Step 4IGNITE
now we're ready to ignite.
once its been transported to were ever you want to take it, rip the tin foil off. then grab a sparkler and cut about 5cm (2 inches) off. we use this as the ignition. sparklers are better than magnesium as they can be lite with a lighter not a bloody blow torch!!
pop the sparkler on top of the can, making sure it has good contact with the thermate, or pop it in the hole you made earlier. light the bastard and walk away
WARNING!!
as noted in the comments, barium nitrate gives off toxic chemicals when the mixture is drying or ignited!!!
NOTE.
its THERMATE not THERMITE, there diffrent, thermite is iron oxide and aluminum, thermate has iron oxide, aluiminum, baruim nitrate, sulfur and is binded together.
