    Main charge question

    After we get out of this mess we're in, maybe someone will try what I said I saw and report back. Unless the chemistry has changed it's going to explode. The can used in the demo was an old, red metal one.

    Another Possible Scammer

    One thing I can say is as I've grown older and have less to lose, those who would wrong me have a lot more to worry about. I don't forgive, or forget.

    making a grease hole in a Kibler SMR

    A little dark- stained Acraglas will hide anything in the bottom of a grease hole, and provide a bit of a seal also.
