Supplying reaction with oxygen [Help]


Trying to make my first boom, figured I would start with powdered potassium nitrate and something else, my only question is there anything I can add to make it react faster/ make a bigger boom?

If you have to ask such a simple question in no way should you be playing with this stuff and start to do a crap load more learning!

You have to earn it by educating your self on the basics. This is for YOUR safety and those around you.

In the EM field your first mistake tends to be your last, and if lucky just maimed for life!
