as well. They sell special effects stuff.

The only ingrediant requiring a 'ticket' is the gun and ammo to set it off.

Buy that stuff online and you WILL end up on a watchlist.

All of it or just some of it, I've been using aluminium powder as a filler in epoxy for reshaping some ports in a 2 stroke and bedding a rifle.....

Nitrates.

6th form chemistry. No need to get upset about it.

There's about 10,000 videos on it on youtube anyway.

Hydroponic stores are good because they never ask questions about why you want it.

Rubbish. On a watchlist for buying fertilizer?

I know a guy whose online activities were being watched closely, triggered by the fact that he bought a small quantity of Potassium Nitrate on Trademe. His motives were legit, and nothing came of it. From memory those auctions were being watched because it COULD be used for making meth or something.

Just look at what Timothy McVeigh did with "some fertiliser".

How did you know his online activities were being monitored?

A friend of his was involved in the monitoring. When his details were flagged as a person of interest, the friend notified him.

I wasn't involved in any way.

For a while Mitre10 wanted photo ID and the signing of a declaration form before they would sell acetone, apparently that is used in some drug making as well.

How long ago was that ? I use a shitload of acetone for cleaning for degreasing rifle barrels and other parts prior to bluing and have never had to sign a declaration at Mitre 10 or Bunnings

Does your friend regularly tip off other friends who are under investigation?

Sounds like corruption to me.

Friend of a friend. Maybe. I don't think my friend was notified until after he was cleared. We're heading off on a tangent to a tangent here...
