shaving a yak by flipping through old make magazines and came across the dog-eared article on making smoke bombs and remembered in was going to make odin a kit for his birthday but couldn’t find any potassium nitrate locally. but it’d make a great christmas gift, right? i think lighting professional grade colored smoke bombs off the treehouse deck is something that needs happen. and it looks like i can get potassium nitrate here by christmas!

we’ll just need to try and heed mark frauenfelder’s advice to not make them in the kitchen.
