Indeed, the home and kitchen stuff is far worse than the high grade thermite.
I still want to make the paint that is capable of burning through steel.

This sub is also partially educational, or just to fascinate people.
Feel free to post stuff that you think is great, or that might spawn an interesting discussion.

If you have some pictures of your thermite reactions, it would be great if you posted some of your work to /s/chemistry.
Welding tungsten? Sounds great! Did you make heat-resistant burners or something?
