I'm working on a training and would like to use the Black Snake demo as a protocol example. I don't intend to actually do the demo for this training. There are two versions ' one uses sulfuric acid and sugar and the other uses baking soda, sugar, and an accelerant. I have a write up for the H2SO4/sugar version but not for the baking soda version. Poking around online sent me to videos but no real useful documentation of the procedure for the baking soda version.
Does anyone have a write-up they're willing to share or can point me to one?
Thanks,
Debbie
