darcey Frequent Poster	posted October 10, 1999 01:02 AM Would the soild fuel from model rocket engines be ok to subitute for the double base smokeless powder?? if so would you mix it with a solvent and then add the AP?? would this work??
nbk2000 Moderator	posted October 10, 1999 02:29 AM Model rockets use a black powder type fuel. No nitrocellulose. So it won't gel into a plastic mass like double base will. Just make a black muss. ------------------ "The knowledge that they fear is a weapon to be used against them." www.50megs.com/nbk2000

nbk2000 Moderator	posted October 10, 1999 10:40 AM It would stick together, but it would still not be an explosive like AP putty with NC. ------------------ "The knowledge that they fear is a weapon to be used against them." www.50megs.com/nbk2000
