Yeah, for the record, I know I need help, and I'm am getting it, but also keep in mind that I want to film this, in which case you can watch a guy run through a flaming unicycle course. Also I'm starting a unicycle club at school, particularly to get some sports going. Unicycle basketball, hockey, jousting, etc.

{bleep} the track. Just set your unicycle on fire and ride around a lot. Maybe take a jump or two.

Maybe. I'll consider it if I can get some fire-proof pants. And maybe a fire-proof unicycle.

This seems like one of those things that you'll see in a year or two on TLC during "What were you Thinking?" or something of the sort.

If you are going to attempt this, please wear some sort if fire protection, and an alcohol fire or something that burns very cool. I've actually lit (It's a fun little sport) my fingers on fire by dipping them in rubbing alcohol, and you can keep it going about 10 seconds before you start to feel anything. However, I have yet to get something taht burns much past that. I made a webcam video of it. It's neato, i'll get it when I feel like it.

I actually might be able to supply thee with stuff to make the fire have licks of green :wink: . Copper shavings my man, I can supply you with lots and lots of copper shavings, mix them into the flamable substance so that when the stuff goes down, there's an even distribution of it throughout the substance, if you're using powder of some sort, this will be less of a problem, if you use alcohol, mix it up and pour immediately so the shavings can't settle at the bottom...

Actually, for the most part copper burns orange. At least I think. If you heat it up enough if burns green. If you want a cool coloured flame, get your hands on some strontium. That stuff has the 1337357 flame colour in the world.

It's almost spring, which means it's almost time for me to continue my chemical exploits! I think I have some gunpowder in my workshop...maybe I should contain it a bit...

I guarantee you fanboy, I am more of a pyro than you. I have a chemical rack. I have potassium nitrate that's beaded, ground, and purified. I have granular carbon and carbon dust. magnesium filings, sulfur, and ground aluminum. and some homemade rust.

Speaking of which, has anybody made thermite and got it to work? I can't get my aluminum fine enough, and then I ahd to stop for winter on account of the steam explosions that would occur from the molten iron that would be produced. I love my pyrotechnics! I think my next thing will be making some balck cats with my extra gunpowder from last year that i made.
