I looked at the cost analysis of this guy and $7/motor, he's way over that,
not to mention risking life and limb.
That's what I call "pseudo-science" :-)

Yes, and sugar is a shitty fuel anyhow and sugar motors generally suck. I
see some limited success but I have yet to see something work that doesn't
cost as much as AP and if it is such a great idea why doesn't NASA use it.
Lots of reasons.
I would probably have more fun throwing dollar bills out the window on
highway 101 ...
Rick and those guys have been blowing shit up for years and every year
there is some breakthrough and then boom, its a nice display of color and
brilliant light and that's about it.

Hi, I was thinking of making some potassium nitrate / sugar motors. I
haven't done it before so I was wondering if you have any advice on how not
to blow myself up or any California laws I should be aware of
thanks in advance
